Alaotra Mangoro accommodation from NZ$45

The staff was extremely accommodating at this lovely, off the road resort. Peace and quiet can be assured!

We stayed in March 2026. Beautiful property. The room was spacious and well appointed. We had to switch room bc the light over the mirror didn't work, room safe wouldn't open, the shower was very slow, and the soap/shampoo dispenser did not dispense. The shower and dispenser weren't much improvement in the second room but we stayed. Note that there are large steps up to the room so if you have large luggage, you'll need help. Staff was friendly and helpful but many did not speak English. Great pool. Breakfast was good but dinner was so-so so we ended up eating with our guide at a local restaurant after the first night. Our guide showed us just beyond the road that leads to the hotel, they have open market on weekends. Great to walk around. The hotel is about 10 min drive to the entrance of the national park.

So this wasn't my first option as a place to stay but I am glad I ended up here. The staff is very helpful and will do anything to make your stay nice. It is not as modern and hotels closer to the main city, but when you are out in the forests of Lemur land, this is pretty good. I will definitely come back
