In resorts right on the Comoros Islands
Want to experience a desert island holiday, swimming in the clear sea every day and paddling barefoot in the white sand? The Comoros Islands offer such experiences. Although most of the islands are uninhabited and you won't find any hotels on them, there are a few resorts in the area.
A very popular hotel is the Komodo Resort****, which is located on a small island on a private beach surrounded by its own coral reef. This makes the hotel a great choice for divers or snorkelers.
Another great option is Angel Island Eco Resort***, a simple accommodation on a small island with three beautiful beaches. With only 10 bungalows on the entire island, you'll have a truly unique vacation experience.
