Guest reviews for Chalets Des Vacances
"Very good location - close to nice beaches and restaurant. It’s very peaceful. Apartment is big and spacious, kitchen has well equipment. Owner helped us by all of our wishes."

"Everything was just wonderful in this place. We had a rest as a family: me, my husband and two children. Administrator Adam was attentive to us, treated us to dinner, fed our children delicious pancakes. Here it felt like we were at home - it was so cozy and calm. Thank you very much to everyone involved in this guest house for our best vacation!"

"Mervin & Adam did their best to make our stay formidable ! Helped out on renting a car on a last minute. Offered a meal and bottle for new year's eve (how kind!) and made sure we could have a late check out before heading for our flight. They also gave recommandation on the island. They are doing their best to make your stay awesome. The place is very quiet (a few dogs and chicken in the neiberhoud, but not on the property.), and nice view on the moutains. Only thing to consider : You will definitely need a car. Great beach are close by (Takamaka & Intendance), but by foot it would not be that pleasant. All in all, if the place suits you, don't hesitate !"

"This accommodation is beautifully presented and great value with a fully kitted kitchen, living room area, bedroom and bathroom. We got more for our money than we did anywhere else we stayed in The Seychelles. Special shout out to Mervin as well, epitomises the 'couldn't do enough for you' attitude with lots of lovely little touches to help us out despite ours being just a one night stay before we flew out. In case you are worried about the location in the jungle the incense and fragrances on site did a great job keeping mosquitoes at bay. Walking out to bird song is also a treat We ate at the La Redoute restaurant a one minute walk away and that was great too - brave the bat dishes if you dare. Our only regret is not being able to stay longer."
"It isn't difficult at all but if you are driving, then you need to get up a couple small hills to get there. Parking is ample and includes cover though."
"The hosts are amazing and trying to help you with everything. Marvin and Adam are always up for a quick talk and really friendly. Also offering some fresh fruit from time to time. Super nice to try fresh jack fruit and freshly picked Bananas. The Red Snapper they prepare is a exceptional 😍"
"The buildings are a little bit older and that you could see but the owner wants to improve it."
"Marvin and Adam were wonderful hosts, always trying to guess pur needs and anticipate them. Their mission is to welcome guests as at home and you could feel it. In addition Adam is a great cook and I highly recommend booking any meal with him. It will be much cheaper than in a restaurant but of may be even better quality. The place is in remote area so a car is advisable. I specifically enjoy the closiness to the jungle and a morning swim in a swimming pool. Nearby you will find the arguably most beautiful beaches on Mahé - Anse Takamaka and Intendence. The western beaches are much better in my opinion, there are less people and prices are also lower in take-aways, almost twice as lower."
"Our specific appartment was facing the sun in the morning and it got hot very quickly after sunrise. The air con is in the bedroom which is great but the kitchen and bathroom have fans and you need to get used to the heat. Other appartments may have not this problem"
"First, I confirm every positive comment that I read about this place! Spacious and comfortable apartments in a beautiful setting, but it is really Adam and Marvin’s constant availability and kindness that makes this place truly unique. On a separate note, I was served 3 dinners for a similar price to these of the nearby restaurant, only it tasted better and the portions were overwhelmingly generous!!"

"Nice place. Reconstruction is slowly running (no noise, do not worry). Place is wonderful, I believe that in next few years it will be game changer in the area. Very nice owners and cleaning behavior. Nice dinner. You can watch fruit bats each evening."
"Still missing direct access to Takamaka beach wich would totally change position of these apartments. Currently you can go by car."
"I fully endorse this property. It's an amazing location with even more amazing host. We were warmly welcomed. The host recommended the most beautiful spots on the island, helped us purchase bus tickets, took us to the currency exchange office, and showed us the nearest shops. The apartments are both spacious and large, and offer stunning views of the jungle. Located close to nature and beautiful beaches."

"An amazing view from the balcony, the apartment is well equipped and very affordable for this area. It was quiet and peaceful. 5 minute drive to Anse Petite (but you have to leave the car at the hotel parking and walk 10 min to the beach) and 5 minutes to Anse Soleil (can drive almost to the beach). About 40 min from the airport. We spent a week there and truly enjoyed it. The hosts are super friendly and helped us a lot with bookings, taxis, appliances etc. They also brought us fruit from their garden, which was very nice. Would definitely come back!"

"Excellent modern apartment in the SW of Mahe! Perfect setup to explore the area from Grand Answer to Answer Royale. Strong stable WiFi. Fully stocked kitchen. Good AC to cool the apartment down from the Hot and Humid condition outside. Comes with a washer that was very helpful for cleaning swimming wear and sweaty clothes. Plenty of private parking for the 4 units. Our favorite was the super comfy bed! Slept like babies. Therese was an awesome Host ensuring that we had a great stay. Thanks so much Therese! 😘😘😘 We will stay again when we return to Mahe."
"View is stunning and accommodation was lovely. Beds comfy and shower great."
"The property was clean and had a working AC, although a bit noisy. A nice bonus was a washing machine that we desperately needed by this time. Quite a nice and green view from the terrace although situated right by the main road. Getting there is a short walk uphill with no sidewalk. The nearest shop is just 100m down the road."

"Marie was absolutely amazing. The local housekeeper was awesome too. Never had such a great experience at a booking.com location"
Andrew Phoenix Apartments
"The real question will be, what I didn't like? Because everything from the very beginning was 1000/10, Michael and his wife were really helpful from the beginning till the end, helping us in every single step we were doing on the country as well as their colleague from the villa. We will repeat for sure and we are already recommending the villa to many of our friends!"

"Charles is an excellent host. The place is exactly as its pictures. It on a hill overlooking the ocean. You can see planes coming in. The home is full of love. There is air conditioning in the bedroom and a full service outdoor kitchen and living space. You will need a car & he has parking available."
