Seaweed:

The trade winds between May and October will wash up some seaweed on the beach of this accommodation. This may make the water a little cloudy but also provides yet more evidence that the underwater world around the Seychelles is in top health.

Boat trips to the neighbouring islands can be arranged by the hotel upon request.
The sea-angling trip bookable on-site is highly recommended.
It is also possible to organise scuba diving and snorkelling trips to places such as the mini island of St. Pierre.
Thanks to its great location on Praslin, most of the island's beaches are easily-accessible by rental car.
Villas de Mer puts importance on sustainability: With solar panels installed on the roof of the building, solar energy is used for the supply of electricity of the accommodation.

Description:

The Villas de Mer lie next to Praslin's stunning Grand Anse, on the south-west coast of the island, ensuring a fantastic view for guests of the beach, the ocean, and Cousin and Cousine island. The recently-refurbished accommodation offers a restaurant with dining area beside the sea, large pool, and 10 suites, spread across 3 buildings. The estate's main building has also been refurbished, but still maintains its traditional plantation style.

Each suite contains a spacious, air-conditioned double bedroom. Additionally, there is a comfortable seating area, a private veranda with ground-level exit, and a large bathroom with shower and hair dryer. Also present in every suite are ceiling fans (in addition to the air-conditioning), tea and coffee-making facilities, a mini bar, a safe, and modern furnishings. All of the rooms were refurbished in 2011 using solid wood furniture from Bali, so are in great condition.

Near the resort's main building, guests can find a beach restaurant that offers exquisite Creole and international cuisine. It's things like this that earn this small hotel our special recommendation; the attention to detail and level of care afforded by the owner and the staff is excellent.
