A very basic hotel with bungalows and a restaurant is located directly at the harbour. For those seeking a quiter quieter place for a more relaxed sleep there is a much better hotel on the outskirts of the village (see photos). : A 10-minute walk from the harbour along the road direction [[Antalaha]] brings one leads to an enclosed property (on the right side of the road) with 10 simple but clean bungalows and shared cold water bugget bucket shower/toilet.
