Ssaeed alaviniaAs it was our first time in the Seychelles, I was hesitant to book a bed&breakfast place for us but I decided to listen to the positive reviews - I am glad I did!
The room is spacious and feels like home. It's spotless clean and has all one'd need for a no frills stay. What takes the experience to the next level is the view out of the balcony! one would be willing to hike for 2 hours to get to an outlook with the same view as you would get by simply stepping out side into the balcony! it's amazing!
You will get a homy breakfast served to you on that same balcony with the that epic view, too!
I strongly recommend this place. The owners' dedication to high standards of hospitality is truly impressive!
Note: Rent a car! srsly! Don't take a taxi there. it's on top of a hill (that's how you get the epic view). The roads to the place it so steep even the car might struggle to go up the hill at points. You'd need a car to explore the area, go to the beach or restaurants anywhere.
Also a note to the owner if they see this, I have an amazing drone footage of your property - happy to share it with you for your marketing purposes. I can only post pictures here.
GGuest UserI liked everything. The owner is a very kind person. His brother drove me by car, it is much cheaper than taking a taxi. The best beach is 30 minutes away. The hotel is almost at the very top of the mountain, you can enjoy the views.
GGuest UserThe hotel is on the mountain, if you drive by yourself, it is definitely not easy. The hotel has a good view and the breakfast is relatively simple. After all, the price is not expensive, in addition to the inconvenience of the hotel, the whole is OK.
GGuest UserThis hotel is very close to the airport. It is more than one kilometer walk. The landlord’s wife is very friendly. I have a bad language, but I also communicate patiently. I also use his kitchen for free. The service brother of his home is really good. The room is clean and clean. I also rented a car for me. I was really happy with the trip to Mahe Island. Especially happy
Ssaeed alaviniaA nice no frills place to stay.
The service is excellent and the room was very clean! The front desk person was super nice, when they found out that we're leaving very early morning to catch our flight, he brought us our breakfast the night before proactively so we can have it before we leave.
GGuest UserI was happy to live in this accommodation! Very beautiful view to the ocean. There is everything you need for a vacation. Kitchen utilities, you can cook there. And you have WI-FI there! In every room!
RRuth HHIt was a great experience. A family owned hotel and everyone was so kind and helpful to us. Nice location as very close to airport (about 4km) and facilities were clean. Thanks for a lovely stay
ККсения МещеряковаThe hotel is located on the territory of a beautiful garden, next to a restaurant, breakfast is covered on the veranda of your room. Singing birds and growing flowers around. To the beach close. The room is good, clean. On Saturdays there is a DJ in the club next to you.
