Soleil de Tsingy, Bekopaka

The beautifully styled Soleil de Tsingy sits high on a hillside overlooking the stunning forest canopy below and is one of just a handful of properties on mainland Madagascar that can be described high-end. Although the drive up is bumpy and uncomfortable, it is only short and the delights that await at the lodge more than make up for it. There are 16 spacious bungalows set in two wings, the north and south wing, either side of the lovely main lodge. Inside they are very spacious with mosquito net draped beds, separate sofas and well-appointed en-suite bathrooms with full amenities. The rooms all have their own private decking areas which look out to the forest below. The main part of the lodge is a split-level bar and dining area leading down to the infinity pool which is very welcomed after a hot day exploring the nearby Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park. The lodge also has a cinema room and pool table, so there is plenty to keep guests entertained. Soleil de Tsingy is undoubtedly the best property in Bekopaka and is 90 minutes from the famed Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park, the main attraction of visiting the area.
