May 17, 2011 - PRLog -- Les Lauriers Petit Hotel

On the palm-forested, powder sand island of Praslin, this is a comfortable, laid-back guesthouse in lush tropical gardens. Enjoy Creole cuisine, plus fishing, snorkelling and island-hopping excursions. From £52 pp*
Package: from £1,305 pp (two sharing) for seven nights with flights from London, inter-island flights, breakfast, transfers and free upgrade to a villa subject to availability.

Chalets D’Anse Forbans

A long established, family-run property situated on a former coconut plantation on Mahé’s stunning east coast. There are 14 simple but well-equipped chalets offering plenty of space for families with children and a quiet stretch of beach. From £64 pp*

Anse Soleil Beachcomber

Perennially popular for its casual atmosphere, this place is in southern Mahé on a crescent of sandy beach – good for swimming and snorkeling at all tides. There are 14 good-value rooms, all with verandas and sea views. From £76 pp including breakfast*

South Point Chalets

Located in Mahé’s verdant Takamaka Valley, there are six well-appointed chalets, a small swimming pool and a shaded breakfast pavilion just two minutes’ drive from the beach. The manager, Patrick, is happy to help guests plan their days. From £58 pp*

Clefs des Iles

Right on the beach in Mahé’s Beau Vallon beach area, this is a relaxed property with four tastefully decorated two-bedroom duplex flats. Dive and watersports centres are only metres away. Hard to beat for a great-value beach holiday. From £245 for a two-bedroom flat*

Bird Island Lodge

The least expensive private island option: twenty-four simple but comfortable guest chalets surrounded by coconut palms and frangipani. Spend days beachcombing and birdwatching (it’s an ornithologist’s paradise), before enjoying meals in the open-sided restaurant overlooking the lawn towards the sea. From £148 pp with full board.
