When I booked, I thought Lakana was a bit more expensive than some other places. But meals were included so it would balance out. But, those meals!! Amazing. Great breakfast (egg, juice, bread, donut things, coffee, bread, fruit!). And dinners - three course, fancy, delicious. All set in an outdoor dining room with a view of the ocean.
Also, Rova is amazing!! She gave me suggestions for what to do on the island and arranged tuktuks.
And, they picked me up at the airport - for free! They were just there, waiting for me.
My flight from Antananarivo was delayed by a day, they didn't charge me for my room that night. then it was delayed by a day leaving. they dealt with the airline to get them to pay for my room that night too.
And the rooms! So beautiful! I got one out at the end of the pier with the most amazing view of the ocean!
Also (so much to love), they have Madagascar tortoises that eat the cut flowers if you feed them.

The owner Marc was incredibly helpful and all the staff were very friendly. It was a great base to explore the north of the island from. Really nice property overall and exceeded our expectations! The food was also excellent and reasonably priced. We liked the more remote location, away from the bustle of town.

Breathtaking beauty...once you get there.
Breathtaking beauty...once you get there. Access to the island can be tedious and exhausting, but once you are there, you forget everything about the travel.
Plenty of things to do from the North of the island to the South.
The best periods to come are either July-September (to be able to see the humpback whales) or November-December (though it can be quite rainy).

If there is a storm - and not boats leave to St Marie - for 4 days - and you loose all the money for the hotel - at least at Masoandro Lodge.
This makes it very unsure to book a trip to this stormy east coast of Madagaskar... Beware of that...
Lakana hotel is one of the best choice you can choose on Sainte-Marie island. Location is beautiful. You can reserve bungalow on the tilt or in the garden (I had). The beach is cleaned everyday. The food is mostly local with a lot of fruits and it is very delicious. Bungalows are cozy and clean. Madam Rova (manager) is simply fantastic. She solved all my troubles with a transfer back to the mainland. Thanks again to all Lakana team. The only bad think is that one day you must leave, but I’ll be back soon :-)

The location is spectacular, the staff are all so helpful and nice. The woman manager went above and beyond to organise tours or transport and help us enjoy our stay. The ability to see whales from the terrace was magical.
The food is excellent with an extensive lunch and dinner menu.
Room was large and comfortable, anti mosquito plugins and sensible nets were standard.
The hotel has a group of giant tortoises as well which were fun to see.
Very nice location with swimming pool and amazing beach with sunset view. Amazing food and wine. Very helpful and kind staff.
For wi-fi I had an orange data sim from Tana and managed to work remotely just fine.
A day visit to Ile Aux Nattes is a must. Please take your time and while on the island visit Le Fafana restaurant, amazing lobsters and drinks and amazing host! It made our trip to the island memorable.
Staff was very friendly, especially Sam did his utter best. Rest was willing to accomomdate our wishes and needs. If we wanted to make an excursion, they were always ready to help us. The location is on the beach and marvellous. The bungalow was magnificent with 2 bathrooms and stylishly decorated. The hotel has a kind of Ibiza / Bali style and feels very relaxed.The snacks and fresh coconuts are delicious.
Quite and Peaceful location in the middle of the island. Easy to reach all parts of the island with a quad or scooter.
Friendly and Hospitable owners Bertrand and Catherine helped to arrange/rent quad and scooters for our trips within the island and provided snorkelling glasses and footwear for snorkelling while staying in Hotel.
Certainly one of the best places to stay in Sainte Marie, very helpful and kind staff with English language available, excellent restaurant with very good quality meals provided, frequently cleaned bungalows with all the amenities needed, spectacular beach front and extra services by requests, this is all for a reasonable price

Amazing hotel with beautiful gardens, amazing landscape and very tasty breakfast and dinner. All the staff, from the very helpful and kind hotel manager Mrs. Rova to Charlene our restaurant host and the owners, were very warm hearted and attentive. We would go back again without second thought!!

The best restaurant in St Marie, really nice lodges, beautiful garden and breathtaking views. Nice snorkelling right at the hotel. The owners are super professional and caring and staff all really friendly. A piece of heaven.
We just loved our stay at Azzurra Villa! Very well equipped and clean. The staff are lovely and very helpful. The food at the hotel was exceptional. It took us 45min to reach there but it is so worth it! Highly recommended!
The Staff and location were great. Breakfast was good and enjoyable. Recommend for a four day stay. The island is small and it doesn’t take many days to enjoy your stay and see what the island has to offer.
We felt at home but as special guests on the same time. It was on of my best hotel experience ever. The food is really good, the lodge is spacious, clean and in excellent condition.
The hotel is juste GORGEOUS! The entire staff is impeccable, the several offered activities… THE FOOD OMG, almost everything was juste PERFECT. I recommend a 51627%
