Pros:

Ett fantastiskt hotell med underbart läge. Rummet var underbart med fantastisk utsikt. De städade två gånger om dagen!
Maten - frukost, lunch och middag - helt fantastiskt. Varje middag (fyra rätter) hade ett tema med väldigt bra variation Vällagat! Stora portioner till lunch. Bra viner.
Baren var också ett trevligt ställe att sitta vid på kvällen.
Fint poolområde men lite för få parasoll för solstolarna. Stranden är en av de vackraste vi sett.

Pros:

Un des meilleurs hôtels de Mahé. Nous sommes restés 6 jours à Carana Beach Hotel et nous sommes enchantés avec mon épouse. Nous allons en garder un très bon souvenir et nous y reviendrons certainement. Les petit-déjeuners et dîners sont incroyables, les menus changent tous les jours, et une soirée à thème est organisée 1 soir sur 2. Le personnel est souriant, chaleureux, respectueux et à l’écoute tout le temps. Excursion, transport, photo, toutes les demandes sont traitées instantanément. Nous recommandons ce bel établissement. Les prix sont relativement chers dans l’hôtel, mais disons que ça fait parti du jeu..

Wonderful place and wonderful staff.
Pros:

Wonderful place and wonderful staff. The hotel is well kept and seems still new. The room was large and the patio and well were lovely being both private and with great views.
The staff were lovely especially Cindy and Lucianna who made the restaurant perfect and spoilt our 6 year old. Only negative was a few small mosaic tiles missing around the pool.

Beautiful hotel with amazing beach
Pros:

On the north Mahe. Very nice beach typical to Seychelle. We took the chalet with sea view -highly recommend. You should note that for dinner if you choose not to eat in the hotel you need to take a taxi.
We enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic !!!
Pros:

An absolutely beautiful location. Each chalet villa has a fantastic view with spectacular sunrise & sunsets.
We were nicely welcome by staff and taken care of during our entire stay always with our comfort , enjoyment and satisfaction as their primary concern.
The pool area was very comfortable and easy access to a spectacular blue water beach . The food was also very tasty , though it’s nice go into Victoria occasionally for variety .
I highly recommend this boutique hotel .
Can be pricey with food, but totally worth it for this very special location. My compliments to the hotel staff at food and beverage and Mr Marco on their sucsessful efforts .

Alt annet enn et eksklusivt hotel. Greit men veldig overpriset. Mat tilbudet er veldig begrenset.

Pros:

Beautiful property and beach. The staff is nice but don't expect amazing customer service. You can lay by the pool all day and not one person will ask you if you want any food or drinks. Read it in other reviews and it was on point. But the facility is beautiful and the staff is nice. If you don't mind getting up to order food and drinks you'll be just fine.

Amazing !
Pros:

We really enjoyed our holiday here . The chalet view of the ocean is amazing and the private pool in the chalet has good privacy . The staff is very friendly and helpful . The only thing I found irksome was the internet that kept disconnecting and needed a new password every time from the reception . Its about 30 mins from the main town . I would definitely come back here

Pros:

Красивый пляж (пожалуй, один из самых красивых на острове), комфортные номера. Очень плохо с едой: качество продуктов, маленький выбор, низкий уровень поваров, неадекватно дорого. Сервис so-so. На обед и ужин лучше уезжать из отеля.

Pros:

Staff is extremely nice, and catered to all our requests. There were a couple of unexpected problems that required special attention by the staff.
They took ownership of the problems (even if the issue was out of their hands), and compensated above and beyond.
We felt like a 7* service, all the way.
We enjoyed the intimate personal beach they offer, which is very easy to access.
Would definitely return to this place.

Pros:

good location but very poor service. simple amenities and requests were not executed and problems with the room ignored. staff is mostly unattended. not acceptable for a so-called luxury hotel with high room rates.
