Rules vary across Ambanja. I don't have reliable information about short-term rental regulations or enforcement practices for Ambanja, Nosy Be, and Ankify in Madagascar. These smaller jurisdictions likely have minimal formal STR frameworks, but I cannot verify specific requirements, occupancy rules, density limits, or actual enforcement levels. To provide accurate information, I'd need access to current local ordinances and on-the-ground enforcement data for these specific Malagasy locations, which isn't available in my training data. Verify requirements for the property's jurisdiction.
