We had a lovely week at Mantis. It was clean, quiet and relaxing. A huge thank you to all of the staff. Especially the housekeepers who did a perfect job, as well to Pulssa, Tasis, Hendrick, Jena and Brunelda. On friday they had a yoga class with teacher Dafy. The class as the teacher were both amazing. The lobster is recommended.
No gym. There were not many places to be when it was raining. Not so much variety for breakfast. They had eggs and some fruit but else it was quite unhealthy. No oats or yogurt. The food in general was ok.

Overall it felt like a luxurious experience. The staff were fabulous and everything about our stay was amazing, the food was great and had lots of options and everyone was super helpful and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting. Would definitely come back.
The shower wasn’t working too well but that was the only thing the whole time which was manageable

Friendly and attentive staff. Premises well decorated and cleaned. Reliable Wi-Fi. Plenty of activities to do. Large swimming pool. Beautiful sea view all around. The room has a lovely balcony.
Minor repairs needed in the bedroom. The buffet-style dinner wasn't good value-for-money (fortunately, there were other options).

The location is spectacular, the staff are all so helpful and nice. The woman manager went above and beyond to organise tours or transport and help us enjoy our stay. The ability to see whales from the terrace was magical. The food is excellent with an extensive lunch and dinner menu. Room was large and comfortable, anti mosquito plugins and sensible nets were standard. The hotel has a group of giant tortoises as well which were fun to see.
As a suggestion the standard menu could be translated into English from French.

The staff was very kind. The breakfast was very tasty and many choices, English and French and also Malagasy breakfast.
The booking process was a bit difficult because the visa card did not work for booking, we had to do the banking transfer for the reservation.
