Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Seychelles

Loved the accommodation facilities at the resort. We stayed in the signature suit. Incredible facility. The private pool was amazing and the service was excellent.

It is not possible to give an objective review of this hotel due to the completely unbelievable surprise upgrade to the Presidential Suite on arrival. We had booked a Beachfront Villa and were really looking forward to that, but instead we got the Presidential Suite with 500m+ of private beach, private pool, lobby, entertainment house and two massive appartements. Truly a great start to our honeymoon! A couple of things which would have been less than perfect if we had got what we actually paid for would have been the cost of meals and excursions and activities. The food is very good, but overpriced. The buffet in the main restaurant with a single drink is around £60 per person, and the Teppanyaki Restaurant is more than double that. Excursions are also very expensive. Having said that we had a lovely relaxing time and it was just fantastic. The staff are very professional and helpful, and they have clearly got a lot of training in how to work with guests on a truly 5 star resort.

My husband and I were here for the start of our honeymoon in July 2024 and had a wonderful stay. We splurged and booked a villa with a private pool, which was fantastic. The beach was empty, which made it feel even more exclusive. One of the days we had massages at the spa, which I would highly recommend. The spa area is really nicely done and a little beach out front with those famous Seychelles rocks :) I know a lot of people complain about the price of food and drinks at these types of island resorts but it was about as expected, no big surprises there. The only downside was the price of the ferry to get you to the island. It was very expensive and with very few departures, could be a bit frustrating if your flights or ferries don’t match up. Staff was all phenomenal and great to have use of the bikes assigned to your villa. Would recommend!

This place is very nice but also equally expensive. We had half board (breakfast and dinner) because I thought we wouldn't need to spend a lot on lunch and would want to travel out and about. Forget it - don't do anything other than full board. The island has no where else for you to eat and getting off the island is a monumental and expensive task. We ended up spending a $100 a day on lunch. The only exception would be if you planned on eating a late breakfast and an early dinner everyday. Then you could skip lunch. The food by the way is really great. There is a wide variety - plenty of it - and all prepared well. You do have to make 'reservations' at one of the hotels restaurants which can be a little frustrating (after all you are on vacation) but once you get past that its fun. We ate at all the restaurants and didn't have one bad experience. In terms of 'things to do' on the island. You can definitely stay busy for a week. We scuba divided and that kept us busy. As an aside the nearby waters while they are pleasant to be in and very clear - there isn't a lot of large fish to see. The onside dive shop is spotting in terms of service - some really good people but mostly in experience young people who act like you're intruding on their party. The beaches here are very stunning! You could spend all your time on the beach and be very happy!!! It is postcard perfect. We stayed at a beach villa with a private pool - I can't recommend that enough. Wonderful room!

-Excellent hotel in a dream location -Had a pool beach villa, absolutely amazing -Good maintenance, pool chemistry well tuned, high quality bed, amazing bathroom, large -BUT: Service is a tad slow and they forgot that we are on honeymoon

Location, private pool with stunning view of the ocean, friendliness of staff, food in the restaurants. I loved the elaborate towel creations by Mubarak

Big nice room with a private pool. Great view. Excellent staff.

A lovely hotel for adults only! Large villas in a jungle full of special vegetation, very good and varied breakfast (vegetarian food) Because of a personal matter and a problem with the room we received, they upgraded us to a larger room with a private pool and we were very satisfied, the staff was helpful and happy to help with everything! In addition, the hotel provides a shuttle once a day to and from Beau Vallon Beach. Many thanks to the lovely chef Avisha who took care of us personally. The beach is beautiful and accessible, full of beautiful fish, we loved the seating areas in front of the beach Overall, a perfect hotel and we left with a taste for more!

Exceptional resort with every possible facility available. We came there for our anniversary and were upgraded to the signature pool villa. I don't think we have ever stayed in a more grandeur place. It was simply stunning - the pool, the jacuzzi, the ocean view. Every detail is really thought through.

The property is so stunning. It’s beautifully located, with the best view of nature and ocean with rocks. Our room was very spacious with an amazing view from the room with pool. Great amenities with a great serene atmosphere. Everything was perfect and exceeded our expectation. We were given a complimentary upgrade which was an icing on the cake. It was an unforgettable experience. Everything was so lovely, right from the checkin. Patrick was amazing, very welcoming and helpful. Susantha was very lively and gave us a detailed mini tour of the place. All the staff were courteous, professional and friendly. The food was great and the ocean views from restaurants was beautiful. Overall, top notch service.

Just about everything about Le Duc de Praslin is exceptional. Stayed at the Villa 360 - a combination of opulence and elegance in resort stays! A magnificent 4 bedroom villa with a private pool, jacuzzi, a private gym and a car provided during the stay by the hotel. The villa is a 4 minute drive from the main property up the hill, but the car really helps. The Ocean bar was just gorgeous with unmatched views of the sea. A wonderful DJ night the day before we left the resort made it an awesome experience. We booked a half board through Booking.com and it was worth it, delicious offerings all along. The wonderful staff led by manager Hilda and her excellent team, Virginie at reservations, the restaurant staff especially Ravindra, Suganthan at the Villa 360 were fantastic. We were treated so well, this will be a memorable stay for our family. And Praslin, a wonderful island with its glorious beaches and beauty will always be a top place to go back to and without doubt, stay will need to be at Le Duc

The hotel was perfect. We took the Villa 4 bedrooms. It was huge, we are family of four, but it definitely is suitable for two families with separated areas. In the fridge they give you beverages in payment which is very convenient. The villa pool is very big and the view to the ocean is awesome. Breakfast and dinner was very good for us with a lot of options. Please note that the villa is not in the hotel area (5 minutes by car) and you will receive from the hotel a car for free of charge – you can use the car to travel the island. The hotel has a beach, two swimming pools and a bar near the beach. Robert the owner is very kind and take care that you are enjoying your stay, as well as the manger V-cash. We enjoy the hotel very much and recommend it.

Our stay here exceeded our expectations and we had the most amazing stay out of all our accomodations in Seychelles. The room was very comfortable and clean, we were in the seaside block, had views to beautiful palm trees, the sea and to the pool. Impecable cleaning service was provided every day. The staff was very nice and helpful, everybody here is a professional and are great at doing their jobs. The beach was amazing, this is a very long beach with super fine and incredibly white sand and beautiful water. We were there in stingray season in June so we had to be careful when entering/exiting the water but luckily had no problems. The area is very well mantained, we had no bug issues. They have a nice fitness room with good machines and a nice spa area. They have a bar at the beach with great design. But the most amazing thing for us though was the food at this hotel. They have such an amazing selection for both the breakfast and dinner buffets, we were excited every day to go to their restaurant. Such creative, healthy and delicious dishes to chose from! Congratulations to the team taking care of this! We went to other fancy hotel restaurants in Seychelles too but none reached Le Duc's level! We missed Le Duc's buffet menu all the time!

We stayed at the Le Duc de Praslin hotel for 3 nights at the end of a two-week trip in Seychelles and Mauritius. The hotel is exceptional. The family room is very spacious and can easily accommodate a couple and up to four children with comfort and privacy for the parents. The hotel is located adjacent to Cote D'Or beach, which is one of the most beautiful and longest beaches in Seychelles; we really enjoyed running and strolling on the beach. It must be said in all honesty that the food at Le Duc is of an exceptionally high standard. The chef uses local ingredients and gives them a sophisticated twist that is delightful to the palate. The dinners were most impressive and inviting. We were very impressed with the dining at the hotel. The hotel includes a pleasant, compact pool with a jacuzzi and a great gym for those who like to stay in shape on vacation. The staff is very kind and service-oriented, and we had a very pleasant stay. We warmly and wholeheartedly recommend Le Duc de Praslin and will definitely return here in the future.

We stayed there between 21 to 28 Mar 2024. The facilities are amazing – the room was spacious and clean with beautiful lighting, great AC, very comfortable furniture. The patio in front of the room had very comfortable garden furniture and we had a very nice swimming pool right in front of it. The restaurant is in the open, surrounded by a beautiful garden! The food was excellent – very delicious, with a lot of choice and very fresh! They accommodated the gluten free diet of my wife with various options and spacial gluten free plate for her. The location is superb – the beach is perfect and Cafe Des Arts (the beach restaurant/club) is super, it is also close to local shops. The garden is amazing and full of more and more hidden places that you discover through your stay there and I'm sure that we missed to see all of them. The staff were very friendly and supported us with booking trips and advising. Overall, it is an amazing place and we plan to return if we can! We would highly recommend the Le Duc de Praslin hotel!

We stayed in a beautiful, spacious villa with a private pool and an amazing ocean view, it was clean and equipped, staff were always friendly and helpful.

We have been upgraded to Vila and that was very nice, we had pool and everything was new, the only thing it is a little bit far from the sea and no direct road.

Beautiful location on a lovely little, picturesque beach with some fairly good snorkelling. I arrived early at the resort due to my flight and the staff kindly checked me in and upgraded my room. Room was great…super clean and spacious. Fridge, hairdryer etc provided. A nice quiet atmosphere and a great place to relax.Breakfast was decent ..fresh fruit, eggs, pancakes, decent coffee etc. Possibly breakfast could be varied a bit more, particularly for guests who stay longer as it tended to be the same everyday. Restaurant offered a good lunch and dinner menu. Drinks in the restaurant were expensive including drinking water. ..come prepared! A taxi from the airport to the hotel cost 60 euros (arranged by hotel). If you want to explore the island you will need a car as there is no public transport going near the hotel. If you are happy to swim, snorkel and relax then it is ideal. WiFi was ok but it wasn’t always reliable.

The hotel is at this amazing location, right on the beach. Getting there from the main road if you don't have a car is a "sightseeing walk" :-) but don't do it with the luggage. We didn't have a car so the lady from reception gave us a lift to the main road (which was greatly appreciated) so that we could take a bus to our next adventure. Since we had a late flight we were also able to leave our luggage at the hotel and when we came back from the tour in the evening, we could take a shower and get ready. The room was nice and spacious with a little fridge...but it is on the beach so bring earplugs if you have problems sleeping. Breakfast was AMAZING, especially those little bread buns. The restaurant and the reception staff are super friendly. and always ready to help.

Perfect location right on the beautiful sandy beach. We had standard room facing the restaurant and the sea. From the room to the sea less than a minute walking distance. Great snorkelling, especially on the left-hand side of the bay. There is plenty of space on the beach in the shadow in the morning. Although in the afternoon the sun comes down on the west and the shadow is very limited. The room was very quiet. The staff was very friendly and proactive. For late check-out they gave us permission to use a single room at no extra fee. Kayak and sup can be used for free. From the hotel about 20 min walk to Petite Anse/Four Season hotel. The food at the hotel restaurant and at the cafe on the beach was very good quality and at decent price.

First and most: the service. We were greeted by a pleasant team who provided a lot of useful information. The room is lovely, facilities were in good shape, we were able to cook for ourselves . Excellent bathroom, best we have seen is similar properties. The garden and porch were also very pleasant, clean and well maintained and we had a charming little personal pool!!!

There is nothing to complain :) probably we would stay here again. Communication with the Staff and Owner was perfect from the arrival until checkout. Gihan Fernando was great. He was always available withe help and if we needed something, a short WhatsApp Message was enough so he organised everything we needed. Nicole the owner was a peach, always strives to improve the accommodation. One Mention: I would recommend a car if you stay here. We stayed in the little mention and the pool is what it is - you can see it in the pictures clearly and we knew the size isn't very big. No complaints at all

Excellent rooms, a bed room, kitchen, and an additional bed with study room, and a balcony that extends as a porch with well furnished seating and dining table for food, facing the sea (and beach). We were at the first floor (Seasplash). Great service, and approachable, friendly staff. Loved the food, fish, creole curry, rice and salad for dinner and a lavish European breakfast buffet, delivered impeccably on time, in the room. Well stocked drinking water, complimentary juices on arrival, a complete kitchen with all necessary utensils and cutlery, wide beds and sofas, and well spaced bathroom. Good parking space for car, and bus stop opposite. Overall, loved the stay, view, time spent on the balcony overlooking waters and regular sound of the sea breeze.

We had an amazing stay at this place as part of our honeymoon, we arrived late when all the supermarkets were closed and couldn’t have dinner so the owner kindly cooked us delicious dinner and she also served us dessert afterwards. Nicole is so kind and hospitable she takes the extra mile to ensure her guests’ comfort and needs. The place comes with all facilities needed especially the kitchen with everything that enables you to cook your own food. The beach is also walking distance, geographically it’s an amazing location. Also given that the location is at a tropical island you might run into insects Breakfast and dinner are available upon request but they have separate extra charges.

It was perfect, the 4 poster bed was lovely and comfy, the place was set out really well, they left some provisions (water daily, salt and pepper, oils, tea and coffee in contrast our previous property provided hardly anything), the gardens were well kept and the jacuzzi was great. And the bathroom was nice, I’ve never been to a place with a double shower. Outside, it was next to a lovely quiet beach (with boulders), the buses stopped outside and the supermarket was 5 minutes away and well stocked. Lia was excellent, she checked on us every day and was just such a lovely polite lady, her goal was to make our stay the best and she did.

We liked the friendly staff and manager, super clean villa and location including private pool area.

Our bungalow had a small private pool which was excellent! And the property was literally two steps from the beach. Staff was very helpful, including with arranging day trips and car hires as well as lending us a BBQ. Bungalow was spacious, clean and close ro restaurants and shops.

This has got to be the cleanest accommodation we have ever stayed at. Everything was clean! It was like it was just opened yesterday. They have a salt water pool and direct access to the beach. We did not get bit by sand flies walking on the beach. Staff were helpful and very friendly. All appliances worked. They do not have an oven but do have a stovetop, microwave, electric hot kettle, refrigerator with ice trays. 220 volt. The AC is only in the bedroom. That worked out fine for us as we knew it before we booked. There is a bedroom, bathroom and a combined kitchen and living room. Tv, phone and internet. Only one day was there a problem with the internet but there was a thunderstorm. It only did not work for a few minuted. The rest of the week it worked great and was fast.

Location: next to quiet and shallow beach. Perfect for families with small children and nice and calm water, not much to see if you like snorkeling. The town is on walking distance with shops and restaurants. Also Directly next to a bus stop which gets you most places on the island for 12 scr per person. Anse Lazio is not far and highly recommended for a visit. Facilities: pool is there for common use by about 10 villa's. Usually a couple of people using it. At the last day we could use a day room to shower after we checked out. Service: excellent! Annia helps with everything and really makes you feel at ease. The daily cleaning is really thorough. Both the grounds and the villa are cleaned daily. Room: the villa I should say. It has everything you need, air conditioning, fans and a full kitchen.

We loved every minute of our 6 night stay. Annia is a wonderful Friendly and welcoming host. Anything you need or want to know just ask and she'll be more than happy to help and always with a smile.The Island of Praslin is stunning and footprints is an excellent accommodation with a small pool, beach access and a wonderful array of flora and fauna in its grounds.Our accommodation consisted of an open plan Kitchen and living room, a large bedroom with a king bed and on suite shower room. It had everything we needed for our stay and was cleaned daily. The beach is amazing and was uncrowded. My wife and I really enjoyed swimming in the beautiful warm sea. We also enjoyed kayaking and Kayaks are complimentary at footprints. We would highly recommend this property for your stay on Praslin.

Nice apartment with private pool, wide room and kitchen. There is the prettiest Intendance beach in 10 minutes. So it is a nice place both for hotel only rest and beach rest.

Amazing private villa with private pool it’s just perfect for couples. there is a nice view from the terrace too. I would definitely come back.

Everything was perfect - the room, the private pool, the bedding. Genial. The staff, especially Emma, were very accommodating, smiling and professional. Highly recommend.

We had a very relaxing stay at Moulin Kann Villas. The rooms are very clean and equipped with a private pool, the beach is close by walking distance and the location is quiet with a 30 min drive to the center.

Really lovely little villa with it's own plunge pool, just a short walk to the beach. Great start to our holiday in the Seychelles and just down the road from the rum factory. You will need a car if you want to explore more of Mahe as this is the quiet end of the island

My husband and I stayed at Mango House for 3 nights for the first part of our stay in the Seychelles. I cannot begin to explain how amazing our experience was! From the moment you arrive at reception (greeted with an amazing lemongrass drink and a cold towel), to our amazing room with a gorgeous view, there were so many highlights. There was a DJ at the infinity pool on the Saturday which was so fun. All the facilities were really clean and all pools are gorgeous. We have to give a BIG shout out to Michael who was absolutely brilliant, coming over to chat to us for each of our meals (even remembering us as The Smiths), the personal service just felt SO special. Muse in particular was so good, we ate here 2 nights and you have breakfast there each morning which is super tasty and a bonus with the bottomless Mimosas! We really didn't want to leave. We went on to Silhouette Island after our stay here for 4 nights to stay at another Hilton but honestly we wanted to come back to Mango House! Just fab all round and a perfect honeymoon spot. Thank you for a brilliant stay, we really hope to return again in the future!

We visited the Mango House after being in Kenya on safari for over a week. We wanted to visit Seychelles for a few days of relaxation before heading home. We definitely made the right choice by choosing the Mango House. The staff couldn’t have been more attentive and accommodating. Thomas, Samis and Lisa kept me entertained at the beach pool bar while my wife was soaking up the sun. Our room was absolutely amazing the biggest bed that I have ever seen. We did venture out and did some excursions, but next time we will definitely spend more time in the beautiful room. We took advantage of the pools, snorkeling and all that the resort had to offer. We will definitely return in the next year or two and will stay longer than four nights this time. It was the perfect ending to a dream vacation.

10/10 for our Honeymoon , Service is Top Notch. We stayed here for our honeymoon. The room was absolutely gorgeous along with the beautiful views of the ocean. We stayed in the bay room and had our own pool. The public pools are beautiful as well. The customer service was the best part of the hotel. We were treated like royalty from the moment we stepped on the property. To name a few people who went above and beyond were Thomas (so welcoming, informative, hardworking, and professional ), Liza (very personable, helpful, and kind), Padre (very charismatic, funny, and caring, Anna (hardworking, wise, and sweet) and Stephanette(professional, great at attention to details, and warm)

Mango House Seychelles, LXR Hotels & Resorts, provided an enchanting retreat in the south of Mahe island. The beautiful boutique hotel boasts spacious rooms and a helpful staff. The main pool offers breathtaking views for adults, while a smaller pool caters to children. The hotel's beach, though small, is accessible within a short walk. Breakfast was served with delicious dishes instead of a buffet, and the dining options at MOUTYA and Azido were exceptional. While the hotel is situated on the south side of Mahe, requiring transportation for exploring the north, the staff can arrange taxis or car rentals. Overall, Mango House Seychelles exceeded expectations, making it an ideal choice for a romantic getaway.

The view from the main house is absolutely stunning , with the bay, the beach and the pool just in front of your eyes. The staff is genuinely very kind and helpful. The food was delicious The layout of the property with different little pools.

The room was comfortable. It could do with a degree of modernisation. Service was good. Our private pool was brilliant.

We stayed in the Ocean View room with a private pool. We had no reason to leave our room except to eat. The beach and hotel pool isn't overly great. I probably would not stay at this hotel if I didn't have a private pool, though. If you want good beach and pool on the resort, this may not be your place.

I went with my mom and sister.. The property was good. Alot of trees and flowers. Excellent atmosphere.. No insects.. Good welcoming and reception.. Very froendly staff.. One of the best.. Fast service.. Everything we needed was available, The room was big and the private pool was amazing against the ocean.. Very clean beds and bathroom.. The food is excellent .. Breakfast team is really amazing and friendly especially Nadia.. The only downside was that the wifi wasnit working for a night and they made it up to us by complementary fruits and it was fixed next day

Beautiful villa, well maintained, private pool, sitting area, large bathroom. All well kept. Staff was pleasant and courteous. Only downside was room service, although prompt delivered cold dinner. No heater carts to kept meals warm until serving. Don't order a room service dinner. Great location for the whole property. Very helpful with service requests, restaurant bookings and local travel. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place. A few comments just to prepare people that may visit: * The WiFi can be inconsistent, ok in the common areas but it was really really bad at our villa (307/Private Pool Villa). * The food at the Hilltop restaurant is really expensive (buffet dinner for 2 would start at €100-ish. The prices at the Ocean Bar are a little better. * There is a great tour option offered by the hotel jointly with a local tour operator. You take a boat from Mahe to Praslin (see the coco de mer trees and seeds and the beautiful Anse Lazio beach) + another stop in La Digue for lunch, the giant turtles park and more beaches. It was being sold at €180 at the hotel, we couldn't find any better option beforehand and we were really glad we did the tour.

Great place, cooler in the mountains, private pool and view are excellent. Also good firm beds. Nice host, we visited tortoises in the main building and even had a tour of the garden. Highly recommended!

Our stay at The Olive Tree can only be described as marvellous. The apartment is beautiful and spacious, the neatly kept garden is a pleasure to spend time in and the pool is small, but extremely clean and very pleasurable for a quick cool-down. Still, the real highlight are the people who make all of this happen. Marise and Christophe are extremely friendly and courteous people. They really went the extra mile with a delicious dinner on our first day alone, but also, they provided fresh fruit from the garden (how amazing is this!) and breakfast ingredients for our first morning. They were incredibly helpful with advice, contacts and regular check-ins to make sure that our stay went as smoothly as possible. Their staff took exceptional care of house, garden and pool - we couldn't have asked for more.

The hosts, Marise and Christoph, were very helpful, kind, friendly, approachable, and very organised.The apartment was incredibly massive, spacious, and very clean. The apartment has everything you will need; from everything you could possibly want in a kitchen to the bedroom. As a lady that has a religious skin care regime that includes about 8 steps, I was happy to find that there was a chair right infront of the mirror in the bedroom. It made it so convient to sit than stand in the bathroom for several minutes/ an hour. Marise was also kind to let me use the pool allocated for the villa, for the entire duration of my stay, to improve my swimming. I highly recommend the Olive Tree to anyone coming to Seychelles and intend to stay in Mahe Island.

We had a great and memorable stay in Olive Tree Villa. Very clean and comfortable villa. You can find everything you need in the villa. Nice and clean pool. Very beautiful views of mountains and the sea. Air con in the rooms helps you have a good sleep. Good location with easy access to other places both with bus or taxi. The hosts Marise and Chistophe are wonderful. so kind and helpful. They help you all the time to manage your time and help you to arrange the tours or whatever you want. They are so flexible in the time of your arrival and departure into the villa and help the guests as much as they can. I highly recommend you to choose this place.

We are happy that we chose Olive tree for our stay in Seychelles. Great view from the terrace. The height of the building's location was an additional tourist attraction. The spacious interior of the apartment - Nice house, spacious rooms. Kitchenette - fully occupied, coffee machine, drinking water. It has a very nice pool, trampoline, and the garden is beautiful with little rabbits, tortoise as well. Marise, thank you so much for your warmest hospitality and care! Everything was just dazzling. Christopher was a real help in taking us on a tour to the mountains and beaches and became one of our closest friends. We will surely recommend our pals to stay when they land in Seychelles, and of course, we will visit again. Thank you.

It was a last minute booking, the pictures do not compare to seeing the villa in real time. Beautiful furniture with the finest details, scenic views and the option to pay for in-house dining. Lots of greenery surrounding the area, but the view of the sea and the pools provided the perfect escape from the city centre and town. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The host was accommodating. The amenities provided were to the best, and we had the villa to ourselves. You hardly bump into other residents, there's enough privacy.

Breakfast was good and well served as per our demand with fresh fruit juice.

Calm, nice, clean for little journey with very nice breakfast

It's located facing a small bay and on high ground, giving a very beautiful view of the sea and parts of the island. Bus stops are close by on the main road.

The View, The beauty of the house, The host was very kind, the staff were so nice and friendly. The rooms are massive with air-con

The facilities are excellent. Kitchen and garden/pool has everything you need. Water machine (no need to carry bottles from store) normal coffee maker + several capsule machines (just everything you could possibly need). There are pool toys if you have kids with you. And a wonderful daybed on the terrace where is was lovely to read and take naps. Owners of the house where awesome. Very helpful and friendly. They live in the same building but totally separate so they won't bother you if you don't want them to, but are right there is you have any questions or needs. They picked fresh fruits from their garden for us everyday. And opened coconut for us as we did not dare to try it our selves :D Overall just perfect. Wish I was still there:)

We had the most amazing stay with Barry & Sarah. We found a real gem. What a treat our stay was. Everything was perfect. Beautiful surroundings. We stayed in one of the apartments. Very well equipped. Gardens & pool are lovely. Outdoor kitchen facilities amazing. We barbecued and ate outside most days in the lovely outdoor area. Local village is only a few minutes down the road on foot and the breathtaking Anse Royal beach is a minute walk. We enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor showering too. We were totally spoiled. Barry and Sarah are super hosts, very easy going, informative, generous and both have a great sense of humour. Had the pleasure of them both joining us for lunch one of the days. We enjoyed fresh fruit from their garden most days, compliments of Gandolf the very nice gardener. Great bus service from this location too, important if you don’t hire a car. We look forward to a return visit soon. Our stay was extremely relaxing and enjoyable. Barry and Sarah made us feel most welcome and couldn’t have done any more for us. Highly recommend a stay at Royal Bay. We were sad to leave. A massive thank you to Barry & Sarah for looking after us so well.

Beautiful cute apartment with absolutely everything you need to have a comfortable stay. Coffee tea and some milk were there upon arrival. The apartment is by the side of the villa and you also have use of the villa pool area and can enjoy the tropical garden and tree house. A lovely quiet atmosphere for people who want to relax. Owner is super helpful and gave suggestions of places to visit. I particularly chose this place as it in on the bus route so there is no need for a car. I was able to visit Victoria, the Botanical garden and the rum factory by catching the local bus. It is walking distance to a number of shops, a couple of take aways, a bank, money exchange and restaurants. The lovely beach is about a 3 minute walk away and was good for swimming throughout the whole day. Just one thing to keep in mind…..the apartment has 2 or 3 steps in it and the walk to the beach/ main road/shops etc is up/down a short but very steep hill. If you are physically active then there is no problem.

The place is perfect , a place to dream without any open wishes. The children liked the 3 turtles very much. The swimmimg pool and the Jacuzzi are wonderful. Everything in the houses perfect, very clean, big rooms , good air conditions, super equipped house and especially the kitchen ! Barry ans Sarah , you are great hosts ! We will come back one day and can recommend this perfect place . We should have stayed another week, too short a stay . We are leaving very thankful. See you again.

The owners are very friendly and very helpful. The house is very spacious. It was very clean. The kitchen was fully equipped with all the appliances and equipment one could possibly need. Kids loved the pool and the tortoises. This house is great for families with children.

Uns hat es dermaßen gut gefallen, dass wir überlegen einen zweiwöchigen Urlaub dort zu verbringen. Die Appartments sind recht luxuriös und großzügig. Auf dem Balkon kann man fast ne große Feier veranstalten. Gasgrill ist auch da. Blick vom Balkon paradisisch. Jeder Kunde hat zum Zimmer einen Caddy. Somit sind die Entfernungen auf der Insel, zu den vier Privatstränden, drei Pools, Supermarkt und Restaurants ein Katzensprung. Ausstattung der Zimmer hochwertig und top gepflegt. Personal sehr zuvorkommend, freundlich und höfflich. Selbst wenn wir gesucht hätten, da gabs einfach mal nichts zu meckern. So macht Urlaub Spass.

Curved TV, Netflix, near the reception and our own Club Car. Beautiful beaches and fantastic restaurants nearby and shopping possible very near. House is with beach access directly. We had a maison with a ground and first floor - towels for the beach are included. There is also a Nespresso machine! Outdoor shower was very terrific!

Great place with all comforts and accessibilities!

The place is just amazing, the hotel.itself is old and need renovation, but it is clean and we had private whirlpool which was also great experience to watch night sky out of it.We asked for latest check out , was not possible to stay in our room, but we could stay in the hotel and use its equipment including pool and shower. We liked the pool as well.

Really nice place, calm, very good breakfast, swimming pool. Everything was great. Kind stuff.

Honestly right before arrival I almost canceled because of bad reviews online… glad I didn’t because the place was fantastic. It’s definitely on the best beach in Mahe as it’s not just pretty, but also protected from the wind. They let us check in at midnight which other properties declined (which was odd because our flight was scheduled at night) and the room was giant, spotless clean… the view from the room was overlooking the beach and ocean. Kids loved the pool and turtles at the property. Wifi worked well. Zero issues :)

Absolutely wonderful place at the south part of Mahe, really magnificent atmosphere-our room in colonial style, the view from the terrace on the rocks and cosy garden on the left and the ocean on the right, the friendly personnel, the swimming pool on the rock where you can admire the perspective horizont of the ocean, breathtaking sunsets! And my best love was the turtles - they are cute and communicative, touchable and admirable. I would definitely come here once again! My best recommendation for staying at Mahe!

Very good location, directly on the coast at a very nice beach. There are huge turtles, you can touch and feed them. Food is tasty in the restaurant. (tuna steak, octopus salad we liked very much) The panorama from the restaurant is really cool, you get ocean breeze and you can place your feet in the sand. The swiing pool is small but has a nice view on the beach. The junior suite has an own small jacuzzi.

Very friendly staff, spotless and spacious room (honeymoon suite) and stunning location. Great pool with a view out to sea and then a stunning beach just a few steps down from the hotel. We really loved the fact the hotel was Diguoise owned. Beautiful and easy cycle from the CatCoCo port.

Location above a beautiful small beach is excellent. Staff is attentive, helpful and polite. Rental bikes are adequate. Restaurant overlooking the pool and ocean is good. Quiet location on La Digue.

amazing location, the was nice and clean, it’s not super modern do dont expect anything like that! It is a very nice authentic seychelles hotel. The staff was amazing!!! Elizabeth, Natalie and Rivo were the most welcoming and nice people around. they are professional at there jobs , working at least 6 days a week and who knows how many hours a day, they were still smiling, always had something nice to say to us and they were amazing with our 8months old baby sometimes they even came and hold him while we were having dinner :) Thank you!!!

great location, close to the beach. great view from the room over the ocean (we even spotted a few dolphins). overall it’s a nice quiet place, not crowded by tourists. the staff is extremely friendly and supportive. upon request a vegetarian option was always provided for dinner. Bikes could be rented (in an earlier review I saw that some people criticized the condition of the bikes, the bikes of course aren’t the newest best mountain bike, but of a good quality to explore the island).

Considering the poor rating on booking (7.7), the hotel left a very good impression. The room is clean, spacious. You could see the ocean while lying in bed. I liked breakfast and dinner, large portions, tasty food. Helpful staff, kindly greeted at the reception, good service in the restaurant as well. Very cheerful and helpful waiter at breakfast, Rivo. But most importantly, amazing location and view. I rate the stay 10 considering that it is 3 stars and really very unfairly underestimated.

Mattres was sooo comfortable. Good breakfast (same everyday, but good). Kitchen well equipped. Everything very clean. 5 min walk to a beautiful Severe or "sunset" beach, quite a walking distance to the grosery store. About 15 minutes walk from the ferry terminal. There are bikes to rent.Most travelers explore the island by bike. We don't ride a bike, so we asked Mr Fred for alternative. He offered a day trip by electric buggy car. It was worth the price. He took us on a whole day trip all around the island. If you are not a biker, this is a great way to explore the island. Highly recommend. You can arrange with Mr Fred as well transportation to and from the ferry port. Mr Fred is a great man, kind, friendly, informative with a wonderful sense of humor. His assistant Kenny is wonderful too. Thank you both for a memorable stay!!

It gives me great pleasure to write very good opinions when I have the opportunity! Island Bungalow was the perfect choice for us! We took Villa Kara and also Francipagne the three bedroom chalet for our group of 5 adults. Villa Kara is perfect for a couple of 2 people and Francipagne with its 3 bedrooms was perfect for the rest of the group. Francipagne is also very suitable for a family with two children because it offers a large bedroom on the ground floor with its own bathroom and two bedrooms with a shared bathroom upstairs. On the ground floor there is also an open space with kitchen facilities and a large table where you can eat. All rooms have AC and the appropriate equipment for high comfort The staff (Rocky) very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast, served outside on the terrace, was good and filling.

Breakfast was excellent: tasty and versatile (each day there were toasts, pancakes, strawberry jam, an assortment of fruit - banana, papaya, orange - as well as omelette/scrambled eggs/fried eggs and tea/coffee to choose from). The staff is very nice, polite and helpful (e.g. when my trousers got dirty with bike grease, the receptionist had them washed for me, returning spotless and ironed or a waiter had a breakfast prepared for me in five minutes when one morning I was in a rush). The localization is very good, close to the beach Anse Severe, which is a perfect spot for watching sunsets, snorkelling or having a snack or drink at one of the beach bars. The bungalow was spacious and well-furnished with air-conditioning in the bedroom. The acommodation has a bike rental service at an acceptable price of 150 SCR per day per person.

The location of Island bungalow is perfect- just about 8-10 minutes walk from the ferry port. And what made our experience even more enjoyable were the hosts, Rocky and Uli; they were polite, friendly, super helpful, and just simply perfect. There is a rabbit cottage, and I had the chance to see a 4-year-old kit (adorable kit). Room is also spacious and had everything we needed. The bungalow has its own bicycles, which you get for the entire day for 150 rupees, so you don't have to get one from the guys around La digue with strict/tight time limit to bring the bicycles back. A simple and decent breakfast is also included to start your day right. I will definitely book Island bungalow again when I visit La digue and highly recommend to all.

everything is superlative. we were accommodated in a villa with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, air conditioning in each bedroom, cleanliness, kitchen equipped with everything you need, terrace, tastefully decoration furniture, breakfast included and very tasty, those who maintain the accommodation unit with a smile on their faces, eager to help you, bicycles rented from the accommodation at a great price, transfer included from the port, 5 minutes on foot from Anse Severe beach, which I recommend you go to when the water is low and clear, and 10 minutes on foot from one of the most beautiful Anse Pate beache. To the famous Anse Source d'Argent beach, 15 minutes by bike. I strongly recommend this property!

Our stay at LÌlot Beach Chalets was excellent. We didn't want to go to a classic resort, we wanted to try something different and this house in front of the beach was really amazing.. waking up in the morning and seeing the beach and the ocean in front of you was very special.. the beach is relatively small, but very few people are there, mainly the ones staying at this chalet or a couple of other house in the nearby. There is a small kiosk a the beach, which opens from 12 to 18pm every day with a few options to eat and drink. We had some grilled fish there, very good one (but need be patient as it's a small kitchen). Couple of shops nearby (also walking distance) but with not much to buy, just the basic (some bread, water, pasta, sauces, etc..). Otherwise we were driving with the car about 10 minutes to the Beau Vallon Beach area, where there are many other options (restaurants, street food trucks, shops, etc..). Owen, the host was most the time around, he lives in the next house and was always available when we needed something, reaching out to him via phone if we could not find him.

We are definitely coming back here. Host, Owen, is a very good guy. Since we were traveling with small kids, he was very accommodating to our needs and organization especially due to our travel arrangements. Chalet is on a very nice beach, and the view from it is amazing. it is very clean and well maintained. It is also very well equipped and definitely provides you with all that you might require for one great vacation. Top recommendation from our side and we will definitely be back.

Great location. Perhaps the best beach on the island is right in front of you. Unique place. In terms of cleanliness, more could be desired. Linen is not changed, which is a bit careless. Everything else is great. The house is equipped with everything you need. There are shops nearby for shopping. Fast food is also very close. Nice restaurant nearby.

The villa is located at a beautiful quiet beach. Amazing view and really peaceful. Owen, the owner's is very nice and helpful. The villa is very big and has everything we need. Comfortable beds. A few minutes walk to a grocery store. We stayed only 3 nights and wish we could stay longer.

Excellent location, with a stunning ocean view. Access to the beach is so convenient, especially for a family. Mr Owen (the owner) is a very welcoming, friendly, and warm person. We stayed for 5 nights with our two kids - very much enjoyed it. We will go back to Lílot Beach Chalets.
