    I enjoy walking and climbing but if you need to avoid stairs, request lower accommodation closer to the common area buildings

    Spacious, plush villas each hidden within the beautiful natural hillside forest equipped with everything you need to relax in comfort

    The price could be improved, even if the hotel is wonderful and really well maintained, the prices for the room I got seemed a bit high for a short stay.

    1) The staff is super friendly and always willing to help and solve any issues which you might come across with. 2) Breakfast: Excellent, really complete. 3) Dinner: Excellent, my congratulations to the chef.

    You pay 10 euros per night for internet, the paid-for internet didn't work most times. If you wanted a free internet you had to always come and sit at the reception.

    The Island and the facilities are very good

    The restaurant is not diverse, has few options, and has no nightlife, and the spa is modest. The place is suitable for relaxation, but the options are limited

    A beautiful resort, but we had difficulty walking because it is on a mountain and we always had to go up and down to the restaurant and reception. The villas are large and beautiful, made from wood, but few of them overlook the sea and most of them overlook the garden.

    As everywhere in the Seychelles the trips were very expensive. The food was much better than we expected from other reviews, some of the meals were very good, but some were just ok. I would have loved some of the local curries but these rarely seemed to be on the dinner menu.

    Fabulous quiet and secluded location with great snorkelling and beautiful infinity pool and beach, yet very close to the airport so very easy to get to. Lovely secluded villa in the rainforest with outdoor shower. Great service including golf buggy rides to the villas at any time, invisible housekeeping, very helpful and immediately responsive reception staff, great boat taxi and some very friendly waiters. Limited phone and Wi-Fi coverage actually turned out to be a blessing rather than a pain. We all talked and read a lot more and slept much better as a result, but the Wi-Fi was there at the beach and pool near reception for when we needed it.

    One of the paddles for paddle boarding was a bit broken, and my husband had to use the kayak paddles which kinda worked. Food is alright, average, but better than I expected reading some of the reviews.

    The rooms are beautiful and the place is very calm. The staff was very nice and friendly for the most part. There are paddle boards and kayaks you can borrow for free. We also had great massages. We had a great time!

    There's only wifi in the reception area, and the water in the shower could have been a bit hotter (probably warm enough for most people though, especially during hotter and peak travelling times)

    The location, island, staff and services were superb. We felt the very personal and approachable service and loved our stay there and that we got to know the staff members a bit. The tours we were able to book were amazing too and it was all so smooth and uncomplicated. Everyone was extremely friendly and made us feel special. The villa was great too.

    the food was very disappointing considering a high price for half board. dinners were especially average with tasteless cabbage or lentil soup. The originality of flavours and creativity in the kitchen was much higher in other hotels we stayed in.

    great staff at reception, we were on a honeymoon and got upgraded to a fantastic villa with a jacuzzi which made our stay very memorable and special. Great to have kayaks free of charge too and a National park around to explore.

    Really liked the boutique vibe of Cerf Island resort. As there were a limited number of villas it felt more exclusive and was generally less busy than the other places we’d been. The sunset helipad cocktails are a must! The snorkelling and kayaking was also great.
