Activities and specials:
- There are only a handful of 'real' hotels on La Digue, and the Chateau St. Cloud definitely counts as one of them.

- Tours of the island, snorkelling trips, and offshore barbeques can all be organised by the hotel.
Description:
The Chateau St. Cloud offers unbeatable value for money considering the quality of the estate. As one of the few 'real' hotels on La Digue, the upscale estate offers a lot to guests, with 24 spacious rooms housed in beautiful colonial-style buildings. The grounds of the Chateau were once used as a coconut plantation, but these days they form the surroundings of this special hotel, reminiscent of a time long ago when La Digue was perhaps more peaceful than in modern times.
The hotel is located in a vast tropical garden that contains a number of native Seychelles plant species. The whole estate forms part of the small coastal village of Anse Réunion, which lies within walking distance of the eponymous beach, famous for its stunning sunset views, where the sun disappears behind Praslin, lighting up the sky with an amazing display of colours. Thankfully, La Digue's other beaches are just as picturesque, and most can be reached swiftly by bike thanks to the Chateau St. Cloud's central location. The most famous beach of these is probably Anse Source d'Argent, which is consistently named as one of the most beautiful beaches in the whole world.
The Chateau St. Cloud offers much to its guests, including a large pool at the heart of a tropical garden. There is also a restaurant, well-known throughout the island for its delicious food and casual, colourful atmosphere. We'd recommend booking half board at the hotel so you can experience it for yourself.
All in all, anyone looking for an upscale hotel-based holiday at the heart of La Digue can be sure of getting their money's worth at the Chateau St. Cloud.

Room much smaller than on Praslin even though booked as a family room. The air conditioning is very loud and only blows at the highest level. Despite our repeated requests, no air conditioning technician was sent to solve the problem. However, it couldn't be endured without air conditioning, which is why we hung towels in front of it. The beds are rock hard. Here too we asked for a remedy. Then, with much reluctance, a thin blanket was placed on top as a topper, but that didn't do much good. Food was rather average. Both breakfast and dinner had a very limited selection. Overall, the staff is pretty unmotivated. We were probably too spoiled here from our previous stay on Praslin at the Duc de Praslin. ???? 13 turtles were housed in an enclosure that was far too small and were lying in their own excrement. We didn't understand why so many animals had to be locked up here. We explicitly chose the location because it sounded very nice in the description. Everything was easily accessible by bike. We wouldn't go to this hotel again. Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
Beautiful hotel complex and good location for me (because it's a bit off the beaten track near the port), great pool, nice service, bike rental, great gardens, actually nice rooms. Cons: We had a bungalow instead of the standard room we had booked and the bungalow was also quite nice, but the bathroom needed updating. The shower was just a tube that looked out of the wall. Unfortunately the water failed several times. Most of the rooms and bungalows on the complex have already been renovated... The breakfast was OK, there was hardly any variety and some of the food was not that fresh. The water from the tap is said to be drinkable, but smelled unpleasant and didn't taste good. Unfortunately the hotel juices etc. were also prepared with the water. The accommodation has an enclosure with tortoises, which is unfortunately far too small and cramped for the large number of animals. Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
