Comfortable and cosy Guesthouse on La Digue... and other Seychelles Hotel/Accommodation Reviews

Fleur de Ly's, La Digue (Guest House). Very near of one of the beaches (approx. 50 m) and near the harbour (approx. 300 m) Located in a lovely garden. The bungalow consists of a living room with open kitchen, a very nice bed room and a bath room. All really nicely furnished. Approx. Eur 60,-/person/night - self catering plus air condition in the bed room (on request) which seemed to be very expensive in our opinion (as far as I remember approx. 10€ for half a day (evening/night). The rooms have a fan, though, which was not sufficiant for us, as it was really hot in the evening/night.

Unique Qualities: 1. Fleur de Ly's - run by a British couple, very well kept, 4 bungalows in a beautiful garden. Self catering. Maid offers cooking, which is very advisable to ask for. To sit out on 'your terrace' in front of 'your bungalow' having an supurb 3 course creole meal, is absolutely great and very romantic and cheaper than in the restaurants (approx. EUR 13-15/Pers. for a 3 course meal)!

The only con: We found the rate for the air condition was somewhat "naughty"!

Directions: 1. Fleur de Ly's - La Digue, situated in a lovely garden, not directly at a beach but this of no importance on La Digue - to our opinion! )

Casa de Maestro has nicely furnished rooms, fan (no air con available!) and a tiny simming pool! Half board included! The food was surprisingly good, always prepared freshly and worth the price! It's not direct on the beach - just a street in between the beach and this guesthouse. A 3star hotel is within walking distance as well as small shops.

We stayed there in June and would not advise to stay on this side of the island at that time of the year, as there were tons of seagras on the beaches due to the monsun!

It did not really effect us, as we were sigtseeing the island most of the time anyway, but it would have been nice to be able to just let the day end on our "local" beach.

Unique Qualities: Nice guesthouse, good food!

We were informed that a 4star hotel on their areal was planned at the time. This might have been finished by now, nearly 3 years later, so we are not sure, if the guesthouse still exists!

This is an appartement house with nice furnishing, the appartements consisting of one living room with open kitchen, 2 bed rooms and a bathroom. In fact it was too large for us, just being 2 people and it would certainly fit a family /friends of 4! The price stays the same. The house is situated right in the mountains of Mahe-Island. As a car is included within the rent, the price is really more than worth it (evenf if you are only 2 people)and makes this accommodation a perfect one for excursions on the island. We stayed there for 3 days.

Unique Qualities: In the mountains with lovely views, surrounded by 'jungle' and a car included, which is very handy for sightseeing on the island!

The Augerine is located directly at the Beau Vallon Beach and is next to a 3* Hotel with its appropriate fascilities. This Hotel can be reached within 2 Min. walk - in fact the guesthouse is located on a part of their area - just with a fence and (fence door) in between.

Unique Qualities: Nicely furnished, well kept. Friendly staff. "Familiy atmosphere". Air Condition. Nice Garden with direct access to the beach !!!!!. Breakfast included. Very good value indeed!
