The individual villas are fabulous, lovely views, fantastic plunge pool, beautiful inside, very private. The hotel is renovating gradually, which it does need to do, main restaurant & area outside it in particular need attention. Asian restaurant was excellent, main restaurant food was very average. Would return for those lovely private villas!

The resort is extremely hilly and requires a buggy service for which you must use the telephone in the rooms. However, the phone did not work and the management was aware of it without response when we checked in. Subsequently, we ended up walking. Also, the coffee pot in the room did not work so fresh brewed coffee in the morning no good.

Lovely views on Praslin
A lovely, spacious hilltop villa with amazing views across to Curieuse Island. We enjoyed the outdoor seating space and private plunge pool. Lovely Asprey toiletries. The property is large with a beautiful granite boulder-strewn beachfront. The daily included breakfast was always tasty and plentiful. Prices for other meals were high, and given the difficulty of getting off-property for other meals (unless you've rented a car), it makes sense to book half or full board. Service was often slow especially at lunch and dinner. Service at the pool and the beach was often nonexistant. We expected better at this price point.

We stayed in one of the beautiful panoramic villas which are well sized, have a nice pool and a spacious outdoor deck with beautiful sunset views. The beach is everything you would expect (soft sands, blue seas with fish) and are well maintained as are the over sized pool and sun deck. The staff are charming and helpful. There is a good choice of F&B options but they are good rather than exceptional. Would stay here again though.

The Raffles hotel in the island of the Seychelles was a really sad and terrible experience! Falling apart are best two words to describe the situation it is currently suffering from. A failed management was to be blamed. The service/Professionnalism of the staff is quite eye opening in the worst way imaginable The staff are rude with no training whatsoever for a so called luxury hotel. You feel they are being overworked therefore the effort and kindness naturally disappeares. It's so bad that it becomes difficult to explain it in a few words. A staff member that complains to their guest how bad things are in the resort tells a story by itself. Food is quite a bad one too. Keep in mind our visit was after they started re-opening during Covid-19. One of the two restaurants in the resort was permanently closed. The choices of dishes and preparation was absolutely not acceptable and we tried to avoid eating at the hotel, leaving us with one option in the whole island of Praslin, "Cafe des Art" which still was a more decent venue compared to the hotel saved us for a few days at least its view overlooking the sunset did. What would you call a hotel that would serve you a big glass bottle of water without any glasses of water or paper cups! There excuse was it isn't allowed. So we have to drink from the glass bottle. Who came up with this useless idea. All this with an attitude too making it even worse. My partner got electrocuted by opening a light switch in the garden after

Location and property is stunning, however for a 5 star resort there were things that could definitely improve. Food was 3 star at best quality, deck boards in my villa were coming up, chips on coffee glasses at breakfast...etc. For paying this price every night you’d think the hotel would prioritize upkeep of the hotel.

Raffles Seychelles is fantastic. It is well deserving of urs five star rating. But it is aging in a few respects. The buggy cart paths throughout the property need to be power washed. The mortar holding together the rock walls has turned an ugly black. The wood decks all around the property are aging. They should be replaced with an ageless synthetic product like hardi-plank.

My husband and I stayed at Raffles for four nights at the end of our honeymoon and had a great time. The room was beautiful - spacious, clean, and comfortable - and we enjoyed a meal at all of the restaurants during the course of our stay. The food was expensive (most of the Seychelles are), but tasty, and the service was generally great and the ambiance very enjoyable. We felt safe, cared for, and relaxed and would definitely come back to Raffles on our next trip to Africa.

Raffles is amazing. We spent two nights for our honeymoon and they were extremely accommodating, given our early arrival. Since we traveled in the offseason and it was our honeymoon, the manager was kind enough to upgrade our room to a partial ocean view and made our experience truly special. The resort has gorgeous rooms, with a Nespresso bar, private pool, outdoor rain shower and even an easel for fun artwork! They also provide snorkel masks, paddle boards, kayaks and bikes to explore. We had the absolute best time. Oh, and breakfast was AMAZING!!

Great Place to stay
What can we say about this wonderful place? We had an absolutely fabulous time. It has everything you need for a relaxing and peaceful escape from all your cares. The facilities are well maintained and presented. All the staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly and are willing go the extra mile. Special mention to Angele, Alla, Rita, John, Varun, Rashika, Mayur, Manzell, Uday, Margarita, the lady housekeeper from Nepal and the guy who delivered our room service from Bangladesh (forgot their names).

So much privacy! We were I the partial ocean view villa the first few nights and we literally couldn’t see any other villa or person from our villa! That is awesome for a honeymoon. Even walking around the property, there was minimal interactions with other people. We pretty much only saw other guests at meals and at the pool. There’s way more than enough beach to go around. The two of us really liked that you could always find a stretch of beach close by that only had the two of us. Such amazing service! I loved that the hostess always knew who we were upon arrival at the restaurants. The buggy drivers are as good as any guide you can hire. Loved the turndown service that came with nightly desserts. Everyone greeted you with a smile but gave you as much space as you needed! I can’t wait to return, or try another raffles resort. Highly recommend for people seaking privacy and a feeling of remote bliss!

Lovely hotel
We had an amazing room with wonderful facilities. The pool and beach were lovely, as was the food. I would like to see the concierge open later in the evening and more golf buggies available especially from the restaurants and pool area.

It was a pleasure to have you with us for your holiday at Raffles Seychelles & thank you for taking out time to review us. We are grateful for your kind words of appreciation for our villas, pool, beach & food. However we have noted that concierge timings & the delay in buggy service left you disappointed. We have just received 10 additional buggies to ease our services & also the concierge timings have been extended till 2000 hrs starting tomorrow. Thank you once again for your constructive feedback & we look forward to welcome you back soon at one of our Raffles property.

Paradise!
This is hotel was amazing from start to finish - the resort is excellently maintained, and the staff were absolutely brilliant. We stayed for 5 nights, and were so sad to leave. We cannot wait to go back. This place is paradise!

Property and resort was beautiful. Service leaves lot to be desired. Quite apparent that the Concierge staff is hand and glove with outside excursion providers who give sub standard service and excursions at extremely high prices.

We are sorry to read about your feedback regarding our concierge services, but would like to assure you that our concierge team has a restricted list of excursion providers that we recommend to our guest, all of which have been screened by the management, are positively reviewed by our guests, and most importantly all have the relevant licenses and insurance documents.
