{"product_id":"manafiafy-beach-rainforest-lodge-27836","title":"Manafiafy Beach \u0026 Rainforest Lodge","description":"\u003cp\u003eManafiafy sits on a sheltered bay on Madagascar's south-east coast, in the Sainte Luce area, about two and a half hours by road from Fort Dauphin. Six bungalows are set into the forest edge a few metres from calm water. Four have double beds, with the option to add a single; the other two are partitioned into a pair of rooms, accommodating two adults and three children. Every bungalow is en suite, with a shower running hot and cold water, mosquito nets, and its own terrace — furnished with sun beds and a hammock — facing the bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lodge runs entirely on solar power. A fifteen-foot observation tower on the property is used for whale watching when whales pass through the bay. Guided excursions into the mangroves focus on birds; walks into the rainforest are aimed at finding lemurs. Canoeing on the bay, boat trips to nearby islands, and picnic lunches are also on offer. The fishing village of Manafiafy is close by, and Portuguese ships were recorded anchoring in this bay in 1613.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nearest airport is at Fort Dauphin, the standard arrival point for this stretch of coast.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"phasec-create","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43808527253563,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/27836_2F09.jpg?v=1784350831","url":"https:\/\/plekify.com\/products\/manafiafy-beach-rainforest-lodge-27836","provider":"Plekify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
