Feel like home at this fabulous guesthouse ”

Words are not enough to describe our warm and authentic stay at Liane De Mai. From the moment we arrived we immediately felt at home. The house has two pretty rooms which are clean and tidy decorated with flowers from the garden. Attached is a spacious bathroom with hot shower, towels (daily changed) and even a tub (not like you will be needing it with all the fantastic beaches around). Surrounding the house is a beautiful garden filled with flowers, tropical fruits and huge bolder blocks, my favorite was the one resembling a shark. The true charm of Liane De Mai is Lauria. She is a remarkable woman which gracefully takes care of her guests. It’s in every detail from how she greets you and asks about your day to how she serves you a yummy homemade breakfast. She truly cares about her guests and even took in to consideration that I had allergies against certain fruits and prepared a special fruit juice for me. After spending a long day at the beach we would always ride our bikes home to the guest house instead of heading out. We even had the opportunity to share dinners with Lauria served in all humbleness with tastes that tickled our senses. A true honor! I have traveled to +45 countries and stayed in hundreds of accommodations and for me Lauria’s simple yet charming guesthouse comes out on top. It is one of those places that is difficult to leave and you which you had booked a couple of more nights. My wife and I are dreaming about coming back to share new unforgettable memories with Lauria. If you want a personal warm place to stay look no further. Spend as many days as possible and forget about the other islands, La Digue is the best! If you don’t believe me ask the French couple that left to Praslin only to return back to Liande De Mai the next day after canceling their hotel on Praslin.

Wonderful guesthouse”

We stayed at Liane de Mai in August 2015 for 9 days at our honeymoon and received the most warm welcome and care during the whole stay. The owner is truly amazing and made our stay unforgettable. She has three guest rooms and a beautiful home and garden. Breakfast is very good and Laurie was even kind enough to prepare a lovely dinner for us that was the best dinner we had on Seychelles. We stayed at Mahe and Pralin as well but the stay at La Digue was the best. Laurie arranged bikes, guided tours and gave many good suggestions for activities during our stay. We had very comfortable and clean rooms. From the house to the beach is not more than 5-10 min on bike depending on which beach you want to stay - in other words great location! We recommend this guest house warmly!!

Comfort in Paradise”

My stay at Liane De Mai was simply superb! Madam Lauria is the sweetest host and genuinely cares about her guest's comfort and needs. She made sure to connect me with all the right people to do everything i wanted while in La Digue. As a solo female traveler, Lauria really made sure that I would feel safe and taken care of the entire time. The guest house itself, is very clean and inviting, it is airy and has lots of light. Nestled up the hill in Bellevue, it is a scenic paradise escape with an abundance of plant life just in the backyard. Bird watchers will also love it here! I even saw a Paradise flycatcher while sitting out by the guava tree. Also the night sky is just phenomenal!! I have never seen so many stars. I would highly recommend staying at this guest house! Not to mention it's a very affordable accommodation for such a great value.

Wonderful stay”

My friend and I had the best time on La Digue - and it was largely due to our wonderful stay at Liane De Mai Guest House. Of course, the island itself was so beautiful that our time there now seems like a dream. Highly recommend Li Mai Guest House for anyone looking for a beautiful cozy stay on La Digue.

Exceptional experience”

We had a great stay at Liane de Mai. It is located quite centrally of La Digue. By foot it is quite a walk to the beaches but only a 5-10 minute bike ride to the nearest beach. Lauria is the owner and is an excellent host. She has arranged bikes and excursions for us at very competitive prices. The room is nice with a good aircon and an attached bathroom. The house has a very nice garden and a veranda. Breakfasts were excellent: coffee/thee, fresh juices, toast with eggs, lots of fruit and a rotating extra (for instance french toast or pancakes). I would definitely recommend staying here.

Home from home!”

I stayed with Loria last week and I had a FABULOUS time. She welcomes you into her home wholeheartedly and she has a beautiful home. My room was large, airy, light and quiet with a very spacious en suite bathroom. The whole house is spotlessly clean and the gardens are manicured to perfection. It is just up the hill, about 100m from the Belle Vue Cafe sign, as you are approaching the steep hill. I cannot say enough how much I enjoyed staying at Liane de Mai and what a wonderful woman Loria is. The breakfasts were staggering, with everything homemade. Some days I was worried I would sink while snorkelling, I had eaten so much! At night it is silent all around (even more than the rest of La Digue!) and the stars are so clear in the sky. I felt extremely sad when I left and I will definitely return

Tropical garden and beautiful Gloria”

If I could give an assessment of 15, I would!!! We stayed at Gloria's house for 5 nights. The next day after arrival, we went on one of the nicest beach (15 min walk), called Anse Petite. Really beautiful. There I sprain my ankle really bad, so after all hospital experiences (La Digua and Paslin), I stayed at the house with Gloria, who took really good care for me. She made me bandages every day with some herbs, give me one really good healing cream, make ice for my ankle,...and she make me coffee during the day as I couldn't walk...I don't have words, to thank her enough. So Gloria, THANK YOU, once more! And special thanks also goes to Andrew - helpful diver from the beach! The house is beautiful, very clean, very spacious and so unique build in rocks, surrounded with outstanding garden. Being here is really something special - something you can not experience at any resort. At first it seems that locations is not the best, but quickly you realize that is perfect in the middle of everything and the island is so small you can ride with a bike everywhere in no time. I must mention the breakfast!!! It was delicious and really a lot. Every day something different and very tasty. Gloria prepared the breakfast with her niece, very friendly lady and a great cook. Here I felt like at home and if I come to La Digue again, I'll definetly stay at Gloria's. I really recommend this place and if you choose this accommodation, you will not regret it - I guarantee you!

“Lovely place to stay and enjoy””

The location is right in middle of the island and with bicycle everything is close. From here house its close to walk up on to of the mountain and you will enjoy a wonedrful 360° few over the island.The house is very pretty, the staff so kind and helpfull, the food they prepared for us just awesome. The rooms are nicely decorated. Gloria is just loveely and she makes you feel like at home. You can see, she loves what she is doing.If we are going back, well we will because Gloria made breadfruit for us and there is a saying, if you eat breadfruit in Seychelles you are comeing back we will definitly stay here again. It's all this little thoughtful details that make this guesthouse 5 stars.

Home far away from Home”

Like in the title. This is unforgettable place with lovely hostess! If you expect to feel the spirit of the real Seychelles and to feel like home with all that warm feeling of safeness... this is the place! However, Lauria and her family is fully professional and you can be sure, that you will meet there nothing but delight. Moreover, the location is great with beautiful surrounding, granits, forest and charming exotic houses, as that where you live in. The best metaphor of this home and host family is the most wonderful garden, which the home is surrounded by. Highly manicured, there are growing the most unusual and tropical plants and fruits , there are high rocks (granits) and forest over all of this... Seeing this you feel like a child which is visiting its Grandma in the country side, which is paradise. You must also know that breakfasts are also like at your Mom's. Fresh fruits, straight from the bush or tree, and all you wish for. The best is homemade papaya and banana jam, it's something really OUTSTANDING! Trust me! Stay here could not be better. You can find yourself in true, authentic earth paradise and to feel authentically like home. We (me and my husband) love this place, this home, this host family, this most beautiful island and we want to go back to our home far away from home someday. We will never forget this beauty and its brightness will be glisten in our memories and undwind in our hearts. Highly recommend, as you see :)

Excellent host. So helpful. Lovely garden view. Convenient location. ”

Excellent wifi at a modest additional fee. We saw lots of other places during our bike rides around the island and were always happy we were staying at Liane Di Mai.

The best stay in Seychelles”

I stayed here with a friend. It has been amazing! The house is very pretty, the staff so kind and helpfull, the food they prepared for us just awesome. If I would come back in La Digue, I will definitly stay here again.

Nice stay ”

Unforgettable memory in La Digue. Lauria is really kind and breakfast was extremely great. I definitely recommend this guesthouse in La Digue.

Excellent”

Lauria, the guesthouse owner is absolutely lovely and made my stay a very memorable one. She is very kind, warm and friendly and looks after her guests as best as she can. The place was very clean and comfortable, Lauria even placed flowers in the rooms grown in her lovely garden. When fruits are in season she will happily offer them to her guests and does not expect anything back. If you want to feel at home I would highly recommend this guesthouse. Thank you Lauria for everything you did for me, especially looking after me when I had the flu!

This is the best value in the Seychelles. ”

This place is awesome. This is the place to stay while you are in La Digue.

Very nice stay”

Very good value for an expensive island.

Great owner!”

My stay was amazing, the owner is a sweetheart. The only problem I had was that she didn't answer emails about how I was to get to the guesthouse, but I rented a bicycle straight from the jetty and the guy who rented it to me took one of my bags and rode with me right to her door. Really wasn't an issue in the end. Her breakfast was great and so much food, so she would pack some of it for me to take with me to the beach for lunch as well. It's a modest bnb not a hotel, but it had everything I needed and more.
