Really well functioning guest house. Super practical with the kitchen, fridge, freezer etc. We had a room with a good size balcony overlooking the beach and the sea, and it was wonderful and shady all day. Staff is really nice, although we were a bit overwhelmed when they came in and actually cooked the breakfast we had ordered 😉 It is very easy to rent a car - just ask in the reception. On a few occasions there was no hot water, uncertain why - We went on a boat tour as recommended by the hotel, but we could not go everywhere promised due to the season, and they should have told us that beforehand, as they never go snorkeling at Île St Pierre at this time of year. Hotel should have let us know beforehand! Thus, 4 instead of 5 TripAdvisor stars for withholding that information!

We had a lovely 4 night stay here in April 2023. The staff were all lovely, including the receptionist, the lady who cooked us breakfast and the evening security guard. Our sea view apartment had a beautiful balcony with good quality furniture. Inside, we loved the bedroom area set on a different level to the rest of the apartment - the four poster bed was lovely. The kitchen is really well equipped and it was great to get some water and welcome drinks on arrival. The only thing that could do with improvement is the shower - we struggled to switch between the handheld and the overhead main shower - but as we were only staying for 4 days we didn’t feel the need to rectify this while we were there. The rest of the bathroom is a lovely design, with double sinks. We didn’t have breakfast included every day, but paid for it at €15pp one day. A lovely lady came in and presented us with fruit, pastries and cooked us eggs. It was nice and relaxed to have breakfast cooked right in our room! The location in Côte D’Or was great with a small supermarket nearby and fabulous beach views. It’s around a 10 minute walk to a slightly livelier area with good restaurants/bars such as Cafe Des Arts, St Pierre and Les Lauriers. There’s also a good takeaway a few minutes walk away called Ma’s Takeaway where we could grab some food and bring it back to eat on the balcony. They also provide branded beach towels which were unexpected and a great perk. Umbrellas are provided too in case of a downpour! Another good extra facility were the outdoor mini showers so you could shower off your feet of sand before going back to the apartment. There is also a free safe. Housekeeping was excellent and they would make an array of towel animals to decorate the bedroom with each day! We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying here 100%! A really nice small and friendly guesthouse in Praslin.
