La Digue Beach

We traveled from Mahé with high hopes for a wonderful experience at this beach, but unfortunately, our expectations were shattered within the first 5 minutes. The neighboring hotels are exorbitantly priced, while there are much more affordable options available. The arrival procedures were extremely disorganized, and we had legitimate concerns regarding the security of our card number and security code. On a positive note, the hotel rooms were well-maintained and clean. However, it was disappointing that there was no direct access to the beach from the hotel. One redeeming aspect was the enjoyable bike ride, although it came at an additional cost. Based on our experience, we cannot in good conscience recommend this place.

During our honeymoon, we spent five nights at this hotel in one of the garden rooms and had an amazing experience. The food was outstanding, the staff, especially Caroline, were very friendly, and the view of the sunset from the pool was absolutely breathtaking. Additionally, we were pleasantly surprised to receive a special dinner and a bottle of Champagne for our honeymoon, which was incredibly generous. It's worth noting that there is complimentary water available throughout the day, although during dinner there is a charge of 80 SCR for it, which we found a bit unusual. However, there were a few challenges we encountered. When we arrived, we had to change rooms due to mold on the ceiling in both the bathroom and bedroom. The new room didn't have this issue, but it was evident that the rooms could use some renovation as they were showing signs of age. On a positive note, the bed was extremely comfortable and the duvet was lovely. Additionally, the beach itself isn't ideal for lounging as it's located right next to the harbor and surrounded by a wall of stones. Considering the price, we would likely choose to stay elsewhere next time, but if that doesn't bother you, you'll definitely have a wonderful time here!

This hotel was our first stop on our honeymoon. When we arrived, the weather was quite poor with heavy rain. We took the Cat Cocos ferry to La Digue, and as planned, a staff representative was there to pick us up and take us to the hotel. The hotel is situated in La Digue, and there are a few things to note about the island. It's not very large, and there aren't many accommodation options available. The overall atmosphere is relaxed, and the best way to get around is by renting a bicycle, which is conveniently located next to the hotel for approximately €10 per day. The hotel is divided by a road with moderately busy traffic, mostly bicycles. On one side facing the sea, you'll find the pool area and restaurants, while on the other side, there's the reception and accommodation area. Upon arrival at the reception, we were greeted with drinks and moist towels. Our room was also ready quickly. The hotel's better rooms are located on the hillside, and a golf cart is provided for transportation 24/7. However, there are limited golf carts, so sometimes we chose to walk downhill ourselves when going to dinner in the evenings. The room had a romantic ambiance, but unfortunately, our honeymoon wasn't acknowledged. The hotel's honeymoon policy only applies to couples married within the past 6 months, and we got married 7 months ago. It seemed a bit short to us, but we understood it was a hotel rule. Despite this, the room had a fantastic view and an overall old-world charm. However, there were small ants present that were difficult to get rid of. They would immediately appear near candy bags or soda bottles, and even in the bed. On the positive side, there were no mosquitoes, and a staff member would place a mosquito net on the bed every evening, which we appreciated. There were ongoing improvements being made on the hotel grounds, which sometimes caused noise disturbances. Additionally, there was a rooster in the area that woke us up with its crowing at 3:15 AM, followed by consistent noise every hour. This noise was clearly audible in the rooms. The area next to the hotel was also untidy, and on the other side, there was a cemetery. The overall service level at the hotel was average, but the pricing at the restaurant was extremely high. Especially the cost of beverages was hard to justify. For example, Seybrew beer cost €10 per bottle at the

This resort was the best place I've ever stayed at! My spouse and I chose this location for our honeymoon. The view was absolutely stunning, and as soon as we stepped onto the balcony, we could hear the soothing sound of waves crashing, birds singing, and even a rooster waking us up in the morning. The level of hospitality we experienced was truly exceptional! In the evening, they would come to make our bed just before bedtime, which was a delightful surprise in addition to the usual morning housekeeping. They also arranged for a buggy to transport us between our room and the reception area. Furthermore, since we had an early morning check-out, they even packed us a breakfast to-go, which was an incredibly thoughtful gesture ❤️ I would definitely choose to stay here again!

We stopped by for lunch, so we didn't have the chance to comment on the rooms. The beach is absolutely stunning, offering a picturesque view. The food was excellent, and the staff was friendly and accommodating.
