Guest Reviews

• Alvin (10/5): Le rêve, dans un cadre de rêve - Un séjour de rêve, personnel, lieu, nourriture, tranquillité, douceur de vivre et de se reposer..... Rien
• dan-thu (10/5): Magique - Accueil personnalisé par Benjamin avec qui il a été très agréable de discuter. L emplacement est magnifique, bien agencé, paisible, privilégié. Une bulle magique. Le logement est superbe, très bien équipé. Ça a été difficile de retourner sur Mahé Trop court séjour :)

• stefano (9/5): Splendido resort a conduzione familiare sull'isola di Silhouette - Location splendida ed esclusiva nell'isola privata di Silhouette. Qui la natura e la pace sono incredibili. Nell'isola ci sono due resort: questo e un Hilton. La Belle Tortue è a conduzione familiare; questo non inficia la qualità del soggiorno che rimane sempre di alto livello. Anzi, l'atmosfera è molto intima e tranquilla e non si è mai più di 10 persone nelle zone comuni. Tutte le stanze sono direttamente sulla spiaggia o a pochissimi metri. Consiglio vivamente di mangiare presso la struttura: ottima cucina francese accompagnata da una eccellente e ben fornita carta dei vini. La camera è molto ampia e ben curata, in particolare il bagno è nuovo. Tutto molto pulito. Servizio impeccabile, il letto viene rifatto più volte al giorno qualora sia stato usato Aria condizionata molto rumorosa e poco performante, questo purtroppo ha inciso sulla qualità del sonno. Un posto così bello meriterebbe che si investisse su questo aspetto
• Milla (10/5): An amazing place for nature lovers and food enthusiasts - La Belle Tortue is a beautifully maintained hotel with a perfect location for both a beach holiday and a nature getaway. The food is excellent, and the service is friendly and attentive. Our room was cozy and spotlessly clean, adding to the overall comfort of the stay. The island offers wonderful opportunities for long walks along the beach as well as scenic nature trails. Make sure to bring your hiking shoes! Nothing, I loved everything
• Finja (10/5): - Wir waren 2 Nächte im Belle Tortue und haben dort unseren 5. Hochzeitstag verbracht. Auf der Insel gibt es nur zwei Hotels. Im direkten Vergleich ist das Belle Tortue viel persönlicher, deutlich ruhiger und sogar günstiger als das große, eher anonyme Hilton. Genau das hat den Aufenthalt so besonders gemacht. Wir wurden direkt vom Boot abgeholt und die kurze Strecke zur Unterkunft gefahren. Dort haben uns der Chef persönlich und die Concierge begrüßt und sich viel Zeit genommen. Uns wurde alles zur Insel erklärt. Wo man gut wandern kann, wo man besser nicht alleine unterwegs ist und welche Aktivitäten möglich sind. Den ganzen Tag über kann man an der Bar frische Cocktails oder Kaffee bestellen. Direkt vor der Unterkunft liegt ein Korallenriff, perfekt zum Schnorcheln. Abends gibt es ein Menü. Französische Küche trifft kreolische Zutaten. Sehr hochwertig und extrem lecker. Die Weine sind etwas teurer, aber passend zur Qualität. Das gesamte Personal ist unglaublich herzlich und aufmerksam. Das Frühstück ist à la carte und wirklich hervorragend. Pfannkuchen, geräucherter Fisch, frische Zutaten und sogar eine frische Kokosnuss zum Trinken. Pro Person gibt es täglich eine kostenlose Wasserflasche, Kaffee ist auf dem Zimmer inklusive. Zu unserem Hochzeitstag haben wir eine private Bootstour für vier Stunden gebucht. Die Concierge hat alles organisiert. Ein Boot nur für uns mit zwei Skippern. Schnorcheln, Sonne genießen und zum Sonnenuntergang Champagner und geräucherter Fisch. Wir wurden trotz der kurzen Distanz immer zum Boot gebracht und wieder abgeholt. Am Abend gab es ein romantisches Special-Menü bei Kerzenlicht, ganz privat in einer dekorierten Ecke. Lobster-Menü, köstlich und perfekt inszeniert. Da wir von Silhouette nach Praslin weiterreisen wollten und nicht über Mahé fliegen wollten, haben wir einen Helikopterflug gebucht. Auch das wurde komplett von der Unterkunft organisiert. Alles lief reibungslos.
• dominique (10/5): -
• Torsten Fred (9/5): - Die Lage Das private Ambiente Die Unterkunft Die Küche Zu wenig Sicht auf das Meer vom Restaurant (einfach 2-3 grosse Palmblätter entfernen) Personal im Restaurant nuschelt sehr (schlecht gesprochenes Englisch)
• Sigal (9/5): An amazing and unique hotel in a beautiful island. - All the facilities are excellent and made with a lot of thought. The beach is amazing. The staff is extremely nice. There is nothing I did not like.
• Sabine (10/5): -
• Gordon (8/5): Excellent location and friendly staff - Close to jetty and diving center and within 20min walk of all the restaurants on the island, friendly staff, quiet and comfortable, clean room, very spacious with balcony Too dim lighting in the evening, especially for reading books and walking out at night on muddy sandy paths after heavy rain, on-site restaurant menu offers few alternative options and food portion size is below average
• Silvia (9/5): Paradise - Beautiful location, very relaxing atmosphere, great staff, and extraordinary chef!!! Nothing
• Beatrice (10/5): -
• Daniel (8/5): -
• Hadas (7/5): סה"כ חוויה טובה. אי מדהים ופראי! - ג'קוזי ובריכה טובים, נוף מדהים. ארוחת שף בערב טובה ומעניינת - הצליח לגרום לדג (ג'וב פיש) להרגיש כמעט כמו פרגית. כמעט כל הפעילויות יש לתאם מראש חוץ מארוחת בוקר וצהריים ליד הבריכה ביקשתי אומלט עם גבינה וירקות, פעם אחת שרפו, פעם שניה מלוח מדי - תבקשו מקושקשת בסלט מלפפון ועגבניה יש שמן מוזר נכנסים לחדר כמה פעמים ביום לסדר ולנקות, בלי התראה מראש ומשאירים פתוח
• Alina (10/5): Absolut perfekt - Es war alles rundum perfekt. So viel Liebe zum Detail, das Essen ist Weltklasse und das Personal sehr freundlich. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt und können es jedem empfehlen. Da es wenige Zimmer gibt, liegt das Hauptaugenmerk wirklich auf dem Wohlbefinden der Gäste. 10/10, wir werden wieder kommen! Alles war absolut perfekt!
• nadine (9/5): -
• Lina (8/5): We had a wonderful stay in a spacious, comfortable room with great service and beautiful surrounding - The room was very spacious, with plenty of storage and a beautiful view of the sea. We especially appreciated the welcome chocolates, which were delicious, as well as the good selection in the minibar. The Wi-Fi connection in the room worked very well, and the à la carte breakfast was tasty with a great variety to choose from. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Beautiful beaches are located nearby, and snorkeling is possible directly from the shore (water shoes are recommended as it can be rocky). Bottled water was provided daily, and it is possible to rent snorkeling equipment, although we brought our own. The airport pick-up service, available for an extra fee, worked perfectly. The island itself is incredibly exciting and unspoiled, offering many great hikes and opportunities to enjoy nature On the downside, while the bed was cozy, it was much too soft for our preference. The air conditioning unit in our room was very loud, even at the lowest fan setting. The balcony was unfortunately not swept during our stay, and the Wi-Fi signal did not reach the beach, which can be inconvenient if you do not have a local SIM card
• Pierre (10/5): À refaire ! - Moment inoubliable dans ce bel établissement idéalement placé à proximité de la plage ! Le personnel de l’hôtel est au petits soins et la nourriture très savoureuse ! Carte de vins et champagne au top !
• Michael (10/5): Außergewöhnlich tolles Boutique Hotel - klein aber fein! - Wir waren für sieben Übernachtungen (all inklusive) dort und haben es keinen Tag bereut! Es war alles sehr gepflegt und sauber. Das Hotel, insbesondere Restaurant und das Team sind außergewöhnlich gut, extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend und lesen einem zuweilen die Wünsche von den Lippen ab. Es war ein Bilderbuch Urlaub, Wie im Paradies, und wie man es sich nicht schöner wünschen kann. Natürlich trägt auch die Insel Silhouette zum gesamten Ambiente bei ;-). Bei der Gelegenheit, vielen lieben Dank an das ganze Team, dass sich hervorragend um uns gekümmert und einen tollen Urlaub beschert hat. Das Essen, Gerichte, Getränke und der Service sind von Morgens bis Abends außergewöhnlich und auf einem top Level. Wir werden definitiv wiederkommen!
• Cyrille (9/5): Un hôtel calme et de grande qualité sur une île authentique et propice à la randonnée. - L’accueil et l’ambiance sont exceptionnels. Les chambres sont très agréables et la restauration de très grande qualité. Rien
• Eric (10/5): Une expérience très exclusive dans un cadre préservé - Un peu à l'écart du circuit habituel au Seychelles, Silhouette présente un cadre très préservé. la faune marine est abondante et la végétation luxuriante. Dans ce cadre, La Belle Tortue propose une expérience très exclusive. Le service est réellement haut de gamme, le déjeuner copieux et le diner digne d'un étoilé Michelin. Enfin, toute l'équipe est à votre écoute et soucieuse de votre très grand confort.
• akhilesh (10/5): Best place to stay and eat in seychelles - Everything. Food, staff, ambience. Nothing to dislike
• inocencia (10/5): -

• Mark (10/5): An extraordinary experience at a truly special hotel. - An extraordinary experience - thanks to Benjamin and his team. From being met at the quayside on arrival to being waved off at the end of the stay they couldn't have done more to make the stay enjoyable. Would recommend the veranda rooms that are just a few steps away from an idyllic beach with snorkelling a short swim away. We borrowed bikes to tour the Island and did some of the walking routes from the hotel. We would recommend visiting the Island Conservation Society office - incredibly helpful and interesting. The evening meal every day was top quality French cuisine based on the catch of the day. All in all one of our most memorable stays at a hotel. Nothing
• Megan (9/5): Superb -
• Miguel (10/5): A true gem in the Seychelles - The food was exceptionally good and better than we have had in many top restaurants in the world. All the staff were friendly and assisted wherever possible to make our stay great Property was great but the room we had 107 could do with an additional light above the bathroom mirror to make shaving etc easier
• Serhiy (9/5): A small cosy jem on the beach of peaceful ocean with professional charming stuff and amazing food -
• Margaret (10/5): Exceptional - Every detail large or small was taken care of. All the staff was amazing. Food fabulous. Nothing
• Charles (7/5): Supreme location. Great staff. - Breakfast is good. Location is brilliant. Room was good. Staff were very good. I respect the style of dinner cuisine. However night after night with no choice - it is a bit much. Fortunately all our meals were not at the hotel. If there is tea and coffee provided - surely milk would be provided as well? The Internet is very slow and erratic. The Wifi coverage is terrible. There should be one Wifi and it should cover the beach as well. Consider Starlink - it is good. Or a higher capacity local operator. Noisy airconditioner - could not turn the fan low enough to be quiet.
• Morel (10/5): Perfect - The property was superb and the staff were excellent. The location was perfect and quiet. The food were delectable all prepared by a Top Chief. Absolutely nothing. It was paradise.
• Fabienne (10/5): Le paradis existe - Je n’ai passé que trois jours et deux nuits, mais cet endroit est le paradis. Les gérants et les employés sont souriants et sympathiques. je vous conseille cet endroit qui est totalement paisible.
• Angelika (10/5): The place to be if you want to stay in paradise 💕 Thank you Benjamin and team - All of this lovely boutique hotel -
• Patrick (10/5): - La Belle Tortue is a very quiet and small Hotel. The Restaurant was absolutely exceptional.
• Christine (10/5): - Very relaxed, in a beautiful setting. Staff very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious
• Rudolf (10/5): - Familiäre Atmosphäre, wunderbares Essen, einfach einzigartiger Platz!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Fantastic place to get away from it all, with a lovely beach and wonderful food
