Grand'Anse Praslin hotellia

Plussat: The place is a paradise, finished at high quality. Huge beach in front of villas, plenty of privacy / space. Main beach and Anse Georgette are very nice. Spacious and plenty of activities all around. Staff is very friendly and even though menu for vegan was almost nothing, special meals were created for us what made our half-board option worth it in the end.

Miinukset: Water is paid at the restaurant during the dinner with half-board option. Staff lacks professionalism a little, forgetting the orders and seemed not to pass messages between each other quite often.

Plussat: The whole resort is exceptional. Service and staff is the best, food delicious, fresh ingredients, chefs are great. Managers in the resort are very professional and welcoming. Everything was just perfect.

Miinukset: Nothing. Everything was great!

Plussat: Great site. The beaches are awesome. I love how they nested the property into nature. I like the free chilled bottles of water on the beach.

Miinukset: For a property of this stay, we felt that the quality of service was way below expectations. You go on holidays to relax. You go to such a place to be services. 70% of our interactions with the team were good. 30% were not meeting the standards. While you want everything to be easy and seamless on holidays, we found it cumbersome to interact with the team. At times the staff was discourteous, rude or would show some kind of disdain. We have been many times before at Anantara and never once did we experience this. We will not go back to a Constance property I think. There are many places to go to in the world, and I will want to find one where we feel welcome. Jeremy

Plussat: Staff were extra polite and helpfull. Location is amazing, views from a golf court are breathtaking. Good food in the restaurants.

Miinukset: Not enough place on the sundeck by the pool, most of them blocked by the guests since the morning.

Plussat: The place is simply amazing. - The staff is great, nice, always available and makes you feel at home - The hotel is built within a natural habitat and beautiful environment - Facilities and experiences are simply great and easy to access to (beach, pool, restaurant, yoga courses etc.)

Miinukset: Really not sure what I can say here. There is not much to improve.

Plussat: Big resort, lovely beaches and pools. Loved the variety of restaurants. Lovely rooms. Carts to get you round the resort were great. Staff really friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: It’s very expensive so getting free water in your room every day is great. However, having to pay for water at the restaurants at dinner is really poor when you’re paying for HB. Surely the same water that is given in the hotel rooms can be given in the restaurants. We got 4 coffee pods in our room for free after that we had to pay per coffee pod which again is ridiculous for the amount of money we paid to stay here. Little things like this make a big difference.

Plussat: We loved this trip, especially this was the last trip before the lockdown. Cannot wait to go back.

Miinukset: Only tiny tiny thing is that when we first arrived, the staff tried to sell us for an upgrade.

Plussat: The panoramic room was amazing and the view from it was stunning.

Miinukset: Their restaurants are over priced, we paid every night around 270 euro to 350 for a normal meal for me where if you booked half board you would pay 70 euro yet we never had that option when we booked through booking.

Plussat: Nicely located, privacy @ villas

Miinukset: Waiter service could be better organized: long waiting times, mistakes with orders

Plussat: Impeccable service ! Hotel workers do there job SO WELL! From helicopter recervation till restaurante service. We felf like we were a part of big family, when everybody cares about you SO MUCH! All our requests were satisfied in a blink of an eye!

Miinukset: Glass bottels with water. Not comfortable.And the hotel is situated on a mountain ... so without buggy you will suffer to get to your villa.

Plussat: Facilities were good and the staffs were polite.

Miinukset: We did not enjoy the food in Raffles. There is no value for money especially the Valentine's Day Dinner at Curieusse Restaurant. Even the daily morning breakfast buffet options was low in variety. It was almost the same every single day. Could have done much better in terms of food.

Plussat: Everything from checking to rooms to dinner to great night sleep and breakfast. Loved the experience.

Miinukset: Perhaps the buggy drivers should be going a bit slower

Plussat: kindness of all staff who work at the hotel food was very good quiet place perfect for relaxing we will come back with pleasure

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Large comfortable rooms, good food and friendly good service staff. Great views of the sea. Lots of lounging chairs. Welcoming feeling with tea/ coffee cookies complimentary every afternoon.

Miinukset: Would have preferred that my room was in a quieter area, as I am sensitive to noise, being at the beginning of the row of rooms, more staff walking, talking in early morning was a little disturbing

Plussat: Kaunista, siistiä, ystävällinen palvelu, hyvä ruoka. Rauhallinen alue ja kiva luontopolku. Kaikki toimi loistavasti. Hotelli tarjoaa myös kuljetuksen kauniille Anse Lazion rannalle.

Plussat: The beach access is fantastic. You can enjoy the sunset from a terras int the water, or on the sand under a palm tree

Miinukset: - the food. It is mediocre at best and very overpriced. Do yourself a favor and eat out - the internet only works 30% of the time and then very slowly

Plussat: Ihana hotelli! kaikki toimi loistavasti ja ruoka oli hyvää. Kaunista, rauhallista ja siistiä. Hotellin tarjoama opastettu luontoretki oli kiva ja hienoa oli myös että hotelli kuljetti Anse Lazion rannalle.

Plussat: The staff were excellent; of particular mention are Vanessa, Deep, Alexander, Neil, Ayjay, Abishek, Ash, Fabienne, Alexandra as well as the rest of the staff who's names we cant remember. The staff were welcoming and excellent with children, they were helpful when we thought we needed to change our schedule. The food was excellent and the hotel itself tasteful and comfortable. The location is quiet and picturesque. The sandy beach is calm but sometimes there is seaweed which didn't bother us. The free paddling board and canoes were nice as well as the chess board. The recommendation for activities and tours was excellent. We would go back for sure.

Miinukset: Could have more evening entertainment; perhaps 3 nights a week of dancing. There could be some kids activities offered even if for paid fees for example cooking lessons. A shuttle could be arranged to drop off at the national park perhaps. These are merely tips and there was nothing really negative!

Plussat: The pier with the pool and lounging nets where a great place to hang out.

Miinukset: Food needs to be improved. It was not very good.

Plussat: Huone oli tilava ja erittäin siisti upealla merinäköalalla. Ranta ja altaat puhtaat, hyvinhoidetut. Rauskuja ja muita kaloja lähellä rantaa snorklaajalle. Aamiaiselle ei kaivattu mitään lisää.

Miinukset: Syrjäinen sijainti, mutta hotellista kuitenkin löytyy kaikki tarpeellinen. Melko kalliit hinnat ravintoloissa.

Plussat: Palvelu oli ystävällistä. Hotellin rannat olivat täynnä levää, ilmeisesti vuodenajasta johtuen (heinäkuu), joten paremmille rannoille piti matkustaa saaren toiselle puolelle. Auton sai kätevästi vuokrattua hotellin kautta ja auto tuotiin hotellille. Suosittelen varamaan huoneen Black Parrot Suites-puolelta, jossa 12 huonetta. Sviittien asukkaille on oma allasalue hienoilla näköaloilla ja huoneet tilavat ja niistä ihana merinäköala. Suosittelen myös hotellin kautta varattavaa maksutonta luontokävelyä, jossa tutustutaan saaren kasveihin ja patikoidaan läheiselle kukkulalle/vuorelle.

Miinukset: Aamiainen olisi voinut olla runsaampi ja ruoka oli muutenkin mautonta.

Plussat: intimate beach, poolside area very comfortable, fantastic pier, breakfast in a sensational selection, excellent coffee... beautiful natural surroundings

Miinukset: we didn't find anything that disturbed us

Plussat: The private beaches, the pools and the rooms. Rooms are the best with an amazing oceanview.

Miinukset: Nothing not to like about this resort. Everything was just beautiful and serene.

Plussat: The Hotel is right in front of one of the most beautiful beaches in Seychelles. Restaurant is amazing and food spectacular. Staff is kind and very professional. My husband and I were so much in need of such a relaxing vacation.

Plussat: We had a comfortable stay and the hotel. The rooms are well proportioned, and it’s very quiet and relaxing (only ten rooms). Breakfast was pretty good. The pool is small but nice. The staff are friendly.

Miinukset: This is not a 5 star hotel. It’s a 3-4 star hotel (perhaps in the past it was better). You can see that things have been a bit worn down over time. For example, the opening hours of reception varied (one night no one was there after 6 pm), there is no turndown service in the room, you are not automatically given a fresh beach towel every day / after use, etc. The beach was a big disappointment - not the clear waters you see in other beaches and seaweed (despite it not being seaweed season).

Plussat: Nice beach

Miinukset: Prices is overrated

Plussat: Very good breakfast (go for the cheese platter

Miinukset: The price was quite high though, over 500 EUR per night

Plussat: It was clean, private and it had a great breakfast. There are only 10 rooms so the privacy feeling is great. L’Occitane toiletries were a nice touch.

Miinukset: Wifi was terrible. I have been to Seychelles 18 times but I did not find such a bad wifi. Sometimes I was not able to send a simple whatsup message or a simple email to be in touch with my colleagues from work. No 8 yrs old Plaine St Andre rum, I would have understood if it was an imported rum but a local rum come on I was expecting more from a higher class hotel. Dinner was really bad, tom yum soup was a joke, it was missing the ginger and lemongrass; thai people would be ashamed of such a soup. Creme brulee was also not great, vanilla flavour was very artificial, nowhere comparable with what I have eaten at Constance Ephelia or Hilton Labriz. During one morning we have explained that we have to take the breakfast in max 30 mins because we were going on a trip, we have asked if eggs can be prepared quickly because we had to go, the eggs have never arrived so we left after eating almost nothing. We made a complain at reception but there was no action taken by the hotel employees.

Plussat: Wonderful small boutique beach hotel with excellent stuff. They are really very nice and helpful Francois, Marie, Rene thank you for memorable stay! Breakfast a la carte is fabulos, great coffee! Top location, just few minutes from airport. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. A very pleasant and unforgettable experience!

Plussat: The location was fantastic. The beach was tranquil in comparison with other areas. It was protected, swimmable, and had a long stretch for walking. The restaurant and food was excellent, absolutely superb. The bed was super comfortable. Best sleep we’ve had in a long while. The pool was lovely and refreshing. The whole property is quite small, boutique, and quiet - which we appreciated. The staff were charming and always helpful. We would recommend staying here.

Miinukset: A few small things need some finessing. The WiFi situation, should you truly need a stable connection, is not reliable, which is strange when other larger properties on the island have WiFi that connects easily and freely without issue. Also, some of the restaurant staff need some training on cutlery and cocktails as it would be expected that they know the menu and the correct service. It’s a small thing, but for such a nice hotel, it’s to be expected. Final point is that the Dubai-based staff who help arrange details in advance should just say don’t worry about booking ahead and do it when you arrive or the day before to ensure a better customer experience from the start. These are all small things but for the quality and cost of the hotel stay, you expect these little details to be ironed out.

Plussat: We could not fault our stay with Dhevatara Beach - the staff were lovely and always helpful, our room was stunning and very clean, the food was delicious... We highly recommend it for a nice quiet stay in Praislin :-)

Plussat: The hotel staff was really helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good, although the options on the menu are not so extensive...but this is understandable considering the small number of rooms. on the up side, you get everything prepared fresh. The pool was nice and so were the sunbeds... Pick-up and drop-off services were offered free of charge and everything was really nice organized. Front desk supported us with renting a car and with a day trip for snorkeling and visiting the neighboring islands. these were really good recommendations and everything went great!

Miinukset: The rooms were not really cleaned properly (eg. i noticed that the cleaning staff did not use a vacuum cleaner) so there was dust around...it did not ruin the experience, but you would expect something else when you look at the hotel rating. AC was dripping onto the floor from time to time. The staff compensated for these small hick-ups...a BIG thumbs up for the team working there.

Plussat: The food is outstandingly good. I have travelled extensively over the past 20 years and have never come across food that tasted so consistently good on each one of the five courses for dinner and breakfast was fabulous too. The staff in the hotel are exceptional they are all so helpful and friendly. Thank You to Francis and Marie and all the staff please forgive me for not remembering all the names.

Miinukset: This is a very difficult question to answer. There is nothing that we did not like.

Plussat: Tasokas, siisti, rauhallinen

Plussat: Spacious room. Hotel is child/baby friendly. Dinner was out of this world. Hats off to the chef!

Miinukset: Room was a bit stuffy. Limited beach access. Remote location. Overpriced.

Plussat: It is a beach property that is cozy and close to everything.

Miinukset: N/a

Plussat: The hotel looks great, clean rooms with daily cleaning, clean pool, beach close position, sun beds at the beach, helpfull staff and reception. Easy driving by local public bus around the island.

Miinukset: Dinner selection is strongly International food oriented, we would prefer more creole and seafood. Very limited selection, the pizza was relatively good, but when I want pizza, i'll go to Italy not to Seychelles.

Plussat: ...GREAT VALUE ...Great location with smal private beach with shaded loungers and hamacs. Very close to beautiful Anse Georgette ...Very spacious bedroom, a bit outdated but with comfortable bed ...Very spacious bathroom ...Greatest staff ...Bikes on site ...Nice breakfast by the sea ...Nice pool

Miinukset: A bit humid in downstairs bedroom

Plussat: Amazing pool, view, seating areas next to the beach. Friendly staff, really good value for money.

Miinukset: Room needs a little bit more charm but overall really worth the price!

Plussat: The location is not bad. Wouldn't call it the best but still was ok.

Miinukset: They didn't have any kind of fresh juices. Also coconut water was not available and they said it needs to be pre ordered for the next day if we want to have. Which in my opinion is very weird considering we were staying in a beach property on an island. These are some very basic things someone would expect from this kind of a vacation. Also there was nothing to eat at around 5:30 pm. We checked in the hotel around 5 pm and then wanted to eat and they didn't have anything until 7 pm. They took our order at 6 pm for a pizza saying they will prepare it but it only came at 7:30 pm.

Plussat: Bedroom was nice, also the bathroom. Swimming pool is beautiful, the beach Is not big. Fantastic sunsets from there!

Miinukset: Too expensive for B&B. The place Is nice and clean but there is nothing else than B&B. Personnel is tough, never a smile or a courtesy. "Guest Relations Responsible" was OK although I felt did not clearly get the idea of the relation between quality and price, the only argue was that this is a top destination. Which indeed is, but others in the world also are and the services more extensive.

Plussat: Pool area was nice enjoyed the swimming. Bathroom and bedroom were large and comfy.

Miinukset: Balcony of our room was very small. No sea front for swimming.

Plussat: The only nice thing about the property was the pool.

Miinukset: The check in time is 12 noon and we reached there by 12 noon. But it took the reception 2 hours to get us a room. And unsurprisingly we were not the only ones waiting for a room to be allocated. There were a few others who waited atleast for a couple of hours. Even after the room was allocated we had to wait another hour (plus multiple calls to the reception) to get our luggage sent to the room. The cleanliness is bad. There were insects crawling on the serving plates. The dishes weren't washed properly. The breakfast was bad with very few hot food options. The reception staff attitude is really bad. The reception staff try to get you to pay a high amount if you book a taxi from them. It is better to arrange your airport/sightseeing transfers from else where.

Plussat: friendliness and cleanliness

Miinukset: everything was good.

Plussat: Pool!!!

Miinukset: Finally we stayed one hour on the reception for the check in. Breakfast served not in time (7.30 not ready yet). Receptionist could inform us automatically how we can reach Anse Lazio - nicest beach on the Praslin, where a reservation through the reception is in advance needed. Fontains in the pool have been repaired by a guy for 3 days in a row - this caused very unpleasant feeling, mess and bad view in the whole pool area. Pool was not super clean.

Plussat: The staff

Miinukset: The location, the food options, the pool, breakfast,basically... nothing.

Plussat: The property is quiet & relatively clean. The staff is quite helpful (as opposed to some of the reviews I read stating otherwise). The room as well as the bathroom are quite spacious. There was a separate shower area and bathtub area in the bathroom. Our room was on the ground floor and right next to the restaurant, reception & swimming pool. The pool was big and clean. The WiFi was also quite decent (I couldnt get my laptop to connect though). The bus stop was very close from the main gate of the hotel. We even got umbrellas from the hotel since it was raining. We didnt really try the restaurant, so cant comment on that front.

Miinukset: The resort was located a little away from most of the hot spots in Praslin. Even general stores were a good 5-10 minute walk away. Also, for those looking for a beach close to the resort, we didnt find any during our stay (although to be fair, we didnt even try to look for one). We reached here on a Sunday and most of the shops were shut (of course this was not the resort's fault). The bathroom had a spider when we just checked into the room & from time to time, we would find caterpillars roaming in our room. But I dont think this is the resort's fault since Praslin seems to be a place where there are a lot of insects in general.

Plussat: near to airport

Miinukset: - we booked the place only due to swimming pool, however the pool was not operational when we reached, this should have been informed to us beforehand. - Staff is very rude and gets zero marks in hospitality - the WiFi was not working properly all the time - our room was on the first floor- there were no lights on the stairs and there was water on it - could have slipped - they said they will charge €50 if you check out even a minute after 10 am ! - we felt it was a waste of money to book this place and spoiled our vacation

Plussat: Relaxing by the pool at night was great. The beach in front of the hotel was not the best but the facilities was great. There is a bus station near by and if renting a car, there is a parking in the hotel. Staff was super nice especially in the restaurant and bar.

Miinukset: Too distant from the Lazio beach.

Plussat: Very big and comfortable room with big one double bed and one more single bed. Very patient and friendly staff. Excellent food, breakfast and dinner with different menu 1 2 3 4 for every day. With possibility to ask for special dishes. Room was cleaned and organized very well every day. Balcony in front of the pool with private pool bed.

Plussat: Nice pool, rather nice breakfast, close to the airport (if you fly here)

Miinukset: Only some small "private" beaches nearby (no problem if you rent a car). No big deal but some noise from the small airport nearby.

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and helpful. Very proactive in helping which is very appreciable.

Miinukset: Breakfast options are limited.

Plussat: It is neer a bus station, neer supermarcet,

Miinukset: We ware charged twice for the room.

Plussat: Very nice and helpful staff, elegant structure with swimming pool, large and comfortable room, hot water and big shower, very good WiFi connection, close to the bus stop

Miinukset: far from all the nice beach, need to take the bus every day; except the little shop outside, there is practically nothing around

Plussat: Breakfast was always ritch and satisfying. Very beautiful island away from the main island mahe

Miinukset: Airport to noisy a bit, but you do not recognize it if you stay longer

Plussat: Comfy, spacious room. Friendly reception, and staff in general.

Miinukset: Very close to the airport runway, you could hear the aicraft very loudly and often from very early to very late at night

Plussat: The pool. The balcons

Miinukset: The was no electricity for 6 hours during the day, food is poor and not delicious, the refused to give us each day 2 bottles of water. No hot water.

Plussat: The room was spacious, staff very friendly, helpful and food was delicious although the choice was limited. Entertainment like live music was very nice at night as there is not much to do around the hotel.

Miinukset: The hotel needs renovation. Tiles and wooden door look old. The hair dryer and shower were hardly working. We get soap from a dispenser in the bathroom. No shampoo or conditioner. We visited Praslin in July and it was very windy at the hotel. Ten minutes drive away, the weather was sunny, warm and we didn’t feel like going back to the hotel. We could hardly use the swimming pool or swim in the sea at the hotel. We did not like the location at all. There is no restaurant nearby the hotel, so we had no choice but to eat at the hotel every night.

Plussat: The rooms are beautiful and spacious, with a huge bed and a built in bench to relax on. The shower is comfortably big with his and hers shower heads

Plussat: Breakfast and location was superb.

Miinukset: They should provide pick up and drop from and to, to airport and jettys and they should provide complimentary breakfast.

Plussat: Excellent position, nice and very good staff, willing to help and advise you for anything you want. Is also located in front of beautiful beach.

Miinukset: Too quiet island and very expensive country. Compare to other tropic countries is too expensive without reason . Because of this the hotel value-for-money is not worth it.

Plussat: Staff were very helpful and friendly

Miinukset: Beach at this resort was very dirty they could of cleaned the seaweed first impressions always good not in this case thou.

Plussat: It was honestly the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The food was terrible (if you want food poisoning go here) the staff did not understand anything. The food menu was terrible and half the stuff on the menu was “not available”. It was really th worst hotel I have ever been in. I wouldn’t even call it a hotel. Terrible, terrible, terrible.

Miinukset: Everything. Everything was terrible. I would never go here again and I would never recommend it to anyone ever.

Plussat: Nothing

Miinukset: Very bad hotel, very tuff people, uncomfortable place, dirty places, dirty pool, internet connection is 300MB only, They are very bad

Plussat: The stay was really excellent. I was there as a tour leader of a group of 19 adults. So we used 10 rooms out of 12. I was a bit worried before our arrival, regarding some bad reviews from other travellers. But because everything was perfect, I have to write revied too. The pool is just after renovation, looks really nice. The rooms are clean. The staff was excellent and really very attentive. Many of us had several dinners in the hotel restaurant and they were very tasty. Even some people not staying in this hotel arrive for meals in this restaurant. The breakfast had several choices - eggs (cooked in different styles), fresh fruit too.

Plussat: NOTHING AT ALL! Worst hotel I’ve stayed at in 28 years!

Miinukset: Dirty rooms, food poisoning, beach was awful, staff were so incredibly rude! Broken air con, bugs everywhere in the room and they charge you for WiFi (what a joke!) BE WARNED!!!

Plussat: Our villa was really spacious and having a large terrace and balcony was great for relaxing in the evening. The staff were so friendly and the owner Paul made us feel really welcome. So nice to have a great beach at the end of the garden for relaxing or watching the sunsets. Best of all, it was such a peaceful place to come home to after a hard day's tourism. Thanks to all the OJR team for such a great stay!

Miinukset: I liked everything

Plussat: Kitchen was very well equipped. Facilities on the beach are also very nice and suitable for families.

Miinukset: We couldn't get in touch with the staff before our arrival. We tried making contact over booking as well as directly via email and didn't get any answer. Although the staff were prepared for our arrival but no one also tried to contact us as well. Charging 10€ for a very slow internet was a rip off. The whole apartment is very big but the AC in only in the bedroom so it gets rather warm in other rooms.

Plussat: The staff was very friendly. The room was spacious and clean.

Miinukset: There are not too many restaurants nearby (at least during the low season), having a car makes it easier to get around.

Plussat: There are some tecnical problems with the app. It is difficult to answer your messages. Could you please send my email adress to Paul at Ocean Jewels so we can have a direct contact! nils.schirren@gmail.com Ican also confirm that I had a very good stay at Ocean Jewels Resort (lovely staff) and that I was refunded the last day because I had to return to France rapidly, due to medical reasons. Nils Schirren

Plussat: It's very good value for the money you pay. The apartment has everything you need and is quite big. Living roam and bedroom were very nice, they could renovate the bathroom little bit. But overall we were very satisfied!

Miinukset: Only disappointment, but it's not fault of the hotel, during our stay (May) the beach was full of seaweed as well as the other beaches on this side of the coast so we had to travel every day to other beaches...

Miinukset: I was recommended by the staff that there is a Whole Foods supermarket nearby, owned by the same owner of the accommodation, where I can get 10% discount as their guest, but the prices here were 2-5 times higher then in any other supermarket on the island. And you figure this out only once you visit any other supermarket.

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful

Miinukset: Bathroom might need a little refresh :-)

Plussat: AMAZING! The villa had absolutely everything needed for us to have a super comfortable and calm week in Praslin. Very well located (Paradisier restaurant is really close to the house and has the best creme brulle in Seychelles) and the staff was perfect. Whole Foods is close to the house and open until 20h30, what helped us on the days we wanted to stay at home. Very clean, extraordinary view. We received the recommendation to do a boat excursion to see the turtles and it was one of the best tours we had during the 13 days of our vacations. Highly recommended!

Plussat: Staff were accommodating. Room was perfect. Facilities were great. Location was ideal. Pool was nice. Breakfast was comprehensive. Dinner was always freshly prepared. Extras were fantastic that the hotel put on for the honeymoon.

Plussat: The location is stunning, good food and drinks, I have been treated like I was part of a family. Highly recommended.

Miinukset: The WiFi is annoyingly slow and often does not work.

Plussat: Very designed and nice and spacious room !

Miinukset: some ants,that come the cleaning times ,with replacement towels .

Plussat: The crow

Miinukset: The spa is not at the same level as the hotel

Plussat: The setting was lovely as were the furniture and bedroom and bathroom. The beach closeby is lovely as well though with limited chairs and no beach side service. Staff was very friendly. Pool side areas were nice.

Miinukset: 3 of 7 of us got upset stomachs from first dinner buffet so the food options became very limited when avoiding salads. The wifi and cable TV were spotty at best and not working often. Had to call for assistance twice and gave up trying to communicate with my workplace though I needed to do so. Jacuzzi could have warmer water (it felt tepid). Upon arrival to new room called front desk about complimentary waters and bath robes we needed that night but they didn’t deliver them until asked again the next day. They skimp on complementary water in a place where tourists should avoid drinking tap water. Need to add a gluten-free cereal and potatoes to breakfast buffet everything else is glutinous.

Plussat: A solid 4 star hotel located very close to the beach. Good a la carte restaurant, good choice of food for breakfast. Very attentive personnel in the hotel.

Miinukset: There was noise from construction site which made SPA visit impossible. No complimentary water throughout the stay comparing to other hotels in Seychelles.

Plussat: Staff very friendly and nice

Plussat: 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.

Miinukset: 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.

Plussat: Location was perfect on the beach

Miinukset: The wifi could not reach our room

Plussat: The manager was really nice. I booked standard room and I asked for twin room as I went for vacation with my dad. It was not available standard room as twin room so they upgraded us to family room what was even better. Location is great !

Plussat: The beach

Miinukset: The food was very,very bad and seriously overpriced

Plussat: Location. F& B staff was helpful.

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

Plussat: The room was very comfortable we upgraded to a deluxe room the staff and service was very good and the Manager (Front Desk) was exceptional and provided assistance that was excellent.

Plussat: Food is very bad

Miinukset: Good property but need more enhancement

Plussat: Staff where amazing, all of them.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: All other

Miinukset: Sandfky on the beach.

Plussat: The staff are exceptionally friendly and very well trained. We booked the half board and the food was amazing. The entire resort is well maintained and in excellent order. The main highlight is that it's literally on a beach, while the beach was not the nicest beach due to seaweed when we stayed, it was still exceptionally nice due to the convenience.

Miinukset: The room we booked, was smaller than we expected and further away from the beach than we expected, in the photos, it looked nicer and closer to the beach. There was a slight damp smell in the room. The resort only has 1 masseuse, which means couples massage is not possible. We were here on our honeymoon and looking forward to getting a couples massage, so that was disappointing.

Plussat: Cleanliness and natural reservation.

Miinukset: The room I booked was see view with clear picture displayed. But on arrival it was blocked with grass.

Plussat: Amazing vibes . Clean rooms.. really good service.

Plussat: Asiakaspalvelu erinomaista. Päiväretkien järjestämiset, autonvuokraukset, polkupyörien vuokraamiset, kaikki hoitui erinomaisesti. Jopa siirtymiseen seuraavaan kohteeseemme, joka oli Mahen saarella, saatiin apuja kuljetukseen lentokentältä seuraavaan hotelliin. Palvelualttius huippuluokkaa.

Miinukset: Ei mitään moitittavaa

Plussat: Overall a great place to relax and a short walk from the village. Couldn’t believe how warm the sea and the pool were! The menu at the Starfish bar is spot on and the room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast had all corners covered.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Very friendly staff, beautiful location and beach. The restaurant onsite offers really good food a la carte.

Miinukset: The buffet breakfast is a bit simple but if you are not expecting too much it is fine.

Plussat: The staff were very kind and friendly.

Miinukset: Value for money.

Plussat: Everything was really perfect, we really loved the themed dinners. The staff was great! Another couple from our country who we met in the hotel had to interrupt their vacation and the hotel staff was extremely helpful and very fair with them.

Miinukset: I can't think of anything that I didn't like

Plussat: Lovely property with super caring staff who made us so welcome every day, even in the midst of the Coronavirus crisis. Great location with wonderful people - this place outshone any of 5 star resorts we stayed at during our time in the Seychelles. Would I stay again - 100%

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Excellent check in experience. Overall hotel feels very cozy, everyone recognizes you after a few days. Personnel of the hotel are helpful and very friendly. A small talk and a sincere smile from them was enough to make every morning perfect. Hotel has very nice beach which turned out to be the best of all we saw in Praslin and La Digue. Really good food at dinners, especially deserts. Amazing coconut and banana smoothies at breakfast. Entertainments were nice with a creole dancing parties, live music, coconut demonstration and cooking, management drink parties, etc. Drinks are paid extra, like it is common in Seychelles, but they have fairly reasonable prices comparing to some other luxury resorts. They currently have one of the restaurants ruined by the storm. So offer free upgrade from Half Board to Full Board as an excuse.

Miinukset: Nothing serious. Some elements of interior could be refreshed. Stuff could be replacing toiletries without reminder, pool could be bigger and deeper (currently rather for babies).

Plussat: I liked the people specially the gesture received from General Manager - Mr. Ross.

Miinukset: I was travelling with my daughter and there are lots of insects and lizards in the rooms. We have paid them for 4 nights but after two days they shifted us to another hotel.

Plussat: Perfect Location, extremely friendly and helpful staff, great food.

Plussat: Rauhallinen paikka ja huippu ranta.

Plussat: It was literally a paradise. I'm usually fussy over cleanliness but this was fantastic. The food was amazing and staff couldn't do more if they tried, always accomodating and such a stunning relaxing place.

Plussat: I don't know which miracle to write first! Because I don't know which one was the best. :) STAFF: It just can't be expressed in words. He is extremely helpful, polite and very very devoted, enthusiastic. I could list everyone without exception, but I don't know everyone's name exactly. For example, Joyce was extremely helpful in our correspondence before the trip. After our arrival in person. We organized a beach wedding on Sunday. Joyce, who organized the whole thing on Sunday, came in just to make it all right. The beach wedding was outsourced by Joyce, which was the most professional. I advise you not to organize your seaside wedding with a wedding organizer !!!! Paradise Sun Hotel does everything for you and for better. Joyce knew the best solution for everything !! John, Ryan, "Darel" the waiters, the receptionists, the whole staff, everyone was very perfect. The rooms are completely clean. They also come twice a day to clean. Fresh water in the room every day. You can bring fresh towels to the beach every day. No macerated towel pickup process !!! The beach here is most beautiful, not only in Praslin as a whole, not only in Seychelles, but in the whole world! That's for sure!!! CATERING: Every day there is a choice of different regions. Creole, Asiai, Seafood, Baked, etc. Activities: Here you will not be bored, but you can also relax in and around the islands. At least you'll realize it's the most beautiful place. The beach restaurant is really under renovation, but NO problem !! I think the pool restaurant is even more comfortable! we did not find anything objectionable. Everything was perfect. You can't desire better care! :)

Miinukset: I liked everything.!!!

Plussat: Great food, nice staff, nice location by the beach. Nice to stay by the beach at the hotel (which I see as important when booking at that price range), but also close to Anse Lazio which is really beautiful. A bonus that the hotel provided a complimentary "sunset cruise"

Plussat: Staff we as extremely helpful and friendly. Food throughout was of exceptional quality and we especially loved the seaside restaurant where you done at tables in the sand. It was a beautiful and very relaxing stay, we can highly recommend the paradise sun!

Miinukset: One should be aware that the beach in front is not ideal fir snorkeling, however Anse St. Lazio is only a short (10m?) drive away and this is one of the world's best beaches incl. good snorkeling! Of course the beach at Paradise sun is facing NE, so unfortunately no sunsets.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Bed and pillows were uncomfortable

Plussat: The hotel is well placed

Miinukset: The rooms on the beech front are in a real need of some work, the food is not that good either

Plussat: Nice large rooms

Miinukset: Ocean/ ocean front not maintained, average buffet at best

Plussat: Iso hyvä huoneisto.Olimme talon alakerrassa ja meillä oli terassi.Siistiä oli ja hyvälaatuiset suihkutuotteet!!I Iltabuffet oli loistava ja ruoka hyvää!!Koko hotellialue oli todella viihtyisä.Palvelu erinomaista. Olisimme viihtyneet pidempäänkin.Voimme suositella hotellia kaikille!!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Buffet food with little variation Need to fix all blinds on jetty restaurant

Plussat: Hotelli sijaitsee kauniissa lahden pohjukassa, josta helppo lähteä melomaan ilmaisilla kajakeilla. Sunnuntaisin niitä ei saa lainaksi. Snorkalaus vähän turhaa, sillä vesi aika sameaa lähellä rantaa. Muuten lainattavat snorklausvälineet erinomaisia. Uima-allasalue aivan ihana ja siellä vähän vieraita. Huone todella hieno!

Miinukset: Lähiympäristössä ei ole mitään ja hotellin järjestämät retket superkalliita. On helpompaa, kun rannasta voi ostaa veneretkiä. Pyörillä ei oikein voinut pyöräillä mihinkään. Anse Laziolle todellakin liian pitkä ja vaikea pyöräillä ja muutenkin pyöräily noilla teillä vaarallista. Ei mitään kauppaa lähistöllä eikä juurikaan mitään tekemistä.

Plussat: Reception employees specially Maggie ... congratulations

Miinukset: Beach and the appron was closed

Plussat: Lovely position with beach frontage. Luxurious room. They perfectly cooked a Tuna I caught for me. Pleasant breakfast.

Miinukset: Pillows were actually a but big/hard. Room service could have done with some improvement eg a used wine glass sat in our room for the entire stay. Not cheap but nothing is in the Seychelles.

Plussat: Great localization. The restaurant and some room balconies are on the beach! I love everything and i want to return. Our room was very big and the toilet giant. Very clean and well decorared. When i open my door i am on the beach! Restaurant is very beautiful and the breakfast good. We lunch and dinner there, and i recommend it. A special word to all the staff that make me feel like “family” and realy change this days of my life. This beach (anse volvert) is beautiful, calm, eith a lot of boats doing trips to other islands. Near you have supermarket, ice creams and restaurants.

Miinukset: Nothing. Everything perfect.

Plussat: Located directly on one of the loveliest beaches of Praslin, it is a cosy Boutique Hotel with extremely helpful and friendly staff. We happened to stay there at the beginning of Corona outbreak in mid-march and despite all of the crazyness they made us feel welcome and comfortable. Lovely place to Stay and to discover the island.

Plussat: All the staff was always ready to help,especially the lady at the reception.

Miinukset: The standard room they gave me on the other side of the road,but they immediately changed it to a superior room.much appreciated.

Plussat: Stayed just 1 night following a cruise & a next day flight. Staff & rooms were great. Above all the location was superb. many thanks.

Plussat: Everything was nice, food, place, staff. Perfect place to stay on Praslin. Beautiful beach Cote d'or. Our A/C broke down in first room but they gave us better room with beautiful ocean access terrace.

Miinukset: Pillows were full of moist, change them.

Plussat: Very old!

Miinukset: Location

Plussat: The location is just perfect: next to the beach! Bed is very comfortable. The food also is delicious.

Miinukset: Food menu same for lunch & dinner

Plussat: We spent our 10th wedding anniversary back in this beautiful wedding hotel and will be back. The rooms are nice and memorable at Ocean View. The service is very attentive and the seafood cuisine is recommended. We were up-graded by the management, for that we have a special heartfelt thanks. The immediate location on the beach, which almost goes into the hotel, is just great. We traveled as a couple. We can only recommend the house.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Thank you, dear personnel, for this dreaming accomodation! Very warm and helpfull staff. They provided the room early in the morning, ahead of the time. Extra large room, in front of the beach and with ocean view. In the middle of the nature. Comfy bed, very clean room, the bathroom is huge and comprises three separated spaces. Diverse breakfast. Close to the bus station, only 2 minutes walking. Note that buses are not running after sunset, around 4 or 5 pm. This hotel represents everything you imagine for a perfect and unique Seychelles experience!

Miinukset: Just wait to return! Praslin is a perfect choise from the Seychelles islands!

Plussat: Extremely friendly staff, gorgeous room, stunning view

Plussat: Wonderful hotel, very attentive staff, good restaurant food (chef clearly has high cuisine ambitions). Thank you very much for the free room upgrade for my parents

Plussat: One of the best holidays I’ve ever had and the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The staff went above and beyond, they knew what I wanted before I knew myself. The accommodation was modern, clean and bright and over looked a beautiful beach, the views were unreal. I would highly recommend this hotel! It was all perfect!

Miinukset: It was all perfect!

Plussat: Very nice hotel, quiet and well-maintained. Good breakfasts. Good choice for those who are looking for isolated and relaxing place.

Miinukset: One day we were "eaten" by some super small flies (or may it was mosquitos?) and the bites were huge and itching like hell. No mosquito nets on the windows or around the bed - this what we were missing a lot.

Plussat: Beautiful location, lovely quiet beach, fabulous views, very private spacious and comfortable room with big balcony above the hotel with glorious views, very helpful friendly staff, consistently excellent food. This is a very discreet, understated but friendly and efficient hotel offering first class service and a very relaxing holiday.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: We could not recommend this hotel highly enough. The hotel itself is beautiful - built on a hill ending on a beautiful beach, it is the most gorgeous gem of a hotel. The rooms are very clean and comfortable and enjoy stunning views of the beach and landscape (photo attached). The restaurant selection is great and the chefs are very accommodating to dietary requirements. The staff are amongst the kindest, loveliest and most helpful people we have ever met, who will bend over backwards to make your stay unforgettable. (Special shoutout to Debbie (manager), Martin (reception) and Edward (restaurant) - we are very grateful to you all and to the rest of your team for all you did for us.) You will not regret staying at this hotel.

Miinukset: The wifi is a bit patchy and at times unreliable.

Plussat: The manager and his staff were exceptional. The hotel is well located and very charming. This is exactly what we want when spending a few days in the Seychelles. Highly recommend!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: A gem of a place, designed with excellent taste, in a very scenic location and benefiting from very well trained staff. The food (breakfast and dinner) was of a very high quality. It exceeded our expectations and we are thankful for the days we spent there. We will be back for sure.

Miinukset: Wifi access was not reliable at all hours.

Plussat: The staff are amazing, notably the Director of Operations, Mr. Suren Venkaya. Always helpful, always kind, always available and ready to make your stay memorable. Kudos!

Miinukset: The Wi-Fi in the resort needs to be improved. The signal was quite weak in some areas of the resort.

Plussat: lovely staff!! good Wifi

Miinukset: either to hot or to cold in the room

Plussat: Close the beach

Miinukset: They didn’t let use the kitchen or they charge for little coffe bags Stuff or over not sure speak very hard!! Like : Do not use extra bed in room If you use we charge you more ., Put your bag down!! (l pay all room not half) It doesn’t sound like wellcome!!!

Plussat: I liked it all. Reasonable price. Comfortable bed. Very good central location and a quiet guesthouse. Very nice staff, delicious breakfast.

Miinukset: Shower. Low water pressure. Was difficult to wash my hair.

Plussat: Very close to the beach as 3 mins walk to Cote Dor and to restaurants and convenience stores. There is also a bus stop right outside of property. Very chill area. The bed is very comfy however the room is quite old - you can tell. WiFi is great and check in was straightforward. Overall was a good experience.

Miinukset: Nothing major - everything in the room seemed run down. The screws from the door fell off, the bathroom door wouldn’t close. They could use some renovation but other than that was happy with my stay.
