Expert Insight

“The Plumeria is my top choice for clients who want the reliability of a modern boutique hotel without losing that local Malagasy charm. I love the blend of local art and noble wood throughout the property—it makes the space feel very authentic. My tip: after your city tour, spend an hour in the sauna before dinner—it’s the best way to shake off the ‘Highland chill’ before heading to the restaurant for a zebu steak.” — Aleem, Madagascar Specialist
