Chez Eugénie

Nosy Be


There are just five rooms at this little hotel and restaurant owned by a French and Malagasy couple. It has two separate wings joined under one big thatched roof to form a dining room (plat du jour Ar19,000). Abodes are small, but pretty, with firm mattresses and high-quality linens. There are no sea views, but it's 200m from Andilana beach.
