Prima verblijf met gezin aan prachtige strand
Pros:

Ligging prachtig aan het strand. Kayak en sup mogelijkheden die gratis zijn was erg prettig. Hygiene heel goed en vriendelijk personeel die mee dacht aan onder andere halal maaltijden voor ons.

Cons:

We vonden de drankjes beetje aan de hoge kant. Ondanks dat we van te voren hadden aangegeven dat wij wij uitsluitend halal of vegetarisch/vis eten en dit opgepakt zou worden. moesten we dit een aantal keer weer tijdens verblijf aangeven. Het was jammer omelet/ pannenkoek op zelfde plaat gebakken worden en niet apart. Niet heel erg maar prettig als dit gewoon tijdens boeking was geregistreerd

Seychelles at its best
Pros:

Beautifully renovated maintaining its original charm. Spectacular views over the bay and best location on this beach. Convenient facilities and easygoing holiday vibes.

Cons:

The food is tending to be less local and more generic hotel food however this is probably what most guests prefer. I miss the citronelle tea that was common at breakfast. However they did make an exception for me I think it was better when everyone could enjoy this Seychellean treat .

Really lovely place. Rooms
Pros:

The coconut grove village I called it. Stunning property, nested in Nature.
Friendly staff trying to make your stay unique

The animations and the creole night and dance :) highlight of the stay!

A supermarket is not far 5 min walking- practical.

Cons:

The Duc de Praslin hotel next to Paradise Sun, plays loud music several nights a week- till 11pm. So not every night but if you want a quiet night every night, mention it to be placed on the far left side.

Luxurious place with nice staff!
Pros:

The location is great! The staff was really nice and helpful. On our last day we had the trip back at 17h, while the check-out is at 10. They offered us a room to shower and prepare an hour before we left. It was really nice!

Traumhafter Urlaub mit vielen Natur Erlebnissen, ich komme wieder.
Pros:

Das gepflegte Hotel liegt am Ende eines kilometerlangen Sandstrandes, sehr gute Lage. Weitläufiger, weißer Sandstrand, mit ausreichend Liegen, abwechslungsreiches Abendessen, täglich ein umfangreiches Themenbuffet, frisch zubereitet, lecker auch für Vegies, Zimmer: zwei Einzelbetten, sehr gute Matratzen, geräumiges Badezimmer, sehr gute Klimaanlage, großer Schrankraum, Terrasse mit Blick auf den sehr gepflegten Garten und Strand. Verlässliches, äußerst freundliches Personal, . Plan mit Freizeitangeboten z.B., Beach Volleyball, Gratisexkursionen, Yoga, Brettspiele; neben dem Hotel Tauchschule

Cons:

Angebote der Exkursionen können von Anbietern im Hotel gebucht werden, diese sind teuer, im Village günstiger zu buchen. Ebenso Taxi - handeln lohnt sich.

Would come back!
Pros:

Location is fantastic and very convenient for excursions

Cons:

Really we likes everything - only thing, sometimes the waiters were very unattentive, like forgetting to bring water after we ordered it, asking for our room number 2 or 3 times and then still forgetting...reception staff was very professional tough

Pros:

L'emplacement +++
La plage en face
Le personnel
La nourriture
Tt était parfait
Je pense que pour loger à praslin il faut se loger à anse volbert
À chaque fois que le temps est mauvais il faisait beau seulement à anse volbert ..
Et la plage est top devant l'hôtel avec la vue paradisiaque

Cons:

Les fourmis dans la chambre
