Boutique place. Very clean and comfortable. Across the road from a beautiful beach. Cleaned the room every day. You can get take away from a lot of places near by and eat in the AC. Really enjoy our stay.

Kan rekommendera

LÀget Àr bra. NÀra havet och ett litet samhÀlle med mataffÀren o fiskmarknad. LÀgenheten Àr ocksÄ bra och mysig med balkong mot havet. Vackra morgonen med himmel o havet innan trafiken med bussar och bilar börjar eftersom det kan vara störande. Mycket vÀnlig och hjÀlpsam personal. Maggi i receptionen Àr lyssnade.

Magnifique rĂ©sidence Ă  10 m d’une des plus belle plage de l’üle. PossibilitĂ© de louer une voiture, excursions et petit dĂ©jeuner. Proche du centre ville avec de bons restaurants. Je recommande.

JĂ€ttebra hotell vid stranden

JÀttebra litet hotell precis vid stranden. Rent och snyggt. LÀgenheterna har stora balkonger mot stranden. Köket Àr utrustat med allt som behövs. AffÀr finns en kort promenad bort. StÀdning sker varje dag. Vi kommer gÀrna tillbaka. Det enda att anmÀrka pÄ Àr nog att om man Àr lÄng sÄ kan nog sÀngen upplevas som kort.

Delightful guest house fit our needs perfectly. Large family 2 parents, 4 kids. we got two rooms. Walking distance to corner grocery, restaurants, dive shop, and most importantly, Gold Coast beaches of Praslin! Just the right balance of space, nice patio, simple kitchen.

Tolle moderne Unterkunft. Sehr nettes Personal. Bei Fragen ist stets jemand da und hilft. Das Geschirr hĂ€tte vielleicht etwas sauberer sein können, aber wir haben es einfach nochmal abgewaschen und gut war. Herausragend war auch der Zimmerservice. Wir wĂŒrden definitiv wieder kommen.

Nous avons eu un souci avec le toaster qui a Ă©tĂ© remplacĂ© le jour-mĂȘme par un neuf. Nous avons particuliĂšrement apprĂ©ciĂ© la proximitĂ© de la plage. Les commerces et restaurants et take away sont tout prĂšs.

Nice department, noise from road, sandflies

Clean and nice department with beautiful view. Helpfull and friendly staff. Unfortunately a lot of noise from the road. Beach full of sandflies.

4/10 Fair

Trevlig personal, trÄkigt lÀge.

Mycket trevlig och hjÀlpsam personal. Rummet var visserligen rent förutom vissa skrymslen t.ex i badrummet, men tyvÀrr ganska fult och otrivsamt. LÀget pÄ Anse Volbert trodde vi skulle vara optimalt vid den lÄnga stranden med restauranger och butiker i nÀrheten, men Anse Volbert Àr inte en strand man trivs pÄ. Den Àr extremt lÄnggrund och kÀnns lite smutsig. Om vi skulle Äka igen hade vi valt nÄgot annat, gÀrna nÀrmare Anse Lazio eller Anse Georgette.

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.

Super charmante Unterkunft. Ich wurde mit einem Willkommensdrink begrĂŒsst und durfte schon etwas frĂŒher einchecken. Ein Regenschirm und Strandtuch wird zur VerfĂŒgung gestellt. Das FrĂŒhstĂŒck (gegen Aufpreis) wird liebevoll zubereitet und auf dem Balkon serviert. Die Einrichtung hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Das Zimmer ist sehr grosszĂŒgig und man fĂŒhlt sich sofort wohl. Es wird tĂ€glich blitzblank geputzt, das Bett liebevoll gemacht und die RĂ€ume mit Blumen dekoriert. Bushaltestelle ist direkt vor der HaustĂŒr. Supermarkt 2min zu Fuss entfernt. Dort gibt es auch einen Takeaway mit leckeren Currys. Nach dem Checkout stehen einem noch eine Dusch mit frischen HandtĂŒchern und eine Toilette zur VerfĂŒgung. So kann man nochmals einen entspannten Strandtag geniessen. FĂŒr den Strand muss man nur die Strasse ĂŒberqueren und ist schon da.

Wonderful stay

Right from the start, I felt at home at the L‘Hirondelle. The room was very clean and decorated with style and love to details. We were in a Garden Room with still a good view to the sea which I requested and appreciate a lot. The staff, including owner, cleaning ladies and night security guard were all extremely friendly and helpful. Location is fantastic as well. Right over the street you find shady places on the beach. 5-10 minutes walk to restaurants, take- aways and supermarkets. Try all the exotic fruits from the fruit stands!
