Every villa has a private infinity pool with insane Indian Ocean views
The 'Little Cove' beach offers aquarium-level snorkeling right off the shore
Private island isolation that feels worlds away from the main Seychelles tourist track
クイックテイク: It’s a stunning visual masterpiece that struggles with island logistics—expect to wait for buggies, battle mosquitoes, and pay a fortune for transfers.
@Yunfancyf によるレビュー: I’ve never felt more disconnected from the real world. Waking up to that ocean view and spending my afternoons swimming with sea turtles was pure magic. If you want eco-luxury that actually feels wild and private, this is the place. My favorite stay in the Seychelles by far.

The hype
Visually the most beautiful place many have ever stayed, but service (GEM butlers) is hit-or-miss.
Reality check
The 'rustic' eco-design means open-air bathrooms that invite bugs, and the wood exteriors are showing wear from the harsh salt air.
You crave total privacy and plan to spend 80% of your time in your villa pool
You are a confident snorkeler who wants to swim with turtles right off the jetty
You appreciate 'barefoot luxury' (no dress codes, sand everywhere) over polished marble halls
清潔さと保守管理
8.2
Housekeeping: Generally good, but 'missed spots' and 'dust' are reported due to the open-air nature of villas.
Bathroom hygiene: Clean, but 'rustic' style means you might find ants or geckos. One horror story mentioned a stained toilet seat.
Maintenance: Showing age. Wood exteriors are weathering, and some decks have 'peeling paint' or 'splinters'.
Linens & towels: High quality, organic cotton feel, usually fresh.
Odors & scents: Fresh ocean air mixed with lemongrass (used to repel bugs), but occasional 'musty' smells in humid season.

知っておくと良いこと
The 'Ocean Kitchen' restaurant is meat-free (pescatarian); go to 'Island Café' if you want steak.
Water is purified and bottled on-site (free), so don't worry about buying plastic bottles.
You can kayak to Coco Island (marine park) directly from the resort if the tide is right.
持ち物
DEET or Picaridin (essential due to Chikungunya risk)
Reef-safe sunscreen (they are strict about this)
Water shoes (entry to beaches can be rocky and coral-heavy)
ルームジニー
おすすめ
Panorama Pool Villa (specifically high numbers like #55) for unmatched privacy and views, though it's a trek.
Pasyon Pool Villa #50 for the unique rock-integrated outdoor shower and secret hammock spot.
避けるべきお部屋
Oceanfront Pool Villas if you want privacy—snorkelers and boats can see right onto your deck.
Hideaway Villas if you care about ocean views (they are buried in trees).
ルームリクエストジニー – コピー&ペースト
“Request a Panorama Pool Villa on the higher elevation for maximum privacy. Please avoid low-lying Oceanfront villas where boat traffic is visible. If available, Villa 50 is preferred.”
FAQ と隠された便利な使い方
ご予約前に本当に知りたいことすべて
Is the helicopter transfer worth it?
Yes, if you can afford it. It's 20 minutes vs. a grueling multi-leg journey (flight to Praslin + drive + boat) that eats half your day.
Are the mosquitoes really that bad?
Yes. Reviews consistently mention legs looking like 'relief maps.' The open-air design makes it hard to seal your room completely.
Can I swim at all the beaches?
No. Grand Anse is beautiful but often too rough/shallow. The small cove near the Welcome Area is your best bet for swimming and snorkeling.
Is the food expensive?
Extremely. Expect $100+ per person for dinner without alcohol. You are captive on the island, so there are no cheaper local alternatives.
Do I need a power adapter?
Seychelles uses Type G (British style). The resort usually has universal sockets, but bring one just in case.
Is it kid-friendly?
Surprisingly yes. There is a 'Trouloulou' kids' villa and activities like treasure hunts, but the steep terrain is tricky for toddlers.
インサイダー情報
✨
The 'Ice Cream Bike' by the main pool offers free homemade ice cream daily—don't miss it.
✨
Book the 'Cinema Under the Stars' early; it's a highlight but spots are limited.
✨
Ask for a 'GEM' (butler) who is proactive; if yours is absent, request a switch immediately via the front desk.
行く前に知っておくべき5つのこと
💡The 'steaks' at Island Café have been described as 'shoe leather'—stick to the seafood.
💡Bird poop on breakfast tables is a common complaint due to the open-air dining.
💡The internet speed drops drastically when it rains because everyone goes online at once.
💡You might see a nurse on arrival checking temperatures (health protocols are strict).
💡The 'sunset' side of the island has less breeze, meaning more bugs—pick your poison.
