Yağmurlu bir haftaya denk geldik. Bu nedenle plajdan yararlanamadık. Ada içerinde alternatif etkinlikler düzenlenebilirdi.

Lovely and special honeymoon experience
Pros:

It was an absolutely lovely destination for our honeymoon. They upgraded our room to one with a private access to the beach and decorated the bed. We stayed for three days and our days were full. Between kayaking to Moyenne Island, walking on the sand in low tide toward Long Island, snorkeling, walking around Round Island and swimming in our private pool, nothing was missing. Food was good and the staff were very generous and kind.

Romance, luxury, seclusion. Incredible scenery.
Pros:

A beautiful island, with incredible views everywhere you look. We stayed in a superior bungalow and it was outstanding. A mix of sleek exterior and terrace and traditional, antique interiors.

The staff were faultless. From the Sundowners beach bar, the restaurant and main lobby - all exceptional. Communication was via WhatsApp and staff were always fast and helpful in responding.

This is a place of quiet luxury and seclusion. Perfect for couples. We loved it and hope to visit again.

Cons:

As others have mentioned, all Seychelles beaches are (rightly) open to the public. So there are regular trips from locals and tourists. This is mainly from around 10.30-3.45. It wasn’t a problem for us, we liked the vibe. But also outside of these times, it felt even more special to have the beaches largely to ourselves (pro tip, sunrise at the sand bar is so good it’s almost otherworldly).
