The hype
Guests love the chic, botanical design and comfortable rooms but are often frustrated by the sluggish service at the restaurants.
Laïla Seychelles A Tribute Portfolio Resort
$275-400 / nakti
Rezervējiet, ja You want a modern, boutique base in Mahé that feels like a village but offers Marriott-grade beds and AC.
Kāpēc cilvēki to mīl
- Brand new hardware (opened 2023) that feels fresh and spotless
- Direct access to Anse Royale beach and local village life
- Excellent breakfast buffet with rotating daily specials
Ātrs apskats: A polished oasis that suffers from 'island time' service and a busy road separating you from the sand.
Pārskatīts: @AsongDefang8507711: I was blown away by the welcome at Laïla! Seeing my name on the TV and getting a surprise delivery of fresh treats made me feel like royalty. The terrace is my favorite spot to relax. Highly recommend for a pampered stay.

Reality check
The 'Partial Sea View' often includes a very full view of the asphalt road and power lines.
- You value a powerful AC and a modern, mold-free bathroom over rustic charm
- You want to be walking distance to local markets and restaurants, not trapped in a resort
- You are a Marriott Bonvoy member looking to burn points in paradise

Pirms grāmatošanas
Noderīgi zināt
- You must pay a tourism environmental levy of SCR 100 (~$7.50) per person, per night at check-out.
- The pool gets shaded in the late afternoon due to the building's orientation.
- There is a small deli on-site for quick snacks if you don't want a full sit-down meal.
Ko ņemt līdzi
- Your own snorkel mask—hotel gear availability is spotty and fit is hit-or-miss
- Earplugs if you plan to nap on the balcony
- Reef-safe sunscreen (expensive to buy locally)

“I would love a high-floor room facing the mountain for quiet, or a Senior Terrace Suite if available. Please avoid low-floor rooms facing the main road due to noise sensitivity.”
BUJ un paslēptie paņēmieni
Viss, kas jums patiešām jāzina pirms grāmatošanas.
Is the beach private?
No, Anse Royale is a public beach across the street. The hotel has a designated area with loungers, but it's not exclusive.
Is there a resort fee?
No hidden 'resort fee,' but there is a mandatory government environmental levy of SCR 100 per person/night.
How is the WiFi?
Surprisingly fast and reliable throughout the property, suitable for Zoom calls.
Can I walk to other restaurants?
Yes! You are in Anse Royale village, so you can walk to Kafe Kreol, Le Relax, and local takeaways.
Is the pool heated?
No, but with Seychelles temperatures averaging 80°F+, you won't need it.
Do they offer airport transfer?
Yes, for a fee, but a local taxi is often cheaper (~$30-40) and readily available.
Insider padomi
- ✨
The 'Market' nearby sells local fruit and snacks at 1/4 the price of the hotel minibar.
- ✨
Ask for a table at Kafe Kreol (the beachfront restaurant) for dinner, but go 30 minutes before you're hungry to account for slow service.
- ✨
The hotel has a 'water refill station'—bring a reusable bottle to save money and plastic.
5 lietas, kas jāzina pirms doties
💡The 'Partial Sea View' is technically true but practically disappointing due to the power lines.
💡The shower pressure is incredible—a rarity for island hotels.
💡You can hear the local church bells on Sunday mornings.
💡The gym is small but has high-end Technogym equipment and is freezing cold (a plus).
💡The housekeeping staff are the unsung heroes here, often leaving towel art and fresh flowers.
