Accommodation in Madagascar: Centrest Sejour

As the closest lodge to the town it is a good place for those who would like to wander down, but guests should be aware that the accommodation around Ranomafana is fairly basic and this is no exception.

Our Rating: Simple

Centrest Sejour

Ranomafana National Park

This lodge is on the edge of Ranomafana, on one side facing the town, and on the other overlooking the mountains and rainforest of the national park.

The main lodge has thirteen standard rooms, with tiled floors, whitewash walls and pine covered ceilings. The rooms themselves are simple, but have all the essentials, with double or twin beds, an en suite bathroom with showers, and mosquito nets. Building work is also in progress to build a further block of standard rooms, this is due for completion in early September 2007.

On a hill slightly above the main lodge there are 9 traditionally built bungalows with thatched roofs and shared facilities.

There is a bar and good restaurant, as well as a small shop.
