    Unforgettable view over the beach and islands from the chalet. Staff is very friendly and gives recommendations/makes reservations for places to visit and one day trips.

    Wonderful chalet with a fantastic view of the ocean

    There's no air conditioning in the chalet (which makes sense), so it took us a day or two to acclimate to the high temperatures of the Seychelles even at night. There is a fan above the bed that helped cool us down though!

    The view of the Anse Volbert bay from the lodge is just breathtaking. The staff were very kind the entire time and provided helpful advice about activities on the island, gave us recommendations for restaurants, takeaways and shops. Les messaged us ahead of our arrival on WhatsApp to arrange everything, and was always available to answer any questions or help arrange activities for us. The chalet looks wonderful as well - it makes for a much more exciting stay than a regular hotel room. Nothing beats sitting on the chalet balcony and looking down at the ocean while eating breakfast or having a drink.

    The first night down at the hotel on the beach there was some kind of festival (or disco) and the music was so loud that we couldn't sleep until 2am. The whole village didn't sleep. We had to call the police twice. This is a periodic event, how often it happens we don't know. The hotel manager was very apologetic, but to be fair there was nothing she could do about it.

    Incredible view, hard to imagine better. Nice staff. Large room, large kitchen, everything you need, spacious bathroom. Lots of places to sit, tables. Wonderful veranda. Excellent location - next to one of the best beaches on the island. The cutest geckos run into the room, flying foxes fly in front of the room. We even saw local endemic black parrots.

    Breakfast was 10 euros only continental - fruit etc...should have had a better spread. Did not go for the breakfast due to lack of options.

    Lovely view from the cottages of the Cote d'or beach. Spacious and airy rooms. You are right within nature so expect a few harmless bugs and insects in the night. Les is a lovely host. She took such good care of us with recommendations and helping us with a lift up the hill since we dint have a car.

    Not so much didnt like, but you have to be renting a car if you stay here, unless youre super fit and like walking up a mountain everytime you go to the beach haha. The cleaning staff could also have been a tiny bit more friendly.

    The views are amazing here and the room/small apartment has everything you need. Les is also super helpful and very available to help if you’ve got any questions. If you love cats and dogs then this is definitely the place for you.

    you should cope with insects in the room (which by the way is normal for the location) and a low cleaning level. For us it was not a problem to have stains on bed sheets and towels (properly washed but still with stains) spider's web in the corners, dirt kitchen utensils, old and already used kitchen spons, ... you shall take it into account when coming here. for us it was perfectly fine because the location and views were dramatic and didn't ruin at all our staying and experience.

    the owner and the view are superbs. she offered free of charge an upgrade to a better room. if you wish to fill your eyes of wonderful views this is the right place for you.

    Mosquito net, air conditioning would be practical.

    I travelled by bus on the island, so it was not easy (but it was OK with 50+) to go up and down to the Mango Lodge on foot, but the panorama was worth it, that was amazing. The apartment was big, and the bed was comfortable. Côte d'Or/Anse Volbert beach was very nice and well-swimmable in this period. Leo's takeaway is highly suggested there. Traveling by bus was quite easy, just use the application, get a bus travel card, and go to the bus stop at least 10 min earlier. It was quite smooth to get to Anse Lazio and Anse Georgette on Sunday by bus, too.

    Lesley is the best host! She was super helpful and communicative. She really took care of us as if we were family, offering jetty service, renting a car and providing recommendations for dinner. The views from the lodge are amazing. The rooms are super spacious and have all amenities needed! There is parking right at the front door for small cars.

    It could get hot without an a/c in the morning.

    Quite an experience! The wooden bungalow offers a tremendous view on to Côte d'Or. I loved to sleep with the doors of the balcony open and look at the ocean and the stary sky from my bed. A unique experience. A car is recommended, I didn't have one, going down the road was no problem, coming up I got a taxi for 70 Scr (less than 5 €).

    The beauty of the view from the balcony is out of this world! Lesley, is an amazing and super professional owner. She organized everything that we asked for in a very fast and effective way! We wish we had spent more days there, but we can always come back! The location is very convenient, plenty of take away, restaurants, supermarkets and the fabulous beach of Laszio just a 15 minutes drive by car away!

    We stayed 4 days in Mango Lodge and what can I say? I booked this accommodation mostly because of the view, and oh boy, it did not disappoint! It has the most beautiful views of the Cote D'Or Beach below. Absolutely stunning! very cute wooden chalet with everything you need. Equipped kitchen. Spacious bathroom and big bedroom with huge balcony. Yes the property is high up on a hill, so definitely don't recommend for older people with walking difficulties without a car. We did not have a rental car and walked up and down everyday. Yes it is a bit of a workout but nothing too extreme. Took us about 10mins down to the beach, maybe 15mins up the hill. It's 1000% worth it! Lesley, the owner, is super lovely and helpful. We arranged with her in advance to come pick us up at the ferry terminal and she also drove us back on the day of departure. If I ever go back to Praslin, I will def. stay here again!

    We got the best room in the lodge! The view was fabulous. We got a panoramic view of the azure sea and green foresty mountain from every window. The room was spacious with a kitchen, living room, dining area, separate bedrooms and bathroom. Best of all, the bedroom was open air with no air conditioning - We enjoyed the fresh air and balmy Praslin weather throughout!

    Even before we arrived, our host, Leslie, was super nice and helpful, providing us with the car service at the jetty. Once we were at the Lodge we were welcomed snd our bags were csrried to our lodge, we had a quick convo in which she explained literally everything we needed to know in order to enjoy our stay on the island. The view is jaw dropping, right up on the hill, we suggest you get a car. Breakfast was served in a timely manner every morning and the room was cleaned every day and we were given fresh towels. In conclusion, Leslie is an excellent host, always hands on, transparrent and sincere! We loved it there and we love Leslie. We will definitely return and already recomended to our friends and family. Much love from 🇷🇴!

    We had a great stay at Mango Lodge. Les is an incredible nice host, who makes you feel like home. Very well run place. Everything is neat and clean. Les organized a perfect trip to Curieuse. She gave us good recommendations on things to do, places to eat on Pralin. The view from the chalet was amazing, we could not get enough of it! Far better than the view from Raffles 😉 Thank you Les, hope we will be coming back one day !

    My husband and I stayed in the Chalet. It was big and comfortable. The view from the Chalet was amazing. I would appreciate better mattress and pillows at the bed and an AC is more than important in the room due to the humidity and the heat specifically during the day. At night was much more better. Also, eggs at the breakfast would be a good idea!
