Raffles Seychelles 5 stars

Unfortunately this was not the best 5 star hotel I’ve stayed in. I travel extensively for work as I am a management consultant, and I’ve stayed in hotels that have been far better in terms of service, quality of food and wine, and facilities that were not 5 star. The food was 3 stars at best, and there were severely limited gluten free options. The chef was only willing to accommodate a few items to make them gluten free. Secondly, my room reeked of cigarette smoke and when I asked to be placed in another villa they showed me a villa that was a downgrade from the one I was currently in, with an awful view. This service is completely unacceptable for a 5 star resort where I was paying 900$ a night. Thirdly, the spa service I received was awful. I got a gel manicure that is supposed to last 2 weeks and it chipped the same day. The floor boards on my villa deck were coming up, the paint on the railings was chipping off and I was served glassware with a chip in it at breakfast. There weren’t very many healthy food options and the wine by the glass was horrible. Overall this could be a beautiful resort but management really needs to work on a lot of things

The hotel could not have done better.Excellent staff,food and accommodation.

The stay was very good and special. The breakfast buffet was fantastic. Employees were very nice and attentionated at all time! We felt that we were special!. Very good Indian Buffet, nice people and service, Tasty food as well. We did noticed that the Butcher's night was desorganized in term of services. The meat itself served in your plate was good but some of the prepared meals with meat was not. We had to ask for the sauces 3 to 4 times. This is why We did rated a 8.... which is good already.

nice stay, only the staff needs to be more courteous

Unique style and facilities

My daughters and I have an annual ‘three musketeers reunion’, this year we chose Seychelles at the Raffle hotel. Our roof top villa was absolutely stunning from the view, our private plunge pool which we used daily and my bath with my magnificent view. All the staff were so personable and made it a point to be so accommodating wherever we went. Breakfast was a delight each morning and the selection changed daily which was so refreshing for a buffet. We loved all the daily activities the hotel offered. The massage room with the natural ocean breeze and waves was wonderful and I was so happy I took the time to experience this. My daughters loved going to feed the tortoises fresh bananas each day. A paradise that we didn’t want to end...thankful and blessed that we got to go...now we have memories and photographs for a lifetime!

great location, nice villas with privacy. Waiter service and food should be improved.

all in all it was a great stay. we celebrated 10 years wedding unniversary and allso my husbend's 40 years birthday. we got upgrade to full view of the ocean insted uf partial view and you allso put great cake for us and thank you for that. it could be more great if you could decorate the vila a liitle bit for our special event.. the viila and the food were great. few little things that were realy annoying: 1) the payment for water in the evening- why do you charge for this? it is givven for us for free duriing the day and it is not even mineral water..it felt petty 2) there are slippers/sandels in the room for our use doring the stay- it is not one time slippers otherwise yow would put it in nylon and five this for free to the guests. it is a liittle bit repulsive and not to mention unhealty to use the same slippers that other guest used before us. 3)on chek out when we got the detailed bill - there was peymant regarding the rehabilition of the corals and if we did not asked about this the employee that gave us the biil he would charge us allso for this without our knowledge!- your employees should explain beforehand about the biil and mainly about thinfs you add in the bill like this that is like a d donation and do'nd require. 4) you have nice things to buy in the store but things, like the sea bag that was allso in the villa, were really expencive and excessive price.

Raffles Praslin is one of the best resorts we have stayed at. Everyone in the family (two young kids) had an amazing time. Beaches are pristine, service is excellent, food, kids club - hard to find any faults.

Most romantic gateway!

The hotel manager made sure every thing was arranged before we arrived. A better job cold be done about the lizards. Every thing els was very good.

This was the best resort we ever stayed. It was full of nature and beaches were fantastic

As returning guests are expectations where extremely high, we were not disappointed. Delicious food, superb service, spotless room and facilities.

Great Experience, exceptional service, great architecture/resort, unforgettable stay!

Raffles Seychelles is one of the most beautiful properties I have visited in Seychelles. stunning location, beautiful villas, great food, nice beach, friendly people. There isn't one single thing that I would point out that needs improvement.
