Overview of Raffles Praslin

Raffles Praslin is a luxurious Seychelles resort, situated on the island of Praslin. Once declared the re-discovered Garden of Eden, the resort consists solely of hillside villas overlooking the beautiful ocean. Ideal for romantics or honeymooners, each of these villas are surrounded by tropical vegetation, offering privacy and a personal feel.
