Le Duc de Praslin
Le Duc de Praslin Hotel sits a block away from a stunning white sand beach, surrounded by lush, tropical, orchid-filled gardens on idyllic Praslin Island. The entire property underwent a complete refurbishment in 2008 to produce updated, modern and stylish accommodation and public areas.
There are five categories of room at Le Duc de Praslin: six deluxe rooms, 14 superior, four junior suites, two honeymoon suites and a special family apartment. All rooms have been tastefully redecorated with stylish décor and offer modern facilities including well-appointed private bathrooms, air-conditioning, LCD TV, ceiling fans, tea and coffee facilities and WiFi (charges may apply).
The family-run hotel offers great value for money and an excellent spread of recreational facilities, including a spa with massage treatment rooms, water sports, and an outdoor pool, Jacuzzi and sun lounge deck.
Le Duc de Praslin Hotel is a very suitable choice for couples and families, offering a relaxed and hassle-free stay every time. A wide variety of offsite excursions can be arranged from the hotel including visits to Vallee de Mai and other nearby islands and both cars and bicycles can be hired giving guests freedom to explore the island independently.
