After a night at Praslin’s most exclusive hotel – the Constance Lémuria Resort – we moved to the Indian Ocean Lodge 10 mins car-ride away. Expecting the move from five-star to three-star to be a disappointment, we had a pleasant surprise: we loved it. From the moment we checked in to our delicious lunch of fresh stir-fried Calamari and grey... More

We stayed here as a family with our 2 young boys over the Easter weekend. Despite an initial mixup re our booking by the junior staff, ending in us paying quite a bit extra on the first night, the next day the lovely Lady Manager or Deputy Manager (unfortunately we've forgotten her name) who hadn't been present for the mixups,...

6 nights at Indian ocean lodge in Feb 2012. We chose 6 nights in praslin so we could do some other island excursions. Our stay at Indian Ocean was excellent. This is a good quality, homey-feeling hotel. Room had comfy bed, fridge, excellent deck (we were on upper floor), great seaside view, and double shower. Nothing fancy about this hotel... More

We Island hopped during our stay and on final stop decided to upgrade from budget hotels. Found it very acceptable although the buffet food (apart from the Creole Buffet) can get tiring and suggest you mix with a trip to local places. Good fun and experience that way. Hotel right on marvelous beach but watch the sand flies and protect.... More

Indian Ocean Lodge is a lovely place to stay. it is like paradise. We stayed there for our 25th Wedding Anniversary Holiday and loved it. You have to do your research before you go anywhere and read up on where you are going to avoid any shocks. If the thought of going to the seaside and horror of horrors you... More

Our first visit to the Seychelles.This hotel was very good, the staff friendly and the food generally good especially if you like fish and rice ! For the Easter weekend they put on food specials including a suckling pig which was superb. The staff wore traditional costumes and looked very good. We found it much cheaper to get drinks from...

Amazing islands, Seychelles is the destination, just a paradise. Good hotel and location. Poor service and unfriendly staff. My partner and I spent 10 days in Seychelles. No words to describe the beauty of the islands and the beaches. Nice hotel location, a few foosteps from the beach. As u get in the reception, u can see the pool and... More

Arriving at this hotel gives a ‘wow’ moment as you look through the plush reception to the pool, beach and sea in front of you. You walk out onto a deck which hosts tables, chairs, recliners and the restaurant and surrounded by palms. The beach is just footsteps away. The room is in a block of four with a outdoor... More

We visited Christmas 2010 into Jan 2011. Richard and ALL were very polite, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The Chefs worked their socks off, and gave us all the WOW factor with the variety of local produce. Our room was lovely with great views over the gardens and Indian Ocean. The pool and pool bar, even though small,... More

Stayed 4 night in this hotel. Do not expect white sandy beaches and turqoise waters during the SE monsoon (we were warned though, so not an issue for us). Beach covered in seaweed (as reported by many). Further north, there were strecthes that we almost 100% covered, so the stretch in front of IOL was not that bad. I believe... More
