The property
All-villa, hillside, butler service
Raffles is laid out across a slope above the bay, so every villa has a plunge pool and an outlook over the water toward the neighbouring islands. It is the most straightforwardly comfortable luxury option on Praslin — large villas, a big spa, a proper kids' club — and it works well as the second leg of a Mahé-Praslin-La Digue itinerary. Anse Lazio, another of the island's famous beaches, is a short drive away.
Where you sleep
3 villa categories
All villas, each with private plunge pool and outdoor pavilion. Which one is right depends on the month and who is travelling — that is the first thing we will ask.

What makes it itself
Why people choose it
- 01
A private beach
The sand in front of the resort is its own, so the walk from your room to the water crosses nobody else.
- 02
A full spa
Treatments on the property — massage, steam room, sauna, so a bad-weather afternoon has somewhere to go.
- 03
Diving and snorkelling
Run from the resort, which matters here: the boat leaves from your own jetty rather than an hour up the coast.
- 04
A children's club
Supervised hours for the children, which is the difference between a holiday and a fortnight of childcare with a view.
