"Manga Soa Lodge is an absolute paradise on earth! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beauty and eco-friendliness of this magical place. 🌿✨ The lodge is not only breathtakingly romantic but also managed to perfection by Oceana and Roman, who are such gracious and attentive hosts. The staff, including Jerome and Ella, were warm, welcoming, and always ready to help, while our airport shuttle driver made sure our journey to the lodge was seamless. Oceana and Roman went above and beyond in coordinating excellent tours for us—just be sure to bring Euros in cash for these adventures! The food at the resort was a culinary masterpiece, thanks to the incredible chef. Every meal was a delight and added to the unforgettable experience. If you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, and an eco-friendly getaway, Manga Soa Lodge is your destination. Truly an unforgettable stay in paradise!"

"The resort was beautiful. The beach, the pool were fantastic and the rooms were good. They offered some good excursions and the kids club team were great with our daughter. On the negative side, Andilana Beach Resort targets a very specific demographic, Italians. This should have been highlighted as everything was in Italian, including all the entertainment, which limited our enjoyment. The language barrier was also a bit of a challenge, as we spoke very little Italian and most of the staff spoke limited English. The food was also specific to the demographic with more pasta and pizza on offer than we could handle. There were a few other options, but the quality was average. The resort could benefit from incorporating more local cuisine more regularly. We did get local options on the excursions, which was really good. Overall, the resort was great, the staff were great, but we struggled with the fact that everything was in Italian, which we did not expect from a French speaking territory."

"Good value hotel conveniently located"

"was good. The only issue is internet that was on and off. Elodie, the lady at the front desk was amazing, "

"I must admit that I was a little concerned that staying at a resort so isolated we might be “ prisoner “ to over priced food and drinks. My fears could not be further from the truth. The food and drink here is very reasonably priced, and very good. The chef comes to you, yes he comes and finds you, then you order your meal, and arrange the time you would like to eat and you sit down, the meal arrives. Everything here is done with the guest in mind. The day trips offered cover everything you would want to see, the resort has its own boat, so it’s easy to arrange whatever you would like to do. Phillip is always available to answer your questions. He’s been doing this a long time, there are loads of staff on the property. If you would like to spoil yourself in an unspoiled paradise book book book"
