Nice small hotel

Nice small lodge in a very nice location of the island. Good food even if there is not much choice. Good service, friendly staff There is no Wi-Fi in the rooms and the access road to the lodge is quite bad, fortunately only for a final short stretch. It was a good experience

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This was an excellent stay and a wonderful way to discover the many things that Rodrigues has to offer. Jean and his staff did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. The lodge prioritises natural access to the beach and a wonderful sense of secludedness. Some thoughtful amenities are included and activities and tours can be organised. Food was a highlight. Loved every moment!
