It has taken a couple of weeks to write this review since I do not even know where to begin & also because I want to keep this place to myself and not let anyone know it exists…Tsarabanjina was our best vacation thus far! It is heaven on earth thanks to the beautiful, luscious scenery and the amazing staff. Last year we stayed at another island with villas in the Maldives, but nothing comes close to Tsarabanjina. The corals and quality of stay are simply unmatched. We felt like the only guests on the island quite often during our stay on the 28-villa island. We enjoyed many great conversations with the staff while making our way around the island or at the bar around dinner time. When we arrived, we were greeted by all of the lovely staff and provided with all the info that we needed. Upon the night of our arrival, there was a Malagasy-themed night with dancing and appetizers on the beach. The zebu and fish skewers on this night were tender and delicious. It was a great welcome. We opted for a few extras/excursions to include the romantic lobster/seafood dinner on the hilltop, snorkeling, diving, and the trip to Nosy Komba to see the lemurs. Originally, we did not plan on diving since it seemed fairly intimidating to us as novice-intermediate snorkelers, however Giulio and Martina managed to convince us to give it a try and wow was it worth it..The corals were so full of life and the variety of ocean species was mind-blowing. Giulio and Nestor escorted us on the dive and managed to make us feel 100% comfortable..so much so that we already want to do it again. My wife also had a massage which was incredible and it was so relaxing that she fell asleep twice! The prices of the extras/excursions were extremely reasonable. I do not think you will find such great experiences for a better price elsewhere.. The food was amazing..from the breakfast and lunch buffets to the well-plated three-course dinner paired with a lengthy wine-list. There is something for everyone. As we departed on our boat transfer to Nosy Be, we were the only couple that day so we had the boat to ourselves and most of the staff at the hotel made it out to wave goodbye to us from the beach. There may or may not have been some tears on our part due to the fact that we did not want to leave.. Once again, thank you to Elena (Lovely & warm personality), “Mr. Eric” (the host with the most), Martina, Gabriel (Good luck in the Seychelles), Issa & Hubert (Keep smiling and being funny), Maholiday (Keep making great drinks!), Giulio, Nestor, Gideon, the snorkel/boat guides, receptions, and many many more whose names I cannot remember. Additionally, thank you to those who worked in the shadows but did a fantastic job with the cuisine and keeping the entire island beautiful! Our stay at Tsarabanjina will forever be remembered as one of the greatest times of our lives and we will 100% be back.
