About Heure Bleue
Heure Bleue sits on Nosy Be island, Madagascar, with direct access to a private beach on the main beach of Nosy Be. The property offers 18 rooms and two pools: a 15m fresh water pool and a 20m sea water pool. The hotel is 5 km from NOS (Nosy Be International Airport), providing a compact base for island stays.
Public facilities include beach access and multiple swimming options. Room count and the short transfer time from the airport suggest a small-scale operation focused on straightforward beachside amenities rather than extensive services.
Why it stands out
EMPTYJET for its small size (18 rooms), private beach location on Nosy Be and two distinct pools (15m fresh water and 20m sea water). The property's proximity to NOS airport (5 km) supports convenient island access for guests.
