Berjaya Praslin Resort

The beach

The food was very,very bad and seriously overpriced

The beach was great when you can find a spot where there are no stray dogs. The food is pretty good considering the resort. The staff are friendly and helpful but you can tell they are tired of people complaing to them all the time. They were very good at attended to things that broke which was on a daily basis because everything is so old. *take your own hairdryer, the hotel one is from the 60’s and is useless.

This hotel is infested with stray dogs. There’s stray dogs in the breakfast area, the dinner restaurant, by the rooms, at the pool area and worst of all on the beach. Some of them smell so bad we were forced to move from where we were lying on the beach. It’s hard to believe the resort has done nothing about this problem. The hotel rooms are what you would expect at boarding school or a cheap back packers. They were due for a major upgrade 20 years ago that didn’t happen. I did not feel like I was relaxed or on vacation. The bathrooms in the hotel rooms are shocking! Actually worse than a backpackers. It’s hard to believe these are bathrooms in a resort. The bathrooms are what you would expect in public housing. This is a classic example of a hotel company that is not willing to reinvest its income back into maintaining and upgrading its hotel. Other hotels we visited on Praslin island were much nicer. After our stay here we went to a 4 star hotel which was incredible and the same rate / cost. I was fooled by the professional pictures on booking.com in real life the hotel is not nearly as nice. For 3 days during our stay there was construction on the pool area which was very noisy and made it unusable. There was no mention or warning of this from the hotel. After that they started construction on other parts of the hotel which was very noisy. There’s also a building site next door which is very noisy. A local person from the Seychelles told me that this hotel group has a very bad reputation in the Seychelles as a lot of people check out early and move to other accommodation. If you book here expect a 2 Star resort and you won’t be disappointed.

Location. F& B staff was helpful.

Very sad front office staff.... Very rude and cold.
