Villa Hortensia

“Amazing view from the balcony, spacious and clean room”

“Marlette was really really friendly. She reacted smart and kind as we had to take another room than it was planned. By this reason, we had a personal little sightseeing tour through a part of La Passe, when they brought us from Villa Hortensia to the other room by car. As an apology she cooked a dinner for us at Villa Hortensia with the most tasty fish we've ever had. The room we had, was very tidy everytime. There is a little veranda in front of the room, where we sat and e.g. ate lunch. From there we had a reassuring view to the lovely and beautiful, little garden. The location was no more than 20 minutes from every touristic point. Until this I can say the same for Villa Hortensia itself as I to a close look because of all the flowers everywhere and the beautiful place with this view down to La Passe. Near our room there is some constuction work (as it is the case around the whole island) but even when we skipped the midday sun (11:30am - 2:30pm) in our room/at the veranda, it was very quiet and we relaxed so good. Of course it was absolutely quiet in the evening (at least from 6pm) and there was no noise but the occasionally falling rain. we had everything we needed and more (air condition, tv, fridge, little kitchenplace). Marlette was there every day for a short view if every thing and every guest is ok. So we had the possibility to ask for everything. She organised bikes btw. We had a wonderful time and also wonderful experiences as we saw so much of the beauty of nature that La Digue offers - it's what should be the main reason to go here, not the enclosed luxury resorts. Our expectation were exceeded (to emphasize that the price-performance ratio was 10 of 10!!) I've been to seychelles before and thought to know what I would get. Thanks to marlette, her husband, her employees and best wishes to them.”

“Rooms are spacious and clean,”

“New apartment, with nice terrace view. The location of the accomodation is 10 minute walk from the jetty. The final part is quite steepy, but you can book a pick-up from the jetty directly with accomodation, when travelling with big lugage. The reward for this steepy part is nice view from the room and you get a welcome drink upon your arrival :-) Everything was clean. It is family-run villa, so you can also manage directly here the cruise for nearby islands for reasonable price. The family is really nice and friendly. There is a supermarket in 5 minute walking distance.”
