Brilliant small guest house, amazing sea views
Lovely large apartment with great facilities. The balconies from the sea view rooms are amazing with very nice furniture. The kitchen is well equipped, although we mainly just walked 10 mins (out of the gate and left) to several lovely restaurants. The four poster bed is perfect and so pretty. Loved it! Would 100% recommend.

Great location, clean, comfortable
A short 3 night stay, hotel is right in front of a beautiful beach and walking distance to several ATMs, mini-markets and restaurants. Location was quite good, hotel arranges trips. There is only breakfast served to your room so lunch / dinner is either eat out or cook yourself as it is a self catering type apartment. Seychelles is quite expensive and I would say this hotel is quite reasonably priced, clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend this hotel, would suit couples, families or friends.

Well - located accommodation near all restaurants and shops and next to the beach. The staff was very friendly and helpful ( helping with renting of car, taxi, recommendations). During the Covid 19 situation our breakfast was prepared directly in our room by staff with the facemask which was really comfortable and really tasty. Even the road in front of the guesthouse was not noisy.

We spend excellent days during our honeymoon journey here. The room was very clean and romantic. We found everything we need. The fantastic sandy beach was in front of the house. Our host - Emilia took care of us, organized everything we wished as in fairytale...

Nice accommodation on Praslin with good location. Even though L'Hirondelle is self-catering, it felt more like a hotel in many ways. Breakfast (which is optional) was prepared in our own kitchen and served on our balcony - a new, but really convenient experience. The welcome drinks and amenities in the kitchen and bathroom were all things that we did not expect and have pleasantly surprised us. The staff were friendly and helpful (including organizing excursions). The room and building were nicely maintained.

Nice place next to a beautiful beach. Great view from balcony! Very comfortable for family of four. Would be good to have some space at the beach that could be used by guests. All together very pleasant.
