Welcome to Criollo House, a luxury boutique hotel and private villas in the heart of Beau Vallon. With unrivalled views over the Indian Ocean and lush tropical mountains, our luxury hotel is the perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy the Seychelles, the Creole way. Nestled in the centre of famous Beau Vallon Beach, just steps through the garden and you are standing on the powdery white sand. This colonial gem is a stay like no other, just seven king sized suites, we guarantee a personalised, luxury experience, showcasing true Creole hospitality. Perfect for families and groups, we also have four Luxury Private Pool Villas available. Each villas has its own personal plunge pool, sun deck and veranda with outdoor seating. Our villas are self-catered, fully furnished and equipped with all you need to cook up a feast. Of course you can also choose to have a break from cooking and eat at the hotel! If you are looking for a unique and memorable experience of a life, you've found it at Criollo House.
Hello, we are Loulou and Francesco Guarnaccia. Loulou''s Grandmother is a local Seychellois and built Criollo House many years ago. After getting married we decided to move from London to the Seychelles to run the family business and offer guests an amazing stay in a totally unique hotel! After many years working as a chef in London, we use the best of the local produce to cook up sensational meals at Criollo. Adventure is our passion, we know all the best secret local spots for hiking, rock pool adventures and waterfalls. Our warm and friendly local staff love to share their favourite tips about the island and leave our guests with a true experience of Creole hospitality. Come and enjoy Seychelles the local way!
Beau Vallon is the most famous beach on Mahe, and for good reason. Wide and sweeping, its white sands extend for hundred of meters, back by lush coconut and Takamaka trees, Beau Vallon offers great atmosphere, delicious food, amazing sun bathing, swimming and snorkelling all in a safe and friendly environment. Within 10 minutes walking distance of Criollo House you will find ATM, Money Exchange, Pharmacy, Liquor store and supermarkets. As well as our delicious onsite restaurant, there are many wonderful restaurants and Bars to choose from, all within a few minutes walk down the beach. Just 10 minutes drive and you are in central Victoria, perfect for exploring the local fish market and buying some fresh tropical fruits. The botanical gardens and National museum are both close by. Why not rent a car and road trip around the island? You can drive around the entire island in a day, but we suspect you'll want longer, with all the gorgeous hidden beaches and lush tropical jungle to explore.
