Constance Lodge Tsarabanjina

Azure blue waters. White sand beaches. Your own private bungalow with thatched roof and rosewood construction. The Constance Lodge Tsarabanjina stands alone among Madagascar hotels. Once you find yourself on the secluded island, you will find no news, television, or telephone to interrupt your reacquaintance with nature. The only sounds are from a gentle breeze, the lull of the Indian Ocean, and the melody of the birds.

You faithfully follow the dress code of pareo and bare feet. There is no pretense here. No deadlines. No rush. Fill your days with long beach walks, snorkeling and sailing, or simply sit back and let the African sun cleanse you. A mainly seafood diet will restore your body's balance and please your palate.

Afterward, dig your bare feet into the sand of the bar floor as you socialize with other like-minded explorers. This is not only an excursion to another physical place. It's a vacation looking inward.
