Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island

Service: The hotel is consistently praised for its exceptional service and friendly, attentive staff, creating a welcoming and personal atmosphere.

After a scenic 30-minute flight from Mahé, we landed on Desroches Island to a line of smiling staff waving us in—just like VIPs stepping off a private jet! From that first moment, we knew this was going to be special. We spent a week at Four Seasons Desroches celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary, and it truly felt like a second honeymoon. Budi Widodo, the General Manager, and his amazing team made us feel incredibly welcomed and cared for. This was the first stop on our three-week Seychelles adventure, and what a way to begin! The staff here are exceptional—greeting you by name, remembering your preferences, and treating you like family. A highlight was our anniversary dinner under the stars at the Lighthouse—romantic and unforgettable. Christian and Nasreen gave us a fun island tour, teaching us to climb coconut palms and introducing us to the island’s tortoises—George quickly became our favorite with his love of tickles! Ela and Henry in the restaurant made every meal feel like a special occasion. If you’re dreaming of paradise, Desroches is it. Peaceful, beautiful, and full of heart. With Budi and his team leading the way, it’s a place you’ll never want to leave. Island life here is soul-refreshing—we left with full hearts and unforgettable memories &a promise to return .

We spent two weeks in this beautiful resort. It’s difficult to mention something in particular as everything was exceptional. We will begin by the most important: the service. Le level of service here is high above expectations and my husband and I are frequent travelers throughout the world: Fidji, French Polynesia, Maldives, New York, London, Paris, etc, always five stars hotels. All the staff are there for you, they anticipate all your needs each time and this has no value. The food is amazing everywhere with our preferences for the the Japanese and Lighthouse. The staff is so kind and are really there for you. The Spa is perfect and the therapists amazing. The room was perfect and the staff taking care of them did a perfect job. The bikes were so useful and we used them to go around the island, snorkeling from each of the different beaches, going to breakfast, gym and dinner. The snorkeling was amazing. We saw: turtles and rays (a lot), octopus, box fishes, sharks and a lot of different fishes. The beaches are beautiful and ypu feel like being alone on them. Usefully, we never travel twice in the same place but we will definitively come back to Desroches. the only thing I missed were some tables to eat outside at the Japanese restaurant. Thanks to everyone for having made it possible. we were in paradise for two weeks
