Royal Andilana Resort & Spa

Second time in Royal Andilana and I can say that it’s an exceptional hotel. For sure one of the best ones I’ve ever been to! And as I work in tourism I travel a lot! The hotel has an amazing style, lovely, clean and specious rooms. It’s run by Italians so the food is ABSOLUTELY amazing. You can just eat all the long. Most importantly all the staff are kind and friendly (starting from the ladies cleaning the room and finishing on managers), animators do great entertainment and always come to you with their hearts open! It’s a family style management, which means the main director will come to you to offer an espresso and will pop up in the middle of the night if something is happening and you need help. I love that it’s not focused on a mass tourism. You can really relax here surrounded by the palm trees, peace, and Malagasy culture. Highly recommend to anyone! The only thing I would change is the coffee included in the price of an all-inclusive ☺️

Most hotel guests are becoming very sick — diarrhoea, severe stomach pain and clear signs of food-related illness. The manager does not respond and refuses to acknowledge the problem, even though it affects many people. The hotel staff are extremely pushy and repeatedly ask for tips at every step, which creates a very uncomfortable atmosphere. The rooms look nice, but the cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. It’s hard to call this a pleasant stay when you spend most of your time close to the bathroom.

A wonderful vacation for a family of four. Pool, beach, and top-notch activities. Delicious, varied food. Very nice people. Sylvestre is the best sports animator and a great guy!

The most beautiful vacation! Beautiful hotel. Delicious food. Amazing people. 11/10. Sylvestre was the best animator. Everything was top-notch.

At a first looks the place looks stunnning but after being there for a couple of days you realize that the matress is hard as a rock and the pillow very uncomfortable. The beach looks great but due to tide and seaweed you may have to walk a lot to take a dive. The beach chair are uncomfortable, the umbrella low and the feet washer even lower. The restaurant is ok but definitely lack local flavor (more local products prepared European way). The local staff was very attentive but communicating with them was often a problem even if you are speaking english and french. Overall not a bad place but nothing to be bragging about

I would like to thank Durand for being one of the best animators, he is a top person and made my stay here incredible I will be back

I stayed 1 week in the hotel Royal Andilana. The room is very clean. The service in the hotel are exelent. I played a lot of voleyball, all animator are very nice and Sylvestre is the best animator for me. The atmosphere was very nice. I recommend this hotel to everyone

I highly recommend the Royal Andilana and the entire staff led by Antonio. The hotel is absolutely stunning and spotless which was something we needed by that point in our trip. We had traveled throughout Madagascar and had to deal with our share of lizards and bugs occupying our room in other hotels however at the Royal Andilana we were able to sleep peacefully without fear of any unwelcomed guests. The food is much higher end than a standard all inclusive and has something for everyone. Our vacation in Madagascar was supposed to be ending in Nosy be with only a two night stay at the Royal Andilana however air Madagascar lost our bags upon arrival to Nosy Be and we didn’t even have a toothbrush. We were so stressed but Antonio and his staff stepped up and anticipated every possible need we had. We felt so taken care of during the four days without luggage and extended our stay because of the baggage issue. When booking our holiday we really wanted to stay at a clean and up to date hotel however we ended up with so much more. It truly felt like home and every employee made us feel welcomed. This is definitely the only place to stay and the most luxurious on the island but the service is more than I could have ever asked for.

Wonderful Stay at Royal Andilana! We had an amazing time at Royal Andilana in Madagascar! The hotel is located right by a stunning, pristine beach — perfect for relaxing walks or enjoying the crystal-clear water. The rooms and common areas are very well maintained; cleanliness is clearly a top priority for the staff. The food was another highlight — fresh, varied, and absolutely delicious every day. A special thank you to the animation team, especially Sylvester, who truly stood out with his energy, friendliness, and sense of humor. The entire team deserves praise for their tactful and respectful approach — they were always around to lift the mood and offer fun activities, without ever being intrusive. Their presence made the stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organized, clean, and lively hotel in a beautiful location. We’d love to come back!

Our stay at the hotel was truly wonderful. The animation team deserves special thanks - Sylvester, Lounette, Neimah, and Tatiana brought so much energy every day. Playing volleyball and football with them was great fun, and the evening conversations they organized made the atmosphere warm and friendly. Their dedication really stood out and made the holiday more memorable. The housekeeping team also did an excellent job. The rooms were cleaned daily, and the cleaners were always kind and very helpful. The restaurant staff deserves equal praise - all the waiters were fantastic, especially Jean, Torin, and Orlando, who always served with a smile and made sure guests felt comfortable. A big compliment goes to the gardeners as well. Every morning they greeted us with a smile and a cheerful “good morning”, while keeping the greenery beautifully maintained. Thanks to them, the hotel grounds looked stunning and welcoming. The beach staff also made a difference by being very helpful with the sunbeds, which added to the comfort by the sea. Lastly, it’s worth mentioning the security team, who were always present and attentive, making us feel safe throughout our stay. The only thing missing was a good cappuccino -something the manager should definitely think about. Overall, the hotel offers not only a great place to relax but also amazing people who genuinely care about the guests.
