Description

The rooms are designed simply but with comfort in mind, offering bright and spacious accommodations that help guests relax during their stay on La Digue Island. Air conditioning, WiFi, and a variety of recreational activities like billiards, fishing, diving, and massage services are available. Guests will find a restaurant and bar on site, plus family rooms and facilities for disabled guests. The property offers free bike rentals, allowing visitors to explore the island conveniently. Check-in starts at 13:00, and check-out is by 10:00. The hotel’s rating of 9/10 reflects its high guest satisfaction, particularly praising the attentive service and peaceful surroundings.

Location

Located in La Passe on La Digue Island, Calou Guest House is approximately 15 km from Praslin Island’s airport (PRI). The nearest sandy beach, Anse La Reunion, is about 870 meters away, while the hotel’s direct beachfront access is also noted. The guest house is about a 10 to 15-minute walk from the port, making it accessible for travelers arriving by boat. The hotel is situated on a quiet side street, providing a tranquil atmosphere away from busy areas but still close enough to the center of La Digue for convenience.

Tips

  • Book early to secure one of the spacious bungalows, as there are only five on site.

I highly recommend this guesthouse. in a very quiet area and surrounded by nature. the rooms are very spacious and very clean. the breakfast is also very good. from the port to the location is around 10 - 15 minutes walk. I will definitely come back to this little paradise. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We loved it !

We initially booked Chalets de Palma, but once we arrived, we got upgraded rooms at the Calou Guest House that belongs to the same owner.
The driver was waiting for us on arrival and helped transfer us with our luggage from the boat to our rooms.
The service is outstanding; Nadine went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant.
We have a welcome drink with a full explanation about La Digue Island.
When I asked for a yoga mat, I had it delivered to our room within a minute.
The next day the bikes were waiting for us outside in the garden.
The rooms were beautiful, spacious, and lovely decorated with fresh flowers on arrival.
The breakfast was delicious, with different daily options and local fruits on nicely decorated tables.
We felt very welcome and relaxed during our four-day stay on the island.
The place is stunning, and I would recommend it to everyone who wishes to feel the home atmosphere.

The decoration was great, the location was as well superb (on a side street of La Digue but peace and quiet is all you need). The room was big and well organized.
The hosts are super nice and the breakfast is amazing.
We rented bikes for our stay.

Some room for minor improvements,

In our room there were only swinging doors to the bathroom/toilet, giving view directly on the toilet, so if you like some privacy it’s not the most convenient setting.
The beds are two single put together; so in the middle of the night there would be a gap in between. I know it’s the case for most places, but a proper double bed would be great!

The patio / outdoor light can be less bright, more Amber or yellow

Over all was great abd would surely recommend.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
