Description
Right beside the powdery white sands of the Cote d'Or lie the 6 exclusive villas of Les Villas d'Or. This location is excellent for walks along the beach, and offers easy-access to a number of different restaurants within walking distance.
Facts:
2× Two Bedroom Villa (up to 4 people)
Description:
The garden houses 6 spacious villas, all of which have verandas facing the sea. Small sandy paths lead through the garden and connect the villas to each other. One of the paths also leads to the entrance area of the estate, with its large reception and sheltered gazebo beside the pool.
Thanks to its beach-side location, the pool probably won't see much use. The beach here is simply too inviting thanks to its beautiful scenery and plentiful shade. The entrance to the water is also extremely shallow, and the sand underfoot is soft and white, making the beach a fantastic year-round prospect for swimming, something that doesn't necessarily ring true for all of the island's beaches.
According to the estate's charming manager, Pierre, the villas were originally designed to be high-class self-catering villas, but as time went by the services were extended to excellent breakfasts and evening meals. The Villas d'Or receive our special recommendation as they rank among the best accommodations available in this price category on Praslin. If you look at the pictures you'll see that they speak for themselves.
Activities and specials:
- Take a walk along the white sandy beach that lies immediately in front of the Villas d'Or, and visit one of the exquisite beach restaurants there, such as the well-known Café Arts.
- Take the boat over to St. Pierre island, which offers one of the best snorkelling spots in the Seychelles.
- Book a boat trip Curieuse Island. The trip will include a beach barbeque and a tour of the tortoise breeding station.
- Free bicycles are available for quick shopping errands only.

The trade winds between December and February will wash up some seaweed on the island of Praslin. This may make the water a little cloudy but also provides yet more evidence that the underwater world around the Seychelles is in top health. Please note that the opposite coast of the island of Praslin does not have this effect.
Reviews (426)
Average: 4.5 out of 5 starsSelf catering houses are clean, very good and nice equipped. Friendly manager (Pierre)! Beautiful garden.
We had booked the Villas d'Or the previous year due to the more remote location of Anse Volbert. A still nice, quiet area, but without special highlights. The hotel manager Pierre offers once a week "in-room-dining" in combination with "pay what you like". Funny, but no culinary highlight. I give three stars with a clear tendency to 4 stars.Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
Super plant to dream, Piere is an original, takes care of the arriving guests, gives tips and hints. Offer Creole food and drop by in person. Takes care of pick-up and return to the restaurants. Highly recommended is a car, although the public bus stops in front of the door (the schedule was a bit opaque). Rooms were very well maintained. The breakfast was sufficient for us (continental).Translation (DE): GoogleTranslate
