Hotel · Anse Severe, La Digue
★★★★★ 4.5 (1311 Google reviews)
✓ Verified listing · Official Seychelles Tourism registerLe Domaine de l'Orangeraie is a boutique hotel spread across a green hillside at Anse Sévère, on the quiet north end of La Digue. It is one of the island's best known addresses, sixty-odd rooms rather than a big resort, and it holds 4.5 stars from more than thirteen hundred reviews. The lush gardens and the Creole-style cottages climbing the hill are what give it its character.
The rooms are spacious cottages, many with an open-air shower that guests single out as a small delight, set among dense tropical planting. Because the property runs up a hillside, the hotel keeps buggies and drivers on standby to carry you and your bags to your door at any time, a detail that comes up warmly in review after review. There is a spa, a pool and a restaurant, and the breakfasts and dinners are described as beautiful and varied.
The service is the other half of the reputation. Staff are described as professional, genuinely friendly and quick to help, from the drivers who appear the moment you need a lift to the small touches like a gift left for a special occasion. It is a hotel that feels looked after, and guests notice.
La Digue is the most peaceful of the main islands, reached by ferry from Praslin or Mahé and crossed mostly by bicycle. Anse Sévère is on the north-west, an easy ride from the jetty and close to some of the island's prettiest snorkelling, with Anse Source d'Argent and its granite boulders a little further south. For a characterful boutique hotel with lush grounds and warm service on La Digue, it is one we are glad to recommend.

Beautiful hotel resort, staff was professional and very friendly. We were happy that they had drivers on standby, to bring us to our cabin as it was located on the hill side. The cabin was very nice and outdoor shower was a fun experience. Thanks for the great memories of your wonderful island.

Everything was very good, although when we got the room we were a little scared because of the distance of the route and the altitude. After it turned out that the hotel's baggies would pick us up and drop us off at any time, the hotel met all our needs. We recommend it to everyone!

A beautiful boutique hotel with an open-air shower in spacious room👍. Lush green grounds, where you get around by buggy — they always arrived quickly. There are hookahs available for those who enjoy them. The breakfast and dinner are beautiful and varied. For Valentine’s Day, they gave guests small gifts and set up a d

Anse Sévère sits on the north-west coast of La Digue, a short and flat bicycle ride from the ferry jetty at La Passe, which makes it one of the easier parts of this car-free island to reach. The beach here is calm and good for snorkelling, with the reef close to shore, and the north-coast beaches run one into the next along the quiet lanes. La Digue is crossed almost entirely by bicycle and ox-cart, and a short ride south brings you to Anse Source d'Argent, the beach of pink granite boulders that is among the most photographed in the world. Ferries connect the island to Praslin in fifteen minutes and to Mahé in about an hour.
