Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to visit Les Palmiers and explore Madagascar's Northeast?
We recommend visiting Les Palmiers during Madagascar's dry season, generally from May to November. The weather is more predictable then, making travel to this remote region much smoother and allowing for comfortable exploration of Pointe à Larrée. While the wet season brings lush greenery, it can make roads impassable and limit outdoor activities.
What unique wildlife can we expect to see around Les Palmiers and Pointe à Larrée?
While Les Palmiers is a comfortable base, the true draw is the incredible biodiversity of Madagascar's Northeast and nearby Pointe à Larrée. We love exploring the surrounding forests for unique lemur species, vibrant chameleons, and the island's extraordinary flora. The lodge can arrange guided walks and excursions to truly immerse you in this unique ecosystem.
How do we get to Les Palmiers, given its remote location in Madagascar's Northeast?
Reaching Les Palmiers is part of the adventure, reflecting its truly remote setting in Madagascar's Northeast. We typically arrange a combination of domestic flights to a regional airstrip, followed by a robust 4x4 transfer, sometimes even incorporating a scenic boat journey depending on the season and exact location. It's a journey that underscores the untouched beauty awaiting you.

Les Palmiers truly lives up to its 'welcoming base' description; it feels luxurious and timeless, a serene haven after a day of exploration. We appreciate the comfortable bungalows, often with private verandas overlooking lush gardens, and the attentive service that makes you feel genuinely cared for. The food, often featuring fresh local ingredients, is a delightful taste of Madagascar.
