Welcome to Reunion

People think of the Indian Ocean islands as small corners of Paradise, with wonderful sandy beaches and beautiful lagoons. Reunion is a different kind of Paradise, which will delight both outdoor enthusiasts as well as those who enjoy discovering somewhere different. There is an active volcano and vast craters, rugged cliffs, gushing waterfalls and tropical forests. It is almost impossible to resist the natural splendours of Reunion – a true affair of the heart.

Reunion lies close to Mauritius and is something of an enigma, with villages tucked away on the slopes of steep craters, an almost lunar landscape near the “Furnace”, the active volcano, and waterfalls tumbling from the high plateaus. The island has towering inland mountains and it is a great place for extreme sports such as river rafting and paragliding, as well as for walking, trekking or spending a night in a mountain refuge.

Of course, guests can also just relax under the shade of a palm tree, sipping the local rum, or strolling around charming local villages. As well as the sheer beauty of the island, visitors can also experience the local culture that is quite different, influenced by the European, African and Asian origins of the people.
