Mahé Island, Seychelles hotel rooms at the Independent

"Truly excellent and a slice of paradise. One of the best places we have stayed at. We all loved it and if we get back there we will unquestionably stay there again."

"I have never experienced much pleasant staff. Always courteous and very willing to help. Highly commendable and a lovely relaxing property. "

"The property is absolutely divine. Not too big and never felt overcrowded and the villas are spacious and private, also very comfortable and modern. Older property but excellent upkeep. Rustic and tropical and just one with nature. Whenever there was an issue and usually something simple like a blown bulb it was sorted right away. The staff are extremely attentive and friendly always going above and beyond to ensure our experience was world class! From the special anniversary dinner to the private dining experience, the curation of our island experience, the early check in and the late check out. Even the several brews of ginger lemon honey and rum provided when we were under the weather made our stay so personable and accommodating and just so absolutely blissful!!!! Congratulations to the team and our deepest gratitude for making our getaway so special and memorable. Much love to you all!!!!"

"Love it!! Will be back! I enjoy the custom service and hospitality given to us at the pool side bar by Thomas as well as Joshua at the Creole restaurant, Both were awesome!!"

"Loved it"

"Amazing stay. "

"We were in the villa, two adults, two kids 2 and 6. The place is really great. Rosita, who is managing the place was super helpful, suggesting and organizing our activities."

"Wonderful stay in Mahé and this resort was superb. Lovely restaurants, plenty to do as it’s a large resort. Staff are incredibly friendly, wouldn’t hesitate to come back here in the future!"

"We had a great experience here - we did a split stay as visiting another island in between, the team recognised us when we returned and had prepared our room for an early arrival which we really appreciated. The concierge (Debbie) was brilliant, really friendly and engaging every time we met with her and able to make good restaurant suggestions, helped with early airport taxis and sorting a rum tasting. We didn’t stay long enough to do any activities but seemed like lots of options available, the beach restaurant is cool with a nice team and good food but I didn’t like that you had to pay extra (1000SCR) if you wanted to use a lounger.
