Guesthouse · Pointe Cabris, Praslin
★★★★★ 4.6 (354 Google reviews)
✓ Verified listing · Official Seychelles Tourism registerColibri is a small, family-run guesthouse on the hillside at Pointe Cabris, on the south-east coast of Praslin, with an epic view over the sea. It is an intimate place of around eleven rooms, and it holds 4.6 stars from more than three hundred and fifty reviews. A warm, personal welcome, natural surroundings and a terrace over the water are what guests come back to.
The rooms are well equipped and comfortable, and the ones with a terrace over the sea are the draw, with an epic view that guests mention again and again, along with thoughtful daily touches in the room. The grounds are green and well kept, and the setting is calm, the kind of quiet, natural spot that suits a relaxing stay. Breakfast and dinner get good reviews, fresh and well prepared.
The welcome is what fills the reviews. Guests describe being greeted with a refreshing drink, a cool cloth and even a coconut on arrival, and a team that is warm and helpful throughout. To be straight, one or two guests felt a special occasion could have been marked a little more, but the beauty of the setting and the genuine kindness carry the stay.
Pointe Cabris is on the south-east coast of Praslin, a quiet, green corner about ten minutes from the ferry jetty at Baie Sainte Anne, which makes it an easy base for boat trips to La Digue, Curieuse and the smaller islands. The beaches and shops of Côte d'Or are a short drive away, and the Vallée de Mai palm forest lies inland. Praslin is reached by a quick flight or the fast ferry from Mahé. For a small, welcoming guesthouse with an unforgettable sea view on Praslin, Colibri is one we are glad to recommend.

Excellent place for relaxing vacation. Not too much to see nearby, but then again, all the Praslin is quiet and peaceful. Hotel services were excellent, hotel area had so much natural beauty and was well-maintained all the time. And the personnel were so great. Dinners had a nice variation and they all were well prepa

We were warmly welcomed on arrival for our honeymoon at Colibri. It was the only hotel to offer us a complimentary refreshing drink, cloth and even coconut while we waited in the lobby. We were blown away by the beauty of the room with terrace over the sea, plus the thoughtful room decorations every day. We were touche

We had a pleasant stay at Colibri. From day one, the welcome of their Reservations Manager Mr. Vikesh and his team, we felt very comfortable. The hotel room has all the amenities and the location is perfect with an epic view. Both the breakfast and dinner options are ideal for the season and the food was fresh and deli

We enjoyed our stay very much and the staff is incredibly helpful although there is some room for improvement. We arrived at my birthday itself but apart from a ‘happy birthday’ from the receptionist there was nothing more offered or provided. The venue itself is incredible! The sea-view is amazing, both from the roo

Pointe Cabris sits on the south-east coast of Praslin, a quiet, green headland above the sea, about ten minutes by car from the ferry jetty at Baie Sainte Anne. That makes it a handy base for the island's boat trips, to La Digue, Curieuse and its giant tortoises, and the smaller islands. The coast here is calm and residential, with wide views over the water, and the resort beach of Côte d'Or, with its shops, dive centres and restaurants, is a short drive to the north. The Vallée de Mai, the UNESCO palm forest where the coco de mer grows, is inland, and Anse Lazio is on the far side of the island. Praslin is reached by a quick flight or the fast ferry from Mahé, and a hire car makes the most of it.
