Best beach in Praslin!!
We would go back on a heartbeat. We were extremely lucky to meet Georgette. She helped us organize activities and gave us multiple tips to ensure our vacation was a success. The location was amazing, the place very well maintained, and the people extremely hospitable. Next time we will stay more than 4 days!

Wonderful Stay!
We loved every minute of our 6 night stay. Annia is a wonderful Friendly and welcoming host. Anything you need or want to know just ask and she'll be more than happy to help and always with a smile.The Island of Praslin is stunning and footprints is an excellent accommodation with a small pool, beach access and a wonderful array of flora and fauna in its grounds.Our accommodation consisted of an open plan Kitchen and living room, a large bedroom with a king bed and on suite shower room. It had everything we needed for our stay and was cleaned daily. The beach is amazing and was uncrowded. My wife and I really enjoyed swimming in the beautiful warm sea. We also enjoyed kayaking and Kayaks are complimentary at footprints. We would highly recommend this property for your stay on Praslin.

Toppenbra!
Toppenboende. Rent och fint. Nära till lite affärer o restauranger. Lugnt och fint område med mycket grönska. Liten fin pool. Vi bodde i hus nummer 2, vilket var näst närmast havet. Liten trapp ner till havet. Vi hade en härlig vistelse.

L'espace du logis, la propreté, l'intimité, les commodités, la vue sur la mer, la magnifique végétation et la gentillesse des gens, tout était super, sauf le lit qui est un peu trop ferme pour nous et d'ailleurs la majorité des lits des 5 hébergements occupés aux Seychelles avaient ce type de lit.

Wunderschöne Villen mit schöner Terrasse
Wir können diese Unterkunft sehr empfehlen. Annia hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen und uns mit vielen Informationen zur Insel und Unterkunft versorgt. Die Villen sind sehr gepflegt und sehr schön eingerichtet. Auch die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Wir hatten eine tolle entspannte Zeit. Meeresrauschen auf der Terrasse und jede Menge Vögel in dem liebevoll angelegten Garten inklusive. Würden diese Unterkunft jederzeit wieder wählen.

Schöne Häuser an einem Traumstrand
Alles in allem ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt. Wunderschöne Lage direkt an einem Traumstrand. Man sollte nur nicht auf dem eingezäunten Hotelgelände sein Portemonnaie verlieren. Das finden dann die Securities und man bekommt es dann am nächsten Tag ohne Geld wieder.
Die Anlage ist in einem top Zustand und neuwertig. Die Lage einmalig. Die Fussböden in den Villen könnten öfters feucht aufgenommen werden. Die junge Managerin ist sehr kurz angebunden und die Rezeption ist viel unbesetzt. Wären da nicht die zuvorkommenden Angestellten in der Anlage, wäre man aufgeschmissen.
We appreciated location close to the beach anse volbert and enjoyed beach walking. The garden of this hotel was very well maintained and we enjoyed view from the chalet. Chalet itself was in a good shape and spacy and full equipped. Self catering was no problem, markets are quite close. Annia, manager of the hotel, was very friendly and helpful with all our needs. We enjoyed memorable stay and we can recommend Footprints. If we return to Praslin, Footprints would be 1st choice again.
Great hotel, bungalows only seconds away from one of the most beautyfull beaches of Seychelles. Really a great choice, 3 mins away by foot from the small village and restaurants.
Fantastic chalet with a stunning view. Annia was wonderful right from check in to departure. Everything you need in the chalets. Could do with air con in the living room area but other than that amazing. Short walk to shops and restaurants.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet établissement.
La maison était parfaite : très bien équipée (notamment la cuisine) , très bien située (maison numéro 9, face à la mer,pour nous la mieux placée ). Propreté irréprochable. Personnel très sympathique.
Un seul regret : le petit déjeuner n est plus disponible depuis quelques mois.
Nous reviendrons....
Jättefint litet lugnt ställe precis vid vackra Cote dor stranden. Välskött och rent. Prydligt och rejält. Vi saknade inget i vare sig kök eller i övrigt. Liten fin pool som man kunde hänga vid med solsängar o parasoll. Cirka 3 minuters gång till byn med restauranger. Tips: ta ficklampa med dig vid utegång efter solen gått ner. Nära till busstop.Kan varmt rekommendera stället.
Trevlig o lugnt litet ställe. Rent o propert. Hög standard. Saknade inget förutom äggkoppar i köket :) men det gick utan. 2 minuters gångavstånd till bra restaurang. Ytterligare 1 minut gång till Supermarket o Praslins bästa pizzeria. Liten by med ett fåtal restauranger men tillräckligt för oss som tillbringade 6 nätter på Footprints. Ren o vacker strand några få steg från bungalow. Litet men välskött poolområde. Kan varmt rekommenderas.
Me and my husband stayed for 3 nights at the Footprints as a part of our honeymoon. The manager welcomed us with a friendly smile when we checked in. We had a fruit basket wrapped up at the table when we entered the cabin. The cabin was very nice, clean and had a lovey terrace overlooking the pool area. The pool area is relatively small and the swimming pool as well. But it is located at the beach so it does not make a difference. The location is good, a short walk to the nearest supermarket, ATM and resturants. The manager was very helpful and organised a day trip for us to La Digue and a driver to take us to Vallée de Mai. Overall we had a very nice and experience at the Footprints.
Location is considered "black point" of Praslin due to crime towards tourists in the area. I would not recommend staying in Cote d'or due to this. Additionally, there were multiple lizards crawling in the room. At first this was ok until they got into our baggage. The shower flooded every time we took a shower due to the lack of enclosure. The bed was by far the worst part of the stay. It was incredibly uncomfortable, this was only worsened due to the lack of a duvet or comforter.
Fantastic hotel with my wife and my little son 18 gets there.
Do not forget to write a message or an email to inform the arrival time because the lady waiting for you if you do not receive information ... very angry and speck you with yourself as a teacher with students who have not studied.
Be careful :)
Super chalet, spacieux, confortable, calme.
Accueil super également.
Tres belles plage
Tres bonne situation, restos, epiceries et autre a moins de 5 min a pied
Superbe séjour de 5 nuits. L'emplacement de cet établissement est magnifique. L'état des maisons est parfait. L'accueil et la disponibilité était géniale.
Encore merci pour tout !
