La Digue Island Lodge

One of the best places to stay in La Digue, possibly the hotel with the largest grounds. The pool view is fantastic, but since the island has many beautiful beaches, we didn’t really use the hotel’s beach. We explored the whole island by bike, and there’s a bike rental service right at the hotel entrance. The cleanliness of the rooms was acceptable, but we stayed in the yellow house and the soundproofing was poor. In this regard, I think the chalets are a better option

Hotel needs a lot to change to have 3 Stars . Many things don’t work. We have problem to close and open the door. Every day the same. Big problem with WiFi with electric ( we have only two working points in 2 rooms for our 4 persons. Unhelpfull and not nice staff. No chance to stay 30 min longer in room. Before Our leaving We asked a water in glass ( waiting on the table ) but the Staff said it is only for new clients. ||Nice view in first line , very nice beach and. When you catch the ProMotion the price is good. I

A Pleasant Surprise at This 3-Star Resort||We felt it was only fair to share our honest experience at this 3-star resort, especially after reading so many negative reviews beforehand. Truth be told, we were quite anxious before arriving — but we ended up pleasantly surprised.||Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly and helpful staff. We were offered a refreshing welcome drink and received quick access to our bungalow. The small house was charming, with its own terrace and a cozy, clean bathroom. Everything was tidy and well-maintained.||We had booked half board, and both breakfast and dinner were quite good. Considering the resort’s 3-star rating, the food quality exceeded our expectations.||The beach was only a 2-minute walk from our bungalow, with plenty of available sunbeds and natural shade from palm trees. The sea was full of colorful fish, making snorkeling a wonderful experience. The fish were calm and swam close to us — we even had the chance to feed them and capture some amazing footage with our GoPro.||In the evenings, we enjoyed sitting and watching the sunset, which added a magical touch to the atmosphere.||The only downsides we experienced were the very hot bathroom due to poor ventilation, and the lack of internet access — something we hope the resort will improve in the future.||Overall, we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Don’t be discouraged by all the negative reviews — this place has its charm!||||Snezana og Ronny

Our stay at La Digue Island Lodge was amazing . The beachfront chalets offer breathtaking views of the ocean. The staff was warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. The property is lush, peaceful, and perfectly located near Anse Source d’Argent. The food was fresh and delicious, especially the Creole buffet! Highly recommend this place for anyone seeking relaxation, beauty, and authentic island charm.

We stayed in an annex to the larger resort across the street. We did not know that we will stay outside the resort when we booked. The Annex is very basic, don't expect much, not 4* for sure. Everything is a bit old and worn and outdated but useable. The challenge in the La Digue is that hotels are expensive, so you can't expect much if you pay less than 300 USD per night. Breakfast was also very basic and the internet was lousy everywhere and every day. |The pool area, including the toilets, was also very worn out. Sun umbrellas where missing. Check-in was slow, and the prices in their restaurant were unreasonably high, so we didn't eat there. All in all, it's not a place that leaves memories, just an okay place to stay. The hotel offers transport from and to the ferry. Location is fine with a supermarket in front and a bike rental at the main gate of the hotel for a good price.

We have just returned from our holiday in the Seychelles and spent three nights at La Digue Lodge. I don't understand all the negative comments at all: - According to some reviews, the beach is supposed to be ‘dirty’ – that is absolutely not true. We didn't even have seaweed on the beach, even though it is supposed to wash up more frequently in July and August. - The food was absolutely adequate and also good. We were always among the last to arrive in the evening and there was still food left over from all the dishes. - The claim that the internet only works in the lobby is also not true... all of us had no problem accessing the Wi-Fi with our mobile phones throughout the entire complex. - The staff were always polite, attentive and helpful, and the room was clean. - We didn't have any bugs in the rooms at all. Oh... at dinner, there was a crab at the buffet when everyone had left... the dining room is right by the sea, so if you don't like that, you're in the wrong place on an island, in my opinion. - Some people have complained about the annoying birds that land on tables and pick up leftover food – as if they were in Hitchcock's ‘The Birds’. Here, too, it should be said that the birds are not annoying at all, and if one should land on a chair or table, it will immediately fly away with a wave of the hand. As I said, the dining room is an open space, and I find it enchanting to be able to enjoy the sea air and nature while eating. In addition, the view of Praslin is priceless in my opinion. - Yes, the hotel complex is not hyper-modern, futuristic, with everything controlled digitally – but I think that's exactly what makes up the enchanting charm of a hotel on a small island like La Digue. - The air conditioning also worked perfectly and is not ultra-loud, as some people claim. - The garden is truly beautiful and very carefully tended by the staff. - The hotel's location is really ideal and there is a bike rental shop right outside the door. You can reach all the important places in 20 minutes. In conclusion, we had a wonderful stay and thoroughly enjoyed our time at La Digue Lodge. We would definitely like to come back :-)

Very friendly reception staff. The rooms are not cleaned thoroughly. A dead cockroach lay in my room for 3 days. The service in the restaurant is terrible. The worst I have ever seen. Fruits and vegetables are constantly running out. You have to wait 15 minutes for a new portion. The waiters do not pay attention to you on principle. To get coffee, you have to ask 2-3 times.

Remote island and quite expensive to reach (like everything in Seychelles), but boy what an adventure: wonderful sights, perfect smooth sand, cabins right at the edge of the sea, a postcard water color and plenty of activities for any taste. At least once in a lifetime, this is a must visit place.
