    We had an amazing time at Villa Face Mer! The place was super clean, well-organized, and felt really welcoming. We stayed on the ground floor in a spacious apartment with two big bedrooms, a comfy living room, and a kitchen that had everything we needed to cook. The best part? A beautiful ocean view right in front of us from the balcony! Arnaud was a fantastic host—friendly, helpful, and always ready with great tips and info. We also loved the little garden next to the villa with turtles, and the terrace view was just stunning. The apartment had all the comforts—AC, Wi-Fi, washing machine, and even provided beach and bath towels, plus shower gel and shampoo. Honestly, everything was perfect, even better than the photos online. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back!

    The villa has an amazing sea view. The host Arnaud is kind and helpful. The appartment has two large bedrooms and in addition there is a large living room with balcony.On arrival we were given large bottle of water and the large bathrooms had shower gel, shampoo, bath and beach towels. Hygiene was perfect. Everything was great! Reality exceeds the photos on the booking site. There are supermarkets, restaurants and take-aways in the area We had a great time in Villa Face Mer.

    The stay which was far too short.

    The host, Mr Arnaud goes far and beyond to make the stay at Villa Face Mer memorable and comfortable. We've had perfect communication via whatsapp and on the phone and all our requests at a very late notice have been met - starting from the car rental arrangement at the ferry terminal, through valuable hints and suggestions regarding the restaurants and trips. We've had the restaurant booked at fabulous Les Lauriers at Cote d'Or, the trip booked to la Curieuse island only without snorkelling as we wished. We can't be more thankful for making our 2 days on Praslin more than perfect. Accomodation is spacious, very well equipped - coffee maker saved us on arrival, comfortable bedrooms each with its individual immaculately clean bathroom. The balcony is well furnished with a beautifull view at the ocean and La Curieuse island. We shall definitely comeback for a bit longer.

    Arnaud was a good Host, very informative about the island and the surroundings. He organized a rental car for us, which went super smooth. The apartment itself is well equipped and has balcony with an amazing sea view. The road that runs right under the balcony is only used during the day, and did not bother us at all.

    Great place to stay to discover the best of Praslin. Close to Anse Lazio and departure point for Curieuse day trips. Car hire is recommended, something the owner can perfectly advise on. Would have liked to stay longer (than 5 nights)!

    More basic amenities could have been provided such as cooking oil, coffee/tea, salt and pepper.

    Beautiful property, right on the beach. One of the best views on the island and for a fraction of the price of the expensive hotels. Nothing on Praslin is reasonably priced so it is still expensive but we were only 2pax, recommend the take-away to eat which is close-by, restaurants are ridiculously expensive, Black Parrots and Flying Foxes in the mango tree outside!

    We stayed as a group of 4 for 4 nights in one of the first floor apartments. The apartment was really lovely and had everything one would need for a self catering stay. The beds were very comfortable and it was possible to park close by. The views over the bay are stunning, especially in the evenings. A hire car is a must to get to the beautiful beaches in the area. Arnaud was so helpful and kind to us, he is an exceptional host. We would love to come back one day!

    We stayed at the Villa for 10 nights. Location is very close to Anse Lazio and shops (cca 10min by car). Apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay (eg cooking equipment, electrical plug transformations; they also change towels and sheets every 2 days). The responsive manager Arnaud (communicates in English&French) adds up to this exceptional stay, he profesionally answered all our questions and gave us plenty of information about Praslin and Seychelles. He also assisted us with car rental.
