4 Star Seychelles Holidays

Vanessa Williams

My stay here was so comfortable and honestly had the most relaxing time. My friends and I stayed here for about 3 days and truly just enjoyed poolside and beachside. Although the resort is not right off the beach, the beach is a short walk right next door by the hotel’s sister property (Story). The food at the resort was very tasty from the restaurants we tried and we were not disappointed. This resort provided a level of peace and relaxation that I was seeking so if you are looking for a place to enjoy relaxation, this is the place to go!

Just returned from a fabulous 2 week stay at Fishermans Cove. The hotel upgraded us to one of their hilltop deluxe suites overlooking ocean which was amazing. The room was really spacious and the bed extremely comfortable. The large terrace was great,as we could sit and watch the magnificent sunsets. We found the breakfast and dinner buffets in the main restaurant (Le Cardinal) to be plentiful and all very tasty. The head waiter was extremely attentive and friendly. The food was always well presented and they did different food each night based around a theme. The chef cooking the specials each night was really great too. The pool towels were lovely and the largest we have ever had. There are a few tiles missing in swimming pool but its not an issue, as doesn't affect swimming or even walking in it. We found all the staff very welcoming, helpful, friendly and willing to assist in anyway. The cleaners always did a great job and ensured you had bottles of drinking water available in the room. When you go to the beach, there is a small stream (water running into sea from hills) but it is very shallow and narrow, so not really an issue. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would return if we could.

This hotel is ideally located in Beau Vallon. The rooms are comfortable and kept spotlessly clean. I did find the location of the bath next to the bed a little strange but soon got used to it and enjoyed it. The breakfast was delicious with so many choices, but I did find the other meals and drinks too pricey for my South African Rands.

James Steel

Very nice resort. Rooms are good quality and comfortable. Food is either the usual good hotel buffet stuff (the themed nights aren't rigidly adhered to) or the Paris restaurant (excellent) here or you can visit the restaurants in the sister resort next door (Story); they have a very nice teppanyaki restaurant, a trader vic's, and a few others. A reasonable place to explore the island from.

Laura Funke

Beautiful resort right on the beach with clean rooms and ocean view. The staff is very friendly, too. This is the best of the hotels we had staying at Seychelles. For those with food allergies (gluten and histamine intolerance) the buffet is heaven! You find quality delicious food for you and the kitchen chef makes sure he guides you through the food in case you have questions! Very well done! Thank you!

We spent a lovely evening at this hotel! The beauty of the island and the charm of the property certainly gave the effect. But the real treasure was the bar staff with their wonderful guys and the restaurant staff, where the beautiful and attentive Jordan charmed us. Here are the gems of the place. They will make us eager to return here again, and in the meantime we heartily recommend this hotel.

Our recent 7-day stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Allamanda Seychelles was nothing short of perfect, and we owe it all to the outstanding staff and management who went above and beyond to make our holiday truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and felt immediately at home. The team at the front desk, particularly Amir, were incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that every detail of our stay was taken care of with genuine care and professionalism. A special thanks to Emanuel and Chef Ewan, who made our dining experiences exceptional. Their attentiveness to our family’s needs, especially with our two young sons, was truly remarkable. They consistently went the extra mile to ensure that every meal was delightful, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere for us all. But it wasn’t just the named staff members who made our stay exceptional; it was clear that every single member of the DoubleTree Allamanda team was committed to providing excellent service. The warm smiles, helpful attitudes, and willingness to assist with any request made us feel truly valued as guests. To the management team, thank you for leading such an extraordinary group of people. Your commitment to excellence is reflected in every aspect of the hotel, and it made our family holiday in Seychelles one that we will cherish forever. We left with hearts full of gratitude and memories that will last a lifetime. We cannot wait to return to the DoubleTree by Hilton Allamanda Seychelles and experience your outstanding hospitality once again. With sincere thanks,

Had a 3 day honeymoon stay at the hotel and highly impressed by the efforts put in by the staff to make it so special. Amazing ocean view rooms , infinity pool , access to clean beaches & great food are just few of the perks here. We were given complementary goodies on arrival along with vouchers for picnic basket & romantic dinner at pool side with live music. Everyday our room was specially decorated with fresh flowers. Special thanks to housekeeping staff - Vinay for catering our demands , Amir for the lovely greeting & Chef - Abhishek and the entire restaurant team for taking such good care of us.

John Magno

Our visit here was part of a day excursion from the ship. The facilities were fabulous. We were fed a delicious buffet lunch. We were allowed access to the beautiful beach that was inside the reef. We had access to the bar. We were able to use the loungers on the beach to really enjoy our time there. The gift shop offered a good variety of items.

We stayed at the DoubleTree by Hilton, Seychelles for a relaxing 3-day family vacation, and it was an amazing experience. Our beach-facing deluxe room offered breathtaking views that made our stay truly special. A special thanks to staff members Nikhil and Tolera, as well as the Chefs, who ensured we had delicious Indian dishes throughout our stay. Much appreciate their efforts to make our stay comfortable and cater to our tastes. The reception staff were welcoming and helpful in suggesting various options to explore the island, making our trip even more enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful stay at a beautiful location with excellent service. Highly recommended!

Shahzaib Ali

Hotel was lovely and facilities were excellent, but what made the experience truly special was the staff and the service they provided. They were very thoughtful, right from the check-in through to the restaurant and bars. All the staff made sure to introduce themselves and were very attentive throughout our stay. Mango bar has exceptional cocktails! Breakfast was very nice too with the guest breakfast item each day. A special thank you to Ahmed who was very attentive and even provided handwritten notes on a map of La Digue for us.

The highlight of our stay were the staff who are attentive and friendly. From the reception to restaurant staff, everyone did their best to ensure that our stay is as good as possible. Refreshing welcoming drink and very knowledgeable reception staff who provided all information we needed during our stay. The rooms could benefit some refurbishment, altough this was not a big issue for us, they seem to have a charm but looked a bit dated. The dedicated pool for the Black Parrot suites guests has wonderful views especially during sunset and afternoon tea and cookies by the pool are a nice treat. Dinner options were plenty and varied during our stay. Restaurant staff were nice and always proudly presented their dishes. Check out time is bit too early - 10am, but this seem to be a standard on the island.

Tiago Guimaraes Granato de Araujo

The hotel is incredible. Our room was spacious, very comfortable and had just the best view possible. The food was pretty good also and the staff very friendly. We recomend on reserv some good time to stay in the hotel. The pools are great, with beautiful views and also there are some complimentary activities, like kayaking, and others. The sunset view is just amazing.

An Unforgettable Stay at Coco de Mer and Black Parrot Suites We visited Praslin to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, and our stay at Coco de Mer and Black Parrot Suites made it truly unforgettable. The staff went above and beyond to make our celebration special, surprising us with a beautifully crafted cake and a heartfelt, handmade card. It’s these personal touches that made our trip so memorable—thank you to the entire team! What truly sets this hotel apart is its outstanding staff. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Ahmed, who greeted us with a refreshing welcome drink and thoroughly explained the many complimentary activities available during our stay. His attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel right at home. I highly recommend opting for the half-board option during your stay. First, the food is absolutely incredible—delicious, varied, and full of local flavors. Second, the hotel is somewhat secluded, and navigating Praslin in the evening can be a bit challenging due to the narrow, unlit roads. Having dinner at the hotel is not only convenient but also a culinary delight. One pleasant surprise was that the drink prices at the hotel were quite reasonable compared to other places in the Seychelles, and the variety of beverages was impressive. Special thanks to Ajay, who took care of us at every meal. His friendly conversations, helpful suggestions about the island, and thoughtful attention to our preferences made each dining experience a pleasure. I also want to acknowledge the rest of the dinner staff, who were equally welcoming, although I regret not remembering all their names. Anura and Nirakar at the Mango Bar also deserve a mention for their attentiveness during our visits. A unique highlight of our stay was feeding an eel in the hotel’s natural stream—a truly amazing experience made possible by Raien, one of the chefs, who kindly guided us through this. The hotel itself is a bit dated, but it’s clear that they are working hard to maintain the property, and most importantly, everything is kept impeccably clean. The Wi-Fi was a little spotty, but honestly, this wasn’t an issue for us as we came here to relax and disconnect. Thank you again to the entire team for such a wonderful stay—we can't wait to return!

We unfortunately were only able to stay two nights at Coco de Mer, but still had a great experience. Coco de Mer is very modern and clean. The staff members are a dream, they're super friendly and helpful. On our arrival we were greeted by one of the directors Ash and manager Ahmed, and immediately felt welcomed and comfortable around them. We've mentioned in our booking that we were vegan and requested if they could take that into consideration and of course they catered to that. Right away at the beginning during our check-in Ahmed took notice of that and even called the chef for us. One evening the dinner was a la carte and the chef whipped up a vegan dinner menu for us and the other evening dinner was buffet night and even here he took us for a tour around the buffet and showed us what we could eat - and there were lots of choices! Breakfast is buffet style and also has a lot of choices, if by any chance there isn't the staff would definitely cater to that and cook something separately. On our departure day our ferry back to Mahe left a bit later than check-out and Ahmed tried his best to accommodate to that also and checked availability with the reception. Lucky for us we were able to check out a bit later! During breakfast and dinner the staff are always very attentive and taking their time to have chat with us sharing their stories and give out advices and recommendations on the island. Harry and Babar were super friendly and accomodating. We had a very special connection with Babar, he was so so caring! On a side note to my fellow germans: Ahmed, Harry und Babar können super deutsch! Special thanks to Ahmed and Barbar and the chef, whose name we unfortunately forgot, for making our experience at Coco de Mer so much better than we already would have.

We had a wonderful stay. Super friendly staff, very courteous and helpful. The room was good, the cleanliness okay. The beach is beautiful, but the water is very murky due to all the seaweed and there are a lot of stingrays, so be careful when swimming.

Balázs Bence Bencze

We stayed at the hotel for a week on our honeymoon. The rooms and facilities are absolutely good. A hotel organizes a lot of programs, which is amazing, and most of them are free. Most of it is run by John, who is the heart of the hotel! It always creates a very good atmosphere. The restaurant is amazing. Every night they offer a different theme for dinner, so the dishes are always different. The beach is also very nice. Sometimes it has too many stingrays near the shore, but it doesn’t depend on the hotel.

My honeymoon turned into a horror movie. I spent part of my honeymoon at this hotel in May 2024. We traveled many kilometers to visit Seychelles and this hotel, and I can confidently say that I will NEVER set foot in Seychelles again, and the blame lies entirely with this hotel, especially the manager and the director—those who should prioritize the customer experience but instead contributed to making Seychelles and this hotel a nightmare for tourists. I was robbed inside the hotel, within a matter of minutes while I went to the restroom in the pool/beach area. There was no one around except guests or people related to the hotel. Someone stole my drone in the hotel area, along with all my honeymoon photos. Unfortunately, these things can happen, but that wasn’t the worst part. After calling the police to report the theft and seeking clarification from the hotel about what measures would be taken to compensate or at least mitigate the loss and bitter experience, I was accused by the hotel manager (who was later defended by the director) of lying and that the situation “never happened”. They flatly said they would do nothing: “We will do nothing.” As if that wasn’t enough, they lied, claiming they would later contact me with a solution after making contact with the general administration. Seven months have passed, and I have received no response, leading me to conclude that the hotel’s manager and director are colluding to hide their service failure from the administration—or that this company is utterly unprepared, poorly trained, deceitful, accusatory toward its customers, and worst of all, exposes its guests to danger and does not care about their safety at all. My memories of Seychelles are the worst possible, and I categorically state that here in Brazil, I’ve made sure to share what happened and strongly discourage anyone from visiting Seychelles or this hotel chain. Here, my wife and I have a large amount of followers and we have voice. If the chain chose to deceive me and failed to take responsibility, know this: the financial loss they will suffer from losing Brazilian guests will far outweigh the compensation they should have provided. Therefore, I affirm: do not go to this hotel because it turned my honeymoon into a horror movie!

Paradise sun is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. The view from the room of the palm trees and the beach is breathtaking, we love mornings like this. The service is very nice and helpful and the breakfasts and dinners are very tasty. We recommend this place!

Suditi Bhagat

We visited this place in month of may with our family. The hotel is a scam in lot many ways. The hotel is no cheaper they cost you hell and compared to the services they provide is nothing but purely scam. **They don’t offer regular size rooms with kids and the big size which they offer is of no use. The layout of the rooms are so messy that you don’t have space to open your luggage. The cupboards are open and they have so many like so many geckos in the room that u would really not like to unpack your luggage and arrange in the open cupboards. They are least bothered about the geckos running in the room. Even after several complaint they didn’t bother to clean the room. Every time they lied to us that they have cleaned the room but it was never cleaned. We were family of 5 people and in one room there were so many geckos that we all had to sleep together and they were least bothered. At the time of checkout they were like u can’t check out later than 10 am despite knowing that we had faced so much problems at the time of our stay and where we cooperated but they just extended the time for an hour an half and like exactly after the time there men’s were outside the room to pick the luggage. After the sunsets here it’s completely dark. There are no footlights that guides you to your room. I mean what were they even thinking when they were planning the architect of the hotel.?? With kids it’s so difficult to find ways through lush green garden to your room. The lights in the rooms are so dull. It’s just that the property has good beach area to play in sand sun and sea. That’s it!! We have paid heavily for this hotel and we regret every single penny spent here. They charge for water bottles in the restaurant area. They have a widespread buffet menu which is good for non vegetarians and partially for vegetarians. Chefs were quite helpful The pool is great and so is the welcome drink. But I would still regret my stay here because of the inconvenience we had to suffer.

It’s a beautiful resort, promising exceptional view of the sea. The staff is well trained and about each one of them communicate with the guests and make sure that they are well taken care of. Rooms are very spacious, with balcony. House keeping, makes sure all your clothes are well organised and not even a particle of sand is left in the room or bed. They’re have good choice of restaurants and spa too is great. Overall we had a wonderful and memorable stay.

Jarrod Sears

Amazing hotel right on the beach. Food and service were great. Saw large bats flying overhead from the pool. Private beach and snorkeling was amazing. Would love to return if ever possible. Location was a bit away from the cruise port, but that's a plus in my book.

Fanie Mul

The Hotel has little rooms - ours had an open bathroom that blended with the rest of the room and a separated little toilette. But it was clean and everything you need was there. The food was great, I indulged myself in the breakfast - so many tasty choices. The service at the bar was sometimes a bit slow, but drinks were fine. It's nice to have the pool so near located to the beach. We enjoyed our time while relaxing at the beach, the pool and the spa.

Utkarsh Arjaria

Small hotel with very well-kept surroundings. Hotel service at a high level, very friendly and helpful. A beautiful beach. Food fresh. Rooms equipped comfortably, cleaned daily. This is really a very special small hotel with excellent service and the selection of food very good and the quality high. The rooms are nice and comfortable and the amenities well maintained. The beach has a superb area for snorkelling and the fish amazing. Thanks for an excellent stay and attentive friendly staff at all times.

Recently stayed for 2 weeks with my husband and baby and we had the most amazing time. The hotel itself was clean, fantastic location, pool was beautiful and beach was one of the best on the island. But above all the staff was just incredible, every single of of them were so friendly, attentive and remarkably helpful! Their food was delicious with so much variety and entertainment was so fun.You can book excursions and hire cars from the lobby which is very convenient. Can't recommend this hotel more!
