The staff here are fantastic! I swear some of them must work 24 hour days as they are always there an available. They are quick with a smile and assistance, even in English, which was limited on the island. They were helpful in arranging transport and laundry as well as just checking in. The room was spacious, impeccably clean and the balcony was a real treat with views of the ocean and a warm breeze. I chose not to have daily service on my room, just occasional. I liked having a choice. Included breakfast had lots of options, some consistent and some that changed day to day. The crepes were delish, as was all the fresh fruit. The same kitchen and staff also serve lunch and dinner, which I took advantage of several times. The menu changed daily and everything I had was excellent and I would order again. The hotel is just up a small hill from a very busy tourist area, Ambatoloaka, which has lots of restaurants, shopping and essentials like pharmacy and ATM. It's a happening area. I'd recommend a lamp or flashlight for the dark hill walk. I always felt safe walking there alone.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The facilities are nice. The location is great, a short walk to the beach and all of the activities, but set up the hill away from all the noisiness of the beach and the clubs at the beach.The staff was amazing and very accommodating. I will definitely stay at this hotel on my next trip to the area. My only one small issue was that food and mini bar items can’t be paid for with credit card at the end of the stay, it has to be cash, which was not initially stated, so make sure you have enough cash or are able to use one of the local electronic payment types. Overall, I think this is one of the best accommodations in the Nosy Be area.

incredibly polite service

Excellent service!!!

Hotel staff very friendly. Professional approach to guests. Very quick to solve any problems

Absolutely fantastic hotel. Rooms are huge, with a massive terrace. Spotless clean rooms and communal areas. Pool area great for relaxing. Great breakfast choice, fresh mango juice. The food menu is changed daily, really fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. Great bar area. The staff are so helpful and accommodating, nothing is to much trouble. We organised trips through the hotel which were reasonably priced. Great location. Would highly recommend

The view looking over the ocean, and the staff were very friendly and helpful, always smiling

Great location with a beautiful view. Friendly and helpful staff. Kettle in the room with tea + coffee

I stayed three weeks at the Villa Ochidees. The staff is very professional and friendly. They are really trying to run a great place. The location is elevated from the touristy street and beach. This means there is a ~3min walk up an unpaved road (this first time you do this it feels unsafe, but it’s totally safe) but in return you get the most amazing panoramic view from your own terrace and from the common spaces. Gorgeous sunsets every day. Its has all modern conveniences (AC, room safe, mini fridge). They don’t price gouge on on-site services like food and laundry. The food is on par with the better restaurants in town. Both Chris and Clairmont speak English especially well and can help you with arranging excursions etc. It’s an excellent boutique hotel. The WiFi can be unstable sometimes but that’s the case for all of Nosy Be. Overall it’s a really special place.

The hotel didn’t have any of the amenities it advertised, the only people who were frequenting it were older European men and young Malagasy girls from the near by village. The food was something to be desired, our chicken meal consisted of two chicken wings. After a few days we checked out and found a better hotel. It was a very unpleasant stay and when I approached management they acknowledged that what they advertised isn’t what they offer, but still refused to give us a partial refund. I would not recommend.

Very nice place with very nice staff. Beautiful run with are conditioning and fridge. I recommend

Almost everything was great. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The room was great. The pool was nice as it's very hot in Nosy Be. Exchange rates were reasonable, and the prices for souveniers and food was no higher than on the main drag. The only surprising thing was that the less expensive rooms included breakfast in the price, while the expensive rooms did not. Very strange. The breakfast was only OK. Strong recommend.

Staff are wonderful. The property is alright. There are a lot of mosquitoes so make sure to.protect yourselves. Far too many flies flying round, however can be prevented if the hotel bought flies stickers to minimise them flying in food. Thank you for making our stay as comfortable as possible.

Fantastic location and wonderful staff who go out of their way to help. Especially Fifi, the manager of the restaurant who takes care of you as if you are family. The only downside is accessibility. You have to walk along a rutted and pot holed road and risk twisting an ankle, especially in the dark. Otherwise, would definitely recommend.

Awesome service but the room was different than described so double check with the hotel.

Eine sehr schöne Zeit mit wirklich sehr netten und hilfsbereiten Menschen

Un endroit que je recommande sans hésiter. L'hôtel est situé au sommet d'une colline avec une belle vue sur la mer et à 5 mn des bars et restaurants. Les propriétaires sont sympathiques et le personnel aimable et compétent. Les chambres sont suffisamment spacieuses et ont une terrasse. Les nuits sont très calmes et rien à dire question propreté. Par contre si vous ne supportez pas les matelas durs, mieux vaut éviter. Vous pouvez sans autre réserver vos excursions à l'hôtel, les prix sont très corrects, pas besoin d'aller voir ailleurs, et on vient vous chercher. De plus les départs des excursions en bateau sont tout près. J'ai eu un problème de lavabo bouché, puis de douche bouchée et de coffre-fort qui ne s'ouvrait plus, mais tout a été réparé très rapidement. Le seul point un peu dérangeant est l'accès à l'hôtel, qui se fait sur env.200m par un chemin de terre et de gros cailloux et qui n'est en bonne partie pas éclairé. Donc quand vous sortez la nuit il faut impérativement éclairer le chemin avec son smartphone, sinon vous risquez vraiment de vous tordre une cheville. Mais c'est un petit inconvénient qu'on peut accepter! Il paraît que ce serait trop coûteux de bitumer l'accès.

Très bien pour le secteur
