The hotel is clean and the rooms very spacious and comfortable. Its located at the southern part of Praslin, not the prettiest part of the island. But if you are on a budget then this is a good option to explore. The staff is friendly and courteous, but you will find a few sullen staff, all in their restaurant. This... More

Location for this hotel is not good if you are coming to Seychelles to enjoy the beach and swim. The beach is dirty, lots of seaweed and smelly. Location is not good considering that nicest beaches (Anse Lazio) are in the other side of the Island. The hotel itself is nice, and rooms are comfortable with classy beach decor (full... More

Such a sweet little hotel in a very peaceful setting. The rooms are extremly comfortable with lovely balconies looking out towards the sea although some of the view is obscured by trees. The only problem I had with the rooms were the rather basic bathrooms which are really in need of an upgrade but saying that they are prefectly clean... More

The beach is right there for you to laze or swim. The rooms are wonderful. For once the pictures on the website were as the place was ! Loads of storage... More

indian ocean lodge is a solid choice when staying on praslin island, especially if you like long walks on endless white sand beaches. the hotel was clean and friendly and had everything we wished for. anyway, if you like snorcheling you better find a place at the northern end of the island (snorcheling there was just a dream!!!!)

Lovely little hotel in a great position. Small and cosy with a family run atmosphere. Comfortable rooms, bit small but cosy. They are decorated in a beach comber style, like drift wood and shells and little interesting knickknacks you would find on the beach. The beach is great here and although the hotel has a restaurant where nothing is too... More

After a night at Praslin’s most exclusive hotel – the Constance Lémuria Resort – we moved to the Indian Ocean Lodge 10 mins car-ride away. Expecting the move from five-star to three-star to be a disappointment, we had a pleasant surprise: we loved it. From the moment we checked in to our delicious lunch of fresh stir-fried Calamari and grey... More

We stayed here as a family with our 2 young boys over the Easter weekend. Despite an initial mixup re our booking by the junior staff, ending in us paying quite a bit extra on the first night, the next day the lovely Lady Manager or Deputy Manager (unfortunately we've forgotten her name) who hadn't been present for the mixups,...

6 nights at Indian ocean lodge in Feb 2012. We chose 6 nights in praslin so we could do some other island excursions. Our stay at Indian Ocean was excellent. This is a good quality, homey-feeling hotel. Room had comfy bed, fridge, excellent deck (we were on upper floor), great seaside view, and double shower. Nothing fancy about this hotel... More

We Island hopped during our stay and on final stop decided to upgrade from budget hotels. Found it very acceptable although the buffet food (apart from the Creole Buffet) can get tiring and suggest you mix with a trip to local places. Good fun and experience that way. Hotel right on marvelous beach but watch the sand flies and protect.... More
