Hotels near Soalara, Anakao

Really cool place. Nice, friendly staff. Awesome ocean right in front. I recommend a lot.

The best part of the trip was the amazing tour of Jeanto. He guided us for an entire day with a lot of passion about everything he knows about the area. He is an expert in the flora and fauna of the place and loves telling about it and he is able to combine this with many jokes and laughes that brighten up your entire day!

comfortable bed, clean. the view is breathtaking. Bungalows located right on the beach. Very good food. Very nice, helpful and professional staff. The receptionist speaks very good English.

Great stylish home, magnifieke view and pool

This is the best place to stay in Anakao. Unlike many travellers, we were coming not after long auto trip from Antananarivo, flying to Toliara instead. So we were not tired and open to everything. This place has amazing relaxing vibe, with everything very well-thought and designed to bring privacy, tranquility and sense of being at the immaculate nature beach part of Madagascar. The other properties at Anakao are too close to the boat arriving site and local village that is very nice to visit and might be eat/drink at local restaurants, but missing the real beach feeling. La Dune des Songes is 20 mins walk away from all that, with the porter guys carrying your luggage. Sea view and sound of waves is just great to get that tropic feeling, the beachfront villa where we were staying in was very comfortable, clean and beautiful. You can see both sunset (sea view) and sunrise (bush view) from your villa, choosing between sofa, hammock, sun lounges or your own bar deck with bar chairs. Food is chef-grade, very exquisite and diverse, also the size of the meals are enough even if you are hungry. You have some choice like fish/meat/veg but you don’t need to think much and this adds to the overall relaxation. Amandine the owner and her staff are super-friendly and ready to do everything necessary to make your stay great. We had terrific boat trip to see the whales and visiting the perfect white sand turquoise sea Nosy Ve onboard of local pirogue boat with motor. Chef was coming with us to prepare the lunch (salad, grilled fish and vegetables with rice), and the sailor guys were very professional, bringing us to see some 5 whales coming out of the water and later to the reef for snorkelling. The way back was under the sail. One more thing to mention are great bar cocktails and decent wine selection.

Excellent attention from the owner and the staff, all our wishes were fulfilled (even the unspoken ones - amazing!). Perfect help with the organization of tours and transportation. Great food, truly awesome location right on the beach, we enjoyed your meals watching the waves and the sunset :) Highly recommended!
