    Exceptional accommodation and views in Mahé
    Ulrike and her team make a very enjoyable experience of Mahé. The accommodation, self catering, is excellent, very spacious, very private, high quality standard, extremely safe and has one of the best views of the Indian Ocean from its terrace! Passing the Constance Ephelia hotel, you will find one of the best beaches in Mahé. Ulrike y su equipo hacen de Mahé una experiencia muy agradable. El alojamiento, con cocina, es excelente, muy espacioso, muy privado, de alta calidad, extremadamente seguro y tiene ¡una de las mejores vistas al océano índico desde su terraza!. Pasando el hotel Constance Ephelia, encontrarás una de las mejores playas de Mahé.
    Thank you very much for choosing our property as your holiday home. We loved having you and we do hope that you will come back. Villas de Jardin team

    The perfect spot for a self-catering break.
    A fabulous self-catering hotel in a most beautiful location. The villa was large, well appointed and had stunning views south across the Indian Ocean. A spacious living area had all the kitchen facilities we required; there was a large comfortable bed; wonderful bathroom (with the additional outdoor shower) and of course the huge balcony area looking out on to the view. It was the perfect spot for a most relaxing few days. The Villas de Jardin staff were inobtrusive, but still incredibly welcoming, helpful and approachable when required, we couldn't have wished for more from them. The site is situated very close to some of Mahe's more famous beaches at Port Launay (2.5km) and Cap Ternay (5km) and the hills above the villas are scattered with many hiking trails. Although on the quieter side of Mahe, Villas de Jardin is very close (within easy walk) to a few local shops and cafes as well as the wonderful Del Place restaurant being only 10 mins walk away. If you do wish to seek out a little more of the busier side to Seychelles' life Victoria and Beau Vallon are only a 30min drive away as are the larger and well stocked supermarkets at Eden Island and Bois de Rose. All in all a wonderful little find and somewhere we would definitely stay again.
    Thank you so much for choosing our property as your holiday home. We loved having you and cannot thank you enough for this wonderful review. Highly appreciated. Come back again...

    2nd Visit and it’s just as nice
    I stayed here 3 years ago and it was fantastic then. So we contacted them directly and Teresa contacted me with my confirmed dates and pricing for my dates. First things first these villa’s are of a higher level than other villas than some of the others on the island. The finish is better and you are not on top of each other with the other 7 villas. We stayed in the top villa which has views to die for. But all villas have fantastic views of the sea . This is a private joke if you don’t like waking up to hearing the sea against the shores in the morning while having your breakfast. You are advised that the staff can’t turn this sound down ! sorry 😂 . Each villa has air conditioning in each bedroom. Which to be honest is great. Because you spend very little time in the lounge which had a fan. All the rooms are beautifully decorated . You also have a safe and is fully alarmed. The kitchen is just the right size with everything for making a good breakfast or dinner. They also have available in the office a portable oven if you feel you need one . They also have a swimming pool which also has views of the sea. And never gets crowded. All the staff are just great from management to the cleaning staff. You really do feel they care about your stay and try to advise you on restaurants and travel information. So if you’re looking for a villa that is not crowded with other villas and you like that little bit extra quality then this wins every time. Big thanks to Teresa and Erica and not forgetting the cleaning staff
    Dear Terry, you are so generous with your review and we highly appreciate it. It is always very nice to see our guests coming back to stay with us. We are glad you decided to spend your holiday again with us. We hope to see you again in the future.

I with my wife and 9-years daughter stayed at Villas de Jardin in Dec 2021 for 4 nights. The villa itself was big enough. It was very clean and well-equipped. We enjoyed the terrace and the view a lot. The location is OK - up to 10 mins drive to the Port Launay Beach. It was hot in the nights in the bedroom (air-con didn’t help a lot). I should also mention small geckos, who were found by us not only at the terrace, but inside the villa as well. However, I’d definitely recommend the Villas de Jardin for stay at Mahe island.

Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your experience. The villas are built to be open to enjoy the view and occasional breeze so it happens that the little geckos and lizards find their way inside, but it is not very often.

The place is amazing: The location up on the hill is perfect, the view is breathtaking. The host was very lovely and helpful. Room service was excellent. The villa was wide and well equipped. The bed on the terrace, and the outdoor shower are brilliant. The pool was also beautiful, and had a good view point. The one disadvantage (which I took one badge for) is the lack of AC in the living room, which makes it hard to hangout there. There is an AC in the bedroom, but not in the living room.

super friendly & ready-to-support personal! thanks again for all advices & information you shared! fantastic view from all Villas! but in my opinion Villas 1,2,3 are best one for view. nice location - two beach not so far by walk. port Launay is 20 min by walk - one of the best beaches on Mae ( our opinion) very good exercise to reach villas by feet - 152 steps each day two times - very good result for your shape!)))

The good and the not so good. Good Spacious, clean apartment with great views and outdoor space. Del Place 5 mins drive away for evening food and drink. Not so good Kitchen very poorly equipped. No tin opener: no iron or ironing board, no washing machine but you can have washing done on site but very expensive, only two electrical cooking rings and no oven, equipped to absolute minimum. Frying pan provided was very cheap, light weight and only capable of frying one egg, we went out and bought our own. All sliding doors require roller lubrication, very stiff to operate. We were in villa 7 which is on the hillside and not accessible by car, to access the villa you have to climb over 60 steps with all your luggage. The local area does not have much to offer, only one place to eat out at night and a small shack in the village, which is only open for lunch, we eat there the food was very poor.

Dear Dave, thank you very much for staying with us. We are always trying to accommodate our guests complaints and wishes, if we are aware of them. If the guests does not share their complaints with us, there is nothing we can do about it. Del Place restaurant is 1 min drive from the villas or 10 min. walk. You were offered help with your luggage twice and you declined the offer. We have ironing and laundry facility at the reception area. We are tropical island with a lot of humidity and so, the wood is working and moving and when it is a lot of rain it happens sometimes that the sliding doors are hard to open, it is not that they need to be oiled, we do this maintenance regularly. And we are very sorry that you were so disappointed by our little village and surroundings but that is something that we pride as our guests have the deserved piece and quite to relax on their holidays.

Beautiful accomodations, fabulous infinity pool (small), perfect two bedroom villa, gorgeous balcony in the middle of palm trees bananas, fruit trees and jungle foliage. Don't miss the tortoises on prem and nearby waterfalls. Magnificent view of the ocean. Staff is courteous and accommodating. A bit away from the main tourist spots.

My wife and I stayed at Villas de Jardin back in November 2018 on our honeymoon trip through the Seychelles, but looking at our notes and pictures, it feels like it was yesterday! The first thing you have to know is that the villa offers easily among the most amazing views I have every witnessed! The pool is a couple hundred metres off the villas but it is even more incredible and you can check out the villas themselves. There's nothing to fault - it is all PERFECT. Lounging at sunset in the pool will get you close ups of the delightful fruit bats, while morning chills on the terrace with the loungechairs is just paradisical. Okay, I admit it would have been even better if this was a fully fledged hotel with a restaurant (with this view!) and on-site service, rather than a rented villa. But even this way, we rarely lacked for anything. There are a couple of shops down the slope (by the way you ABSOLUTELY need a car if you book here) and a restaurant which I dont quite remember but seems to be called Del Place nowadays, is a short drive away. Having been on many beaches at this point, we welcomed the forest scenery, but if you're after a beach, then this might not be the best place for you - the closest adequate option is at Port Launey, at about a 10-15min drive to the northwest (but it's a pretty neat beach!). The staff is very kind and helpful and the house was really quiet. Overall, a stay we will always fondly remember!

I went there with my husband for our honeymoon and it was a pure delight. Some days we slept in and read books outside on the terrace bed and at night made dinner and had drinks. We stayed a week and had pretty active days driving to other areas of the island. The days we did not want to cook dinner, there is a fun restaurant near that we loved have dinner or at least an apero at. It is a quiet region and to go to some areas of the island you have to drive through windy roads through the forest, we LOVED it, maybe that isn't for everyone though. I would highly recommend the apartments and rent a car if you are staying there!
