Appartementen in La Plaine des Cafres

"Heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam onthaal. Heel lekkere zelf gemaakte gelei van lokale vruchten en een kokosnoot om te drinken voor elk van ons. Ruime nette villa met goed uitgeruste keuken met veel servies en bestek zodat je niet na elke maaltijd schotels moet wassen. Zonsondergang vanop het overdekte terras of van naast het grote zwembad. Voor foto's stap je omwille van elektriciteitskabels wel best zo'n 100-150 m verder langs de baan. Steile oprit is "goede oefening" voor elders op het eiland. Het huis ligt aan een drukke weg maar met gesloten vensters en deuren heb je daar helemaal geen last van. Zowat 1 maal per week is er bij de naburige horecazaak luide muziek tot 23 uur, die je ook met gesloten ramen en deuren blijft horen. Wat meer lege kastruimte om iets weg te steken en wat meer licht in de badkamer om u goed te kunnen scheren zou welkom zijn."

"The rooms were spotlessly clean, with housekeeping service twice a day, which we really appreciated. Very friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent — very generous, with fresh eggs made to order. The overall atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. However, we didn’t find the hotel restaurants particularly cosy, and the prices felt a bit steep considering the quality of the food served."

"We truly loved the absolutely remote location of Diana Dea Lodge – it’s a peaceful hideaway surrounded by nature. That said, reaching the hotel is a bit of an adventure: the steep, winding road up requires some confidence, especially when navigating the occasional oncoming car in the dark. The lodge itself is beautifully designed, with warm wooden interiors that create a cozy and natural feel. The atmosphere varied quite a bit during our stay – it was very quiet on weekdays, while the weekend brought in more (seemingly younger) guests, likely there just for a short break. Breakfast was generous and tasty, though it’s pre-prepared rather than à la carte. A highlight was definitely the cappuccino – one of the best we’ve ever had! Dinner was tasty as well: while the portions were on the smaller side and the menu a bit limited (and not cheap), the quality and flavors were excellent. There’s no gym on-site, but the comfort of the room makes up for that. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the bath with a view over the landscape was a real treat. All in all, a special place to disconnect and enjoy the quiet, natural beauty of Réunion."
