Location
Located on the first line of Anse Forbans beach, the resort is approximately 25 km from Mahe Island Airport and 30 km from Victoria city center. The public sandy beach spans about 1000 meters, with free beach amenities included. The hotel is just 220 meters from Anse Marie-Louise beach. Nearby, guests find limited dining options, with the Les Palms Restaurant situated 264 meters away, offering beach views and a friendly atmosphere. The hotel’s setting provides direct access to the ocean and a quiet environment, although it is somewhat removed from bustling urban areas, so renting a car is advised for exploring other beaches and restaurants on the island.
Tips
- Book early check-in if arriving before 14:00, as standard check-in starts at 14:00 but rest rooms may be available.
- Bring water shoes for walking in the sea, as the sandy beach has some rocky areas beyond waist depth.

Reviews
I really liked that there are no strangers on the beach!
We took accommodation with breakfast and dinner.
The food here is incredibly delicious. Something new every day.
A family of cats lives in the hotel, during meals they always sit under the table.
During my stay I had a birthday. During dinner they brought me a cake and sang a song. It was so pleasant that it brought tears.
The room was beautifully decorated upon check-in.
I chose a room with a jacuzzi on the balcony and a gold bathtub in the bathroom.
The room is huge. Everything is new and clean!
I will definitely return to this hotel! I recommend it to everyone!
I give it 10 points out of 5!
Thank you for making our holiday unforgettable!
The beach is just a stone's throw away)
Nice staff. Clean!
Not crowded.
Cons:
The floors in the rooms are tiled. Because of this, it always feels dirty or wet. And the water is in glass bottles, we were with children - not very safe.
Only an overhead shower, no shower head - not very convenient.
The ventilation doesn't work well and it's very humid because of that. 
But overall, we really liked it.
Breakfast was an odd selection of what looked like steamed wedges, pizza made with filo pastry, and glazed carrots. Each time we gave the restaurant another shot, we were very dissatisfied. The fruit juice was, thankfully, okay. I kept getting accosted by staff to pay an additional £273 to attend the "mandatory" Gala Christmas dinner. I had already explained in great length that we had no intention or desire to attend any such event. I was not told about this whilst booking, and I come on holiday to do what I want to do, not what somebody else has decided for me! My partner suffers from anxiety and would not be happy being made to socialise amongst strangers. When I was initially approached, I was told it was a formal, black tie occasion. Due to the lack of transparency, I had not packed a suit and/or tie. However, in a bid to get us to attend (Pay), the invite I received the day before had been changed to smart casual. Due to the pressure I was getting from staff, each time I passed reception, it became embarrassing and untenable. In the end, my partner and I decided that, on ballance, the best thing we could do was check out some four days early. My partner had contracted impetigo from unclean towels and/or bedding. Having observed the cleaner, clean our toilet and move on to bed-making without washing his hands... also, he'd quite happily wash our coffee cups in our bathroom sinks using nothing else but his dirty hands. It was an awfully bad and expensive experience. There is no refund policy, and an early flight home has put me way out of pocket. Thanks for nothing, DoubleTree. Never again.
