Hotel Maison des Palmes - Praslin
For the tourist seeking isolation from the hectic, urban world, the Hotel Maison des Palmes is found on Praslin, the Seychelle's second largest island, home of the Coco de Mer palm. There is very little traffic and no towns, so the pace of life is slow and lazy. Granite boulders peek out of the turquoise water, affording brilliant opportunities for snorkelling.
On the beach at the western end of Gran Anse lies the Hotel Maison des Palmes, offering thatched-roof, bungalow-style accomodations. There is a charming restaurant that offers a grill on Wednesday and a Creole buffet on Saturday, both with live music. The hotel has a swimming pool, tennis courts and a pool table and offers windsurfing, canoe and boat excursions.
Prices include: Accommodations, transfers and meals except for lunch and dinner for the short periods the group is in Manaus.
Group size: Max of 14 participants; minimum of 8
Accommodations: Nights in Manuas are spent in a modest family run hotel with air-conditioning. Nights in the forest are spent in large tents with room enough to stand up and big windows with fine mesh screens.

La Digue Island Lodge - La Digue
The epitome of island paradise, La Digue Island provided the lush, verdant backdrop for the motion picture, Crusoe. This island, unspoilt due to controlled tourism, is principally granite, surrounded by white sand, green palms and crystal-blue sea. It is considered the most picturesque in the Seychelles.
The La Digue Island Lodge, the largest hotel on the island, is the hub where everyone congregates after a day of snorkelling, diving and sunbathing. They offer a diving center, tours of La Digue and its neighboring islands, and day trips to Felicite for a barbeque and some excellent snorkeling. Accomodations range from beach front suites to A-frame cottages, all with air-conditioning. Guests enjoy the small beach setting, the pool and its bar, and the good menu offered at the lodge's restaurant.
