Reviews
It is also 3 minutes walk by beach to the small town so a car is only required if you plan on touring Praslin.
Cote d'Or Footprints and Praslin was a nice way to finish our trip in the Seychelles.
Annia also let us have late check-out because there was not another check in for the day. We would recommend this place to anyone wishing to come to Praslin.
The beach is just a few steps away – stunning white sand and crystal-clear water of the Indian Ocean. Nearby you can buy fresh fish directly from local fishermen, and there are shops and restaurants within walking distance.
Daily cleaning made our stay even more comfortable. Our front-row villa offered breathtaking ocean views – a true paradise.
We can’t fault anything; everything exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Cote d'Or Footprints to anyone looking for peace, comfort, and the beauty of Seychelles. 🌴✨
We appreciated the early check-in and late check-out option. We appreciated the location and the proximity of the villa to the beach. We appreciated safety on the premises and equipped kitchen. WiFi was really good too.
However, the room wasn’t cleaned well, the surfaces were dusty. Some kitchen supplies were not cleaned. Kitchen supplies were old and it was hard to cook using them. There was no AC in the kitchen area and the windows were old, it was really hard to open/close them. One of the housekeeping ladies was rather rude, I can’t even find words for why I had to endure such attitude. The towels were incredibly old and hardly usable. We were given a singular soap bar and one set of toiletries for the family of three for four nights which seems inconsiderate - for a high price range, the luxurious chalet could’ve offered more basic hygiene items for guests.
Maybe we shouldn’t have expected some coffee and tea given the self-catering villa, but we were always provided some pods and more than two teabags in other luxurious apartments in years our travelling experience. Seems rather ridiculous to purchase the big tea pack and hunt for coffee pods (those were not easily findable in supermarkets around) when we were only staying for a couple of nights anyways.
We really wanted to enjoy our stay but unfortunately it didn’t live up to expectations and I can’t recommend it to anyone.
