Insider Tips
Book at least 2-3 months ahead for peak season stays in Seychelles.
Consider staying slightly outside the main tourist zone for better value — many of Seychelles's best hotels are in residential neighborhoods.
Always check the hotel's cancellation policy before booking, especially during high season.
Ask the front desk for local restaurant recommendations — hotel concierges in Seychelles often have excellent taste.
If you're visiting for the first time, a central location is worth the premium — you'll save on transport and have more time to explore.

On the private Silhouette Island — the Seychelles' third largest and one of its most pristine — the Hilton Labriz offers exceptional diving, 13km of forest trails, and 111 villas on an island that is 90% national park.
Praslin
86 villas on Praslin's eastern coast with private pools and direct access to Anse Takamaka — Raffles Seychelles combines the brand's colonial elegance with an extraordinary natural setting, its spa among the finest in the archipelago.
Mahé
An ultra-exclusive adults-only resort of 30 granite-framed villas on Anse Louis on Mahé's west coast, MAIA operates on a unique 'no choice' philosophy — your personal butler takes care of everything, so you need make no decisions.
