Premier

Manafiafy Beach & Rainforest Lodge

Independent (Madagascar Classic Collection) · Rainforest and beach lodge · Sainte Luce, near Fort Dauphin, southeast

Mandrare's coastal sister lodge, tucked into a sheltered bay where rainforest meets a quiet beach near Fort Dauphin. A handful of bungalows look over mangroves and the sea, and the lodge runs on the same naturalist-led, low-key philosophy. Chameleons, nocturnal lemurs and, in season, migrating whales offshore are the headline experiences.

Why we recommend it

A rare lodge where rainforest, mangrove and ocean meet, and the natural pairing with Mandrare River Camp for a full southern circuit.
