Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a clean and pretty room with a view of the spa or garden, though beach views are limited. The service is hands-on and attentive, but management support is lacking. The location is stunning on a paradise beach, yet slightly isolated. Dining provides good quality with a reasonable variety. The facilities are well-maintained and offer a nice range of amenities.
The hotel offers cute rooms equipped with all necessary amenities, perfect for couples, although mine wasn't ready yet. The service was incredibly polite, patient, and accommodating, making my stay very pleasant. The location is good too, ideal for any meal of the day, and the dining experience, although a bit simple and repetitive, was satisfactory. The facilities are modern and well-maintained.
The hotel offers very nice and clean rooms, perfect for a family stay, although the kitchen area could have had more equipment. The rooms are nice and secluded from the main house, providing a quiet atmosphere. The service is efficient and the staff, especially our wedding planner Irene, are very friendly and attentive. The location is perfect in a beautiful bay, ideal for star gazing and romantic moments. The dining experience is good, with a nice fruit display and diverse dishes. The facilities are excellent.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that were clean and pretty, suitable for a family of 4, although the couch and extra bed were hard to sleep on. The rooms were unfortunately full of ants and had a strong smell of varnish.
Staying in the beach-close rooms was convenient, offering some privacy on the first floor, but not directly on the beach. The rooms were spacious for a family of four, although some had to sleep on a hard couch and extra bed. However, the presence of ants and a varnish smell detracted from the experience.
Upon our morning arrival at the hotel, we found the rooms perfect with baths and showers and a view of the spa or garden, albeit on the smaller side. The service from Dams and Wasim was excellent, although they seemed unsupported by the management team. The location was great with open views of the beach but somewhat isolated. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with a disappointing selection on some days but excellent options like fresh fruits and individual omelets on others. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel rooms were spacious, neat, and tidy, perfect for a family, although the kitchen area could have had more equipment. The location was beautiful, ideal for stargazing and enjoying a glass of champagne. The service was attentive and professional, ensuring my room was ready quickly. The dining options were amazing with diverse dishes, but there was a slight disappointment on one evening. The facilities are huge with great amenities.
The hotel has good rooms that are clean and pretty, but they are very old and need renovation. Despite being a bit humid even with the AC on, the rooms offer a comfortable stay. The service was incredibly helpful and kind, especially in ensuring a quick turnaround for room readiness after early check-out. The prime location, right next to famous beaches in Mahe, Seychelles, makes it a top choice. The dining experience is varied and offers good quality food. The facilities are well-maintained, though some areas may have a paint smell due to ongoing refurbishment.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, despite a slight humidity issue that didn't affect our overall enjoyment. The hotel is conveniently located near one of the nicest and cleanest beaches in Mahe. The service was superb, with hospitable and kind staff, although there was a minor hiccup during check-in that caused some frustration. The location right on a blissful secluded beach is a standout feature. The dining options were good overall, with a nice fruit display and fluffy pancakes, but some days were hit and miss. The facilities were excellent, making for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
