Best hotels in Seychelles

The Seychelles has it all – beautiful beaches, the bluest of waters, a rich fusion of culture and spicy flavours – and Avani serves it all up for you with soul. Located on the west coast of the biggest island, Mahé, our location is unbeatable in accessibility and beauty, facing open ocean and the sunset. Head across the island each day to explore gardens of Eden or bustling markets. You can also charter a speedboat to snorkel, swim with manta rays, or visit nearby islands.

The perfect place for guests traveling to La Digue Island; Patatran Hotel offers a unique atmosphere of peace and tranquility. The hotel is located at Anse Patates which can be reached by bicycle or on foot if you are up for a hike, but if you have luggage it is more advisable to take a taxi from the jetty. We also have a restaurant where guests can enjoy a breakfast buffet, afternoon lunch by the pool, or creole dinners. A bar is also available where guests can enjoy cocktails at their own cost.

In a quiet corner of tiny La Digue island, the squeaky white sand and sky-blue waters set the scene for your Seychelles escape quite nicely. And in this corner is Domaine de l'Orangerie, a beautiful resort with 63 villas that harness the natural beauty that surrounds them. Organic materials let the outside blend with the interiors and even the bathrooms are semi open-air, so a soak under the stars is a must. For even more pampering, the Eden Rock Spa is nestled amongst boulders high above the beach and offers heavenly coconut-infused full-body massages. When you're up for something more active, the resort is well-equipped for a few island adventures too.

Situated in Cerf Island, Fairy-Tern Chalets Cerf Island offers beachfront accommodation 60 metres from Takamaka Beach and features various facilities, such as a garden, a terrace and barbecue facilities. Featuring sea and garden views, this apartment also includes free WiFi. The accommodation offers a shuttle service, while a car rental service is also available.

Kokogrove Chalets on Mahé Island offers charming wooden self-catering units that overlook a beautiful swimming pool and lush garden on Enfoncement Hill. Just a short 0.6-mile distance from Anse Royale beach, each air-conditioned chalet is decorated with vibrant colors and includes a patio, seating area, and satellite TV, as well as a safe and mosquito net. Each unit also boasts a kitchenette with a refrigerator, toaster, and kitchenware, while tea-and-coffee-making facilities are also available.

If all you really want to do is soak up the sun and enjoy calm, crystal-clear waters, you may not have much motivation to leave Acajou. From here you can enjoy the best year-round beach in Seychelles, an incredible full-service pool, gardens full of endemic flora and fauna and a range of modern amenities and comforts.
