We travelled as a family of three and had the top apartment with the best view out over the sea where it is safe to snorkel. It was very spacious and well appointed with two double-bed bedrooms with firm mattresses and a safe. Bedroom 1 has an ensuite Bedroom 2 has a shower room next door which is also accessible from the lounge There is a huge balcony with a table and six chairs where you can eat your breakfast watching the fishermen in their boats search the sea bed every morning. Fruit bats fly close by close enough to touch and even enjoy the banana tree in the garden. It is on a steep hill about 150 meters up a 1 in 4 hill so a car or some level of fitness is required. There are 3 pin 240V electric sockets (UK style) and plenty of them to charge your devices and there is also Wi-Fi in each apartment (free). It is about a 10 minute walk into town where there are shops and restaurants but no pavement some of the way so you will be close to the traffic on a busy(ish) road. There is also no lighting so a torch is essential if walking in at night. Solana can organise car rental for you at a good rate which I would recommend even though there is a bus stop at the bottom of the hill.
I stayed here for my 18 hour layover in Seychelles. I wish my layover was longer... this place was a pure gem. Solana arranged a pick up from the airport as I landed late from South Africa that day, and waited for my arrival to check-in. I couldn't believe how big the room was! The next day, I woke up to a beautiful ocean view. Breathtaking... I used to live in Hawaii and it was def better ;) Walked over to the beach in the morning and it was like a private beach - no one was there. Clear blue sky and clear blue water. I would definitely come back here with my bf next time!
I liked the B& B and would stay there again if I had a car to get around!! The beach is filled with seaweed six months of the year and is unswim-able!!!Going in the water makes you feel slimy!! The room was very nice and well equipped!! I like the people that run the place and the restaurant up the hill recommended by the owner was tasty and very reasonable!!
me and my wife stayed for just one night and it an amazing experience, and the host was amazing, it was the best hospitality i have ever experienced, she really brought the place alive,,,
We stayed there twice i.e. June 23* & July 04 - the 1st time* our flight came in late but the transfer Solana ('S') had arranged was waiting for us @ airport & so was S - warm towels & welcome drink at mid-night! COOL room & ditto on 4th when she also loaned us flippers/fins! Close to bus stop & too superb snorkeling spot & shops! She could not have been nicer (& ditto her daughter) & the view is out of this world! We'll be back!

Meh
Pricey, and not that great. Checkout is pretty ridiculous 10am. They charge for internet, despite the 75 euro price tag per room per night.

Good base
Fantastic welcome- Juliette couldn't have been more helpful. We had the last room available (and probably the smallest) but for our short stay it was fine. We were able to see the other apartments and they are spacious and well appointed. The block looks out over the beach, with a steep approach - like many other Seychelles properties. Anse Royale offers a bank, petrol station, several supermarkets and restaurants. We hired a car through the property, which they dropped off. Would like the chance to visit again.
Only stayed one night but the staff was extremely nice, helpful and very welcoming. We stayed in the small room with no sea view. Perfect accommodations for one night. Anything more I would recommend one of the sea view rooms. Otherwise it may be small for some people.
The apart hotel is great, all very well furnished and the owner of the place will do anything to make your stay memorable . The view is gorgeous from the big balcony. The acces to the beach is quite simple...2 mn walking. There are market and restaurant very close by.

OK hotel, but needs to get classier to be worth it
It's an OK hotel on an OK island. I wouldn't stay here any longer than a couple of days. Any recommendations by the hotel do feel like they're made to ultimately benefit the hotel (i.e. they get commission), so do your own research first. Nothing feels that genuine here. The atmosphere at this hotel sucks, but the view is beautiful. What you get for the price you pay is not really worth it. The hotel ought to make more of an effort to make it worth the money you pay. Management ought to be less nosey. The actual flat is quite nice though, even if the bed was the worst I've slept in in quite some time. The mattress is super hard.
Ett fantastiskt boende, nära till stranden Anse Royal. Om du vill utforska ön så hyr bil. Allt bokas av din hyresvärd enkelt.
Hyresvärden Solana är så hjälpsam på alla sätt, rummen rena och fräscha med en fantastisk utsikt över havet.
Een super plek voor een paar heerlijke dagen op Ma
Een super plek voor een paar heerlijke dagen op Mahe. De eigenaresse doet er alles aan om je te helpen en het naar je zin te maken. Alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig. Het uitzicht is om van weg te dromen. Werkelijk een prachtige plek met grote kamers!
Séjour d'une nuit avant de reprendre l'avion du retour. La location est bien placée pour rayonner vers le sud de l'île. Les locaux sont confortables, et le personnel très agréable. Toutefois notre chambre donnait au rez de chaussée sur l'entrée des lieux, ce qui coupe enlève beaucoup d'intimité, et ne donne pas vraiment envie de rester sur la terrasse. C'est je crois le seul logement qui n'a pas la vue magnifique sur la mer, mais nous n'avons pas payé très cher (pour les Seychelles).
Great location with stunning view of the sea. Beach just 2 minutes down the street and great for snorkeling. Excellent hotel for relaxing and just enjoying the scenery. The little town is a 10 minutes walk away where you have a couple of restaurants, grocery shop, apothecary etc. The staff and owners were very nice and helpful, one example; after 7 p.m. me and my wife were cooking when we suddenly ran out of gas. A quick call was enough and 5 minutes later the problem was fixed. Things like these are making you feel welcome and are giving you a great time. All in all I can fully agree with all the other positive reviews.
Wunderschönes Ambiente im Kolonialstil mit riesen Veranda. Vom Bett und sogar aus der Dusche hat man einen traumhaften Ausblick aufs Meer.
Sehr empfehlenswert!
Die Gastgeberin Frau Solana Boniface ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, bei allen Fragen rund um die Insel immer hilfsbereit.
Der Strand am Hotel ist einer der besten Schnorchelstrände.
Nous avons passé deux fois une nuit dans cet hôtel au cours de notre séjour aux Seychelles. Tout était parfait. La propriétaire a été très serviable, elle nous a cherché une voiture de location. Elle a pris le temps de discuter avec nous. Les chambres avec vue sur la mer sont superbes.
