Isalo Rock Lodge is hands down the most comfortable, luxurious and well run hotel in the area with stunning views of the sandstone rock formations, a tranquil pool area, very comfortable bar and excellent restaurant serving a good blend of local and Mediterranean ingredients and flavours with a well chosen and reasonably priced wine list. The service matches the well... More

Had a wonderful stay at this hotel, the views are incredible and the rooms are very luxurious. The staff were very friendly and accomodating. The restaurant was also excellent, the breakfast and evening meals were great. Be prepared for some downtime with the electricity as they switch off the generators twice a day but this was not a problem. They... More

We loved the room with the spacious bathroom and private porch that faced the sandstone mountains! The bathtub was really big. It's like having a private pool in the room with windows looking out to the wilderness. It was such a treat being here after many nights in the rustic, local hotels. It is of international standard and even better... More

WOW - hidden gem just outside the main reserve with great landscaped gardens, hiuge rooms with generally 2 double beds with copious mossie nets and the biggest bathrooms experienced in Madagscar. I felt as though I needed to dress up after 10 days of trekking and muddy boots, unkempt hair and rucksack - but the staff made us feel so... More

We recently stayed in Isalo Rock Lodge while travelling Madagascar for our honeymoon - the hotel is stunning and the location breathtaking. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and food was delicious.

The accommodation here is located in the Sandstone Mountains, similar to the Bungle Bungles in Australia but not as dramatic, though still very good, and overlooking the Isalo National Park. The facilites are very nice indeed and are air-conditioned, ensuite and gourmet restaurant. The catch here is the power in not on 24/7. Power is on 6-10am, 2-4pm and 6-11pm.... More

They know how to do it right. Just like the other reviews: this is a lovely hotel situated in the middle of a beautiful location. We stayed here two nights on a two-week tour of the country. This hotel has comfortable beds, nice pillows, soft sheets and thick plush towels. Please note that they count the towels and various other... More
