The ultimate island luxury experience
Miavana is designed for travellers who want space, privacy and a strong sense of place. The villas sit close to the beach and blend natural materials with generous indoor-outdoor living.
Guests can move from quiet beach time to guided nature walks, snorkeling, diving, helicopter excursions and island exploration. The overall experience is polished, but still deeply connected to Madagascar's wild island environment.
Dining at Miavana
Dining is part of the experience. Menus draw on Madagascar's seasonal ingredients, seafood, tropical fruit and fresh herbs.
Guests can dine at the main oceanfront restaurant, privately in their villa, on the beach, or as part of a special island experience such as a sandbank picnic or candlelit dinner.
