The guesthouse has an excellent location near the airport. The apartment was spacious, bright with a very comfortable and large bed. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need. Bird watching from the spacious terrace was pleasant. Nearby is a bus stop, several supermarkets and Take away or a small market with vegetables and fruits. Chez Payet highly recommended!

Beautiful house

Exceptional! A very beautiful house with big rooms, amazing view. The breakfast was very full and good. We regret that we didn’t stay for a dinner to eat fish. Looked really good and not expensive. A special thanks to a manager Raj who was so much kind and helpful with us! There is a bus to go to the center, if not you will need a taxi. A place to stay in Mahé.

Chez Payet Guesthouse

Sehr nah am Flughafen situiert ist dieses Guesthouse sehr für kurze Aufenthalten vor einem Frühflug. Da den auch über eine Küche verfügt könnte man diesen als günstiger Basis verwenden, um Mahé zu erkundigen. Die Ausstattung ist einfach aber genügend und der Besitzer Rodney behilflich. Der Guesthouse grenzt an die Hauptstrasse aber der Lärm davon war nicht übermäßig gross. Kein Frühstück wurde angeboten, da kein B&B.

Hôtel très simple et trop bruyant

Bon accueil de M. Payet. Logement propre et très simple. Très proche de l’aéroport mais situé entre la piste et une route très passante. C’est donc calme seulement entre 01h et 05h. Il ne fait pas nuit noire dans les chambres, les rideaux n’occultant pas totalement la fenêtre.

Slitet men nära flygplatsen

Lägenheten var väldigt sliten och inte alls mysig. Väldigt spartanskt och det lät väldigt mycket från bilvägen. Det som var bra var att det låg nära flygplatsen och att det fanns frukost (ägg, bröd, mjölk, smör) i kylen.

Rodney is the most kind owner I’ve ever met. From picked me up and dropped me off to/from the airport multiple times, he went above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and helped with everything you needed. If one day I return to this beautiful island, I’d definitely choose Chez Payet Guesthouse again. Thank you Rodney. I wish you all the best!
