More info:

We are French, living in California, and rent our property in Madagascar. We operate in harmony with the residents of Nosy Be and Nosy Komba. We care about the wellbeing of our staff and respect the Malagasy traditions. We share with you the local beauty of this site with a Westernized expectation.

The three lodges have contemporary, minimalist interiors that use luxury materials with responsible environmental design. The villas are all built from sustainable tropical wood, and the roofing is made from dry palm tree leaves.
This combines to provide a tropical experience while leaving a minimal footprint.

We have rented for many years in France, too:

We just spent a week in Nosi Komba at Dominique's house. We were three couples, and the house was perfect for us. The only thing I can say is that you need to be in good shape because there are a few steps to climb, but once you're up, the view is breathtaking and the sunsets unforgettable.The Malagasy staff who work there were exceptional; they made us feel truly at home. Chef Jean Baptiste pampered us and fed us excellently. With the boat, which is available every day, we took wonderful trips to explore the surrounding beaches and villages.We truly thanks them for the wonderful memory we took back home.

Such an amazing place to relax and enjoy a slice of paradise. The beach was perfect for relaxing and swimming, the accommodation was beautiful and the food delicious. The excursions were fantastic. The opportunity to go snorkeling with the turtles and fish, to see the Lemurs shouldn't be missed. What a place! Everything is set up perfectly and it is highly recommended for anyone and everyone.

Honestly, no other word for this vacation other than paradise. You arrive by boat from Hellville directly to the private beach that the villas overlook. Sergio, the muscle man, takes our 30kg suitcases over his head and carries them up the stairs to our room. The master villa is beautiful, bathroom is spacious and clean, open-plan style shower and large sink, and a large mirror with great bright lighting. Mosquito nets over all the windows, doors, and of course the bed. Master bed was beautifully comfortable. Terrace was spacious with amazing loungers and views of the beach. The sun sets over the horizon. Further upstairs is the restaurant/ living area. Chef Jean Baptiste was the highlight of our entire stay in Madagascar. A kind, honest, humble man who is fantastic at his job. As a chef myself, all food was perfectly cooked, ingredient selection was perfect, presentation was beautiful. His service really made our stay feel 5*. Pricilla, the maid / housekeeper was also wonderful at tidying and refreshing our rooms every day, which further made the experience feel so luxury. Honestly, nothing but good reviews for this place. Everything was stunning, and clean, and homely. The views are just... speechless - and that beautiful starry night sky. I miss falling asleep to the sound of waves and crickets. You may also get visits from Lemurs in the trees above. Perfection. Thank you Dominque.

Get away from it all (only accessible by boat, with your private captain), don’t worry about working (cook and femme de menage take care of everything including running errands), only need to decide what to do first: swimming , snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, scuba diving, nothing. Great communication with the hosts.
