On the north-west coast of Nosy-Be, Home Madagascar The Residence occupies an estate of more than 10 hectares overlooking Befotaka Bay. Around fifteen high-end villas and bungalows are spread across a wooded environment, just steps away from a private beach stretching 800 metres facing the island of Nosy Fanihy.

Why choose this accommodation

The property appeals to travellers who wish to combine comfort and independence during their stay in Nosy-Be. The independent villa formula is particularly suited to families and groups of friends who appreciate having private spaces while enjoying the services of a residential property. Located 15 km from the airport and close to Andilana beach, it allows you to quickly reach the main points of interest in the north of the island while remaining in a pristine setting.

The estate is crossed by a small river and remains away from overcrowded tourist areas, ensuring a peaceful environment.

Setting and atmosphere

The grounds extend over more than 10 hectares of wild and unspoilt nature. Dense vegetation lines the paths connecting the villas to the beach. Befotaka Bay offers sheltered waters, with transparency that allows you to observe the seabed just metres from the shore. Facing the beach, Nosy Fanihy closes the horizon: this small uninhabited island can be reached by pirogue from the private beach.

The overall atmosphere is that of a human-scale residence, where each villa maintains a sense of privacy thanks to the layout of the grounds.

Villas and bungalows

The accommodation offers around fifteen high-end villas and bungalows scattered throughout the grounds. The units are designed to welcome both couples and families, with living spaces allowing you to stay independently for several days.
