The location

Everything was excellent - it exceeded expectations

Stayed in February 2025

Quiet, on the beach. Close to restaurants.

It definitely needs some TLC as looking a little tired and ACs need changing for sure

The location and the colonial building and the staff there are exceptional

The villa was charming. It was the only one of its kind in the area and many tourists walking along the beach stopped to take pictures of it. The feeling of the 30s of the 20th century - with old but very well saved furniture, old photographs, interior items. Good size, clean pool. Great breakfast. Very pleasant villa owner. We had a late flight and were kindly allowed to stay in the villa territory until the evening. We had a very pleasant stay at this villa and if we ever come back to Mahe, Seychelles, we will definitely choose this beautiful place!

The location was superb. Close enough to do whatever you want but secluded enough to feel relaxed and isolated.

- Bathroom situation, just a thin curtain offering no privacy whatsoever. Nice bathtub, probably best for a couple, as long as you do not mind peeing with smb else in the room. - Windows in the room towards the corridor with the light always on. - No toiletries, a hodge-podge of varying bottles, sizes, looks, quite cheap for the feel of the hotel - No milk or sugar left for the 2 capsules of coffee left each day. No tea or other drinks besides one bottle of water that was not filled every day - Cleaning schedule - while we were still in and out of the room so we were constantly in each other’s way - Internet although it working well the first couple of days was very unstable

- Location, beach and closeness to restaurants and bars - Hotel setup, pool, room look and size, balcony towards the ocean - The deputy manager was lovely

Not much to say, actually. Maybe the Wifi could be a little stronger in the room, but really not a big deal.

Superb boutique hotel in an exceptional location, litterally on the beach of Beau Vallon. Just cross the garden with the pool, open the gate, and you are on the beach, 20 meters from the water at 30 °C ! Very friendly and at the same time discreet staff. Each morning, our room was cleaned up while we were hzvbing breakfast. We had a Deluxe Ocean View room which was really large, with large ensuite bathroom and nice terrace. There are only 7 rooms in the hotel (plus some in the adjacent villas), so you really feel more like in a luxurious guesthouse than in a hotel. We had diner buffet one night in the hotel, which was really good. Everything is made locally in the open kitchen. There are lots of places to dine out on the beachfront of Beau Vallon, for all budgets.

The only 2 things why i rated this stay 8/10 is the AC, we faced some issues regarding the AC it was cooling but also it was leaking sometimes and the fan is so noisy, the second thing its the bed and the mattress, its not comfortable and the mattress its so slim which will you will not feel comfortable. These are only the 2 things and i hope they will fix it cause we definitely gonna go back there .

Location is more than perfect, just to steps to the most of the bars and restaurants, the property its amazing and the staff also, Mr.Petr he helped us with early check in . Overall i like it and i give it 8/10

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Chateau Elysium during the Seychelles Maritime Week, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, the warm hospitality of the staff made me feel welcome and at home. The property itself is stunning, with beautifully designed rooms that offer breathtaking views of the lush surroundings and the ocean. Each morning, I was treated to a spectacular sunrise that set the perfect tone for the day. The amenities at Chateau Elysium were top-notch. I particularly enjoyed the tranquil pool area, which provided a perfect escape after busy days filled with maritime activities. Location-wise, Chateau Elysium is conveniently situated, making it easy to explore nearby attractions and beaches. Whether you want to relax on the sandy shores or engage in water sports, everything is just a stone's throw away. Overall, my stay at Chateau Elysium exceeded my expectations. The combination of luxurious accommodations, attentive service, and beautiful surroundings made it the ideal retreat during my time in Seychelles. I can’t wait to return!

- more like an AirBnB with a caretaker - one type of breakfast daily (make sure you ask for cheese and meats otherwise they will not serve it for you) - no TV’s in the rooms - no minibar

- right at the beach - not over crowded - close to grocery stores and restaurants - very clean - furniture is beautiful - swimming pool is pristine

The mattress is a little firm.

Wonderful building right on the beach. The pool is large and beautiful. The staff is very welcoming and makes you feel at home. Breakfast on the terrace with a view that is breathtaking.

proximity to beach, spacious room, polite and friendly

Stayed in June 2024

Several facilities in the room were not repaired. The safe didn’t work The curtains are heavy and transparent to light in the morning.are stuck and not moving. There is NESPRESSO machine but not anything else like tea suger and milk. They serve you if you ask. With a little improve this can become a 5 star boutique hotel - now it is not value the money due mainly the room maintenance

Location Swimming pool By the beach Breakfast Large room

Stayed in May 2024

Room looked a bit tired and could have done with a fresh coat of paint and some new curtains. Manager could have been more helpful regarding day trips.

Location was great being on the beach. Swimming pool was also enjoyable especially in the hot weather. Breakfast was enjoyable on the verandah.

Stayed in May 2024

The see through curtain dividing the room from the bathroom, no door to separate then, and the lack of a TV set or even a radio.

Just a footstep away from the beach and within walking distance to restaurants and the local market.

Stayed in January 2024

Overall it doesn’t feel like a 5* hotel and it is too expensive for what you get.

Great location just by the beach and next to restaurants, only 15min car drive to Victoria. Breakfast was nice and room is spacious.
