"Pros: I like everything about the property, it’s just a home. Very comfortable and nice. 3 minutes walk to the grocery store, 7 minutes walk to the beach. Everything is swiftly accessible." ~Onyedikachi
"Pros: We booked an apartment here for a week, and overall, it was a great decision. The location is fantastic - very close to some of the island's most beautiful beaches. However, I’d recommend renting a car, as it’s situated on the quieter side of the island, which is far from both the airport and Victoria, so public transport options are limited.
The property’s entrance and garden were stunning, filled with lush plants. While there wasn’t a sea view, the garden view was peaceful and very pleasant. One feature we really appreciated was the private, secure parking available for guests. There’s also a small terrace in the garden with a barbecue, which was a nice touch.
As for the apartment itself, it was spacious and well-suited to our needs. We booked the two-bedroom unit, which also had two bathrooms - an added bonus! The living room and kitchen area were open-plan, making it very comfortable for us to relax and cook meals.
Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely consider returning for another visit.
Cons: The main issue we encountered during our stay was the cleanliness of the apartment. We found leftovers from previous guests, and there were areas that clearly hadn’t been cleaned in a while, which was disappointing.
There were also a few other things that weren’t necessarily "wrong" but felt a bit unusual. For example, the apartment was only cleaned every second day, which we hadn’t expected.
As for the host, we didn’t meet her in person, but communication was smooth, and she was helpful when we needed assistance with renting a car. However, our arrival was a bit odd. After 34 hours of travel, we were exhausted and didn’t receive the warm welcome we had hoped for. Instead of the host or manager, a housekeeping lady handed us the keys, rushed explanation in under a minute, and then left to catch her bus.
We’ve stayed in many apartments around the world, and we've always been greeted with something small as a welcome gesture - whether it’s water, fruit, or a small treat. Here, there was absolutely nothing, which was a bit surprising, especially considering it wasn’t our first time in the Seychelles. At another property, we were welcomed with fresh fruit, local wine, water, and sweets, so the lack of a welcome gesture here felt odd.
Additionally, the kitchen wasn’t equipped with some basic items like oil or laundry detergent for the washing machine. While not a major issue, it was a bit strange to have to buy everything ourselves. One more thing - there were only three coffee capsules provided for the week, and we were told we could buy more at a price much higher than in the supermarket. It would have been nice to either have more capsules for a weeklong stay or none at all, rather than just three.
Despite these issues, the apartment was overall fine, and everything else was satisfactory, but the cleanliness definitely left a bit to be desired." ~Andras
"Pros: Wonderful, beautiful, clean area. Daily cleaning of rooms and area. Flora and fauna are amazing.
Cons: There could be a better beach nearby." ~Roman
