Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

"Nous étions un grande famille d''une dizaine de personnes et la maison était parfaite pour notre nombre. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette maison, véritable havre de paix. Des pecheurs et des vendeurs de fruits divers passaient tous les matins nous proposer leur produit. Les gardiens Lala et Mahafaly sont des personnes très serviable, Lala nous avait apportè un gros panier de mangues et elle nettoyait la maison tous les matins. Des serviettes et du linge de maison était prévu à notre arrivée. Mr Haja, le gérant est également très sympathique et serviable, il nous a organisé une excursion au parc d''Ankarafantsika sur simple demande. Le seul petit bémol c''est que l''un des sanitaires des dépendances était défectueux au moment de notre séjour, ce qui n''était pas pratique comme on était nombreux. Aussi, les dépendances n''étant pas des constructions en dur mais des cases en falafa, la chaleur y était suffocante, surtout la nuit. Heureusement que chaque chambre était dotée d''un ventilateur. Nous y retournerons volontiers pour un prochain séjour et recommandons sans hésitation. Comme c''est un peu loin de tout, ce qui fait le charme de la maison, il faut être véhiculé."

"Rapport qualité/prix inegallé pour cette maison tres agreable ,les 2 pieds dans l eau ou presque.Elles possedent 2 grandes chambres climatisées,agreables et silencieuses permettant un bon repos pendant la nuit,l adsl pour rester en contact facilement avec sa famille et partager son sejour,ainsi que la television par satellite pour rester informé avec les chaines traditionnelles fraçaises .La cuisiniere est d un tres bon niveau,elle cuisinne des fruits frais,du poissons,des legumes,des crevettes et meme des langoustes que l on trouve a un prix raisonnable autour de la maison et l on peut meme se faire masser a domicile.Il y a la possibilité de louer un 4x4 a un prix tres abordable avec un chauffeur extremement sympathique et serviable.Quand le bateau est a l eau plutot en saison seche ,on peut le louer pour une partie de peche ,faire du ski ou de la bouée pour les enfants ! le proprietaire est tres sympathique,facilement joignable par internet et l on peut lui poser toutes les questions possibles. C est un petit coin tres agreable loin des sites touristiques ,ou l on se sent en securité (il y a un gardien tres serviable) avec une population acceuillante et sympathique. Mes enfants ,ma femme et moi esperons bien pouvoir y retourner dés l an prochain ."

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans la villa à Magunga Nous étions 10 et la villa nous a permis d'avoir suffisamment d'espace pour tous. En effet, en plus du bâtiment en dur disposant de 2 chambres et d'un salon très agréable, il y a 3 chambres dans le jardin avec 2 autres salles de bain.La terrasse avec vue sur mer dispose d'un salon où il fait bon se prélacer.est particulièrement agréable Personnellement j'ai aimé cette cpnstruction traditionnelle.L'endroit est calme et l'on est pas du tout importuné sur la plage. La cuisinière nous a fait de bons petits plats.

Bonheur et ZEN...vivement le prochain séjour déjà réservé

Magnifique sejour après un périple de 15 jours. Nous nous sommes poses avec plaisir à la villa MIADNA, villa spacieuse pour accueillir notre groupe permettant à chacun de conserver son espace personnel. Terasse conviviale avec vue sur la plage ou l on se retrouvait pour des soirées memorables. Personnel discret et attachant, lolo étant une super cuisinière. Nous avons prolongé notre sejour sur l ile aux nattes (au large de Sté Marie) 2 séjours qui se complètent parfaitement et à ne pas manquer !! On revient chez des souvenirs plein la tête !!!

"This is a great house in an extremely beautiful l...
"This is a great house in an extremely beautiful location right on the beach front of the village of Moroala, about 15-20 minutes by car from the western port city of Mahajanga. It is rare to find such a tranquil, clean and unpolluted beach as this. Each morning, from the shaded verandah, you can see the small fishing boats (pirogues) setting off for deeper waters, with their triangualar sails set against the wind. In the evening there are the most beautiful sunsets over the Mozambique Channel. The beach itself is clean and free of the plastic objects and other detritus etc usually washed up on the beaches of many other developing countries, and is free of mass tourism developments. The house has air-conditioning in both bedrooms and the main bedroom looks out onto a beautiful cool garden, as does the front verandah, which is perfect for whiling away the day. There is a dining room/lounge area with satellite television. The verandah also has table and chairs for eating alfresco, overlooking the garden and the sea, and comfortable chairs for lounging about. Each morning, sellers of fish, prawns, crayfish, tropical fruits and vegetables come to the front gate to ask if you need anything for the day. The seafood, straight from sea to table, is cheaper here (and fresher) than in most other parts of the world. There is an onsite caretaker who lives with his wife next to the property. He and his wife are lovely people. They will advise you on whether the seafood on offer is really fresh, and will clean and barbecue your fish, crayfish and prawns on a traditional Malagasy brassiere. A young house lady comes to clean each day, so the house is always clean and well-maintained. A cook is also available for a modest daily sum if you prefer not to cook for yourself. The house is well provisioned with everything you might need, and the kitchen has modern and traditional cooking implements. The city of Mahajanga is an architectural delight, with many buildings in the old city dating from the colonial years, with wide verandahs and collonades; In Mahajanga there are supermarkets and traditional Malagasy markets selling everything from fresh vanilla pods (delicious when added to your freshly ground Malagasy Arabica or Robusta morning coffee) to local and imported French cheeses. Madagascar offers perhaps the best quality and greatest range of fresh foods you are likely to find anywhere - a true culinary and gourmet's delight. In the evening in Mahajanga, the local people promenade along the seafront until late evening. Sellers of delicious local treats are spread along its length. A car is available with the house at a reasonable additional price (with driver) or you can walk about 15 minutes along a small track to take local buses or taxis into town. It is also possible to make day excursions to parks and other sites of interest in the region. I recommend this house and region to anyone: whether individual, small group, or family with young children, looking for a restful holiday by the sea, in an unspoiled region. If you are disposed to treat the local people with respect and friendship, you will learn a great deal about the customs of the Malagasy, particularly the Sakalava people who inhabit the western coast of Madagscar - and you will have the holiday of a lifetime."
