We had a wonderful stay at L'Hirondelle. The apartment was perfect, the location was fantastic, and the service was second to none. We highly recommend L'Hirondelle.

Boutique place. Very clean and comfortable. Across the road from a beautiful beach. Cleaned the room every day. You can get take away from a lot of places near by and eat in the AC. Really enjoy our stay.

Delightful guest house fit our needs perfectly. Large family 2 parents, 4 kids. we got two rooms. Walking distance to corner grocery, restaurants, dive shop, and most importantly, Gold Coast beaches of Praslin! Just the right balance of space, nice patio, simple kitchen.

Clean and nice department with beautiful view. Helpfull and friendly staff. Unfortunately a lot of noise from the road. Beach full of sandflies.

Brilliant small guest house, amazing sea views

Lovely large apartment with great facilities. The balconies from the sea view rooms are amazing with very nice furniture. The kitchen is well equipped, although we mainly just walked 10 mins (out of the gate and left) to several lovely restaurants. The four poster bed is perfect and so pretty. Loved it! Would 100% recommend.

Jรคttebra litet hotell precis vid stranden. Rent och snyggt. Lรคgenheterna har stora balkonger mot stranden. Kรถket รคr utrustat med allt som behรถvs. Affรคr finns en kort promenad bort.

Lรคget รคr bra. Nรคra havet och ett litet samhรคlle med mataffรคren o fiskmarknad. Lรคgenheten รคr ocksรฅ bra och mysig med balkong mot havet. Vackra morgonen med himmel o havet innan trafiken med bussar och bilar bรถrjar eftersom det kan vara stรถrande. Mycket vรคnlig och hjรคlpsam personal. Maggi i receptionen รคr lyssnade.

Trevlig personal, trรฅkigt lรคge.

Mycket trevlig och hjรคlpsam personal. Rummet var visserligen rent fรถrutom vissa skrymslen t.ex i badrummet, men tyvรคrr ganska fult och otrivsamt. Lรคget pรฅ Anse Volbert trodde vi skulle vara optimalt vid den lรฅnga stranden med restauranger och butiker i nรคrheten, men Anse Volbert รคr inte en strand man trivs pรฅ. Den รคr extremt lรฅnggrund och kรคnns lite smutsig. Om vi skulle รฅka igen hade vi valt nรฅgot annat, gรคrna nรคrmare Anse Lazio eller Anse Georgette.

Wonderful stay

Right from the start, I felt at home at the Lโ€˜Hirondelle. The room was very clean and decorated with style and love to details. We were in a Garden Room with still a good view to the sea which I requested and appreciate a lot. The staff, including owner, cleaning ladies and night security guard were all extremely friendly and helpful. Location is fantastic as well. Right over the street you find shady places on the beach. 5-10 minutes walk to restaurants, take- aways and supermarkets. Try all the exotic fruits from the fruit stands!
