Reviews of Buisson Guesthouse

An absolutely wonderful stay here at Buisson Guesthouse. Such a warm welcome from Doris and lots of very helpful tips and friendly chat. Doris kindly sorted us out with bike rental at half the price of other providers. Excellent room with a great deal of care taken over presentation. Very clean - everything spotless. Excellent breakfast in the morning with pancakes, omelettes, a fruit platter, etc. A truly first rate experience. Thank you so much!

Nothing - it was perfect!

The room was clean and lovely. The bathroom area was nice and spacious. We rented bikes directly from the guesthouse. They did not change gears, but they got us around the island. Breakfast was delicious and we certainly did not go hungry! We really enjoyed visiting with Doris and Charles during our stay! They were so kind to allow us to leave our luggage at the property on the day we departed since we had a later ferry. They even have an outdoor shower so we could clean up before our departure. I would not hesitate to stay at Buisson Guesthouse!

We liked the garden, we felt like as if we’re on a small village, very clean rooms and delicious breakfast. The hosts were also welcoming and helpful, also quite talkative. Nice shower outside the rooms so that you can get the sand off of you.

There are quite a lot of roosters around so if someone has a “weak” sleep then he might get easily woken up in the morning. The way into the guesthouse is quite sketchy - through some shady neighbourhood: The hosts were kind, however, as accurate to previous reviews left there - there was once a moment where one of them made a mistake when counting our expenses at their place, therefore, count before yourself to make sure you don’t get overcharged. Also, although it’s of course not their responsibility, the host didn’t allow us to take a little bit of water from their water dispenser, and I know that if I was in such place, I would act more humane. Otherwise, all good.

Excellent breakfast with lots of local fruits. Kind hosts. Bike rentals at their place. Beautiful, lush vegetation. Location close to jetty.

Neighbourhood around the estate is a bit messy.

Great location near the centre and ferry , kindness of the owner and staff , comfort of the room. We have enjoyed so much our stay.

I don't think words can describe how charming the Buisson Guesthouse is. As its name suggests - it's a guesthouse, so if you are expecting resort standards, this isn't for you. As they have only 3 units, you encounter very few people - it's very suitable for those looking for peace and quiet and some privacy. We found the Buisson Guesthouse to be as authentic as it gets. It's located conveniently a walking distance from the ferry and shops in La Passe. It's situated in a residential neighborhood, surrounded by lush tropical trees, a variety of flora. The garden is amazing. WOW! I sat in the dining area and I could spot birds and endemic reptiles like geckos and other lizards. The room was wonderful - clean, quiet, air conditioned, with a large refrigerator, and a comfy mattress. The wifi was the fastest we had throughout our Seychelles trip. Breakfast was a real delight. You can also ask for dinner if you'd like. We asked for bicycles for our stay for an additional fee. We used the bikes to get around the island. I'd say it's necessary (we saw people walking - what took us 10 min. took them 30 or more to reach the same places...). The hosts - Doris and Charles are wonderful people. Very attentive, interesting and warm people. They helped us with questions we had and gave us some practical tips regarding the island which made a difference. They also have toilets and a shower on the premises (outside the rooms) for those who have already checked out and need to refreshen. It was a shame we had to leave. La Digue is an amazing place. I would return to the Seychelles for a longer stay on La Digue and specifically at the Buisson Guesthouse.

It was simply perfect.

Fantastic contact with the owners, they are very helpful. We sailed from Mahe for one night to La Digue and the next day we returned to Mahe and here we could rent a bike, the price was the best comparing to other points in the center of the island, after check-out, when we returned the bikes in the evening before the return trip we could still take a shower which is very much appreciated. everything is very well maintained, in the room as well as outside. The room is not huge, but very clean and there is everything what you need. Outside, the garden looks beautiful, and the breakfast is really great, I liked it very much. I really rate the whole thing very positively.

Great location. Close to the port

Hosts were very friendly, room spacious, was surprised how big the bathroom was...great garden

We have had a wonderful stay at Buisson Guesthouse. The staff were incredibly friendly and hospitable, making us feel right at home. Also at Buisson best breakfast in La Dique were served - homemade and delicious! Furthermore, Buisson offers to rent a bike in a good price, which is needed for transportation on the island. Highly recommended!

Breakfast was nice. Near to the Ferry port.

We have used this accommodation for my birthday. Doris, the host, was amazing. We have appreciated very much her availability to answer any questions we have asked regarding the island, places to go etc. The room offered was sparkling clean. It was nice to eat breakfast on the terrace, surrounded by tropical trees. The bikes rented from the property for 100 SCR/day helped us reach any place we wanted on this beautiful island. We would consider rebooking when going back.

The breakfast and dinner

Great place to stay. Friendly staff.

Very friendly and open-hearted owners. Nice breakfast. Cleaning room everyday, laundry service, bike rentals, 5min walking from ferry, nice garden, everything great.

Staff, breakfast,garden

All the staff were so helpful and nice. The breakfast is amazing (just try to not overeat on all the delicious treats). The location is really good, quiet but within 5 minutes walking distance to the main town and jetty. You get beach towels, umbrella, a/c. The little outdoor kitchen is equipped quite good. On your checkout day you can leave your luggage and use toilets/bathroom when you get back to get it. We just stayed for two nights, would have definitely stayed longer if we could!

Bring mosquito repellent if you wanna sit outside!!!

Good location, walking distance to the port. Excellent Breakfast. Hosts were very welcoming.

We loved the garden and the terrace. The place is really nice and clean and we had the best breakfast and dinner here ( the best octopus curry in Seychelles). And the most important we had a very good sleep as the bed is very comfy

Bicycles were very old and was not a good decision to rent them form here.

Tranquility at its best! Mini heaven!

The hosts were so lovely and warm- the room was comfortable for two families comprising of 2mums, 2 teenagers and a 5 year old! The garden was lovely and breakfast was a lovely experience. This was a treasured find.

It’s a little inland although only 6 mins away from La Passe Jetty.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Buisson Guest House on La Digue, and we can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality from Doris, Charles, and Susanne. Their friendliness made us feel right at home.The rooms were impeccably clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for all of us. Every detail was taken care of, which truly enhanced our stay.One of the highlights was the delicious breakfast and dinner served at the guest house. Each meal was a delightful experience, showcasing local flavors and fresh ingredients. We looked forward to every meal!If you’re looking for a welcoming and charming place to stay on La Digue, we wholeheartedly recommend Buisson Guest House.
