THE DODO DEN is intended for all those who seek escape, unusual, well-being, 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. We also offer workshops on how to braid coconut leaves … Be curious and indulge yourself.
