3.0“Beautiful lodge ruined by host behavior toward us.”
+The bungalows and the property are beautiful. Hosts (and owners) Patrick and Naik have assembled gorgeous bungalows and a property that shows great attention to detail.
−Hosts were not clear about how meals worked. The website says there is a restaurant. Instead you eat what they prepare, when they say, and at the price by deem (it was expensive for our vegetarian food). Naik and Patrick actually yelled at my twin daughters and then at me about a misunderstanding over meals -- even though we paid for the meals. They insisted we should have known that we had to let them know if we were not going to have dinner. However, a review of their website and our email communication, and based on the information they have on site, does not back this up. Three of us got sick that evening and did not want to eat dinner but because we have not previewed this decision to them Naik and Patrick were very angry -- an anger that carried over to the next morning when I got a severe dressing down. It was incredibly stressful, caused by daughter to cry at the table, and ruined our stay here. I have never had a business owner treat me this way. We also were unable to find anything other than the time-bound meals to eat at the lodge. There were no snacks for purchase, and there is nothing in the villages to buy. On the day 3 of us were sick we tried to buy a soft drink fr

10.0“Fantastic location to enjoy all the wildlife with great facilities and hosts!”
+We stepped off the boat onto the Coco Komba beach to a wonderful greeting by the owners followed by a family of lemurs. Our boys even got to feed them bananas (the lemurs, not the owners 😂). The family accommodation is really well designed and comfortable with 2 separate bedrooms divided by the bathroom and an outdoor sitting area. It’s located in the beautiful gardens and a fine viewing spot for the lemurs once more. The food was exceptional. Very thoughtful, very tasty and very well presented and served. We particularly enjoyed the whole crabs and the homemade bread, butter and jams. We really liked spending time relaxing at the beach, snorkelling out to the fantastic reef, the amazing sunsets and all the games and books provided. Big thanks to Patrick, Naik and the rest of the staff for making our stay so special and memorable!

9.0“Beautiful relaxing stay with our little kids. Food was excellent and a major highlight.”
+The place was well kept and we really appreciated the detail and personal touch of the facilities including the visiting Lemurs! The food was excellent with creative and new menu being developed daily. We loved the fresh bread daily and crepes, we definitely looked forward to our meals every time! Patrick and Naik were attentive to all our needs and made us feel very comfortable!

9.0“Ideal for a family”
+Wonderful location and great hosts. Surrounded by wildlife. Very easy transfer from the airport. Ideal place for the kids to learn to snorkel and build their confidence before we did a morning trip to Nosy Tanikely which I would highly recommend.
−Ended up slightly more expensive than I anticipated, so it was very good value rather than great value.

10.0“A true small paradise on earth”
+Everything. Great location. Great hosts. Great food. You will feel like a castaway in a peaceful and beautiful decor. Naik and Patrick are great hosts and Naik is an extraordinary cook, she will delight you every day with new recipes. The bungalows are extremely comfortable and well-maintained, and the private beach is a true small paradise. You can take a kayak and go explore the rest of the island or organize diving/sborkeling tours in the great surroundings of Nosy Komba.
−as a watch out: you can only pay cash, which you need to prepare in advance since there are no banks in nosy komba.

9.0+Séjour très agréable à Nosy Komba. L'île offre un cadre calme et authentique, propice au repos et aux balades nature. L'accueil local est chaleureux et les hébergements sont conformes aux attentes. Une expérience globale satisfaisante, idéale pour une étape dépaysante.
−La formule exclusive en table d'hôte limite le choix des repas et ne propose pas de véritables spécialités malgaches, ce qui oblige à s'éloigner pour découvrir la cuisine locale. Une expérience positive dans l'ensemble, malgré cette offre de restauration un peu restreinte.
