Great Location Fading Glory

31 Mar 2025
Fading glory but occupying a great location makes up for all else . Rooms are small , bathrooms even smaller that need uplift despite booking top category we found bathroom small. Breakfast spread and F& B manager milling around the guests make them comfortable by his recommendations . A very big downside ...Check in is at 2 p.m. check out is at 10 a.m/ in effect meaning while you pay for 24 hours for a room you are given only occupancy for 20 hours in a day !! This is a scam that guests must protest .If they need hours to clean rooms they must hire more staff , which we see quite a few idleing around .Then if you ask extra hours for check out they unashamedly ask you to pay Seychelles Rupees per hour !!!! No other hotel in Seychelles but this asks you to pay tourist tax at check in ..but this hotel . Hotels in Seychlles have colluded to fleece guests by taking per day SR 100 per guest and it is not understandable why it can not be included in hotel tarrif and paid as lesewhere by the hotel themselves . Tourists come and run the economy yet are asked to pay more and more on one or other pretext Not done

The best location with the worst marketing department

31 Mar 2025
We stayed at the hotel for 5 nights, and I must say – the location is absolutely perfect, maybe even the best in Beau Vallon. It is situated right on the beautiful sandy beach, with the ocean just steps away. We came here to relax, recharge, and enjoy the sea. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed to find out there were ongoing construction works during our stay, making it impossible to rest in some parts of the hotel. What upset us most was that the marketing department (which clearly isn’t based at the hotel) failed to inform us about this in advance. This could have completely ruined our vacation. Luckily, Mr. Chamara (Front Office Manager) and Miss Sakura (Shift Leader) went above and beyond to assist us. They managed to provide us with quiet rooms – not recently renovated, but still with stunning ocean views. Thanks to their help, I was able to enjoy my vacation as I had hoped. The staff overall is numerous – perhaps more than expected – but most of them are genuinely friendly and helpful, which really enhances the experience. Breakfast includes local fruits and dishes, and offers something for everyone – no reason to complain. We also tried the fresh fish at the poolside restaurant, and it was absolutely delicious. Once the renovation is completed, this hotel will be an amazing place to stay – if only the marketing department takes responsibility and improves communication. They didn’t even bother to reply to our two emails about the construction situation, which was quite disappointing. Still, thanks to the exceptional staff on-site, we left with good memories. ⸻ Let me know if you’d like a version in Bulga

Wow a tropical paradise

31 Mar 2025
Wow what an absolutely amazing holiday we’ve just had here , the hotel is realy lovely and right on the beach , everyone is so friendly from the moment we walked in we were met with the biggest smiles and warmest of welcomes and they realy couldn’t do enough for you , the rooms are basic but very clean and looked after , the food was lush and so much choice , I definitely recommend this place and can’t wait to come back again it truly is a tropical paradise , it is very expensive , a pint of lager is about €15 and a vodka and coke is about €19 , but it’s realy priceless for the location , well done coral strand for a amazing holiday Tip .. the travel agent suggests euros as it’s accepted everywhere on the island but definitely take sc rupees you get more for you money , example , taxi from airport to hotel in sc rupees 600 (42€) but if you pay in euros it’s €60 , so sc rupees are best

Tripadvisor Overview

One of the first resorts in Seychelles, the 4-star Coral Strand Smart Choice was opened in 1972. The resort immediately won the hearts of locals and tourists, becoming an integral part of the island life. Coral Strand Smart Choice is located on the North West of Mahe Island, on the famous Beau Vallon beach, which stretches for several kilometers along Beau Vallon Bay. Fine sand, small waves and stunning sunsets make this beach truly special, like no other on the island. The resort is a great starting point for exploring Mahe Island and its main attractions: Morne Seychellois National Park, Marine Reserve, Botanical Garden and the capital of Seychelles - Victoria. It takes only 25 minutes by car to get from Seychelles International Airport to the hotel. The simple and uncluttered design of our guest rooms invites you to unwind after an active day spent outdoors. Coral Strand Smart Choice offers 164 guest rooms furnished with king-size or twin beds with the option of connecting rooms, all equipped with flat-screen TV with international TV channels, Wi-Fi, individual air-conditioning, shower, hairdryer and bathroom amenities. Guests can choose between a mountain view, which offers a breathtaking tropical landscape, or a spectacular view of the Indian Ocean. Start your day with an ocean view breakfast at Island Trader Restaurant. Dine at our gourmet Mahek Restaurant, servicing authentic Indian cuisine, or visit Coral Asia Restaurant, renowned for the best sushi and sashimi in the Seychelles. Our Ocean Deck Bar offers the best sunset views over the ocean. Indulge in tropical cocktails, local beers and the famous Coral Cheese Burger by the Chef. Seychelles is one of the most romantic destinations in the world, where the most beautiful weddings take place. This is also one of the places where the ceremony is held with the issuance of an official marriage certificate, recognized in most countries of the world. Coral Strand Smart Choice has great experience in hosting wedding ceremonies, including the organization of welcome cocktails, receptions, banquets or just a romantic dinner for two.
