Bliss Hotel Praslin

Our family of five, including three teenage children, recently stayed at the Bliss Hotel on Praslin, Seychelles, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. This boutique hotel is beautifully situated along the stunning Grand Anse beach, making it a perfect spot for swimming in the calm waters—ideal for families with young children. The hotel features two immaculate swimming pools with pool bars, and the staff are friendly and helpful. However, our experience with the room was less than ideal. We booked a Family Suite with two rooms, located in the garden. The hotel's website describes these rooms as "Elegant & Agreeable Suite Garden Chalet," promising tranquility and a peaceful Creole ambiance. Unfortunately, our suite was less than 10 meters from the road, resulting in constant noise from cars and music throughout the morning and evening. This was far from the restful experience we had hoped for. Additionally, the bathroom in our suite was in dire need of renovation. The water would leak all over the place, even reaching the bedroom, and the door was rotten. These issues significantly detracted from our otherwise positive experience. In summary, while the hotel itself is wonderful, the Family Suite we stayed in did not live up to the advertised tranquility. A warning about the suite's proximity to the road and its need for renovation would have been appreciated. Other than that, we had a great time at Bliss Hotel and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and friendly service.
