  Beautiful area, with tons of exotic plants. Plant lovers paradise! The shop with it has gorgeous vanilla pods at a fair price. The smell is incredible. Be aware it's a jungle though so potential for plenty of mosquitoes. Cons, the road to it is riddled with potholes and there are no signs with any of the plants. It's a French island so don't expect any English with the guides or staff.

  Lovely garden/forest with a wide range of species. Enjoy a walk in the green and savoir the scents and colours of the indigenous plants of Réunion. The reception’s attitude towards guests is a bit snobby if you‘re not proficient in the French language (reason for 4 stars). The shop is well stocked with partially in-house (or rather in-front-of-the-house) produced items such als spices and vanilla. A nice improvement would be a coffee machine or any sort of outlet other than factory made juices out of a fridge in the shop to savour on their beautiful front porch in the middle of the jungle.
