    SeyVillas made my booking experience very easy. I found all my required accommodations all under one roof.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    The Seychelles is so much like the Caribbean in culture and climate, but that much nearer to Europe by plane. The population were of mixed ethnic groups and were all so friendly. All the islands have so many wonderful beaches, the wildlife is just there waiting to be photographed, and there is history everywhere from slavery to missionaries, from French colonialism to English colonialism to independence. It is all there in the Seychelles. The only downside is that for snorkelers, a lot of the coral is dead or dying, but fish still remain in the area. Many Lemon sharks and rays can be seen and we were lucky enough to see a turtle making her way back to the water after laying her eggs at the top of the beach.

    Nice clean residence with swimming pool and within a short walk to Beau Vallon beach and the local market.

    The Beach House (Mahé)

    A gem of a place just across from the top of Beau Vallon beach and a bus-stop to Victoria almost outside the gate. Lovely caring staff offering help with laundry and directions. They even put mosquito repellant burners outside the rooms in the evening to prevent you from getting bitten. Breakfast is basic choice but adequate given the warm climate. We would happily stay here again.

    Helpfulness of staff, ease of website to make your own dream holiday. The professional service highly appreciated. In addition, staff was looking after us and our satisfaction all along. Work well done on a tailored service

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Absolute must see Praslin island due to the friendliness of people, the cleanliness and also the nature that protect.
    The destinations as a whole we think is heaven.

    Personnel was welcoming and friendly. Perfect service and location. Beach is in arm's length.

    Pension Fidele (La Digue)

    It was inconvenient since construction was taking place and noisier than expected for a holiday and relaxation. Hospitality of staff was unwelcoming

    Choice Villa (Mahé)

    Very kind staff and nice service. The apartment is spacious.

    Transfer

    Very accurate and professional service. With so many transfers there was no error or delay- very well organised

    After much research we decided with booking accommodation and transfers through Seyvillas. We are from the UK and can honestly say the service from enquiry through to the whole holiday experience has been exceptional.
    The ease of site, booking the days you want under island hopping and the accommodation choices based in budget was outstanding.once initial enquiry was raised response received with 12 hours with confirmation of availability. Streamlined service for payments and prompt communication in relation to vouchers, transfer times, fast ferry options. Thank you Seyvillas, would definitely recommend you to anyone travelling to the Seychelles that wants flexibility outside of the normal package company restraints.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Wonderful..we went straight to Praislin after landing, onto La Dique and then to Mahe. Fabulous location, and people. Would recommend hiing a car on Praislin and Mahe. Its the only way to see the islands and experience the real culture of the islands. Worth mentioning that although you can build a holiday based in budget it is expensive when there.

    Excellent location at end if road in Anse Colbert Cote d'or. Minute from beautiful beach and shops restaurants. We booked a Deluxe room, worth extra. Great buffet breakfast with lots of choice, small pool but ideal for end of day swim and drink at pool bar. Pizzeria on beach very good for cool drink or food with great staff. Room was large but shower over bath had to be removed from bracket however it didn't spoil experience or location.

    La Diguoise (La Digue)

    Fabulous...tropical oasis in the sun. Although 500m down a track from road, beautiful place with large gardens well looked after and a great pool. Perfect for a stop during the island cycling especially in the heat. Elody the owner ensured everything was cared for, from details of island, arranging cycles to be delivered and although only had eve ing meal once outstanding food. Perfect location as very close to L'union estate and Anse Source d'Argent.

    Bliss Hotel (Mahé)

    Great place on the beach. We had a garden villa but was upgraded to a sea view garden room on arrival. Steep steps up to garden rooms and pool, however quiet and if out most of day not an issue. Breakfast was included, ok not too much choice but ample to start day. We didn't east in the buffet but Rockppol Bar and restaurant next door. Great atmosphere and location. Supermarket although small a couple of minutes walk. Great beach and snorkelling and view across to Silhouette. Sunsets amazing. Would recommend hiring a car

    Transfer

    Excellent all transfers were managed efficiently, staff to meet at each arrival and transfers back to jetty and airport.very helpful staff friendly and efficient.

    Thank you for everything...it made the whole experience exceptional

    SeyVillas and all its staff have been excellent from the very start of our booking and right through our trip to the Seychelles.
    The staff were extremely helpful and informative with our booking. Any questions were answered very quickly.

    The location of our guest house in La Digue was perfect and SeyVillas sets excellent standards with there listed properties and local people.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    The Seychelles is a magical location, with amazing local Creole food, fantastic beaches and interesting Jungles.
    The locals of the Seychelles were very helpful and friendly people, always helpful with advise when needed.

    Doris and Charles run one of the very best accommodations I have had the pleasure of visiting around the world ( I do travel a great deal !) The welcome by Charles at the local jetty was unexpected and much appreciated. The Guest house is set in some wonderful gardens, full of beautiful local birds ! The facilities and our room were spotless, a real credit to all the hard work and attenshion to detail by this couple. The breakfast were amazing, a wide variety of fresh fruits, pancakes, eggs and local fresh bread made an excellent start to the day. Charles was also very helpful sorting out bicycles for us which made getting around La Digue very easy. A fantastic Guest House run by a fantastic couple.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    We love Seychelles, it's like paradise on Earth, most picturesque beaches and crystal clear water to swim, delicious fruits and fresh fishes, friendly people.

    Good service, friendly staff, as expected.

    Booking was easy, information sent through was comprehensive and everything was slick.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Eating out was a bit expensive but always good, the people were friendly and the hotels excellent. La Digue was so relaxed although I would recommend taking torches for the evenings as the streets were unlit and none of the bikes seemed to have lights. Mahé was quite busy by comparison!

    We particularly liked the nature trail and we also had a cocktail lesson there. It’s not something they do regularly but they they are thinking of doing it as an option. The staff were very good, the hotel lovely. It was a little remote from the rest of the island though. Perhaps next time we would choose somewhere nearer a town.

    La Diguoise (La Digue)

    Such beautiful gardens. Elodie was so helpful and the food delicious (especially her homemade jams). Hi

    The pools were both good, one with great views and the other quieter.

    Transfer

    The transfers all worked really well but the one on Mahé from the ferry to Valmer was in an old bus that rattled a lot and the driver drove quite quickly.

    Seyvillas were able to recommend the best locations depending on the season and picked very suitable accommodation for our needs. They responded promptly to any emails and it was all seamless.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Amazing destination...didn't know paradise existed until we visited the Seychelles

    Loved the boutique nature of this hotel. Food was excellent, room enormous although a little dated. Beach was fantastic and we loved having breakfast on the beach

    Large resort style hotel. Rooms modern and clean. However, we couldn't swim in the sea during our stay due to red flags and the food was a bit bland and mass produced.

    Transfer

    Everything went smoothly

    Seyvillas funciona bastante bien para reservar hoteles y alquilar coches. Tardan un poco en contestar pero no mucho y la oferta que tienen es muy buena

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Impresionantes playas y rutas

    The Beach House (Mahé)

    Muy agradable alojamiento. Las habitaciones son funcionales pero agradables, amplias y limpias. La localización es muy conveniente. Justo enfrente de la playa (hay que cruzar una carretera) y a un paseo de la zona de bares de Beau Vallon. El desayuno completo y fresco. El equipo muy agradable y servicial. Tiene espacio para aparcar dentro del recinto.

    Excellent from start to finish,island hopping needs many transfers etc.but everything worked without a hitch.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Wonderful place,climate,surroundings,people,food unbeatable.

    Nice friendly hotel,good beach and swimming (despite some seaweed problems ) Great bar and bar-staff,our favorite apero spot of the holiday! Excellent spa.

    Stunning hotel,the greeting on arrival set the tone.Fantastic room right in the jungle,great food and service and a lovely spa.They don`t have a good beach but make it up with their ``beach harbour`` and a superb pool area.Quite expensive but it was so good it did`nt seem to matter!

    Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa (Silhouette Island)

    Beautiful beach villa and great beach and swimming but some disappointing aspects.Generally a bit run-down and in need of a facelift.We thought they took too much advantage of their exclusive position eg.no walking outside the resort allowed without an expensive guide,no access to the village shop,charges for bike hire (one could only ride around the resort !) and minigolf etc.etc.For an average meal for two in the Japanese restaurant we paid 350.-Swiss francs! Of course, we still had a good time there (the streetfood evening was excellent ) but of the three hotels,this is the least likely that we would go back to.

    Transfer

    Everything worked like clockwork, one delay of 45 minutes sitting in the bus on arrival at Mahe airport probably caused by other passengers,otherwise excellent.One even started to enjoy the rugby scrum of reclaiming luggage after each ferry transfer!

    I like to thank the Seyvillas team for there support from booking till the checkout of the Villa, They always answered my queries and also helped us with all the information required. In CERF island , Rita was not available but her son Dominic helped us a lot with the greetings , welcome drink and showing all around the villa and also giving more info on things to do on the island and also was smooth with handling things . loved the villa and the staff for there helpfulness.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Seychelles , World of islands . Its was the tourism day we landed in this beautiful island, greeted by the airport staff with creole dance .Our journey begins and we stayed in this country for 9 days travelling 4 most loved islands (mahe, praslin,ladigue and Cerf) . we have covered almost all of the beautiful beaches and other places which are attractive , we did hiking and had been to anse cocos , swim in the natural pool of anse cocos. snorkeled in the St.Anne national park. we feed the tortoises in moyenne island . So many memories we have taken back with us memories which are well captured in pictures . We loved the people , laid back islands, landscapes food and experience . Already most of our friends are planning for seychelles trip , we also like to visit this place again.

    Loved the villa with all the required items, Rooms , kitchen are pretty clean and also with kitchen utensils which are required but one rice cooker was missing. But anyway we managed with other utensils. Awesome place to stay and hear the beautiful songs of birds and the view of the cloud covered Mahe island was superb , loved the island with very less people and privacy.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    The Seychelles: beautiful nature, friendly people. Self catering houses are very good and nice equipped.

    Les Villas D'Or (Praslin)

    Self catering houses are clean, very good and nice equipped. Friendly manager (Pierre)! Beautiful garden.

    Self catering houses are clean, very good and nice equipped. Beautiful garden. Nice owners. We liked the possibility to rent bycicles and to order diner.

    Hotel with nice, clean rooms. Very nice staff. Good breakfast and diner. The outside of the building needs a refurbishment.

    The place where everything looks like on a postcard just much more better. Peace of heaven.

    Choice Villa (Mahé)

    Beautiful, tidy, having one of the best locations for real relaxation place. We were amazed how apartment personnel takes care on every detail. We felt like beeing among people we can trust and much more, like among persons we know for a long time, they were smiling, helpful and simply enjoying to do their best for us. Hope you see this post, THANK YOU SO MUCH. Hope to see you again.

    Organizing our honeymoon with Seyvillas was a perfect decision. Great communication, prompt answers and quick reply to our inquiries among other positive aspects such as a wonderful webpage for organizing island hopping around Seychelles. Thank you for making our honeymoon true!!!

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Paradise on earth... landscapes, beaches, food, exotic fauna and flora. In order of preference, Mahe, Praslin and La Digue. Be ready for some action in case of renting a car!

    Our stay in the Pool Villa was such an amazing experience! Perfect room and amenities as well as the hotel in general. Friendly staff, awesome breakfast and dinner buffet. Spa highly recommended as well as the beach nearby, Baie St. Lazaire (so far the best during our stay in Seychelles!!)

    Unfortunately our stay in La Digue and in the Honeymoon Suite was not as expected... Facilities of the hotel old fashioned, they do not have a club car and almost all of the rooms are up in a hill. We rented bikes and they were terrible! No maintenance so far, even had an accident because of the brakes. Be prepared for cockroaches at night if you stay up in the hill. The breakfast was the worst of our sta in Seychelles, as well as the dinner we had there... At least the beach nearby the hotel was beautiful.

    Nice surprise staying here, great price / quality and highly recommended. Awesome staff and really good dinner! Also the pool and the views are really nice, plus its location next to the harbour. I would recommend Cote Mer for a pleasant stay in Praslin

    Transfer

    Everything OK with the transfers. Punctual, confortables and on time all of them

    Great service booking through the website. And fairly straightforward.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    The Seychelles is amazing, particularly La Digue, would love to go back.

    Fantastic hotel, enjoyed every minute. So pleased we stayed here rather than anywhere else, staff were great, the Pizzas at the restaurant were insanely good! And the beach and facilities were top notch!

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Diversity of the islands and things to do and the friendly people

    Villa Creole (La Digue)

    Friendly and helpful staff and great to be so close to the beach. Lots of local restaurants and supermarkets within easy cycling and walking distance Felt we were in the heart of the island

    Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa (Silhouette Island)

    Loved this resort with its gorgeous long beach and the hotel's efforts with sustainability. Lovely pool and great choice of restaurants. Great service and friendly staff

    Transfer

    All very efficient from beginning to end.

    Excellent

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Nice place, lovely people

    My only comment is regarding food options: as a place in a island, I expected much more seafood options for either appetizers and main courses, mainly in the beach bar/restaurant. But all other attractions in the resort are very good.

    It was very nice to get the helpful information beforehand from Seyvillas (packing list etc).

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    It's an absolutely beautiful place. I loved the beaches of course, the glorious sea, the lush tropical landscape, and the (mostly ) laid back people. My favourite island was La Digue, it felt so unspoilt. Beau Vallon seemed big and commercial in comparison, but it had other charms; people watching on the beach, the closeness to Victoria, the Wednesday market.

    The Beach House (Mahé)

    The Beach House was made very special by the kindness and personal care of Cecile. The room was very big and had everything I needed, and it was great to hear and see the sea from my veranda. Jayda cooked me a beautiful meal one evening.

    Communication was good once we began to speak to each other by email but I was under the understanding that confirmation would be within 24 hours then find that the acceptance of the booking was within 24 hours and then I was told that I would hear within 3 days if it was confirmed. As this was a late booking this was no good and so, through email communication, we managed to get it confirmed in the following 24hours.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    We saw only 3 of the islands but thought they were all delightful. La Digue was a little disturbing in terms of the local hospitality in some cases being rather resentful. Otherwise both other islands most hospitable.

    Disappointing. The chalet smelt musty when we arrived and didn't appear to have been aired before arrival. The receptionist seemed insistant that we needed to book all of our requirements, tours, car hire etc through her and this was all before we had been shown to our room. Whilst some of the kitchen fridge, crockery, pots and pans etc appeared to be new the bathroom felt like it needed an upgrade and we did not get hot water for any of our showers during our 4 day stay. We were told that this was due to the weather however, after day 1 the sun was shining constantly. On day 2 we were asked if it was ok if our room wasn't serviced as they were short staffed. We did agree as we felt sorry for the reception lady as she said she was going to have to service the room, but it is not what we expected for the price we had paid for the room. The location is great, just a few minutes walk from a lovely stretch of the beach and with shops nearby if self-catering.

    Very good and helpful with timely responses

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    The vibe, friendly people generally helpful and relaxed in a tropical paradise

    Clean, generally helpful staff, I have dietary requirements and they changed menus to suit, lovely location quite remote but we preferred that.

    Le Surmer (La Digue)

    We loved La Digue, and La Surmer was equally laid back, more basic but large spacious villas that some might say needed updating but we enjoyed the laid back vibe, Great location.

    Very poor, rooms were old, shower curtain and bathroom very tired and dirty we believe the bathroom smelled of sewerage. Water in hallway was left for sometime, ashtrays unemptied and Staff appeared disinterested. food was VERY disappointing although they did try to adapt breakfast arrangements because of our early start, it was a poor end to a wonderful holiday.

    Transfer

    Generally excellent, we shared a transit at the end and appeared to have been told the wrong pick up time that meant others were waiting for us.....otherwise generally very efficient

    Very happy with all my interactions with the staff there. Each time I asked for anything, the reply was prompt and helpful.

    Holiday on the Seychelles

    Loved the Seychelles, the natural beauty is unmatched.

    Villa Dorado (Mahé)

    Breakfast was great, always served with a smile. My room was lovely, large and clean. The beach is great for swimming during high tide.

    I stayed in the honeymoon suite which was it's own separate little villa. It surpassed my expectations. The location is very pretty, the breakfast was good and evening meals too. Entertainment on Thursday night really let you get a feel for the locals.

    The staff here is wonderful, breakfast buffet is good. I liked my room, it was very clean and quiet there.
