Habitation, Cerf Island, Seychelles:Situated on one of the Marine National Park islands surrounding Mahe, this charming hotel for max. 24 guests was originally designed as a plantation house. It's only 5 kms by boat to Victoria, but it seems to be a world away. The excellent location makes L'Habitation more than just an interesting alternative to staying on Mahe (not recommended during SE winds period, though).Opened in 2001, L'Habitation Cerf has recently been chosen by the The Sunday Time Travel Magazine of being the 1st of the 6 best hotels in the Indian Ocean and considered a "paradise for less than £100 per night" and "as cheap as chic". Details about this here. The relatively small (1,7 x 0,9 km) island of Cerf offers many beautiful bays and cays, full of tropical vegetation. Only 40 people inhabit the island, there is no road and only 2 hotels. The 10 spacious beachfront rooms of L'Habitation Cerf, all with terrace overlooking the sea and the Marine Park, are equipped with air-conditioning, IDD telephone, hair drier, mini-bar, TV, and en-suite bathroom. Attractions include a swimming pool, bar and games room as well as diving and snorkelling facilities for a visit to the colourful and varied marine life in the coral reefs that surround this charming island. The plantation-style restaurant offers a range of delicious creole cuisine that includes local fish, seafood, meat and fruit as well as first-rate international cuisine. At lunchtimes, a new thatched beach kiosk serves grilled fresh fish. Other facilities include a bar, a swimming pool, a games room and water sports including snorkelling, pedalo and canoeing. Paid-for activities include diving, big game fishing, long-line fishing and full day boat excursion with picnic.
