L'Océan Hotel

La Digue


We could talk about the local artwork on the walls, or about how the spacious rooms are squeaky clean (albeit a bit dated), but all you'll care about is the staggering ocean views. All eight rooms (and their private balconies) proffer similar vistas, though those from the two top rooms (7 and 8) are the best.

Anse Patates is a short stroll away and there's a highly rated on-site restaurant.
