Vakona Forest Lodge

Andasibe-Mantadia National Park

Vakona is a classic in the area. The lodge has its own small reserve with two different parks, where you can see chameleons, crocodiles and birds, among other things. In one park is a small island, Lemur Island, where it is possible to see lemurs. However, we do not recommend a visit to the island, as the lemurs are almost tame, and this kind of interaction with the wildlife does not live up to our animal welfare policy.

The lodge, on the other hand, is definitely worth a visit in itself. There are 28 bungalows, simply furnished with a bed with mosquito net, ceiling fan, safety box and minibar. The big draw is its location in the middle of the rainforest, and in particular the restaurant, which has a veranda built over a small lake.

A quiet morning here with a cup of coffee, the birds diving for flies on the surface of the water and perhaps with the sounds of indris calling – this is Andasibe at its best.
