Many travellers who have visited Majuli believe that the river island is Assam’s best-kept secret. Cradled on the mighty Brahmaputra, Majuli is paradise for the ardent traveller. While most tourists prefer to stay in Jorhat, the nearest town to Majuli, the river island can be best enjoyed by living there for a few days. La Maison de Anand is one of the best choices for staying here.
The hotel is built in the traditional Mising style of stilt huts made primarily of bamboo. The stilt hut has been built in such a manner that they are permanent structures without losing the local essence of the place. La Maison de Anand is a venture by a local Mising man Danny and two French architects who fell in love with the place. La Maison de Anand literally means the ‘house of happiness’ and truly staying here is nothing but pure, unadulterated happiness.
Basic facilities are all available at La Maison de Anand. Twin beds in the bedrooms, bathroom at the back of the house (Indian-style) and hot water on request are some of the features of the place. Travellers can book motorcycles and bicycles from the hotel to roam about the area.
