Set on the northwest coast of Mahé, Coral Strand Smart Choice Hotel enjoys one of Seychelles' most loved spots. Beau Vallon beach runs along the hotel, with fine sand, calm waves, and sunsets that steal the show. The hotel is about 25 minutes by car from Seychelles International Airport. The location also suits days out, with Victoria, Morne Seychellois National Park, marine reserves and the Botanical Garden all nearby.

Rooms at Coral Strand Smart Choice Hotel maintain a calm, bright and easy atmosphere. You can choose king or twin beds, plus connecting rooms for more space with your party. Each room includes air conditioning and a balcony, adding a lovely outdoor touch to each day. Views face the lush mountainside or the Indian Ocean, keeping the setting close from morning to night.

Days unfold at a gentle pace, with Beau Vallon beach as the main draw. You can swim in clear water, stroll along the long sweep of sand and pause for one of the island's finest sunsets. Sunday volleyball brings a lively beach mood. In the garden, giant tortoises add a rare local touch, and children can feed them. The hotel also offers island tours, sea trips and scenic hiking trails nearby.

Life here feels easy from the start. The hotel sits on the beach and offers 163 rooms, all with air conditioning and a balcony. Connecting rooms provide convenience for families or friends travelling together. Dining includes buffet spreads, Indian dishes, sushi and sunset drinks, giving each part of the day its own mood. There is also space for meetings, island trips and small touches that make a stay smooth and refined.

Dining offers a real variety here. Island Trader starts the day with breakfast and ocean views, then shifts to themed buffet dinners as the light fades. Mahek serves rich Indian dishes in an elegant room with clear views into the kitchen. Coral Asia pairs sushi, sashimi and fresh seafood with a terrace above Beau Vallon beach. Later, Ocean Deck Bar sets the tone for cocktails, local beer and a glowing sunset each evening.

For special moments, Coral Strand Smart Choice Hotel feels warm, polished and full of romance. The setting on Beau Vallon beach suits weddings and honeymoons with ease, from a simple dinner for two to a full celebration with welcome cocktails, receptions and banquets. Seychelles also issues official marriage certificates recognised by many countries, which adds real value. For other gatherings, the hotel offers two event spaces that are well-suited to stylish business or private occasions.
