Raffles Seychelles

Raffles sits above Anse Takamaka on the north coast of Praslin, a resort of all-villa suites with a rare combination for the Seychelles: proper luxury and a serious commitment to families. There is a free kids club for ages four and up and a creche for the little ones, and up to five children stay free. Private-pool villas mean you get quiet evenings once children are asleep. It pairs beautifully with a trip to nearby Vallee de Mai and the beaches of La Digue.
The rooms
Every room at Raffles is a private villa, and many have their own pool, which is a huge win with a napping toddler or an early bedtime. One and two-bedroom Pool Villas suit families, and up to five children thirteen and under stay free using existing bedding, which softens the cost. A creche looks after younger children while the Sugar Palm Kids' Club takes ages four and up. Cots and baby kit come on request.
How the KidProof Score works
Every hotel is rated on eight things families actually care about, then weighted by how much each one drives your choice. Room setup counts the most. The little touches break the ties.

Constance Lemuria
Lemuria is all suites and villas, and families spread out in a Junior Suite with an extra bed or, better, a two-bedroom Villa with a private pool and space for everyone. Cots are free and the resort is used to babies. Buggies ferry you around the hilly, green estate, and the three beaches include the famous Anse Georgette. The children's pool and playground sit near the kids club.

Constance Ephelia
Ephelia spreads over 120 hectares with two beaches, so there is a lot of choice for families. The 17 Family Villas have two bedrooms and a private plunge pool, ideal when a toddler needs a dark room for naps, while Junior and Senior Suites handle a family of three or four. Cots are free on request and connecting options are easy to arrange. A shuttle buggy runs around the grounds, which helps because the estate is large.

Kempinski Seychelles Resort Baie Lazare
Rooms are large and most have a balcony or terrace facing the bay. Families usually take a Garden or Sea View room with an extra bed, or connecting rooms for more space, and the resort sleeps children easily with free cots. The layout is compact and mostly step-free, which is a relief with a pushchair. A children's pool sits beside the main pool near the kids club.
