Amazing beachfront getaway

We had an amazing family vacation at Beach Cottages in the Seychelles. The rooms and grounds are very well-kept. Lots to do in the area, kayaks, snorkeling, etc. The sunsets are exceptional. We have booked this property several times and have never been disappointed.

3 weeks in Paradise

Today is the last day of a 3 week family vacation in Seychelles. Our stay at Beach Cottage was nothing less than perfect. The staff is friendly and accommodating, the location is ideal…. Let’s talk about the best part of Beach Cottages — THE SUNSETS, I don’t believe there is another location in the world with sunsets this breathtaking.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on your stay at Beach Cottages. As a returning client, on many occasions, it is pretty safe to assume Beach Cottages is your home away from home. You and your family are now part of our family and we always enjoy hosting you. Thanks again for your glowing comments and we look forward to seeing you again at Beach Cottages for sundowners.

Beautiful location and amazing views.

We stayed here for four nights. Jane who worked at reception helped us feel at home. She arranged car rental for us, gave us kayaks and life jackets to use for free and even gave us some bananas for breakfast (it is self catering). They had great kitchen facilities, including a coffee maker! The beds are comfy. The water from the shower was always hot! The apartment was clean and such a good price. We were right by the beach. The cottages are quiet and they provide sun loungers and a shower to use outside after going to the beach. They allowed us to check out late on our final day as our flight wasn't until 5pm, no extra cost. Seychelles is a beautiful place and staying here made the experience even more so! Good location for the beach and right next to a mini mart which was handy for getting water. …

Not trustable!

We canceled our planed stay via telephone within the cancellation period. 2 Month later the owner seemed to have forgotten about it and still charged the full price - Not trustable at all. Don't go there.

Guest's reservation was made through an Online Travel Agent (OTA) and not direct with Beach Cottages. Your claim that you called us to cancel the booking is false. Cancellation should have been made through the OTA. If you had cancelled you would have received notification from the OTA that your booking had been cancelled. We even asked you the telephone number you claimed you called but you could not provide it. At no time did you call Beach Cottages Direct. All you had to do to cancel was simply go on the OTA website to manage your reservation and cancel your booking. We think it is more likely an oversight on your part that your booking was not cancelled. As we could not sell the room we had no choice but to charge full cancellation fees as per our cancellation policy.

Lovely spot with wonderful views

It’s a lovely spot next to Beau Vallon where we had a calm and peaceful stay. It even gets you access to a small beach with good snorkeling options. The facilities are awesome, either for simply hang out or cook your meals. Katrina, the manager, was always very helpful and considerated and she even helped us renting a car. If there, don’t hesitate ordering food from “Infusion”, a local takeaway which directly delivers to this place.

Our location is ideal with a small beach on your doorstep full of marine life and the white sandy beach next door, a 10 minute walk to Beau Vallon. We pride ourselves in our service and we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Please come again.
