PALM Hotel & Spa, a 5-star nugget in a breathtaking natural setting.

Reunion Island is renowned for its intense natural beauty. Lava cliffs, tropical rainforests and black sand beaches: it’s in the wild south of the island that nature expresses itself at its most grandiose. On the heights of a cliff overlooking the sublime bay of Grande Anse, lies a veritable nugget: the PALM Hotel & Spa.

The 2nd establishment owned by Michel and Nanou JAM, this hotel blends into its natural surroundings to offer guests an exceptional experience in a “Jungle Chic” setting.

Luxury, calm and pleasure under the palm trees

When you enter the PALM Hotel & Spa, a sense of calm washes over you. After walking down an avenue of palm trees and fountains, you enter a lobby that is both majestic and warm. A flagstone path, surrounded by exotic pools and lanterns, leads to the outdoor bar with its breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean. Numerous rest areas, 2 swimming pools and a whirlpool invite you to relax and enjoy. PALM Hotel & Spa has become a favorite meeting place for locals in search of a relaxing interlude.

Luxurious setting in lush natural surroundings.

Lava stone, ponds, precious woods… this discreetly luxurious design establishment extends over 3 hectares and blends into the lush natural surroundings.

It was this splendid setting that prompted the Jam couple to design what would become one of the 3 5-star establishments on Réunion Island…

After their1st establishment (the remarkable Iloha), Michel and Nanou Jam decided to design a 3-star hotel in the Sauvage South. The grandiose setting of Grand Anse eventually prompted them to rethink the project as a 4-star. 5 years later, thanks to a constant quest for perfection, the PALM Hotel & Spa was awarded its 5th star.

 

“At the time, opening a top-of-the-range hotel in a rural commune far from the main tourist areas was a daring gamble. We were rewarded by joining the exclusive club of 5-star hotels”

Michel JAM

 

Superior rooms, deluxe rooms and classic and family suites, scattered around the gardens, all offer tropical charm and refined luxury.

Nestled on a cliffside with their own Jacuzzi, the 3 lodges open onto a unique panorama: the ideal retreat for lovers in search of romance.

Nature magnified and respected.

In the midst of this green setting, between sugar cane fields, ocean and forest, PALM has opted for responsible tourism. The installation of solar panels, the purchase of electric buggies, bioclimatic architecture and recycling channels… it’s thanks to these many efforts that the PALM Hôtel & Spa was awarded the “European Ecolabel – tourist accommodation services” in 2014.

 

An exceptional spa.

Hedonism continues at the AKEA spa, a brand created by Nanou Jam and shared by 2 establishments (Iloha and Palm).

“Cultivating the art of living through body care and well-being is not a fad. It corresponds to a real need to find oneself, to take care of oneself to stay healthy, to face this tumultuous life that goes so fast and that sometimes makes us forget ourselves. Taking the time to disconnect through these treatments allows us to feel better in body and mind.”

In an environment with Asian influences and a bewitching fragrance, you’ll discover 435m2 of well-being. A space turned towards the outdoors and framed by splendid nature, you’ll enjoy a hammam, an open-air whirlpool, massage rooms and an esthetics room…

Discreet luxury and omnipresent nature…

A journey for the taste buds

A visit to the PALM Hôtel & Spa would not be complete without a detour to the MAKASSAR, Chef Pothin’s gourmet restaurant.
