Chalets de Palma

La Digue


Beneath the bougainvillea-draped arch welcoming you at Chalets de Palma is a delightful little pool and eight simple rooms found in four red-roofed bungalows. All rooms are clean and well organised (satellite TV, air-con, a private terrace, daily cleaning). The larger 'superior' options feature sliding glass doors and can accommodate an additional adult or child.

It's now owned by the neighbouring Calou Guest House, which is where most reception duties take place.
