Coral Strand Smart Choice Hotel

Spent 7 days with the baby in Coral Strand and we just loved it! Right on the beach, few restaurants to choose from, nice rooms (recently renovated). This is such an amazing choice for a family stay! The hotel is very clean. We’d heard that there were renovations, but you could only hear some noise when at the pool, our room was very quiet. The breakfast was good as well. However, we found the staff to be the best! Everyone was so welcoming, nice, always there to assist (and we needed assistance with the baby, baby chair, this and that, you name it - they were on it). We loved Sakura best, she was the one to welcome us and really set the tone of our stay. We are in awe of her (especially the baby)! All in all, five star stay, highly recommend!

We had a wonderful family holiday at Coral Strand. A special thanks to the manager, Chamara, for the lovely birthday welcome gift and the beautiful flower arrangement – it truly made our stay extra special. The rooms were clean and recently renovated, and although there were some ongoing renovations in the hotel, it didn’t affect the quality of our stay. The hotel staff were extremely friendly and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. Each room was equipped with an iron and a safe, and the view… simply unforgettable – overlooking the most beautiful beach on Mahé! The only downside was the food in the restaurant, which was just average. Still, we had a relaxing and enjoyable time overall.

The location is perfect, right on a beautiful beach, and the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. The hotel is clean, prices are reasonable, and the construction didn’t bother us at all. Rooms are small but clean. The biggest downside was definitely the mattress — honestly the worst I have ever slept on anywhere in the world, even compared to cheap hostels. The air conditioning was also too noisy and dripping water even in the new room. Despite this, we enjoyed our stay thanks to the great beach, location, and wonderful staff.
