Kimony Beach is a nice long stretch of sandy beach just seven kilometres north of Morondava. Near the airport of Morondava, a red sand road diverts from the main street and leads through fields and palm groves. After about five kilometres the sand road turns into an old coupled street, passing a large open plain with mangroves. This scenery looks like out of Africa and one might expect lions or zebras running by.

Chez Maggie Hotel and Restaurant is located directly on the beach of Nosy Kely, a sandy half island about 1km from the centre of Morondava.
Chez Maggie is one of the first properties on Nosy Kely. The hotel offers several air-conditioned bungalows, two 2-storey chalets, one apartment with two rooms and three in Sakalava/Vezo style built bungalows. All accommodation is nicely set in a green garden with giant palm trees and colourful flowering plants. Guests who do not want to walk the few metres to the beach can jump in the swimming pool for a cool down on hot days. The large thatch-roofed "Le Masoandro Restaurant" serves seafood, meats and cheeses from throughout the country. Every day local fishermen deliver their fresh catch to the restaurant.
Morondava is the gateway to many atractions and activities in the western region of Madagascar. The main atractions include: Tsingy de Bemaraha, Baobab Avenue, Kirindy Forest, tours on the Tsiribihina River, diving at Belo sur Mer, Kirindy-Mitea National Park and traditional sailing on the Mozambique Channel.
The Chez Maggie Hotel is the exclusive booking agent for Remote River Expeditions (RRE). The hotel owner Gary Lemmer can help to arrange tailormade tours for groups or individuals. Some itineraries can be found at Remote Rivers.
