Boutique hotel Le Nautique excels in every category: location, rooms, food, and service. 1) Can’t beat the location — near the ferry terminal along the coast, facing the sunset and Praslin island. Watch fish swim while you eat your breakfast. 2) Nautically themed rooms with vaulted ceilings are spotlessly clean. Loved garden room 10 which is on the second floor (with private stairs and entryway) with windows on three sides and even a surprise ocean view. New furnishings. Quiet air conditioning. Comfortable bed. Luxurious fluffy towels. Powerful rain shower head. Smith & Co toiletries smell of fragrant tabac flower and cedar wood. Jute rope floor lamp. Room has mini fridge, nespresso machine, iron, and safe. 3) The hotel restaurant is superb. Recommend half board (45 euros per person per day, must book for entire hotel stay) includes appetizer, main course , and dessert. The pork belly bites, king garlic prawns, and chocolate lover dessert are our favorites. 4) Service is attentive and thoughtful. Picked us up and dropped us off from the ferry with golf cart. Briefed with map of the island (including info on hill to Grand Anse and where to swim/ snorkel.) Packed a hearty breakfast to-go with yogurt, fruit, hard boiled eggs, and pastries when we checked out early in the morning. Restaurant server Jenny is excellent. Owner Natasha is omnipresent to ensure stay is top notch. Incredible attention to detail , down to the restaurant seating chart. Hotel bicycle rental is a bargain at 100 SCR per day per bicycle (actually cheaper than outside) for shiny new bicycles with gears (needed for hills), quality brakes, and baskets. Overall, highly recommend Le Nautique, and I can’t wait to come back.
