Sakatia Lodge in Ambanja

Voor drie nachten geboekt en dat zijn er zeven geworden. Wat een geweldige plek om te mogen zijn. De vriendelijkheid, professionaliteit en de gemoedelijke sfeer beleef je van opstaan tot slapengaan.De locatie is fantastische evenals het uitzicht. De maaltijden zijn verser dan vers. Ook de Bruces Vegas cocktail aan de bar is een aanrader (haha).Wij hebben tien duiken gemaakt die stuk voor stuk prachtig waren en ook erg gezellig. De fluor dive was een bijzondere ervaring. Met apparatuur hoef je niet te sjouwen, ook dat is top geregeld.Jose, Isabella, Jean Michel, Giorgia, Lucy, Jacques en alle andere toppers; nogmaals bedankt voor de fantastische tijd die wij met jullie hebben mogen doorbrengen.See you next time!♡

More beautiful a place you will not find...

Gibt es einen Superlativ zu „paradiesisch“, ja, Nosy Sakatia. Sonne, Strand, Palmen, Meer, eine wunderschöne kleine Anlage im üppigen blütenreichen Grün. Leicht erhöht am Hang stehen die süßen Bungalows, die Ausblick über die ganze Bucht bis hin zu Nosy Be bieten. Die Staff ist total lieb und hilfsbereit. Die Mahlzeiten sind Augen- und Gaumenschmaus zugleich und bringen jeden Tag neue den Mund wässrig machende Überraschungen. Giorgia, eine italienische Meeresbiologin, als Tauchguide macht das ganze Paket 100% perfekt.

Unaccoglienza familiare, staff unico,unorganizzazione x le escursioni preciso e puntuale,14 giorni in paradiso senza un imprevisto,cucina incredibile. Non è una vacanza ma, unesperienza che si può vivere solo in questo lodge!!!

We had an amazing stay at the Sakatia lodge. The island is very peaceful with a nice atmosphere. The lodges are nice and well maintained. Food was very delicious and fresh. The staff is very kind and professional. A special thanks to the lovely Georgia who took us on a diving session and made us feel very welcome during our stay. Would definitely recommend Sakatia lodge if you want to relax and also enjoy some more adventurous activities. Very luxurious with a personal approach, the opposite of a typical hotelchain-experience in the best way possible. We hope to go back one time!

We spent a week at Sakatia Lodge. A fantastic experience.The lodge is well maintained. Lots of love has been put by the friendly owners.The staff is well trained; great service and excellent food.The ambiance is relaxed and you wont be disturbed by anything, it is a private place.At this moment the lodge is managed by a super kind Italian coupleThey speak fluent English. Andrea and Giorgia are service oriented and make sure that your stay meets all your wishes.I took the Advanced Diving course. Andrea was my instructor and I felt comfortable with him under water. He is experienced and teached me many things and I approved so much, already after the first dive.We had great days on Sakatia and we are little sad to leave. We will be back!Thanks to all Sakatia Lodge members for the great stay! 💕

Cest un bon endroit pour passer le weekend.La chambre est magnifique. Le repas est bonMerci sakatia lodge

Hot, humid but really worth every cent! Grateful to wondeful staff, well prepared food, rooms attetended to everyday. It was a wonderful time and all the staffs effort was overwhelming and interaction just added a homely touch. Thanx Jean-Michel, Anastasia, all the other staff - u are wonderful

Back to basics! A great escape with wonderful food. Amazing snorkeling and diving.

Bel établissement porté vers le haute de gamme. Les bungalows sont en retrait et somme toute assez éloigné de la mer. La plage est superbe et bien abritée. La forêt, la jungle commence juste derrière pour faire une balade par laquelle on peut passer de l’autre côté de l’ile et visiter la mangrove en état d’origine naturel.

We stayed at Sakatia Lodge for 6 nights, and that was one of the best experiences weve ever had. A very beautiful pace, located on the unspoiled island, friendly and exceptionally well trained staff, great food, experienced diving instructors were among the things which made our stay so good.They offer different activities for their guests: diving, whale-sharks watching, snorkeling with green turtles, SUP renting, trips to different islands, guided hikes on Nosy Satakia just to name a few :)And an extra point goes to the eco-friendly tourism approach. They try to satisfy and entertain their guests, while keeping the nature and wild life in mind. Responsible tourism for the win!

Merveilleux

Bellissima spiaggia! Tipica e spettacolare!

Sans conteste le meilleur lieu de Nosy Sakatia, Accueil chaleureux, superbe point de vue, qualité supérieure pour nourriture, hôtellerie et plongée Bref un petit paradis à des prix étudiés

Siamo stati ospitati dalla signora Isabella per un escursione, appena labbiamo incontrata ci ha messo subito a nostro agio con la sua gentilezza e disponibilità, ottimo il pranzo,davvero squisito, non abbiamo usufruito delle camere ma vedendo l ambiente sono sicuro di non sbagliare dando 5 stelle. Consigliatissimo!

Huauuuuhuuuu... 👌😁

Highly recommended for honeymooners. We absolutely had a great honeymoon. Our second visit is well overdue!

Φανταστικό μέρος όπως και όλο το nosy be.Καταφέραμε να δούμε χελώνες και να κολυμπήσουμε δίπλα τους.

Posto incantevole e tranquillo per passare una vacanza in totale relax.E poi la cucina e il personale sono il TOP. 👏👏👏👏👏

Ottima accoglienza,camere stupende,cibo freschissimo e ben cucinatoIsola da visitare assolutamentePer immersioni affidarsi totalmente a José e Jacques the best

Sakatia Lodge is an amazing piece of paradise! Lots of activities to do for free like kayaking and snorkelling. Best part of the island is you can spend hours swimming with large turtles and exploring clear waters filled with mangroves. The food was fantastic, cocktails even better and the staff were great! Take a walk through the island with a local guide for a feel of the whole island too! An experience of a lifetime overall!

Superbe, ambiance calme à la limite du zen, propre et soignée, nourriture excellente. Sans parler du cadre... Génial

A little paradise

Amazing... A piece of paradise...

Visited here in Dec 2017. Stayed in family bungalow which was pleasant, right on the beach , will cooler wind every now and again.This time of year very hot and humid, one perspires without doing effort. Nights offer no relieve, especially when fan stops on generator shutdown.The good things about the lodge is- breakfast and dinner good, sufficient and varied- neat and cared for- staff good, helpful and speaks a degree of English- lunch and drinks are reasonable compared to other Malgasie lodges I visited.- hygiene of a high standard which is essential- hosts are helpful and accommodating- the dive centre is active and well runNot such good things- no activities on offer, easy to get bored- sea current withdraws from the bay, leaving sea bed exposed maybe 500 meters- possibly sand mites on the beach / adjacent mangrove which bite when swimming- no pool (that said, none of the other lodges I visited had swimming pools)Saw chameleons, gecko’s, snakes in there natural environment, which good to experience.

Nous avons prix un bungalow sur la plage plus loin et létat étais deplorable. Nous avons donc été au Sakatia lodge et laccueil étais super. Les chambres en bonne état et génial je recommande !

Good

Ottimo ristorante Alberto un vero professionista ospitale e gentile da ritornare presto

We stayed at Sakatia Lodge for 6 days and 7 nights. Initially we were very impressed with our bungalow and setting. But it soon dawned on us that we were on an island were everything purchased is through the lodge and at the highest exchange rate possible. Bottle water had to be purchased at the bar which was extremely costly. We found we had to remain hungry through the day as purchasing a simple sandwich for lunch cost us R76.00 each. We found our savings dwindling away trying just to save enough to make the trip home. Our generators were turned off even before the stipulated time leaving you in the dark and terribly hot and bothered. There is no respite from the heat and you cannot even go for a dip in ocean for relief as it is a mangrove area and when the tide is low it is a huge mud bowl and when tide is in it is too shallow unless you can walk through 400m of thick mud to get into a bit of a deeper area to cool down. We were extremely bored and the trip out to lemur island was shody and a tourist trap. The people living there are extremely unfriendly and be sure not to point your finger in anyones general direction, we felt very unsafe. One night Jose promised a huge spread for supper we were starving and supper time came and went finally when Joses family and friends arrived on the island were we allowed to eat. Clearly he was only concerned about his family and friends and not the guests at the lodg

Beautiful accommodation right on the beach with stunning crystal warm calm waters, surrounded by lush tropical vegetations. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Le lieu, laccueil, le personnel, les activités et le personnel ; tout est parfait.

Hier soir nous y avons dîné, bon endroit, toujours une caillepie en apéritif, rhum citron glace pilée, cadre et musique années 70 80... Repas de la mer, rhum arrangé en digestif. C est toujours nouveau et délicieux. Retour dans la nuit, petite incursion dans la mer en rentrant...

One of the wonderfulst places of the world to stay quiet days on the sea. Family atmosphere, best food, ecxellent service, great possibility for Big Game fishing and it must be great for diving. I only can recommend and I am sure I will come back.
