ABOUT US
There’s a new way to stay in the city: live like a local.
At Mahafaly Hotel & Resort, we believe there’s a better way to stay in the city—one that feels like home. As a family-owned business founded in 2023 by the couple Diego Cerqueira and Nathalie Rak, we apply traditional family values to everything we do, from the way we welcome our guests to the way we operate our hotel. Hospitality, warmth, and genuine care are at the heart of our service, ensuring every guest feels like part of our extended family.
True to our name—Mahafaly, meaning “to make happy” in Malagasy—our mission is to create an exceptional, heartfelt experience that goes beyond accommodation. We strive to be a premier destination where luxury meets authenticity, setting new standards in Madagascar’s hospitality industry. Our commitment to excellence and sustainability ensures that every guest leaves with cherished memories.
Being deeply rooted in our community, we have built close relationships with local farmers, artisans, and suppliers, allowing us to offer fresh, locally sourced products while supporting the region’s economy. We also take pride in working with children’s outreach programs, helping to uplift and empower the next generation.
At Mahafaly Hotel & Resort, you’re not just a guest—you’re family. Let us welcome you with the warmth and care that define us.
