THE DODO DEN is intended for all those who seek escape, unusual, well-being, The surprises, the fun. This cottage has been thought in detail to let go, relax, the pleasure of a stay out of standards: you will certainly not be "like at home"… In its educational garden (1st prize 2018 «Jardins Fleuris»), you will find a wooden cabin, made for children and adults, allowing access to a gateway that will lead you to a hut perched on the roof of the cottage. Ideal for aperitif or breakfast, with panoramic views of the lagoon and sunset. You have a fully equipped kitchen, an indoor dining area and terrace, with hammock, barbecue, a sitting area with a huge bench (sleeping for two), a bedroom very cozy double master bedroom "Robinson Crusoé", in driftwood, with a double bed and two single beds (children love it), a bathroom with shower very original. A treasure hunt awaits you: it’s up to you to flush out the 23 sleeps hidden in the cottage… This Den is truly a local reference in terms of sustainable development and alternatives which has been awarded the first "Respect for Nature" award by the Federation of Reunion Tourism. We also offer workshops on how to braid coconut leaves … Be curious and indulge yourself.
