Lovely host and exceptional environment
Very warm welcome, very nice staff. Jacques the boss is very caring for the duration of the stay, and even before and after! Beautiful view from the hotel and pool. Access to the beach is not so simple, due to bad weather that quickly degraded the path. Jacques is very good advice for visits and excursions. Thank you again for the end-of-stay surprise !! 😉

Relaxing stay with beautiful views!
We stayed for five nights with a three year old and 7 month old baby. Both our children were sick when we arrived and Jacques was very helpful in getting a doctor to our room within hours of arriving. The pool was clean and we loved swimming in it every day. The food was delicious and the we loved how the menu changed each day. They also did a wonderful job accommodating our vegetarian taste. Mont Passot is nearby and our three year old liked the tuk-tuk ride on the way up. Great place to relax and move slowly. 🙂

Stay at the Big Blue
I spent 5 very pleasant days at the Big Blue. The view is exceptional, the staff is charming and caring. Advice for excursions is welcome. The hotel is located outside the city, quiet guaranteed. It is close to the beautiful Andilana beach that can be easily reached by tuk-tuk. We also took advantage of the nearby pier which allows us to spend a pleasant day on the small island of Sakatia and swim with turtles. In short, an unforgettable stay.

Relaxation and letting go
The view is superb, to be enjoyed from the pool. The staff is at the top😉 Ideally placed to enjoy the wildest and most authentic part of Nosybe. The beautiful beach of Andilana is close, accessible on foot or by tuktuk. Loved it😊😍

The big blue - Excellent hotel
We are delighted with our stay at Le Grand Bleu. Céline and Jacques, dynamic and friendly couple fold in 4 to satisfy you. The services of the hotel are complete (accommodation, food, activities, transport, linen etc.). The team on site is lovely and helpful. Your concerns become their priorities. We can only recommend this little piece of paradise for your next stay in Nosy-Be. Thank you to the whole team for the very good welcome.

A home away from home
As a frequent traveller who has been stuck in my home country, Ethiopia,for over a year, this trip was exactly what I needed. What you see on the pictures is exactly what you will get : breathtaking view on Andilana and the surrounding islands.
My stay at The Grand Bleu Hotel has been flawless to say the least.
Jacques and Céline welcomed me as one of their own, making sure all of my needs were catered to and making me feel like a princess. They are very kind and passionate about what they do.
They are both very resourceful and will share all the right tips about Nosy Be and beyond. They have the best contacts for excursions and related activities (i.e scuba diving, fishing and so on).
The lovely ladies of the staff are the right mix of professional and caring.
Needless to say I was well taken care of.
The food is amazing! Make sure to try their shrimp curry with the coconut flavored plantain purée as a side.
Don't miss out on their homemade spiced rhum or as they call it in french "Rhum arrangé"... Céline has a mix flavors you won't find anywhere else!
Definitely going back, sooner than later!

My happy place
Le grand bleu is one of the best places I have ever stayed at in many years of traveling. The owners and the staff make you feel at home. They work endlessly to make sure your stay is safe, organized, peaceful and fun. The food is spectacular every single day and the views are just about everything you need to calm the soul. Again, they went above and beyond to accommodate my needs, including payment, money exchange, covid testing, airport arrangements, and excursions. This have been two restoring weeks for my soul, and I will forever be thankful for this small paradise on earth.

Excellent séjour au grand bleu
A great Christmas with a local atmosphere at the top. An excellent meal served in a family atmosphere. A team with great care for all customers. Comfortable bungalows to rest well. A more than satisfying stay, which makes us want to come back. Thanks for everything.
