Unique experience of a wooden house on beach
A completely wooden built house just right next to the beach. The lady which manages it is very kind & nice. Not sure why it's reviews are not high. It's one of a unique experience to live in a small wooden house with a kitchen & airconditioner. Definitely recommend staying for 2 days, which is what we did for our 4 days stay in Praslin.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017
glad you enjoyed your stay.

Absolute NO NO
There was theft in my room. The entire cash was stolen from my wallet from the room. There is no proper security. The bungalows are in the middle of nowhere. It is very difficult to go anywhere unless you rent a car. The beach opposite to the bungalow is very dirty. You can't even step there, so don't get tempted by beach facing location.
Response from General Manager on 24 Jan 2017
We are sorry that there was a theft, from feedback from the hotel manager, there were none hotel quest invited by the customer. Each room has a safe! and you should have used it. This is the first theft ever at our establishment since we opened the place. The bungalows are in a location for people searching for a quite relaxing beach bungalow. If your after a more busting location is important to check out other hotels that suited for you. There are small shops near by, only 3 minutes drive from the airport. Depending on season the beach can experience seaweed, apart from that the beaches are quite clean.

Lovely guesthouse
We were surprised on arrival at how beautiful the bungalows were. There's everything you need for a self catering break! It's very clean and welcoming. There are two good shops close by and a bus stop outside.The owner is very accommodating and will help with anything you need. There is a vast expanse beach 10metres from the room where you can watch a beautiful sunset.

Cute bungalows on the beach, bit far from anywhere
My husband and I stayed for 4 nights, and Praslin is definitely worth a visit. The bungalows were small but ok for 4 nights, and with the high prices in Seychelles for accommodation you cant do much cheaper! The owner thoughtfully supplied complimentary milk and loaf of bread on arrival which was a nice touch. The downside is that the beach they are situated on is not as picturesque as the other side of the island. There is no shade on the beach so Lou Lou's really need to supply beach umbrellas. There is a bus stop not far from the bungalows to go to the more beautiful areas like Anse Lazio & Anse Takamaka

Don't waste your time
Didn't like the location, 30 mins from the Jetty (my fault for not doing my research), 5 min walk to nearest shop, and nearest town centre was 5 mins on the bus, which thankfully they seem to run about every 5/6 mins. The property is on shared land with a private residence, to which the home owner has Dogs, who barked all night The bathroom area is tiny, and I didn't have hot water to shower for the 2 nights I stayed! The beach, completely covered in seaweed, I know it's a natural thing and can't be helped, a little bit of a clean up of the beach would've been nice! However, you want your clients to be comfortable, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings, and they in turn will recommend your premises. I won't be recommending these premises, I wish I'd paid more and stayed at a resort

Convenient stay for airport
We stayed overnight at Lou Lou after arriving at the airport. The guest house is very convenient (a short walk) if arriving or departing from the (very small quiet) airport. It has a little beach right outside the rooms, although the beach isn't stunning, it's quite nice. The family dogs are really cute and friendly but at night time they barked for a couple of hours which made it difficult to get to sleep. There is complimentary bread, tea/coffee, jam and butter which is really nice touch and welcome after a long trip. The owner was really friendly and dropped us off at the jetty.

Secluded and unique for honeymoon
Lou Lou bungalows offer very good value for money. The staff are helpful and friendly. The bungalow itself exceeded my expecations and is of a very high standard. It is the ideal self-catering option and offers full functionality in a very comfortable bungalow.

Fantastic!
We had the best time at Lou Lou bungalows. They have 2 bungalows and they are brand new! Location is great, right on the beach (beach is not the best on the island, but it is right in front of your doors), owners are very nice, bungalows were clean, you have a very nice garden with BBQ and you can walk there from the airport (about 400 meters). I highly recommend these self catering bungalows!

There is no airport transportation service! :(
The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful and the hotel was very clean and well organised. The only problem was the info at the Hotel.com site saying there was an transportation service to and from the airport which the owner had already complained to the site that it was wrong and the site never altered. Whether or not having a free transportation service is an important factor to choose a hotel where the taxi costs are a way too high so I feel like being cheated by the site. There is nothing wrong with the hotel though.

Hübscher Holzbungalow am Strand
Wir waren von den geplanten 3 Tagen nur 1 Tag geblieben. Mehrere Gründe: Kreditkarte wurde nicht akzeptiert (nur Barzahlung, worauf wir nicht vorbereitet waren). Der Besitzer war letztlich damit einverstanden, dass wir uns etwas anderes suchten und hat nur die Kosten für 1 Tag verlangt. Direkt am Bungalow war eine Baustelle, viele herumstreunende Hunde, der Strand / Wasser von Seegras verschmutzt. Zudem ist es für 3 Personen (2 Erw. und ein Kind) winzig. Man kann sich nur im Bett oder auf der Veranda aufhalten. Die Küche ist ganz ok. Eine Rezeption oder Ansprechpartner vor Ort gibt es auch nicht, nur eine Hausdame, die wohl morgens vorbeischaut. Die Einfahrt zur Anlage ist ziemlich uneinsehbar und daher gefährlich. Zu einer anderen Jahreszeit soll der Strand super sein, dann ist es für Frischverliebte sicher sehr schön.

Thanks for visiting loulou bungalows, unfortunately we cannot control dogs walking on the beach nor construction of other hotels in the area.

Lamentable, honteux, scandaleux. Le lit d'appoint était un lit de camp, la télé ne fonctionnait pas, wifi payant et les chiens de la voisine qui aboient toute la nuit. A éviter

Séjour excellent à Praslin
Arrivés à Loulou Bungalows (du 2 au 9 mai), nous avons été très chaleureusement accueillis par Chantal. Le Bungalows est à 45 mètres de la plage, le cadre est très agréable. Proche de tous commerces, Chantal s'est empressée de nous mettre en contact avec un loueur de voiture pour que l'on puisse visiter toute l île sans contrainte. Je recommande vivement cet établissement pour un séjour au calme et à 2 pas de la plage et d'un très bon site de plongée. Merci encore à Chantal pour son accueil et sa gentillesse.

Calme et dépaysant
Loulou bungalow est situé à peine 3 mn de l'aéroport, mais je vous rassure c'est le calme total. Pied dans l'eau, on voit les bateaux qui traversent notre vue. La plage serait belle si y avait le dépôt d'algues. Au niveau confort, il nous manquait rien.L'alimentation principal à Praslin, c'est le Poisson (pas cher!!-attendez les pêcheurs au bord de la plage). Le bungalow possède tous les ustensiles de cuisine pour faire cuire le poisson (friture, bbc,carry)Quel régal!!!. Chantal, est accueillante,souriante et discrète, toujours prête à nous aider,conseiller.

Baulärm & Schimmel
Wir waren so enttäuscht, dass wir noch am ersten Abend ein anderes Hotel gebucht haben für den Rest unseres Aufenthalts. Gründe: Bauarbeiten auf dem Nachbargrundstück bis spät in die Nacht, Schimmel im Bad gefährlicher Weg bis zum nächsten Shop / Restaurant.

Bungalows récents face mer
Il s'agit de 2 bungalows cote à cote très bien équipés à 20 m de la mer et à la sortie du village. Vous trouvez tout dans le village ; commerces, resto, distributeur, take away. Seuls reproches: la chambre n'est pas nettoyée (certainement car cuisine équipée) et proximité avec l'autre bungalow. A recommander toutefois

Bungalows idylliques avec aboiements
Les phots parlent d'elles mêmes : bungalows au look d'intérieur de bateau, bien équipés, jardin exotique (un peu sauvage) donnant sur la plage. Elle ne fait pas partie des plages "carte postale" de Praslin, quelques algues dans l'eau. L'emplacement est intéressant : 10 minutes à pied de l'aérogare, 1 arrêt de bus en face, 1 mini market à 5 minutes, 1 seul resto ("café le monde") à 10 minutes, très bon, mais pour le reste, aucune ville digne de ce nom à proximité. L'accueil par Chantal se fait le matin (sinon, téléphoner pour la clef, car il n'y a pas de "réception"). Elle est très gentille et de bon conseil. En points négatifs : les 5 chiens de la propriétaires qui dorment dehors et jouent le rôle d'alarme sonore, très attentive, même trop ! Si vous aimez les réveils ultra matinaux par aboiement, parfait ! L'eau chaude de la douche ... n'est pas chaude, mais ce n'est pas bien grave compte tenu des températures extérieures.

bungalow precis vid stranden till bra pris
Underbar bungalow precis vid stranden. Inget för den hundrädde - fem hundar (jättesöta och keliga) finns på gården till ägarens hus. Ligger på andra sidan ön från färjan, men fem minuters promenad till flygplatsen. Fräsch bungalow, eget kokpentry och frukt, bröd, mjölk och smör finns och ingår. Busshållplats finns precis utanför, men rekommenderar bil så man kan ta sig runt. Kilometerslång strand utanför med snorklingsmöjligheter.

舒适干净安全有家庭感的酒店
酒店靠近普兰拉机场,离码头很远不是很方便,打车费用也高,走路五分钟有当地人开的小超市,附近也有很多酒店。这家旅店老板是法国人,入住当天会给准备一包面包奶酪一瓶水及咖啡水果等,房间有空调但不冷,有厨房及厨房用具可以自己煮饭来的。老板娘基本白天会来酒店看下,晚上不在一切都是自助的,卫生也不打扫,算是比较有家庭的感觉,房间面朝海边,环境比较好,周边是居民区,有很多猫狗,晚上会叫个鸡犬不宁。HOTELS提供的价钱也算是有竞争力的,会推荐其他朋友入住。
