We loved the hotel's authentic local atmosphere, spacious rooms, beautiful beach, outstanding food.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! For the second part of our trip, we were looking for something more authentic and local, and this hotel was exactly what we had hoped for. It has a genuine local atmosphere and charm that made us feel truly connected to the destination. Our room was very spacious and offered a lovely view over the hotel's beautiful tropical garden. The property itself is peaceful, full of character, and incredibly relaxing. The evening buffet was excellent, with an exceptional variety of dishes every night. A very special thank you to Robert, the owner. His dedication to the hotel is remarkable, and what impressed us most was how accessible and genuinely caring he was. He regularly checked in to make sure everything was going well and always made himself available if we needed anything. His passion and personal touch make a real difference. We would also like to thank Hilda at the reception, who was incredibly kind, gentle, and welcoming throughout our stay. A special mention as well to Ranjith at the bar, who quickly became our favorite bartender thanks to his great energy, friendliness, and fantastic service. And thank you to Stephanie at Café des Arts for her warm hospitality and kindness. The beach is beautiful, spacious, and wonderfully quiet—perfect for relaxing and enjoying the stunning surroundings. A special mention also goes to Café des Arts, which was definitely one of the highlights of our stay. It's a fantastic spot to enjoy delicious food and amazing cocktails right in front of the beach, with a beautiful setting and atmosphere. Overall, we loved the hotel's local vibe, authenticity, and warm hospitality. It was exactly the experience we were looking for. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking a genuine Seychellois experience in a beautiful beachfront setting.

A perfect stay in Seychelles with breathtaking views, excellent service, and a great base for exploring the island.

We stayed in Villa 180 and had a wonderful experience. Everything was perfect: the view, the staff, the food, and the overall atmosphere. The villa offers stunning views, and the staff were always friendly, helpful, and professional. The food was excellent throughout our stay. Having a car made it easy to explore Praslin Island, and we enjoyed driving around and discovering different beaches and attractions every day.

An Unforgettable Stay — True Hospitality at Its Finest

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel — truly something I have never experienced before. It’s a beautiful family-owned resort where you can feel the incredible attention to detail in absolutely everything. The food was outstanding throughout our stay. A special highlight was the desserts — which are rarely excellent in hotels, but here they were simply fabulous. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making every guest feel welcome. One of the most unforgettable moments was when I went fishing and caught a big mahi-mahi. The chef then personally prepared it for us, and we enjoyed it fresh for lunch — an absolutely unique and wonderful experience. The rooms were fantastic, the pools were beautiful, and what made the stay even more special was the owner himself, who came every evening during dinner to greet guests and have personal conversations. This level of care and hospitality is something very rare. This hotel is truly 10 out of 10. We will definitely be back.

Everything was great during our stay. The room was very bright, spacious, and comfortable, and the staff were very helpful and attentive. The only small improvement could be having a few more waiters in the restaurant during breakfast and dinner, as it sometimes felt a bit busy. Overall, a wonderful experience and we would happily return.

Beautiful location with direct beach access

The hotel’s location is perfect. Right on the beach! The à la carte restaurant is fantastic, with amazing sunbeds directly by the sea. The staff are very friendly, and the rooms are spotless, modern, and beautifully decorated. The resort is very spacious, so guests spread out nicely and it never feels crowded.

Not a 5-star hotel, a huge disappointment. There are COCKROACHES IN THE ROOM

The staff are friendly. The beach is great. The gym is okay. We were offered a 60-minute spa massage and a bottle of sparkling wine. The dinner buffet is good and offers plenty of variety.
