Located on the secluded private Anse Petit Cour Bay, on the northwestern side of Praslin, La Reserve is set in the middle of a large tropical garden. There are 14 bungalows and three colonial style villas with four rooms each. All the rooms are spacious, well furnished and tastefully decorated, with king size four poster beds, large well-equipped bathrooms, tea and coffee making facilities and well-stocked mini bars. Most rooms at La Reserve have a sea view and either terraces or verandas. The main bar leads to the jetty restaurant, overlooking the sea, which serves Creole, European and Chinese cuisine. Although La Reserve represents the days gone by, the hotel has all the modern facilities needed.
