Domaine de l'Orangerie

Seychelles

A true-blue island escape at this dreamy resort on the pint-sized La Digue.

In a quiet corner of tiny La Digue island, the squeaky white sand and sky-blue waters set the scene for your Seychelles escape quite nicely. And in this corner is Domaine de l'Orangerie, a beautiful resort with 63 villas that harness the natural beauty that surrounds them. Organic materials let the outside blend with the interiors and even the bathrooms are semi open-air, so a soak under the stars is a must. For even more pampering, the Eden Rock Spa is nestled amongst boulders high above the beach and offers heavenly coconut-infused full-body massages. When you're up for something more active, the resort is well-equipped for a few island adventures too.
