Smart Choice
I was a bit worried after reading some of the reviews, but the reality was a pleasant surprise. The hotel is from the 1970s, I didn't expect that everything is new. It is not, but it seems to be continuously repaired and updated. Our ocean-view room was spacious, recently painted with a well-working A/C, new furniture, a fridge, and a new model of LG TV. The beds were comfortable. Room service as well as all the staff was excellent. The location can't be beaten - we have traveled around the island and couldn't find a better one. The breakfast and dinner were very good. The hotel (similar to some other real estate in Seychelles) is owned by Russians and the clientele is partly Russian, too.

This large beach resort is in a great location on a beautiful beach. There hotel has three restaurants including a terrific buffet breakfast and there are several beautiful restaurants on the beach only a few minutes walk away. The rooms and lobby are run down and need a renovation badly. Is still a good value because is the location.
