A lovely 4* boutique hotel on the east coast of Praslin at the quieter end of the beautiful Cote d'Or bay. Beside large granite boulders, the idyllic setting provides stunning views across sparkling waters towards St Pierre Island. In lovingly tended lawned tropical gardens, Paradise Sun offers cosy Seychellois-style bungalows, ideal for couples or families seeking a relaxed atmosphere complimented by a selection of beach and water sports.
The hotel's main restaurant and bar, with its traditional sand floor, has a delightful beachside setting where waves gently lap its side. A highlight of your stay at Paradise Sun, however, is the 2km long white sand beach while the Beach Clubhouse offers activities including stand-up paddle boards and kayaks, excursions to nearby islands for as well as a weekly kids' entertainment programme. As the beach is gently shelving, it allows great snorkelling for beginners, while there's also a dive centre next door to the hotel.
Seychellois-style bungalows, scattered through the gardens, offer some 80 rooms; some bungalows are closer to the beach with sea views. All have a French Creole design with much use of local wood, high ceilings, wooden shutters and cool ceramic tiles. Although rooms are quite small, double sliding doors open onto a private deck providing extra space; all include king or queen beds. Deluxe rooms are also able to accommodate two children under 12 years, who stay free of charge. The hotel is great as part of a Seychelles island-hopping holiday.
