GARDEN VILLAS AT LE DOMAINE: A FRESH, BRAND NEW LOOK!

 Newsletter from Le Domaine Edition N°10 – November 2012 GARDEN VILLAS AT LE DOMAINE: A FRESH, BRAND NEW LOOK!
In line with Le Domaine’s ongoing commitment to growth initiatives and the provision of making its clients experience the beauty and exoticism of La Digue, we inform you that with the successful refurbishment of the first new Garden Villa, our team will continue to embark on the remodeling of the remaining 4 chalets. Having listened to our guests’ feedback, we have designed the first newly furnished room incorporating modern, comfortable and island‐inspired designs. The 60 sqm Garden Villa offers the convenience of a peaceful and spacious accommodation set in an enchanting surrounding, amidst the exotic and lush garden of Le Domaine. Authenticity, simplicity and serenity merge in perfect harmony, conveying the feeling of a true island experience. Each villa features: lounge with TV (satellite), private terrace, spacious bedroom with ensuite bathroom. The villa can accommodate up to 3 guests. Connecting villas will be available upon request. After refurbishment, expected to end up by the last quarter of 2013, each duplex consists in 2 separate rooms, so that Le Domaine will offer 20 garden villas instead of 10. The kitchenette of each villa will also be removed. Following the refurbishment and from actual season onwards (from 01.11.12) kindly note that garden villa will no longer be available on European Plan basis (room only), but on B&B and half board only. Occasional slight auditory disturbances may affect the surroundings of the villa being refurbished. However, please note that as the refurbishment takes place inside each villa, no major noise pollution or visual disturbances is expected in the other areas of the property. We inform you that until end of 2013 (date when renovation is supposed to come to an end) and as the refurbishment is ongoing progressively in each chalet, the hotel will not be in the position to confirm a renovated or non renovated Garden Villa if a reservation is confirmed in the meantime. Thanking you for your understanding, we look forward to offering you a new Domaine experience.

The co‐branding with Germaine de Capuccini allows a reinforcement of the nature concept at Le Domaine, as most of the Germaine de Capuccini products consist of natural elements such as cinnamon, ginger, orange and aloe vera and other natural ingredients for an intense experience for all the senses. The choice of the premium brand Germaine de Capuccini responds to our demand of quality, originality and environmental concerns. The successful combination of natural active ingredients with cutting‐edge technologies has enabled Germaine de Capuccini’s laboratories to bring out some of the most influential skincare products and professional spa therapies the beauty industry has ever seen. A collection of facial, sun care and body massages have been especially selected for Eden rock Spa. Please find below samples available: TIMEXPERT LIFT 75 minutes Outstanding tautening and visible firming results are obtained thanks to the power of Kombucha –the oriental fungus of “long life”– and the sesame extract contained in the vial and in the tautening film‐mask applied. AFTER SUN EXPOSURE 60 minutes Smoothing body wrap. The instantaneous smoothing virtues of Aloe Vera, refreshing mint water, essences of lemon, lavender complement the softness of this re‐hydrating mask. Its formulation rich in almond and olive oil transform it into a silky cream applied by means of a massage. INDIAN OCEAN MASSAGE 60 minutes The subtle perfume of the Oriental Oil based on cardamom, rice and sesame opens the doors of this placid paradise massage.
