An eco-lodge set at the edge
of the world

In Anakao, on the southwest coast of Madagascar, Longo Vezo keeps watch over a pristine lagoon where time slows down.

Here, the days unfold to the rhythm of the tides, the Vezo outrigger canoes, the return of the fishing boats, and moments shared while facing the ocean.

Hotel

Bungalows set on the sand, facing the lagoon

Wood, thatch, and natural materials: simple chalets that open out toward the surrounding vegetation and the Indian Ocean.

Diving

Beneath the surface,
an infinite number of discoveries.

Located in the heart of the world’s fourth-largest coral reef, Longo Vezo takes you to explore drop-offs, caves, coral gardens, and a remarkably rich array of marine life.

Testimonials

Fantastique séjour à Anakao ! L’emplacement juste au dessus de la plage est fantastique, on entend les vagues la nuit et ouvrir la porte le matin est une sensation extraordinaire. Le coucher de soleil est incroyable. Le personnel est également très gentil.

Le confort est peut-être un peu moindre avec le systèmes d’eau qui ne plaira pas à tout le monde mais moi cela ne m’a pas gêné d’autant plus qu’il y a un système pour chauffer l’eau.

Michael - France

Fabuleux ! La cabane sur la plage était vraiment magnifique, un petit coin de paradis. La gestion de l’eau chaude est un bon système écologique. Le confort des matelas et du restaurant étaient parfaits.

Johan - Mayotte

Exceptionnel  ! La proximité avec la plage, le calme, la nourriture.

3 jours à Longo Vezo. L’emplacement au bord de la plage, le jardin bien entretenu, mais surtout l’accueil de Carole et Eric ainsi que de toutes leurs équipes. Un séjour dans un petit coin de paradis.

Paradise found – We loved Longo Vezo, our hosts were gentle and helpful and location is top… Bungalow right on the beach, nice resto and bar area and our hosts were friendly and helpful. What more could you ask for?

Thomas - Royaume Uni

The best place in Anakao! Incrdible! Bungalow on the beach, with an insame view. Food is stunning and the restaurant is so cozy. Carol the owner is awesome, told us a bit about her story, and the restaurant staff is super nice. The bungallow itself is big, comfortable and very beautiful. Rustic but pleasant. Mosquito nets are high quality and cover the bed fully. You have to shower with a bucket but we loved it – part of experience. Also, food is sooo good. Fresh fish etc.
