The Britannia Hotel  

Perched on Praslin Island’s Grand Anse coast, this cosy guesthouse sits a short walk from Grand Anse Beach and close to Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve. It’s a family-friendly base near Anse Takamaka and Anse Volbert, about 3 km from the island’s center.

A small, cosy hotel with 12 Superior rooms that open onto pool or garden views and private balconies or patios. Rooms pack modern basics—minibar/refrigerator, flat-screen TV, air conditioning and private bathrooms with complimentary toiletries and hairdryers—and the property runs a complimentary weekly bus to Anse Lazio and Cote D'Or.

Dip in pool facilities and stroll the garden terraces; there’s an on-site bar, shops and a gift shop to browse. Family-friendly extras include a children’s playroom and a diving club nearby, plus practical services like laundry, car rental and onsite parking—wake up to sea-breeze mornings a stone’s throw from Grand Anse.

Wi‑Fi is available throughout the property and a concierge/tour desk can help arrange transfers and excursions; free self-parking is on site and the front desk is staffed during limited hours.

The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with a blend of International and Creole dishes, plus an a la carte menu and Creole buffet on select nights. A bar on site keeps things casual for evening drinks after a day on the beach.
