We had a wonderful stay at Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa to celebrate New Year's. The resort is remote, peaceful, and offers excellent service – I can’t fault the staff. There’s a great selection of restaurants, and the New Year’s Gala dinner was exceptional with a wide variety of delicious food. However, for €268 per person, I would have expected a welcome drink or at least a glass of champagne, but none was provided. A reservation mix-up occurred, but the staff resolved it quickly and professionally. We booked a Sanctuary Pool Villa for three adults. Although reception confirmed our party size, the villa was only set up for two. I had to request extra slippers and a gown twice. The villa itself was fantastic, but the mosquitos were a major drawback. I understand the location and season, but a simple plug-in repellent could have made a difference. We couldn’t enjoy the veranda in the evenings due to the relentless mosquitos, which was disappointing. A key point for future guests – the boat transfer to and from the resort is not clearly mentioned and costs approximately €250 per person return. This fee is added to the final bill, and I believe the management should make this clearer on their website to avoid surprises. On a positive note, the resort offers a good range of activities. We booked an early morning fishing trip for around €650, which was reasonable compared to Mahe. The captain and skipper were excellent, and we caught two tuna, two kingfish, and a dorado – well worth the experience! Overall, Hilton Labriz is a beautiful and serene destination, with a few areas for improvement. Despite the minor issues, we had a memorable stay and would recommend it for those seeking relaxation and great service.
