LOKANGA BOUTIQUE HÔTEL

Straight ahead, the view is breathtaking over the entire city, Lake Anosy, the hills, the rice fields... A cosy lounge, a charming English garden and a restaurant with a 180-degree panoramic terrace complete this beautiful setting. Walks (advice, maps and information on each site) are available from the residence. Not so off-centre: Analakely is less than 10 minutes away by car/taxi and the pretty district of Isoraka is within walking distance. Around the house, everyday life is unfolding: a cock crows, people pass by, the shutters of the tin shops slamming... And it's like a small bucolic corner overlooking the city
