Mango Lodge

In 20+ years of travelling we have never returned to the same accommodation twice, so it says something that this was our second stay at Mango Lodge. For us this is a perfect stay; privacy in one of the wonderful cabins on stilts, amazing views across the bay, great support from Lesley and her team when you want it and everything you could want within the cabin including a great kitchen area. As others have said, we would recommend hiring a car (Lesley can help) not just to get up the hill to Mango Lodge but because Praslin deserves exploring and a car gives you so much more flexibility. Overall the perfect accommodation for an amazing trip. Thanks Lesley.

My husband and I recently stayed here for a week. I cannot sing its praises enough. We stayed in one of the bungalows on stilts with the amazing bay view. I’m not going to pretend this is 5 star luxury but having done that multiple times I can honestly say I preferred Mango lodge. You can safely sleep with the doors to the balcony wide open and fall asleep to the sound of the sea. Well equipped little kitchen and spacious private accommodation. I would definitely recommend renting a car- this was seamlessly organised by the amazing Les. Would go back in a heartbeat.

The property was amazing, and we felt confused how it was only 2 star. Firstly, the views are absolutely incredible as you can see on the photos attached. We were often waking up around 5am to see the sunrise which was really nice. The rooms are cleaned by the housekeepers every day, to a great standard. They are large rooms with so much space as you can see in the photo, we stayed in the chalet and were more than impressed with the room. They had beach towels, kitchen is fully equipped with all amenities, you can easily cook there if you wanted to. The balcony space is huge, and comes with unbelievable views. The owner Leslie is an incredible person and host, nothing is too much for her and she will go out of her way to help you and suggest things, I would suggest to anyone thinking of stopping here to reach out to her with any questions about excursions, rental cars as she will find things far cheaper than you see online, all very reputable. She helped us when we had trouble one morning and gave us a ride to the ferry terminal and refused to take cash, without her we would have missed our ferry to La Digue and we couldn’t thank her enough for this. Rental car is a must, again contact Leslie she found a car for us which was brilliant and so cheap when you’re used to European prices. Overall we loved our stay here, it’s a fabulous place to see amazing views first and last thing in the day. Close by to supermarkets and amazing takeaway spots, Leo’s food truck is a must! Should we ever return to the Seychelles we wouldn’t hesitate a second to stop here again. Thank you so much Leslie and the team!

Very happy with the accomodation, lovely host Lesly and Ashley, fantastic view, reasonable price, highly recomend it. The rooms are very clean and the plavce is surrounded by a beatiful mango garden and a beatiful birds , black parrot ,9 in total🙂

Where do we begin to thank Mango Lodge, all the friendly staff especially Les and Ash for a super wonderful holiday! We went to Praslin Seychelles with big expectations celebrating double 50th birthdays! First time ever Island visit and we are so pleased to have chosen this particular stay. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had the most pleasurable and wonderful experience and this holiday will be remembered for a very long time for sure! They even assisted me in baking my husband's favourite desert for his birthday which made it extra special! We had such a great time, marvelling most fantastic views, relaxing in a friendly and most beautiful and helpful atmosphere. We will never forget our stay at Mango Lodge. Hopefully we will be blessed to return in the near future! Thank you for all the extras Les and Ash! You made our 50th celebrations a memory for life! God bless you! We will miss our time with you! Memories for life 🙌🙌🙌 Till next time! Mimi Oppermann 😊
