Beachfront hotels on Praslin
Beachfront hotels on Praslin line Côte d'Or and Anse Volbert on the north coast, and include Raffles Seychelles at Anse Takamaka and Constance Lemuria, with its access to Anse Georgette. Check the swimming season as well as the view.
Where they are
- Côte d'Or and Anse Volbert: the tourism board calls this Praslin's main beach resort and describes it as the beach with the most booked resorts along its shore. Its family beach guide notes numerous beachfront hotels, with shops and places to eat nearby, and kayaks and glass-bottom boats; Whitetip Divers works from the beach at Côte d'Or. At the Côte d'Or end, Anse Gouvernement lies between Côte d'Or Lodge and Hotel L'Archipel.
- Anse Kerlan and Anse Georgette: the tourism board says Constance Lemuria gives direct access to Anse Georgette, and that Anse Kerlan and Petite Anse Kerlan are part of the resort.
- Anse Takamaka: Raffles Seychelles has villas in beachfront gardens here as well as on the hillside.
What beachfront means
Some hotels open straight onto the sand; others sit across a road or above the beach on a slope. Ask how far your room is from the water and whether a road lies in between.
Choosing by season
UK government travel advice (checked 16 September 2026) says west coasts are generally unsafe for swimming during the north-west monsoon, around December to March, and east coasts during the south-east winds, around May to September. The Seychelles Meteorological Authority adds that from June to September, beaches facing south and south-east collect weed. At Anse Kerlan, the tourism board notes strong currents at certain times of year and says the hotel advises guests on swimming.
