Beautiful views and comfy stay

The hotel is remote from Victoria but offers everything you need for a great vacation; restaurant, beach access, spa, gym, and bar/lounge. The room was well maintained and had a beautiful view of the ocean. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating; Ravish is an excellent representative of the Valmer and completely focused on customer service. It was an amazing vacation made possible by the resort and its staff. My only recommendation is to get a rental car if there are plans for sight-seeing (Seychelles observes British driving rules). I would highly recommend the Valmer for anyone heading to the Seychelles.

Wouldn't recommend given the price and services

Very much overpriced for what is given. Cons: Only provided bottled water on first day, otherwise needed to buy from restaurant. Price at grocery down the street was 14, price in restaurant was 50. Half board does not include soft drinks (60 rupee) Does not actually have proper room service. No menus in room. When I called to ask for one, they said I would have to go to the restaurant to get one. I told them that defeats the purpose, they then offered to connect me to the restaurant for them to read the menu to me. When we ordered, there was a 100 rupee fee. Private pool was not actually private as it was visible on the main path to the main restaurant. We requested a privacy contraption of some kind and were told it would be taken care of by 10am the next day; which never happened even after multiple follow ups. When I called to cancel my airport drop off for end of trip because we found a cheaper driver (half price the hotel was offering); they had no record of the airport drop off being requested Very little information about excursions or any kind of information about what to do. We were offered 2 different excursions which were canceled at 8pm the night before. Very far from the north area of mahe, where most activities are. The grounds are very dark at night and the hotel is on a hill. On our last day we lost power at 9am. When we called the front desk we were told there was scheduled maint. On the island and the power would be out 9-3, but we were not informed pri

Would not recommend this hotel

Must have a car to stay here. Too remote. Bad traffic and no sidewalk made it dangerous to walk to the beach. Room was dark. Could not get any food except expensive buffet after 5pm. Staff was fine.

Valmer is average and low value for money

Average hotel which needs to improve quality of its services to compete in the expanding Seychelles hotel sector. Three things need improvement: 1. unfriendly/disrespectful staff attitude (receptionist Sylvie very offensive and discourteous; doesn't even say "thank you" or "good morning"; restaurant staff dismissive, rude and non-responsive despite small number of guests and simple requests). 2. internet only in reception and lounge behind it ! what does it cost to buy routers for the rooms/restaurant/gym uphill and rooms downhill and behind the reception. 3. poor quality food in restaurant: for an isolated hotel with no nearby hotels trying to attract guests seeking a relaxed stay, the food is of very poor quality with average choice on menu). plastic chicken, stale bread, etc.

Rooms are big and clean, with a huge balcony. Climbing up to the restaurant area is a good daily exercise, however believe buggies are available to transport those who do not wish to take the stairs. only negative part really is the dinner, there was no a la carte option available at the hotel, only an overly expensive buffet dinner every day.

Lovely pool and bar

Its a 3 star hotel near the sandy beach of Baia Lazare. Rooms are spacious with a kitchen and dining area but are not particuarly plush. However the pool, bar and restaurant are wonderful and make this place great value.

Die Anlage liegt sehr schöne und macht auf den ersten Blick einen sehr guten Eindruck. Location ist super. Leider fehlt hier etwas die klare Linie. Die Kleinigkeiten/Details stimmen nicht so richtig. Die Motivation der Mitarbeiter etwas besonderes zu „zaubern“ ist nicht vorhanden. Ein Management mit etwas mehr Gefühl für Stil/Lifestyle könnte hier etwas tolles schaffen. Zimmer und Sauberkeit waren auf jeden Falk OK. Frühstück war auch lecker. Leider ist Preis-Leistungsverhältnis nicht im Gleichgewicht. Bei €250+ die Nacht, hätte ich etwas mehr erwartet

Fint, men stort potensiale!

Overordnet var hotellet fint. Men til å være et hotell på et lite sted, burde eierene kanskje tilrettelegge litt mer for aktiviteter utenfor hotelletsområde eller ha et bredere tilbud på onsite: som ala carte meny, bedre transportservice til lokale restauranter, ting å gjøre på hotellet m.m.

Tyylikäs, siisti ja upea hotelli

Tilava ja tyylikäs huone, hyvin moderni. Ihana parveke ja upea näköala merelle. Uima-allas ja aamiainen erittäin hyvät. Henkilökunta ystävällistä. Hotellialue rauhallinen ja ’vuoristoinen’, golfautolla kuitenkin matkat alueella hoituivat hyvin. Ei ehkä sovellu lapsiperheille. Sijainti oli vähän syrjäinen, mutta bussit kulkivat tiheään, jos halusi saaren itärannalle tai Victorian kaupunkiin.
