Constance Lemuria - Praslin Island

Overview

Other facilities

Constance Lemuria’s 18-hole golf course is unique to the Seychelles. It covers over 5,000 metres and hosts the renowned MCB Tour Championship. Golfers of all abilities can tee off here, surrounded by panoramic vistas of the Indian Ocean and rolling hills. Green fees are complimentary, and you can hire your own golf buggy for an additional charge. Those who want to perfect their swing can even take up private or group lessons with resident golf professionals.

The resort is nestled into a rocky hillside and features a multi-tiered pool that cascades down towards the beach. Sun loungers and sprawling palm trees are strewn around the three-tiered infinity pool, lulling you to laze around, unhurried on island time. Swim up to the bar to cool down, or wander over to the Constance Spa to nurture your wellbeing. You can take advantage of the plunge pool, whirlpools, stream room and sauna here – and it’s well worth booking a supplementary spa treatment to use the facilities at peak times. Choose a classic therapy, inspired by the Indian Ocean, or opt for a Valmont anti-ageing treatment. There’s also a relaxation garden, a beauty salon and a nearby fully equipped gym, which offers a fitness programme of aerobics, yoga, Pilates and more.

Wander down to Petite Anse Kerlan beach to relax on the dreamy white sands. There are a variety of water sports facilities here, including a dive centre. You can swim and snorkel in the turquoise waters, and enjoy complimentary water sports such as kayaking, paddleboarding, windsurfing and pedal boating. Private water sports lessons, guided snorkelling and scuba diving are also available for an additional charge. Those visiting in season may be lucky enough to witness nesting and hatchling Hawksbill or Green turtles on the three beaches. When 8,000 Hawksbill turtles hatch each year, generally between October to February, the hotel’s turtle specialists freely educate guests about conservation efforts to protect this rare species. At other times of year, you may spot guineafowl, peacocks, rabbits and giant tortoises roaming freely. 

Elsewhere, you can play tennis on two floodlit courts or rent a mountain bike to explore the area’s breathtaking beauty. A handy complimentary golf buggy also travels around the resort so you don’t always have to walk. The Constance Kids Club will keep your little ones from 4 to 11 entertained with its imagination space that’s kitted out with a playhouse, kitchenette and tool workshop. Activities for tweens include creating pizzas and making ice creams, as well as child-friendly pampering sessions at the spa.

Dining information

There’s plenty of variety with the hotel’s four restaurants and five bars. Open for breakfast and dinner, the Legend’s buffet and show-cooking stations offer a different cuisine each night, including a weekly chocolate extravaganza. Meanwhile, The Nest sits on a small peninsula between the two Anse Kerlan beaches. You can sample authentic Creole seafood dishes here, including their signature coconut sherbet. The private deck behind the restaurant lies on stilts, overlooking the Indian Ocean, and it’s the perfect spot to celebrate special occasions.

For lunch, head to Takamaka on Petite Anse beach, where a dedicated sushi chef prepares fresh dishes with a Seychellois twist. The adjoining bar stays open into the early evening, so you can admire legendary Praslin sunsets with a drink in hand. Diva is situated above the golf club house, serving a la carte dishes for lunch and modern European cuisine in the evenings, some of which can be enjoyed as family sharing platters. Diva’s wine cellar is not to be missed and can offer private tastings or private dining experiences.

There’s also the Legend Pool bar – where you can order ice-cold drinks, sundaes and ice creams – and the Huna bar which provides evening entertainment and music. The Nest bar is a great place to savour your favourite cocktail with sweeping views across the two spectacular beaches.
