Diana Dea Lodge
Diana Dea Lodge is a five-star hotel in the highlands of Reunion, situated at about 650 meters above sea level. The building combines stone, wood, leather, and glass, offering rooms with views of the Indian Ocean and coast, including standard rooms, suites, and glamping tents.
The lodge was established as a refuge in the highlands where visitors could connect with Reunion's volcanic landscape. The project built on the region's long history where nature and human habitation have coexisted for centuries.
The lodge's name references the goddess Diana and the concept of Dea, symbolizing femininity and nature. Visitors notice this connection to the natural world immediately when walking the grounds, where deer roam freely and the surroundings shape how the building fits into its landscape.
The lodge is about 4 kilometers from main roads in Saint-Benoit, requiring a scenic drive through sugarcane fields and small villages. Book well in advance, especially during peak seasons, and allow time for the journey to the property.
The lodge sits within a UNESCO World Heritage protected area with two hiking trails nearby where visitors can explore waterfalls, rivers, and lava tunnels. This rare location combines luxury accommodation with direct access to protected nature and geological wonders.
