Seashell Beach Villa

This is an excellent place: a true beachfront property, and on a wonderfully long beach, I might add. It is also only a short drive—plus a refreshing walk—from Anse Georgette and Anse Lazio, two truly beautiful, if not legendary, beaches. Cindy manages the properties with great care and attention to detail. I can only highly recommend Seashell Beach Villas.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The property was spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, and offered all the comforts of home. What really made our visit stand out, was the incredible hospitality; the host went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and provided fantastic local recommendations. The location was also perfect—peaceful yet incredibly convenient for exploring. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable getaway.

The host is very friendly and does her utmost best to make you comfortable. We got fresh fruits from her garden. The apartment is spacious and everything is ok. The bed is good, the AC works, quiet location. Most restaurants are only a 5 minute drive away. The host provides a washing service for free, which was very welcome. Our main issue is the furnishing of the apartment. It simply isnt a cozy place where you want to hang out to read a book or relax. Indoor is dark due to limiting windows, the lights are all fully white and too dim. Cooking is hard and lights are missing in the bathroom but above all: if is nothing cozy. It is so simple to decorate the place with nice lights and furniture as they do in the many restaurants to get that island vibe. Now it was just a place to sleep, nothing more. And there are much cheaper options that give you the same. Apartment: all the basics are there, but given the price we have found better in the past. No coffee machine, no ventilation for cooking, only airconditioning in the bedroom and not in the living or kitchen. Limited towels and only a single sheet on the bed, no adequate bedding. Housekeeping: kind but they turn the AC off when you are gone. Given that there only is 1 AC it takes a long time until the apartment cooled down again when coming home. Windows are left open after cleaning, allowing some local wildlife to enter your room. Location: the view was great, but with the current winds there is no way to relax on the beach or terrace. The sea is not suitable for swimming in this time of the year at least. Now we drove every day to the other side of the island to enjoy the beaches there instead of our own private beach.

We had an amazing stay at Seashell Beach Villa! The owner, Cindy, was incredibly helpful and supportive she even helped us organize our trip in Praslin. She’s truly the best! The villa itself is super cute, spotless, and made us feel right at home. The view is stunning, with direct beach access and a lovely balcony to relax on. Everything was beyond our expectations! On the other note, location was also very convenient, close to beach bar, reggae bar and lots of restaurants & takeaways, supermarket and other local shops. The only downside is that we only stayed for two nights but we’ll definitely be coming back to stay longer and enjoy this beautiful place even more.
