Pluses: Gorgeous Views. Outlying location. Nice and quiet.
Minuses: Uncomfortable beds. Pushy, unfriendly staff. We felt that the Patatran village was not good value for money. We stayed in three other hotels in the seychelles. All of them were more friendly. Especially Iles de Palmes on Praslin.

 Night beach by Saagar
We wanted a hotel with easy access to the airport (10-15 minutes), with good standard and direct access to the beach for a last evening dip in the Indian Ocean.
The room was well furnished to handle luggage repacking - spacious, floor space for the suitcase, shelves, a large wardrobe a good shower, air condition and a coffee corner. Outside was a fanned terrace.The service was impeccable. However, as tourism also here had seen a downturn and there weren't that many guests about apart form a large travel group (German/Italians). While the group had a set menu, the a la carte options were severely restricted due to limited food stocks in the kitchen. We settled for grilled fish that can never fail in the Seychelles.
The next morning we had a fruit-focussed buffet breakfast and took off for the airport.
Large casual sitting/bar area under a roof near the open reception, very sociable set-up generally. A rustic bar seemed to have most types of local and international fuels.
The beach is very, very nice, reef protected, and it was lit up at night just below the hotel, so night swimming was good on high tide, anyway. Sun chairs etc. were lined up for the hotel's guests and casual beach walkers.
If going to the Seychelles again I would choose this hotel once more for a transit hotel if returning from or departing for the other islands. It's a perfect set-up, but without the mood of temporaryness. Theme: HotelPrice: US$40-80 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Casuarina Beach, south of the airport.Directions: Taxi or bus south from the airport, on your left(east) side after 10minutes - 6 kilometres. The drivers will know exactly where. In daylight, look for the sign.

 Guest Quarters by kyoub
We had one side a double bungalow with a nice patio, large bedroom, & a shower,.
The grounds were nicely kept and we saw many birds there.
There was a large open air restaurant that served good food.
There was no view but it was a short walk or ride to the beach or town.

 Great View by kyoub
Beautiful self catering bungalows over looking the bay.
Owner came by to welcome us on our first night there and invited us to be their guests for dinner.
There is a pool now but there wasn't when we stayed there.
There are nice views over the bay.
We watched the flying foxes leave of an evening and return the next morning.
Close by is very good snorkeling and a convenience store.
Good restaurant nearby also.

There is a charming restaurant that offers a grill on Wednesday and a Creole buffet on Saturday, both with live music.
The food is very good and they give exceptional service although it is always a full house in the restaurant. There was when we were there anyway.
The hotel has a swimming pool, tennis courts and a pool table and offers windsurfing, canoe and boat excursions to the little off islands.

 Inside the room by wadekorzan
First of all, ANNIE. Annie, who works at the hotel, is the sweetest, kindest person and you will be made so welcome by her...then there is the fact that the room is furnished SO nicely--you feel so at home. The kitchen is great and we cooked alot of our own meals. The kitchen was big and had everything you could possibly need, and best of all, we ate on the balcony outside that had the most incredible view just over the beach, looking out on to Beau Vallon Bay... Theme: OtherPrice: US$120-180 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageDirections: Located in Bel Ombre, not far from the biggest and most famous beach called Beau Vallon. Beau Vallon is busy with lots of people, and if you like that, you could stay right at Beau Vallon Beach. We stayed here and ti was PERFECT.Other Contact: Tel: 247 474

 Available - Emmanuelle just
moved out! by Saagar
If you are able to a) take that long holidays, b) take your work with you, or c) have a business or job to do on the Seychelles, you can opt for a long-term deal like this offered by locals.
It may not be entirely legal, so check carefully how this deal is going to be made, and if there is an element of tax evasion in the picture. Maybe it is possible to wring a deal for shorter time, too, or have several persons share the time (segmented, staggered holidays). Theme: OtherComparison: least expensiveAddress: Local people may approach.

 Frangipani, the most romantic
flower? by Saagar
Stayed our first 4 nights in the Seychelles here, and used the place as a base for exploring Mahe island, the capital Victoria and for lazying around the Beu Vallon area.
It was very roomy and better standard and better equipped than the internet information gave the impression of. Very close to everything on Beu Vallon, and without the disadvantage of too close proximity to the larger hotels with their disco beat and floodlights.
Short stroll down to the Beau Vallon Beach for a morning dip in the ocean breakers.
Roomy, very good quality bungalow with a verandah and garden spot. Kitchenette with the necessary facilities for self-catering.
B&B possible for a little extra, we did not take the breakfast.
Connected to a good Creole restaurant (same owners?) for a good lunch and dinner, the same place as for breakfast.
The Baobab Pizzeria is right down on the beach.
Service oriented and very nice staff.
Connected to sightseeing and fishing operators, could organize just about everything certainly we would be interested in if we had stayed on Mahe (we moved on to La Digue).

 Accommodation on Praslin by Sunchild
We stayed there in June and would not advise to stay on this side of the island at that time of the year, as there were tons of seagras on the beaches due to the monsun!
It did not really effect us, as we were sigtseeing the island most of the time anyway, but it would have been nice to be able to just let the day end on our "local" beach.
Nice guesthouse, good food!
We were informed that a 4star hotel on their areal was planned at the time. This might have been finished by now, nearly 3 years later, so we are not sure, if the guesthouse still exists!
