very enjoyable.
Pros:

exceptional beach and swim - especially at low tide when rolling waves do not bounce you off the stratified coral beds lying in wait .decent food . comfortable bedding.

Cons:

shower drain overflowed a bit. Six drinking germans ( 3 couples) in the smaller cove, with really loud music spoilt our calm on the 28th . An exit time of ...10 am is really cutting it short !

Pros:

- Hotel magnifique dans son ensemble : collé à une superbe plage, plusieurs transats et carrément des matelas (très demandés donc à "reserver" tôt le matin en mettant sa serviette) pour profiter confortablement de la piscine et de la plage toute la journée, espace bar très joli avec possibilité de faire du billard
- Chambre superbe bien éclairée avec une très belle vue, literie impeccable
- Restaurant excellent (petit déjeuner et dîner le soir) avec énormément de choix
- Personnel incroyable, comblant tous vos souhaits : avons profité d'un check-in très anticipé le matin et d'une possibilité de prendre une douche après le check-out sans supplément
Nous reviendrons !

Nie polecam
Pros:

Personel jest bardzo przyjemny, widok z pokoju odrobinę rekompensuje minusy.

Cons:

Hotel nie dość, że lata świetności ma już za sobą i wymaga remontu to położony w dość słabej lokalizacji zarówno pod kątem plaży, ilości roślinności (raczej unikałabym tej części wyspy jeśli chce się zobaczyć piękno Mahe) a także pod kątem braku jakichkolwiek miejsc, w których można coś zjeść, a trzeba mieć świadomość, że jedzenie to najgorszy punkt hotelu, śniadania są wręcz okropne, stare pieczywo, ciastka chyba tygodniowe, pani w czepku, która wydziela po plasterku sera/wędliny, zupełne nieporozumienie, nigdy nigdzie nie spotkałam się czym takim żeby gość nie mógł sobie samodzielnie nałożyć na talerz plastra sera. Kolacje bardzo przeciętne. Raczej fastfoodowe. Ogólnie opinie są mocno na wyrost, nie polecam i osobiście z pewnością nie wrócę.

Loved it!!! Will be back next year
Pros:

Everything, a real gem!!

Cons:

Nothing I could be critical about, maintaining a coastal hotel is always a challenge. I see however that they are trying their best to keep up with harsh conditions of the ocean

Pros:

One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. A perfect choice if you’re not looking for activities, but simply want to enjoy the beach, great food, and a peaceful atmosphere.

• Good breakfast buffet — plenty of fruit, fresh baked goods, some cheeses, and eggs cooked to order.
• A different dinner menu every day, so we were able to try something new each evening. It included four courses: starter, soup, main course, and dessert.
• Friendly and helpful staff — they even helped me organize a birthday celebration.
• The hotel is slightly remote, with no shops or cafés nearby. However, this makes the beach quiet, uncrowded, and very cozy. It’s a calm and relaxing place overall.
• For the beach, aqua shoes are recommended. To the left (closer to the rocks) it’s great for snorkeling; to the right the entry is gentler and safer if you just want to swim or jump in the waves.

Cons:

Minor note: You can sometimes hear conversations from the pathway outside the room. However, it’s not an issue since the hotel is small and there are no crowds passing by — most of the time it’s very quiet.
