“OK, but overpriced.”
The hotel is next to a private beach and is very peaceful. The staff are mostly friendly and helpful. Anse Georgette is a nice walk away (about 45 minutes). There are small shops in the vicinity. The garden is full of birds and is a pleasure to we relaxin in. The kitchen and the utensils in the bungalow were OK, although the fridge was extremely loud.

It is a decent property, nothing extraordinary as it shows in pictures. We got an upgrade due to our special request.

“Lovely Oasis of calm”
Beautiful location with its own private beach. No need to go to other beaches but everyone does? Room was very nice with everything you could need. Only soap provided so you need to bring everything else. Very comfortable bed. Staff were very friendly and we went half board which was a good call as there is not much around it and you need a car/taxi to go anywhere else. Dinners had a distinctly Indian flavour which we loved. Very relaxing

“The hotel is so over rated. I won’t recommend it. It was not worth the cost.”
It is very close to a small beach. The waiters are very kind and welcoming.

“Very basic bungalows”
The Islander Hotel is located right next to the golf course of the Lemuria Hotel on the northwestern side of Praslin Island and is less a hotel then a self-catering bungalow location. We had a family bungalow for two persons which had two bedrooms, a kitchenette and a bathroom. The bungalow has been painted lately and is plain and functional. After a few hickups the aircon in one of the bedrooms has been replaced immediately and then worked normally. All rooms additionally have large fans. The staff is very friendly and all problems have been addressed immediately. There are a few chairs and tables right at the beach and we also went swimming in the sea although the weather was quite windy and waves came rolling in. However it is not forbidden to swim there, like some other reviews mentioned. You just have to swim at your own risk. But you'll find these warning signs at almost every beach on Praslin. There is a supermarket in walking distance to stock up on beer and food.
