Awesome hotel ruined by poor hotel management

The hotel is right next to the beach and the rooms are beautiful each with private balconies or terraces and sea view just steps from the beach. At first we thought we were in Paradise. How did they ruin it? 1) They turn the power off around 2AM so that you wake up sweating buckets since now your fan room becomes sauna room. This is despite them saying they only turn off the power between 10AM to 4PM. 2) They are the only restaurant on the beach which never had cold drinks. We wanted to stay and enjoy the ambience which was quite lovely. But warm beer, warm water, warm coke - no thanks. 3) Lazy, apathetic staff who did not care to fix any of the issues we mentioned. As a result we ended up spending most of our time at other hotel restaurants further down the beach.

Nice beach hotel away from it all.

I came to this hotel mainly in order to visit the nearby Reniala nature reserve (baobabs). The drive to Ifaty from Tulear was over a rough and rutted road. Best to travel this road by day. There are few facilities at Ifaty. Specifically, I had no access to telephone, television, newspapers, or Internet. Electricity from generator, only solar-heated hot water. The room was pretty basic, but comfortable enough. Staff was helpful and friendly. Reasonably good beach. Good location. Restaurant and bar OK.

Très cher et hôtel à moitié abandonné.

Les photos ne correspondent plus du tout à la réalité. L'hôtel vieilli et n'est pas entretenu, la salle de bain fait peine à voir. La couverture sur le lit était plus que moyenne niveau propreté. Très honnêtement, 50€ la nuit c'est très cher payé par rapport à la qualité de l'hébergement. La filtration de la piscine ne semble pas fonctionner. Cependant je mets une mention spéciale pour le personnel, qui est adorable et aux petits soins. Nous avons très bien mangé, le service était impeccable. Vraiment dommage car cet hôtel a un vrai potentiel mais les propriétaires l'ont sûrement abandonné a son sort ... Malheureusement, impossible de laisser les photos sur l'appli hôtel.com, et pourtant elles valent le détour...

Super Hotel

Hotel sehr schön, super nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Hervorragendes Essen. Ich war ein Tag krank und kriegte spezielles Essen, der Tee wurde aufs Zimmer geliefert. Negatives: da keine Fensterscheiben, manchmal etwas laut. Man kann nicht mit Visa bezahlen, am Strand vor dem Hotel wird man immer von Händler/Verkäufer belästigt, das stört die Ruhe extrem! Ansonsten super Hotel und empfehlenswert!

Idyllische, entspannte Atmosphäre

- Ocean Suite mit großer Dachterrasse mit Patio und Blick über den Ozean lohnt sich! - Bad jedoch enttäuschend, ungepflegt, eklige Dusche - gesamtes Haus sehr liebevoll und individuell gestaltet, könnte aber gepflegter und sauberer sein. Ist sicherlich schwierig, da alles offen ist, auch keine Fenster, nur alte Holzlamellen. Aber ich denke, es wird auch einfach nicht gesehen, da das Personal nicht entsprechend geschult ist und aus dem Fischerort kommt - sehr friedliche, entspannte und ruhige Atmosphäre, jeden Abend toller Sonnenuntergang - Restaurant direkt am Strand, morgens mit Blick aufs Fischertreiben, abends in den grandiosen Sternenhimmel und auf Lichter der Fischer auf See - Personal sehr freundlich, insbesondere die Anwesenheit des Geschäftsführers hat den Aufenthalt sehr persönlich gestaltet - sehr gutes Essen, extra Karte für Vegetarier - am Strand wird man oft von Verkäufern und für Massagen angesprochen - im Wasser viele Seeigel und Baden nur bedingt möglich, auch weil es nur flach oder bei Ebbe weit weg ist - morgens wird man sehr früh von Vogelgezwitscher und den Fischern geweckt, die ihre Piroggen seetüchtig machen - abends laute Musik aus dem Ort und bellende Hunde zu hören - Lagerfeuer und Barbecue haben leider nicht stattgefunden - Rezeption entweder nicht besetzt oder unmotiviert, abgesehen von der Managerin Julice - das warme Wasser kommt nur tröpfelnde aus der Dusche - Pool eher für die Optik, nicht zum Schwimmen geeignet
