Yasad Residence

I honestly cannot recommend Yasad Luxury Residence highly enough. What started as a holiday became unexpectedly stressful when my passport was stolen, but staying here turned out to be one of the best decisions we could have made. Nora, the hostess, was absolutely incredible. She went far beyond what I could ever have expected from a host. She helped me organise appointments, arrange the necessary documents and navigate what was an extremely stressful situation. She was always available, incredibly kind and genuinely cared about helping me. Her support made a very difficult situation so much easier, and I will never forget the kindness she showed me. The accommodation itself was fantastic. The location is perfect — directly across from the beach, with restaurants, shops and attractions all within a quick drive. Everything you could want is right on your doorstep, while the apartment itself provides a lovely place to relax and unwind. To make it even easier, Nora arranged transport from the jetty to the accommodation no hassle at all! But what really makes this place special is the warmth and friendliness. Nora made us feel more like a friend than a guest, and I can honestly say this was one of the friendliest and most welcoming places I have ever stayed. If you’re considering staying here, don’t hesitate — book it. The location is fantastic, the accommodation is excellent, and having a host like Nora is something truly special. Thank you so much, Nora, for everything you did for me. You went above and beyond, and I am incredibly grateful! 10/10 — I would absolutely stay here again.

Very nice, spacious, clean place and friendly, helpful people. Only thing I missed were shampoo and conditioner, also hot water one morning (later it came).

We had a wonderful family holiday at Yasad - we were a large group so booked the two three bedroom apartments. The apartments are spacious, very clean and with great air-con. It was always a pleasure coming back to a cool clean apartment after a day exploring the island. The staff are very friendly, helpful and hardworking. The canoes were a real bonus - awesome to go paddling on a calm day to see the fish below. Was wonderful to cross the road to the little quiet beach in front to watch the sun rise and set. Preferable to have a rental car to be able to get to the shops and explore. I would highly recommend Yasad.

From the moment we booked, we had excellent communication with the owner. On the day of our arrival, Ms. Nora from Yasad contacted us and suggested preparing a local dinner – it was delicious. The property itself fully met our expectations. The apartment was clean, modern, and spacious. Ms. Nora provided us with daily advice and tips for our trips. We highly recommend Yasad Luxury Residence.

The room was clean and serviced daily by friendly staff. The location is lovely and quiet with a nice beach with safe swimming directly outside. The perfect place to relax and unwind.

We (two adults and one 6y child) stayed in Yasad for three nights, apartment No. 4 – two bed rooms + living room and kitchen. The place is easy to reach from the airport with a bus stop just in front of the Residence. Although located just by the road, the road is quiet with almost no traffic. It is in walk distance from Les Rochers restaurant. The rooms are clean with daily room service. Mainly the living room is a bid overcrowded by furniture. E.g. there were three bar chairs that you cannot access as there are blocked by benches to sit on while watching TV. The bar chairs could be dismissed with no harm to use the apartment. Some other furniture could be renovated. E.g. in the kitchen there was an attempt to inbuilt the washing machine but this was not very successful. Comment to Yasad: keep things simple and easy. Car is parked safe behind the gate. Breakfast is a selection of fruits, eggs (omelettes), toasts, jam, cheese. Although some criticism above, I rate the Yasad as excellent since after all you have the apartment just to oversleep and stay all the days out in nature and beaches.

The position is perfect because just on the beach in the quietest part of the island. Fantastic sunset view! Assuming you have a car, you can go all around visiting Praslin amenities. Nora, is a fantastic host: beyond all the suggestions she gave, she organised even a super premium dinner for the seven of us. On top of it, given my wife forgot some clothes when we left, she sent the bag to La Digue before we came back to Mahe. That was an AMAZING service you cannot always expect apart from perfection in hotel management!

Excellent base The owner is super service oriented and will fix everything for you. You will need a car, but it is a good base and the beach is good. There is no pool, but you do not need it, the beach is excellent. Very big family apartment with 3 bathrooms.
