La direction ignore complètement les client et passe a côté de nous s en nous portee d intention.
Literie horrible ,et chien qui aboie casiment toute la nuit....
Buona proposta per chi cerca una soluzione easy e diversa dal villaggio all inclusive.
Struttura raccolta, cucina eccellente.
I proprietari sono cordiali e lo staff amichevole senza essere invadente.
Ci hanno dato una bella stanza spaziosa.
Gli ambienti non sono climatizzati, non c’è tv in camera (che a noi non interessava, beninteso).
Hanno l’acqua calda e la wi-fi funziona.
Ho dormito anche su materassi più comodi, ma si può decisamente sopravvivere.
L’offerta è conforme alla spesa. Se cercate il lusso, alzate il budget e andate altrove.
Struttura spartana ma accogliente se si vuole vivere l esperienza di vita malgascia. Proprietari simpatici ed disponibili! Buono qualità prezzo. Ovvio che se non volete rinunciare ai confort di un hotel 4 stelle europeo, dovete scegliere altro. Ovviamente spendendo più del doppio.
Questa esperienza è stata una delle migliori che abbia avuto.
Elisabetta , Ian e i loro 2 cani (penelope e ulisse) e la gattina shiba ci hanno accolto nel loro BB come vecchi amici e durante il nostro soggiorno hanno anche inaugurato la prima clinica veterinaria dell'isola nel retro del BB.
E' stato come se fossimo ospiti in casa loro, con i pregi e difetti nel vivere in un ambiente familiare e non in albergo. All'inizio siamo rimasti un pò disorientati per come vive la gente del posto, e per la posizione isolata del Sambatra e se cercate un resort con tutti i confort di un villaggio europeo, questa location purtroppo non fa per voi. Ma se chiudete gli occhi e cercate di immaginare come vorreste vivere un mese o una vita in questo luogo lontano dalla civiltà europea, probabilmente , come è successo a me, non poteva essere che il Sambatra.
5 o 6 Camere semplici e funzionali, colazione abbondante cucina ottima (sia pasta che gnocchetti e pesce fresco o carne di zebù), ambiente accogliente, massaggi a 5 euro, lettini imbottiti (peccato siano solo 4) e lunga spiaggia con la bassa marea proprio di fronte all'isola di Sakatia dove ti portandoti con la barca, puoi vedere le testuggini giganti e la barriera corallina e al rientro spettacolare tramonto davanti al Sambatra sorseggiando un rhum alla cannella o un mojito .
La sera abbiamo visto spesso che vi erano alcuni ospiti di altri resort che cenavano da noi, segno che qui sa mangia meglio....
Amazing food and very kind owners and staff. Nothing much to do around the area but beautiful walks up north. And very convenient getting to nearby hotels and Chanty beach.
Luogo rilassante semplice e familiare,lo consiglio vivamente a chi vuole fare una vacanza rilassante,carinissimi i bungalow fronte spiaggia. Cibo ottimo l unica peccavla colazione un po' ripetitiva. Per il resto tutto ok
Habitació confortable i neta. No ens va tocar una habitació tant a prop del mar com les que surt a les fotos, però molt correcte, potser una mica fosca. Molt bon menjar al restaurant. Vem fer una excursió que organitzen a l'hotel per anar a Nosy Sakatia i va anar molt bé, molt simpàtic el noi que ho organitza.
Rooms right on the beach , great bar over looking the beach with good Wi-fi :)
The food is amazing, we ate swordfish ( fresh caught Metres from where we sat on the beach ) with beautifully cooked vegetables.
Owners & staff very helpful and friendly speaking many languages including English :)
We’ll be back soon :)
