Beach loungers

Sun loungers are set out along the beach. Find a shady spot, settle in with a book and watch the tide and island life drift by.

Snorkelling

The house reef stretches for over a kilometre offshore and offers rewarding snorkelling throughout much of the tide cycle. At low tide, the coral formations and reef fish are at their easiest to explore. As the tide rises, head to the turtle reserve at the foot of the sacred mountain, where giant green turtles are regularly seen feeding in the seagrass beds. Snorkelling gear is available to borrow; chat with our team and we’ll happily point you towards the best areas.

Games & social areas

A small open-sided games bungalow with card games, backgammon and pétanque. The kind of place where an afternoon can quietly disappear between games, conversation and a cold drink.

Sunset & stargazing

Take the short climb to our hilltop viewpoint overlooking the mangrove bay, Sacred Mountain and open ocean beyond. As the sun sets, the western horizon glows while the reflected colours light up the skies above Nosy Be. After dark, with virtually no light pollution, the stars, Milky Way and Southern Cross take centre stage.

Island massage

A few steps from the beach, our massage bungalow offers a peaceful setting to unwind. Enjoy a traditional Malagasy massage using 100% natural Malagasy oils, while birdsong drifts down from the Sacred Mountain and the tide laps gently along the shore. Let island time do the rest.

Barefoot dining

Fresh island flavours, ocean views and relaxed dining by the sea. From breakfast through dinner, enjoy locally inspired dishes in a setting where shoes are entirely optional.
