6 rooms With beautiful views of the sea at almost every corner, the Seychelles are often rightly regarded as an island paradise. This chain of islands lies well off the coast of East Africa in the Indian Ocean to the south of the Arabian Sea. Whether you want to book a stay in a hotel or a villa, better suited to a family vacation, the Seychelles has plenty of options no matter where you'll be situated. With prices to suit everyone, hotels tend to be upmarket. The smaller ones with a higher rating will also usually offer numerous boutique touches and one-off design styles. There are few better island destinations in the world, and the Seychelles justifiably has some of the best reviews you could ever wish to read. For a truly memorable vacation in the Indian Ocean, check out the numerous boutique hotel options in the Seychelles.
Mahe is the largest of the islands that make up the Seychelles, and it is justly popular with visitors. Victoria, the capital of the archipelago, is located in Mahe, and this is a wonderful place to visit even if you don't want to book a room here. Anse Royale is a popular beach resort in the south of Mahe worth checking out. Situated in the west of the island is Grand Anse Village, which is a beautiful and sleepy place, ideal for getting away from it all at a reasonably affordable price given the luxury on offer. In the north of Mahe, you'll find Beau Vallon, which is often regarded as having the most popular beach of any in the Syceheels. Hotels here offer great views, and this location offers convenient access to the Baie Ternay Marine National Park, a park that is well worth making time for. To the north of Mahe on the Seychelles map is La Digue, where availability can be more limited - something that influences room rates, of course. La Digue is a much smaller island but stunningly beautiful. just a few miles west of La Digue is Praslin, which has its own Grand Anse resort. Boutique villa accommodation and hotels can be found around Baie St Anne. The island's ferry terminal, which connects it to the other islands, is in Baie St Anne, worth noting if you plan on moving from hotel to hotel during your stay.
All of the best hotels in the Seychelles, from Anse La Blague on Praslin to Pointe Au Sel on Mahe, have everything provided that you could expect. Free Wi-Fi and included breakfast is the norm but you should read the reviews before you book - don't go on the star rating of hotels you like the look of alone. In some cases, you can expect excursions to be laid on to key points of interest on the island, including any national park area that is close by, however, excursions to other islands tend to be dealt with separately. Many boutique hotels have a pool if you don't want to swim in the sea. However, only the larger ones will have spa facilities or aqua treatments you can book. If not in your hotel, there is probably a spa nearby you can attend for a small fee. Some hotels even include day spa rates within their nightly room prices so this is worth checking. Many hotels also have good restaurants and serve a combination of Western as well as Seychellois cuisine, which is a delightful blend of African and Indian food with an accent on fish dishes.
This island group offers year-round availability. That said, the most popular time to come is in the summer due to the way family vacations tend to work in both Europe and North America. Depending on where on the map you are situated, the summer can be quite hot. Therefore, it is sometimes better to book hotel rooms in the fall or spring, around October or April, when prices and temperatures can be lower. Check out the price of the boutique hotel you want to book at various times of the year because you may find your vacation is more cost-effective if you can move your chosen dates - yet it will be no less memorable with all of the same availability of services and stunning scenery on offer. Note that the Seychelles do not suffer from a hurricane season as such, but stormy, tropical weather does occur, typically in January or early February.
Although the Seychelles constitute a small island nation, it is a proud country with exceptional natural beauty. From a warm welcome at any of the hotels you might choose to the picture postcard-perfect sandy beaches, there are few places on the planet that can match these islands for stunning views or dramatic landscapes. With delightful aquamarine waters to explore at every beach, booking your next vacation in such a delightful place will not disappoint.
