Property Details
Sainte-Marie is a tropical island just off the East coast of Northern Madagascar. Once known for being a haven for pirates and vagabonds, it is now a treasure island for those seeking palm-lined beaches, coral reefs and relaxation.
A new concept of hospitality with ecological influence is born in this unique and still preserved environment: PRINCESSE BORA LODGE & SPA. The hotel is located in a vast palm tree grove right next to a white sand beach and the lagoon.
To make your stay even more memorable we strongly recommend you to go and visit Coco Bay and Clipper Bay, two private beaches belonging to the hotel which are surrounded by a large forest of coconut trees.
Staying at the PRINCESSE BORA LODGE & SPA means enjoying luxury and authenticity all in one go. Let your senses guide you
Sainte-Marie Island is a paradise bathed by the warm streams of the Indian Ocean. The PRINCESSE BORA LODGE & SPA is nested in a large palm tree grove in the southern part of the island.
Coco Bay, a private beach with a palm tree grove belonging to the hotel, is located in the northern part of Sainte-Marie Island. It is accessible either by 4x4 or by boat. The place includes a villa, an annexe, and a hotel guide that accompanies the day trips.

In the wine cellar of the PRINCESSE BORA LODGE & SPA you will get the opportunity to (re-) discover the grapes which were imported from Europe into South Africa. Furthermore, you will get the chance to taste the same grape varieties but grown in different countries (South Africa, Chile, Argentina, and France).
SPA
Inspired by ancestral traditions of Africa, the Jungle Spa in the heart of Madagascar uses an impluvium well, meaning a central well which collects rainwater in order to use its benefits for the different treatments.
The Spa is a jungle delight, a haven for total rejuvenation. A bath with a citrus fruit scrub is followed by a nurturing skin peel using wild honey which leaves you revitalised. Finish your treatment with a pampering massage using natural ingredients such as combava and soothing vanilla.
ACTIVITIES AND EXCURSIONS
The PRINCESSE BORA LODGE & SPA organises, in collaboration with the best diving centre of the island, diving sessions on coral reefs to observe the exuberant marine life with its many tropical fish species, as well as fishing trips.
