Spacious two room apartment (living room with kitchen, sleeping room, bath + toilet, terrasse), extra breakfast area. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is 2 walking minutes to beach at east side and near two bus stops. Entire east and north beaches are in good reach, also with public transport, but public bus is running on “undisclosed” schedule (u have to ask the staff). You will get proper bus info for leaving the hotel, but bus density reduce between ~10:00 - ~15:00, so I recommend having a car on Praslin isle (did not have, so spent some time on waiting).

Great location to our favorite beach Côte d’Or, 50m walk to the beach. Great budget friendly option. Spacious 2 bedroom for the three of us. Basic kitchen utensils but had sugar and tea. Only instant coffee. Big TV’s in each room. We liked sitting out on the veranda listening to the waves.

Hospitality was great staying here with Nora. In advance of the stay she helped book a rental car. During the stay she offered to cook for dinner and this was very delicious and typical local food. The location is good to access Anse Volbert beach by foot and close to Anse Intendance, too.The equipment in the apartment offers to self cater as well. We enjoyed our stay here (family with kids) very much.

Merveilleux séjour

Excellent sejour a Acquario, l'emplacement est super car à 1 min à pied du debut de la grande plage de cote d'or, take away et supermarché à 8 minutes à pied. Nous avons adoré le logement : spacieux, tres bien équipé, beau mobilier et confortable avec une douche dans chaque chambre et petite terrasse tres agreable. Le personnel fantastique toujours souriant et aux petits soins. Nous avons goûté au dîner proposé par Nora qui etait délicieux, merci encore !!! Rapport qualité prix excellent !!!

Acquario ist eine sehr gute Alternative zu Hotels in Cote d'Or, self catering möglich, Supermärkte, Restaurants sowie zwei Tauchbasen (wir machten jeder 12 sehr schöne Tauchgänge mit Octopus Divers) in Gehweite (hier ca. 100m entlang der Strasse), desgleichen der schöne Strand. Lokales nettes Abendessen nach Vorbestellung. Ms. Nora, die Managerin hilft auch bei diversen Buchungen. Haben die 11 Übernachtungen sehr genossen, würden generell Praslin mit Cote d`Or der Insel La Digue vorziehen.

Very nice room with shared kitchen near the beach

The host was very nice, and we could use the kayaks for free. There is a very good hotel just around the corner, so if you do not feel like cooking in the very nice kitchen of Aquarious, you can go down to the other hotel buffet, it is not cheap but good to try for one night. The only downside was that right out of the accomodation there is a road, and one needs to walk for five minutes along the road to reach the beach, the divers center and the buffet of the other hotel. Therefore, I think I might not want to go with kids there as I would be afraid of them walking in the road.

Personligt och hemtrevligt hotell

Väldigt hemtrevligt och väl skött hotell/guest house. Nora (ägaren) mötte upp oss och välkomnade oss varmt och personligt, vilket var väldigt trevligt. Rummet var super, bra AC, bästa wifi vi haft på hela Seychellerna-resan, fräscht badrum. Inget att klaga på. Gratis parkering inne på gården. Man fick både duschhanddukar och beachtowels. Rekommenderas varmt!
