What a disappointment. Despite having a nice location on a promontory, along with a nice little beach, this hotel underwhelms. The hotel looks like it may have been very nice at one time, but a lack of continued investment and upkeep makes it appear unkempt. Landscaping is unkempt (especially when compared to the Hilton a few doors down. The pool is in fair to poor condition, and heavily chlorinated. Our room was less than stellar - the AC failed to cool well, the windows to the ocean were dirty, and there was what appeared to be a general lack of caring as to the condition of the room. The staff was friendly enough, though. Overall, I wish I would have spent my money elsewhere, as the experience we had was far different than the amount of money spent.

Bien placé sur superbe plage. Propreté moyenne. Restaurant médiocre à éviter. Infrastructures décadentes. L’hôtel a besoin d’un sérieux lifting. Personnel sympathique comme généralement le cas aux Seychelles.

Fin beliggenhet, dårlig service, dra et annet sted
Hotellet har en nydelig beliggenhet på svabergene med en strand ved siden av hotellet. Fantastisk utsikt mot havet og Silouette Island.
Rommene var rene og fine. Nye håndklær hver dag. Safen på vårt rom funket ikke og ble aldri fikset heller, selv om vi ble lovt det.
Frokosten er veldig god, godt utvalg. Lunsj er også ganske bra. Middagen, not so much, dårlig utvalg og lite rullering på menyen som gjør at det er vanskelig å oppleve nye retter ila. et en-ukes opphold. Vi var veganere, og det gjorde det ekstra vanskelig. Vi ble fort lei maten. Kokkene var dog fantastiske servicemennesker som elsker å servere folk god mat, det er personalet ellers som er problemet.
Det bringer meg til mitt neste punkt: Servicen er tragisk! Godt førsteinntrykk med velkomstdrink, men der stoppet det. Ingen smil og "good morning" i resepsjonen. Hvis vi spurte om noe så det ut som de ikke forstod eller fikk vondt. i restauranten fjerner de gjerne tallerken din før du er ferdig hvis du ikke passer på, vi følte oss jagd ut. Oppholdet ble avsluttet med at vi fikk regningen før vi i det hele tatt fikk desserten vi hadde bestilt.
Konklusjon: Invester heller noen ekstra lapper i et annet hotell!

Vue exceptionnelle
Le Sunset est en cours de restauration mais malgré ça l’emplacement est exceptionnel. Notre chambre était impeccable avec accès direct sur la plage, vue d’exception, bercé par les vagues elles étaient devant nous, à une dizaine de mètres de notre chambre !!!

Will go again
We enjoyed our stay , the hotel is in an amazing location but sadly in desperate need of maintenance and a significant refurbishment. The staff are lovely particularly Lucy in the restaurant and they are working hard to make everybody happy but the condition of the hotel is not up to standard although we had a very nice room which was very comfortable there was lots of hot water and for a beach holiday it was perfectly adequate.Food was repetitive but a 7 out of 10

Nice place to start a longer vacation
Friendly and helpful staff.
Nice location with fine beach.
Food was ok, but the menu repeated after a few days.
Five days was a good length of stay.
Dogs was barking every night, was hard getting a sleep.

The property is beautiful but it is a bit run in the maintenance department. For example, missing down spouts, old paint, moldy cushions, rotting wood. Empty bottles and there consumables by hotel residents were not picked up for a couple of days. Service was top notch!

Das Hotel ist abgewohnt und deutlich renovierungsbedürftig. Das FRühstücksbüffet findet beim Personal reichlich Zuspruch, wird dann leider nicht mehr ohne Aufforderung aufgefüllt. Die Vögel finden auch ihr Frühstück am Büffelt ohne dass das Person sich stört. Der Strand ist ein toller Schnorchelplatz und sauber. Zum Abendessen außer Haus ist ein Auto von Vorteil, die Busse fahren bis 20.30 (Taxi ist teuer). Essen im Hotel können wir nicht empfehlen.

Keyifli bir tatil
Balayı için gittik. Otel çalışanları çok ilgiliydi hiçbir problem yaşamadık. Günbatımını otelde izlemek çok keyifliydi. Plajı temiz ve balıklarla yüzmek çok keyifliydi. Çalışanlar güzel yüzlü ve ilgililer.

Absolute paradise! Dream beach. Love this hotel!
Absolutely the best hotel in Seychelles, best Beach for swimming and snorkling any time of day, good temperature in the water too. We enjoyed a bungalow room at the beach. Ah the sunsets we had! Amazing service too. The owner was so kind and showed us good places to go to visit. Stay here at least 2 nights! Longer too if you like. If wetravel to the Seychelles again this hotel is where we'll stay on Mahe! Dreamlike. Thank you!

Great hotel, owners time and money needed
Overall the hotel is great. The staff are mainly friendly and helpful and room service on point. Sunsets are divine.
Watch outs - the waves and current can get big at high tide.
The menu doesn't include service and tax slapping you with an extra 25% on top of any bill.
If the owner spent time and money on the hotel and saying hi to guests rather than rocking up in her Bentley and terrifying the staff the atmosphere would be a lot nicer.

Veldig fint men litt gammelt
Veldig fin lokasjon. Litt slitt hotel men likevel fine fasiliteter. Man forventer mye av servicen på et slikt sted. Mye var bra, men av og til overbeviste den ikke helt.

Full of character, only a small number of rooms, spectacular views at sunset; friendly staff.
Rooms need updating and internet access too (non existent)
