Le Méridien Fisherman's Cove

Top choice in Mahé


A reliable resort with a staggering bow-shaped lobby and 70 stylish, modern rooms – bathrooms are not separate from bedrooms. Rooms are tightly packed together but face the sea and are buffered by lush gardens. The atmosphere is more convivial than intimate. Facilities include two restaurants, a bar, a spa and a pool. One minus: the beach is disappointingly thin.
