We spent the last two nights of our wonderful honeymoon trip around the Seychelles at the Coral Strand Hotel on Mahe island and were really disappointed. Admittedly we had stayed at the two best hotels on Praslin island (and the lovely Anse Soleil Beachcomber on Mahe) so were slightly spoilt. However, we did have realistic expectations (based on the price)... more

It was only for one night - our final night - but it stole our fantastic images of this beautiful country. We booked a family room with a seaview and we were given a tiny room overlooking a carpark (mountainview according to the manager). A small double bed for us and for the children - old, stained campbeds which sank... more

Just arrived home from a 17 day trip to the Seychelles. The most amazing vacation ever! My boyfriend and I stayed 5 nights at Coral Strand in Mahé. The hotel is perfectly located at the Beau Vallon beach, which is very good for swimming and sunbathing. There are also different types of water activities. The hotel and room: The hotel... more

My husband and I and my 80 year old mother have returned from spending two weeks at the Coral Strand in April. We had a great time. We know and love the Coral Strand and have stayed here many times before. It has never been a luxury hotel. So a certain degree of disorganisation was always to be expected! At... more

Room was fine but safe in room not working. There was a cruise ship in town for two days which caused a lot of trouble for guests as this hotel has very few beach lounges and these were taken down the beach for cruise guests - some even paid the hotel staff to ensure they had a chair and we... more

It's a horrible place. It's very cheap but I would prefer to pay more and have a bit of quality. We asked for a double room but when we arrived our room had only one tiny little bed. We changed, and the 2nd room didn't have a TV, a refrigerator (was broken outside) and the safe was broken. We bought... more

We travelled to the Coral Strand Hotel as part of a 28 strong diving party, intent on exploring the waters off the island of Mahe. With the Underwater Dive centre just metres from the hotel it was an obvious location to head for. The hotel is a typical 70's built unit with the usual block bedrooms, communal dining area and... more

I have to disagree with many of the people who gave 1 star for this hotel. The hotel itself is located on an excellent stretch of Beau Vallon Bay. Hotel staff are also very friendly and helpful. The rooms are very spacious and are in fact split in 2 levels which are connected with a spiral staircase which was amazing.... more
