Surfers Beach Self Catering Chalets

It was not our first time staying at Surfers Beach Self Catering Chalets and it won't be the last - it is an excellent all-round experience. We would say that it is a far better experience and overall deal than staying in some of Mahe's so-called Luxury hotels - certainly from a spaciousness, cleanliness, comfort and value for money perspective. The chalets offer a spacious bathroom, living room and kitchen plus a very comfortable large bedroom. You can tell the chalets were developed with great attention to detail including the exterior which boasts a spacious deck for cocktails at sundown looking out over the ocean or just generally relaxing. This is all complemented by the beachfront Surfers Restaurant just a few steps away. My partner and I were visiting from the UK and were very pleased to find Surfer's charms remain fully intact since we last visited pre-Pandemic. Thank you Surfers for a brilliant stay - again!

I write only after three months because I'd not add anything to previous reviews : the location, the size of the rooms, the cleanliness, the equipment, the kindness of all the staff are perfect.But today I read a review that left me dumbfounded and that doesn't describe the place where I stayed. I cannot believe it' s the same chalets. I hope it's a mistake, and confirm they are worth the maximum score for me, and I hope to return as soon as possible.

Cannot fault the experience at Surfers Beach. Richard and his team treated us so well and the accomodation was spacious and spotless. I will never forget sitting on the veranda sipping cocktails and listening to the waves every night. Everything in the chalet worked as it should and we did not switch on the television once for our whole stay of 13 days. The cleaning staff were particurally nice and efficient. The air conditioning and fans were highly effective but most of all the great space and cleanliness of the chalets made our stay so relaxing. If you are visiting the Seychells, this is the place to stay.

We had a great time there! Both the owner and the staff were very kind and helpful! Shout out to Lisa eho helped us a lot! Very clean room with nice view from the porch, beach and restaurant were for 2 minutes walk. Thank you for everything, we already plan our way back again sometime!

My wife and I stayed here for a month on the South side of the Island with it's wide open spaces and totally unspoilt by the commerciliasation in the North. Our chalet was very well appointed & fully serviced, right on Surfers Beach with their restuarant right there for meals or sundowners etc. Good internet connectivity with very peaceful surroundings. Our hosts Richard and Marle went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable and happy and were enjoying our stay. We would not hesitate in recomending them and the excellent value for money that they offer. Many exciting other places of interest and excellent restaurants etc close by.

Surfers Beach was perfect! We had had a (lovely but) somewhat bumpy stay on Praslin involving a hospital visit, a damaged rental car, and a few other complications, so when we arrived at Surfers Beach we were ready to just chill. This was the perfect place to do it. It was wonderful to just sit on our porch, stare at the ocean, and watch the fruit bats fly by. The rooms aren’t fancy, but they’re spacious and comfortable and have everything you need. The beach was very pretty; it was great for lounging and we saw people snorkeling past the reef maybe 30 yards offshore. The restaurant is really good and the staff were friendly and efficient. We kind of wish we’d spent a little more of our time in the Seychelles at Surfers Beach and we’d go back in a heartbeat.

We stayed here for 3 days. We had a lovely time. The chalets are spacious for a family of three, and whilst not luxurious, they are very nice and have everything we needed. Including a corkscrew! The view is lovely, and even the steep walk up the hill is good to work off some of the calories gained in the Surfers Beach restaurant. My son 11 yrs loved running around the property to find and pet the many cats, and to visit the giant tortoises. The owner Richard was very nice and extremely helpful. The location is good for the airport and to get across to the restaurants and beaches on the other side of the island. The only minor issue we had was the shower was alittle cold in the mornings, but still usable. The bathroom was really very nice. We will definitaly stay again.

Estuvimos alojados en Surfers Beach en noviembre de 2022 y después de haber estado en otros dos alojamientos en Seychelles para nosotros fue el peor de todos y el más caro. La localización está bien si buscas paz y tranquilidad puesto que está alejado de la ciudad pero aun así bastante cerca en coche de cualquier punto de interés en la isla. La propiedad tiene parking lo que es muy útil. Para nosotros el problema residió en que la casa era bastante antigua y muy oscura. Tiene vistas al mar que quedan parcialmente tapadas por las rejas que hay puestas y para las que no te dejan llave. La cama fue la más pequeña que tuvimos en todo el viaje y no nos resultó cómoda y la colcha, cojines y mobiliario parecían sacados de una película antigua. El baño era muy grande pero bastante desangelado. La cocina tenía una salida a la parte de atrás de las casas con vistas a una montaña y en la al salir había una alfombra que resbalaba nada más pisarla, estuvimos a punto de caernos varias veces hasta que decidimos quitarla. Te dejan unos sobres de café instantáneo, té y monodosis de crema para el café que en nuestro caso estaban caducadas. La playa que hay delante del hotel no es una playa de arena con baño fácil y agradable ya que con marea baja tienes metros y metros de coral tapado por dos palmos de agua y no es posible bañ****, tuvimos que coger el coche cada día. Es importante considerar que para ir a la playa desde el hotel hay que bajar una cuesta muy-muy empinada y que luego hay que subirla. El wifi va bastante lento y si quieres ver vídeos en Youtube o alguna peli en Netflix se te cuelga y hace rebuffering cada cierto tiempo, si vas a enviar mensajes o emails funciona aceptablemente. Si necesitas hacer un check-out más tarde de las 10:00 de la mañana te van a cobrar un fee bastante elevado, tengan o no tengan gente entrando después y aunque no vayan a limpiar la habitación hasta el día siguiente. Para nosotros la comunicación con la propiedad fue incómoda ya que nos dijeron que el día de nuestra salida no habría nadie allí porque era domingo por lo que recogimos, dejamos las llaves donde nos dijeron y nos fuimos para el aeropuerto, pero recibí un mensaje al poco de salir diciendo que les debía el dinero del late check-out, cobro que pensé que harían en la tarjeta de crédito que dejamos como depósito en el check-in pero que ellos dijeron que no tenían. No me gustó en general la actitud y mucho menos el mensaje, sobra decir que pagamos inmediatamente, si hubiésemos querido no pagar tampoco lo hubiésemos hecho después. Para mi, de todo lo que vi y probé en Seychelles, este alojamiento sitio no merece la pena por ese precio y no volvería.

Tranquillità, posizione magnifica, eccellente cura per questi spaziosi, perfettamente accessoriati e puliti chalets. Accoglienza amichevole in questo splendido angolo di Mahe con la bellissima spiaggia sotto casa dove trovate anche un ottimo ristorante. Se volete, giustamente, visitare l'isola trovate un comodo parcheggio se noleggiate una macchina o, in alternativa, avete la fermata del bus a 50 metri. ( Per noi ha un unico difetto...da quando abbiamo scoperto questo angolo di paradiso non siamo stati capaci di andare da un'altra parte del mondo, come facevamo prima, e torniamo sempre qua...questa è stata la nona volta dal 2018!)
