Fodor's Expert Review Coco de Mer and Black Parrot Suites

Praslin, Inner Islands, Seychelles

Located on more than 200 acres of forest and 1 kilometer of beachfront, this lovely jungle-themed hotel is the only property on Anse Bois de Rose, and every room has sea views. Numerous extras like hammocks, a gym, library, spa, free shuttle to Anse Lazio, and a nature trail make it a great choice for families. The "Fisherman's Wharf"—a gorgeous pavilion over the water—is the perfect place for a sundowner or a wedding ceremony. Perched on a granite outcrop and separated from the main hotel by a walkway, the Black Parrot junior suites provide a honeymoon section (no kids under 14 on this side). In addition to access to the main hotel's numerous facilities, guests will have a secluded atmosphere, magnificent views of the sea, and perks like iPod docks and espresso machines. All rooms throughout the property are spacious and modern, with satellite TV and other conveniences.

PROS

  • sea views from all rooms
  • Black Parrot suites wonderfully romantic
  • free Wi-Fi in public areas

CONS

  • located on the western side of Praslin, where beach is subject to seaweed May–October
