Encircled by pristine coral reefs and impossibly blue waters, the Mitsio Archipelago is a paradisical retreat just 40 miles from Madagascar’s northwestern shores. It is here that the Constance group chose to place their signature African resort, on an enchanting private island blessed with a jungle-clad interior and dazzling white sands.
Your arrival by boat at Constance Tsarabanjina sets the scene. A clutch of palm-thatched bungalows emerge almost imperceptibly from an emerald backdrop of casuarina and badamier trees, facing out onto an expanse of powder-soft sand. Though there is WiFi at the resort, this is a place to truly embrace life off-grid, and feel the buzz of the modern world slowly melt away. The sounds of tropical birds and the gently lapping waves replace the intrusion of televisions and sound systems, while a spot of aqua gym in the translucent waters or a gentle kayak are just a few of the invigorating substitutes for time spent in a fluorescent and sterile fitness centre.
