Description

An authentic Seychellois experience; from its natural island architecture to its Creole infused menus, the Constance Lémuria resort provides its guests with a real taste for what makes Praslin Island special. Nested on the northwestern shore of the island, the sun-drenched resort reaches across three quiet, sandy beaches and is just a short walk to the waterfront.

Built with palm-thatched roofing and adorned with natural wood and limestone taken from the island, Constance Lémuria’s accommodation provides some essential island charm; a neutral colour scheme complements the bright and airy nature of the rooms. Each suite has its own private terrace or balcony, overlooking the exotic greenery of the area. Larger suites and villas have their own private plunge pool or Jacuzzi.

Constance Lémuria boasts some of the best leisure facilities in the Seychelles, and gains its reputation partly thanks to its 18-hole award winning golf course – the only one in the region. Built to overlook the resort beaches and Indian Ocean, the course features sweeping greens and a truly inspirational backdrop.
