Le Duc De Praslin

Le Duc de Praslin sits on the white sand of Cote d'Or beach on Praslin island, where the water is shallow and calm. The hotel has ocean-view rooms close to the shore and garden suites set among tropical plants and fishponds. Private villas with kitchens and terraces are available for families or groups.

The main restaurant, Le Dauphin, serves buffet breakfast and dinner surrounded by water features and greenery. A beachfront café offers seafood with views of the bay. The property has a swimming pool and organizes occasional beach parties with live music.

Cote d'Or beach stretches for two kilometers past the hotel, with sunbeds under palm trees. The Vallée de Mai nature reserve, home to the coco de mer palm, is four kilometers inland. The hotel uses solar panels and other green technologies to reduce its environmental impact.

Rooms have balconies or terraces; some villas include private pools. The beach is a short walk from all accommodations.
