I was upgraded to a new room which was stunning. Their was renovation going whilst I was there but there was not too much noise and it is beautiful what they haves done.
Lorraine Elizabeth, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Value but Not Luxurious

Coral Strand is one of the only hotels that truly is on the beach. The hotel in general needs updating badly but the amenities served their purpose fine. We asked for well-blended piña coladas, but the staff did not understand how tourists prefer their drinks. Mahek restaurant is the best for lamb curry. Find other food elsewhere.
Eileen, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely location, easy walk along the beach and to local restaurants. Staff were very helpful and friendly, allowed us to access to business lounge when we arrived early and allowed late checkout and use of facilities while we waited for our departing flight. Breakfast buffet had a large variety of great food. Overall the perfect end to our Seychelles holiday.

Mohammed, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property is lovely. However at check in the hotel thought we had reserved 2 rooms, not 1. They were not happy to have kept a room empty which we did not need. I do not know whether the error was by Expedia or the hotel.

6/10 Good

According to me it is a 3🌟🌟🌟. The landscape is very beautiful and the hôtel is located front of the sea. However, It is a Classic hôtel, not luxury ways and everthing is very expensive. Is is better to choice a luxury Hôtel with the full services. The staff is amazing
