Surfers

Location fantastic. Beautiful view and tropical paradise feeling. Apartment was immaculate, very very clean and kept so by absolutely brilliant staff from the Janitor to the cleaning staff e.g. he shared fresh picked bananas with their guests simply because they were ready to be picked and it is nice to share, she washed my t-shirts simply because she was putting a load on and she heard us saying that i needed to wash some, he hosed my hire car down (and another guests that happened to be in the car park) simply because he saw they were dusty. Richard the owner was brill and they all made us feel soo comfortable. Will definitely come back and recommend to anyone.

Simple Beauty

We had a fantastic stay at Surfers. 7 days of rest, plenty of quiet and lots of surf/sand. We were able to either enjoy the restaurant on site, go out to another place or just stay back and cook for ourselves. Being able to prepare some simple meals ourself helped keep our costs down and put that money on other experiences (boat tour or shopping) The place was VERY clean and comfortable! Airport transfer was perfect and they stopped at a grocery store on the way in to buy some supplies, VERY HELPFUL.

Great views from the terrace

We really enjoyed our stay at Surfers. The kitchen was stocked with essential cookery and there was ample space for our family of 4. We especially enjoyed the moonscapes from our terrace at night. The restaurant down at the beach below the apartments was very good indeed. Our place was cleaned thoroughly everyday but other than that we felt like we had total privacy, which we enjoyed. A great place for independent travelers who don't need much guidance or hand holding to male the most of the destination.

Ottimo alloggio alle Seychelles! L’appartamento si trova in una buona posizione, davanti ad una spiaggia molto bella. È provvisto di tutto, super pulito è come sentirsi a casa! Il proprietario è stato sempre disponibile e gentilissimo, ha accolto tutte le nostre richieste e ci ha aiutato anche dopo il check out. Mary-Jane, carinissima ci ha dato consigli su cosa visitare. Struttura super consigliata!

Budget stay

Das self catering Chalet war für den Einstieg auf die Seychellen ganz ok, ist eher was für Urlauber die viel vorhaben und unterwegs sind, aber nicht für die Flitterwochen geeignet. Wenn man eine romatische Unterkunft sucht ist man hier falsch. Das Chalet war aber insgesamt sehr sauber gehalten, zT jedoch ein bisschen heruntergekommen. Die Küche war nur mit dem Basic set ausgestattet, hätte vllt noch ein oder 2 Töpfe und einige Kochlöffel gebrauchen können. Das Zimmer war auch nur mit den basics ausgestattet, hier sowie in der ganzen Unterkunft insgesamt fehlte uns einfach der Charakter, da nicht wirklich liebevoll eingerichtet. Zu dem Chalet zu kommen muss man entweder eine sehr steile Auffahrt hoch laufen oder mit dem Auto hochfahren. Hier währen anstatt die Büsche neben der Auffahrt einige Stufen angebracht, damit der Aufstieg erleichtert ist. Parkplätze vorhanden und auch ein Auto würden wir empfeheln, da ansonsten wenig in der Nähe und nicht leicht erreichbar ist. Managment hätte auch ein wenig netter bzw zuvorkommend sein können. Zu guter letzt war der Strand gegenüber toll und ein erster guter Einblick in die Seychellen. Frühstück ist ca 10-15 euro pro Person extra.

Comfortable chalets near to the beach

I warmly recommend this place to all whom want to spend their vacation outside hotel resort and main tourist areas. The chalets are spacious and really clean. The beach is really close, but not the best beach for swimming because the water is shallow. Perfect for a picnic or nap though. I used the public transport during my stay and it doesn't take long time to get to some other beaches on the island. The stuff was friendly and I got help with lift to the groceries and airport. It was my first time to Seychelles and highly positive experience.

Nice hotel and beautiful beach you won't expect

We were very satisfied by this hotel, our chalet was very confortable and well equipped, with a kitchen where you can cook your meals. We also tried the hotel restaurant and we were happy to find a good selection of traditional creole dishes and more international ones. The hotel staff was nice and very available to us, the cleaning service very good.
