Stayed for two nights, beautiful surroundings, perfect layout literally had everything you could need or want in terms of amenities. Only thing was slow WiFi and about 4 TV channels but that's no big deal.

Un luogo veramente magico, immerso nel verde e vicino ad alcune delle spiagge più belle di Mahe. L'alloggio è spazioso, pulito e dotato di tutto; abbiamo trascorso 3 giorni veramente piacevoli.

Cette belle cabane tout confort et très bien entretenue est perchée au milieu des palmiers. Les oiseaux et les chauve-souris sont un spectacle quotidien qui font oublier les quelques bruits de la route en journée. Proche des plus belles plages de Mahé, cet hébergement a complété agréablement la carte postale des Seychelles. Merci encore à Anne Lise pour son accueil , sa gentillesse et de nous proposer ce bel endroit. Allez y les yeux fermés.

Un trop court séjour à hillside !

Très bon accueil (avec un jus de fruit bien frais c’est agréable après une très chaude journée) nous avons échangé en anglais puis en français, en se rendant compte que la propriétaire était bilingue ! Nous avons passé deux nuits, idéalement placé pour nos visites et pas loin de take away pour nos repas ! Le logement en lui même est très sympa, confortable et climatisé.

Insgesamt ein schlüssiges Konzept von Annelise. Sie hat vorgesorgt für Strandausflüge mit Matte und Handtücher und Plastik Trinkgefäße, Trinkwasser gibt es kostenlos, Küche hervorragend ausgestattet, wir haben frischen Fisch gemacht, WLAN super, Betten bequem, immer wieder neue Handtücher, eigene Terrasse, Stellplatz für Auto,TV, alles was das Urlaubsherz begehrt

Excellent accommodation up in the treetops

The rooms are actually little apartments in a lush tropical paradise really close to the sea. They are spacious, clean and upon arrival come with a very nice welcome juice. The owner is lovely and also provides an excellent English breakfast for a small additional charge.
