Guest Reviews
- Katie (10/5): - We loved our little bungalow - lovely inside and outside. We stayed on Mahe for two days and ate all our meals at the hotel restaurant. We found everything to be delicious! We appreciated the convenience of having a small store next door and access to the beach across the street. There is a lot of street noise that can be heard in the evening while you’re in the room, but we still slept very well. The TV and DVD player did not work, but this isn’t a problem if you’re not planning to do more than sleep in the room. We would absolutely stay here again!
- Toni Nicola (10/5): - This was a fantastic accommodation to stay at. Michael (owner) couldnt do enough for us. Lovely greeting on our arrival, had lots of advise and information to give. He and all staff were very approachable and could help with anything, nothing was too much trouble. The cleaning staff were a delight to chat to and made us feel very welcome. It was great to have the restaurant on the premises as there wasn't anywhere local. Great food with an extensive menu and large portions! We hired a car through Michael which was so easy and at a very reasonable price. The pool was lovely as it was nice to cool down when needed. I would certainly recommend this property, clean, safe and fantastic customer service and experience!
- Andreas (10/5): - .
- Eloy (10/5): Great place to stay - Place was Great and service and owner were awesome.
- Raducan (10/5): - an excellent location, safe and clean! a kind staff and a very friendly owner. it is located in the most beautiful area of the island. it is halfway between Petite Anse Beach and Port Launay, which are the most beautiful beaches on the island of Mahe. We are sorry that we have to leave, but we will probably return to the same place!
- Mikulas (10/5): - Everything is perfect, amazing staff, nice breakfeast.
Thank you very much and see you soon... :-) Mike
- Angela (10/5): - The staff at this property are amazing. I had to leave before breakfast was open so they made me a continental breakfast the night before so I would have something to eat before I leave. I did have to ask about the air conditioning as it had to be turned on centrally before it would work in my room, but again the staff were very accommodating and helpful.
- Emmanuel (4/5): - Staff were very friendly and helpful. Property a bit old and exterior don’t look like pictures. Food too expensive also. Overall, it’s an affordable place and good for the price!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Short layover - Short but very relaxed stay. Not much to see or do outside the property. A bit noisy being next to a road.
- William (10/5): - Lovely boutique hotel
- Anie (10/5): It is the perfect place for value and comfort. - The location is perfect, beach is only a few steps away, a supermarket is next door, and public transportation is only 2 blocks away.
Small and intimate resort with its own restaurant serving a large variety of international dishes as well as pizza.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Cute layout of pool and rooms, great food in restaurant with nice ambience
- Neel (8/5): Comfy rooms and great food - The restaurant is excellent and has a wide range of fish dishes. The rooms were clean and the hotel is walking distance to a bus stop and to the beach.
- E&B (10/5): Small friendly hotel close to beach - We really enjoyed our stay. We were celebrating our golden wedding anniversary and this hotel made the occasion very special for us. We also enjoyed the special meal/party event on New Years Eve.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful
- Verified traveler (2/5): owner wont honour pre-paid booking. - horrible service, pathetic!!! booking was prepaid by hotels.com, but when we got there the owner said he sold our room to someone else. arranged another hotel for us to stay, on 2nd day he insisted we must go back to auberge. we refused, saying we cant pack n unpack everyday, spoils a holiday. after that he got his staff to keep pestering us to move back to his hotel. to top it all he didnt pay new hotel for our stay, only after police got involved did he sort it out. pathetic to say the least.
- Moses (2/5): - Absolute worst experience I have ever had.
- Adrian (4/5): Expensive for what you get - The good: The owner, Michael, was really friendly and helpful. Our first room was right next to the road and they moved us. As recompense, we were given glasses of wine with dinner. He also printed out our boarding passes for us. He is planning a major upgrade and the place is charming with plenty of potential.
The not so good: The websites we checked showed this guesthouse having a TV and coffee/tea making but it had neither. The TV was apparently a mistake by the website but the coffee/tea making was within the control of the owner. Parking was very limited. For the high price, it just didn't have the amenities I'd expect. WiFi was slow and kept dropping out. I wet shave and there were no basin plugs. These are minor things that wouldn't have bothered me at two thirds the price.
Overall, if I scored out of 10, I'd say a 4.
- Orio (4/5): Deceiving in photos - Stayed a night and glad it wasn't longer. The staff were extremely lovely but that is where it ended unfortunately :/
Awkward flooring in the bathroom, an unstable toilet and a "double bed " that was two singles put together and uncomfortable .
The crab soup and smoked fish salad were lovely but the eggplant fritters were in a soggy batter and the eggplant uncooked - not at all like the crispy ones we are used to at other locations around the island.
Breakfast mediocre - unseasoned eggs and soggy bacon - the papaya jam was their saving grace.
Great for a cheap option if you're going to mostly outside of the hotel doing activities but don't expect anything sensational and comfortable.
Needs a huge refurbishment in general as it could have potential
- Fiona (10/5): Nice hotel with a great garden - Stayed here for one night on our way out of Mahe, and it was great. Our room was spacious and nicely furnished,with a great terrace to sit out on. Good restaurant on site, and we loved the garden, with its hammock and bright flowers. Beaches for swimming are a little distance, but it's a very easy bus ride to the beautiful bay at Port Launay. Staff were very helpful.
- Kestutis (10/5): Great option - Great hotel and exceptional service. Onsite restaurant serves delicious and affordable food. Nothing special arouns, but close to nice beaches
- on honeymoon (10/5): Great hotel. - Its a nice hotel with a home like feeling. The staff are very friendly. The mini markets next door are good access to buy snack and water. Exactly at 1.2km or 20min walk there is a beautiful beach. The place is not convenient to walk around and see other things because there is nothing to see around. So if you have a car its quite a cozy place to stay.
