The perfect base for beach-hopping, nature-spotting and soaking up the easy-going spirit of the Seychelles.
If your idea of a perfect holiday involves powder-soft sand, swaying palms and nowhere particular to be, Indian Ocean Lodge could be just the ticket. Set on the shores of Grand Anse Beach, this laid-back hideaway captures the easy rhythm of island life, where days drift between the pool, the beach and long lazy lunches overlooking the ocean.
One thing that steals the spotlight year-round is the sunset. Thanks to the hotel's west-coast location, evenings bring a spectacular display of pink, orange and golden hues across the Indian Ocean, best enjoyed from the beach, by the pool or with a drink in hand. When you're ready to explore, Praslin's highlights are within easy reach, from the UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai to the island's famous beaches, including Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette. Back at the hotel, tropical gardens, ocean-view dining and the gentle soundtrack of the waves complete the picture of a wonderfully easy-going Seychelles retreat.
Why we love Indian Ocean Lodge
-
Sunset lovers are in for a treat – the hotel's west-coast location means front-row seats to some of Praslin's most spectacular evening skies
-
Small, friendly and full of local charm, it offers a more authentic side of the Seychelles
-
It’s perfectly placed for exploring Praslin’s highlights, from UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve to postcard perfect beaches such as Anse Lazio
-
Two infinity pools, each serving a separate guest wing, create a more private and exclusive atmosphere than you might expect from a small beachfront hotel.
Rooms
The 32 rooms are tucked amongst tropical gardens and designed in a fresh, contemporary island style. Bright, spacious and comfortably furnished, they're the perfect retreat after a day spent beach-hopping, exploring or simply soaking up the Seychelles sunshine.
Facilities
Expect relaxed dining, fresh island flavours and plenty of ocean views. From leisurely breakfasts to sunset dinners by the beach, meals here celebrate the best of Seychelles hospitality, with local ingredients, Creole influences and freshly caught seafood often taking centre stage.
KokoSol Restaurant & Bar
Just steps from the beach, KokoSol is all about relaxed island dining. Start the day with breakfast by the ocean, stop by for a leisurely lunch between beach sessions or settle in for fresh seafood and Creole-inspired dishes as the sun dips below the horizon.
What's Included
Half Board • Breakfast and dinner at KokoSol Restarant & Bar
Praslin is made for ocean adventures. Snorkel amongst colourful marine life, head out on a diving excursion or hop between nearby islands to discover hidden beaches and untouched coves. Some of the Seychelles' most famous stretches of sand, including Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette, are also within easy reach.
Sustainability is a natural part of life at Indian Ocean Lodge. Solar power helps reduce energy consumption, ingredients are sourced locally wherever possible, and food waste is donated to a local farmer. Native planting supports the surrounding environment, while reusable glass bottles, bamboo straws and locally made products help minimise waste and support the local community.
With spacious rooms, ground-floor connecting room options and a sofa bed in every room, Indian Ocean Lodge is well suited to families. The relaxed atmosphere and beachfront setting make it easy to enjoy quality time together, while babysitting services are available for an additional charge should parents fancy a little time to themselves.
