Diana Lodge is like a magical, wonderful place that u wish to be one day. This time it was real and Everything about this place is pur magic. The people were outstandig, starting with the Host Beatrice. It felt Like at Home and thank one more time for the time and Patience 👍🏻 Tata and André in the kitchen, magic Food, thanks for Ur Creativity. Frank as the Bar Keepern always there with a smile and thanks for the caipis and teaching me to Dance madagassy way🙏🏻 and everybody Else who made me feel Like at Home ❤️

This place went behind our expectations. First of all the location:even if there is a path for the local people in front of the lodge, you practically have like a private beach for the resort itself. We must say we visited in November and the first 2 nights we were the only guests ( what a treat). The sea view bungalow was clean and spacious , the veranda and the sun beds a DREAM. We experienced a high level cuisine thanked to a very young talented chef. Maurice took care of us in a very good way. We appreciated the high speed free internet , the sunset, the perfect massages, the snorkel just in front of the lodge and the private atmosphere of the 5 bungalows. We are happy to come back. The owner Berenice helped us solving a small issue, she was very kind even if we only just spoke on the phone. I hope this place will stay like this, secluded and peaceful. We slept very well . I m a host too , working in tourism since 25 years and appreciate the commitment of the other host like Mme Berenice.

The owners Isak and Sunette made our whole stay exceptional and great! From day one we felt like we were staying with good friends. The property itself is beautiful and very well maintained down to the last detail (our respect goes to both of you, considering there was only jungle there before ;) ). The rooms are very clean and well-kept, the terraces/balconies of the bungalows are beautiful with a great view of the sea. Filtered water is available, can be constantly refilled and is included in the price (which is not self-evident of course: see Ankarana Lodge, for example ...), which is also very sustainable because it means that not too much plastic waste is produced. The lounge/bar/restaurant area, like the entire complex, is lovingly furnished with great attention to detail. The food is great and really delicious, with Malagasy and South African influences. My wife is a vegetarian and they came up with something new (!) every day and cooked delicious dishes for her. Isak's homemade cocktails are - unbelievably - the best in Madagascar (thanks Isak ;) ). Isak and Sunette are very helpful when it comes to buying vanilla and pepper, so a fair price is guaranteed. The two also organize numerous excursions and activities, the house reef itself is already beautiful and well preserved (also thanks to Isak, who introduces new corals). In general, the two are very keen to “give something back” to their surroundings and to run a sustainable business and support the local population. The price-performance ratio is more than fair and the location is great. Tip: Save yourself the stay on Nosy Be and (only) stay on Nosy Komba, because the reefs/coral at Nosy Be in the north are unfortunately dead (global warming and Cyclone “Gamane”), which is why the dive operators from Nosy Be always head south towards Nosy Komba to dive there, because the reefs around Nosy Komba are still beautiful. There are also plenty of (great) dive operators around Nosy Komba (e.g.

excellent location, welcoming staff, beautiful nature.
