Things to do

Situated on the breathtaking Cote d’Or beach, the Acajou Beach Resort is a Seychellois-owned business. The owners believe the Seychelles, its islands and its people, are a collective treasure to be shared with the world, and take pride in their efforts toward embodying that treasure through the resort.

The original Acajou Hotel first opened in 1996, its name derived from the French word for “mahogany,” in a nod to the natural timber-themed design of its construction, with wood that was specifically cultivated in an ecologically friendly manner. In keeping with this commitment to the environment, the hotel’s 2014 refurbishment has been carefully planned so as to take advantage of modern technology and dramatically reduce the hotel’s carbon footprint.

The resort is offering a uniquely authentic experience for its guests, while operating in a sustainable way that safeguards the environment and at the same time promotes and protects Seychelles’ Creole culture and values.

Fron Acajou Beach Resort to the Praslin Airport is about 25 minutes. If you prefer to go by boat the Sainte Anne Jetty is about 10 minutes from the complex.

Specials

Sustainability & Eco-friendly Practices
The installation of a new photovoltaic solar panel system will see the vast majority of the resort’s lighting and air-conditioning needs powered completely by the sun, in what has been a major long-term investment for a locally owned hotel.

A new waste management system and sewage treatment plant has also been installed to limit the impact of waste that the hotel generates for its operation. Along these lines, the hotel has also embarked on a composting project that will aid in the landscaping of the hotel and its own subsistence produce, for the vegetables, fruits and spices that are grown on site.

Restaurants/bars

Les Boucaniers
Just like the veranda of a traditional plantation house, Les Boucaniers offers an intimate dining atmosphere immersed in Creole flair and rustic beauty.

With its concept of French-style cooking using ingredients and flavours of the Indian Ocean rim, Les Boucaniers echoes the islands' history as a crossroads for explorers, pirates and traders from a variety of cultures, each imparting their own influence on the islands.

The restaurant hence takes its name from the rock formations in the sea that lie directly in front of the resort, which were coined "The Buccaneers" or Les Boucaniers in French, in recognition of this fascinating history and the ambience we've strived to create.

Les Boucaniers is housed in the resort's main concourse, serving a full American buffet breakfast every morning, and dinner service every evening.

Starfish Bar & Restaurant
The spot on Praslin's Cote D'Or beach for casual, affordable dining in an exclusive atmosphere, Acajou's Starfish Bar & Restaurant is open daily for both in-house residents and outsiders alike.

The menu at Starfish combines a delightful selection of international bistro classics, including snacks, salads and sandwiches, as well as traditional Creole specialities of fresh grilled fish and a variety of curries, among them the renowned signature dish of octopus curry with coconut milk.

Go to the bar to cool off from the island heat, with always-cold soft drinks and beers, or refreshing cocktails made with fresh fruit picked on-site at the hotel.

Chapo!
Whether for afternoon tea or an evening aperitif, Chapo! Bar & Lounge serves up intimate island ambience for travellers from around the world to share company, conversation...and occasionally their hats.

Activities

With one of the best beaches in Seychelles in the front yard, an amazing infinity pool and on-site massage suite, you may find little motivation to leave the hotel grounds.

Soak in the stunning beachfront location in total comfort: sun loungers and umbrellas are reserved for guests on the pool deck and on the beach itself, with towel service provided as well.

Whether you’re taking a dip or a bit of sun, ask the bartender to whip up a refreshing cocktail to be served poolside, or at your spot in the sand.

The fully air-conditioned gym offers cardio and multi-exercise weight-training equipment. For those guests in need of a little restoration, treatments can be booked with a qualified therapist in the relaxing massage room.

Praslin (Seychelles)

Of the 115 islands that make up the Seychelles, one stands out as having its most iconic features and distinctions: Praslin, the “Isle of Palms,” as christened by explorer Lazare Picault in the mid-1700s. On this small but stunningly diverse island, the beaches merely scratch the surface of the wonders to be found here.

And what you might have thought was simply a sun, sea and sand holiday destination soon gives way to the notion that there’s a much more primal, even mystic, quality about the island – one that defies explanation for most.

The famous British general, Charles George Gordon, could be counted among those who would attempt to figure out why, and he arrived at a startling conclusion. During his time in the Seychelles, he became convinced that the Vallée de Mai, the ancient palm forest on Praslin which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was the original Garden of Eden.

Praslin, with a population of 6,500 people, is Seychelles’ second largest island.

To summarize: With stunning white sand beaches and lush tropical forests covering the hills, the island Praslin is a delight.
