We think Royal Bay is a great place for your vacation, but don’t just take it from us, this is what our guests say…
EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Apartment is so safe for a solo traveller, away from the main drag but close enough to easily walk to the beach, village and bus stop. I enjoyed the peace and quiet and watching the birds visiting the beautiful garden which is one of the best I have seen. The pool hygiene is checked daily, early morning and it shows. It was sparkling clean when I used it. The Villa guests also use it but our paths didn’t cross so I enjoyed it to myself. All the practical things here are easy, shopping, cooking, travelling. Nothing is missing from the Apartment. The AC, fans, coffee machine, comfortable bed and large sofa all complete the comfort provided. Having visited many beaches, Anse Royale has the best, perfect for swimming at both high and low tide and great for snorkelling without having to swim too far. I saw a sting ray resting on the seabed on my first go! The wide stretch of white sand is the perfect place to relax and watch the occasional paddle boarders practicing. Further up the beach Fairyland offers a bit more shaded areas and more spectacular snorkelling out towards the small, reachable, uninhabited island which is the focus of a picture postcard view. I made a direct booking, by WhatsApp, for 11 nights here, based on online information and paid for the Apartment in full a couple of weeks before arriving. The Apartment and location is exactly as described online including distance from the beach and position on the Villa property. This has been an amazing holiday, completely relaxing in comfort and surrounded by a naturally beautiful, lush, tropical landscape with mountains in the background and a view across the well looked after property garden to fruit trees, coconut palms and royal palm trees and an elevated tree deck which has both views of the sea and of distant mountains . A fun treehouse was also being erected in this area. This place is much better than the photos can show, Barry and Sarah are friendly, helpful, respectful and always responsive to me. I’m already planning my next visit here!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We stayed at Royal bay villa and apartment..Barry was absolutely brilliant.. We had tea and coffee on arrival and a variety of local fruits every day The whole place was spotless clean The location is superb near the beach maybe 3 minutes walk the town with bank shops and hospital and restaurants close at hand. Barry was always on hand to help with any queries. The swimming is crystal clear or hot tub. Will return again next year.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We came back to the villa for a second time for a 60th birthday celebration vacation with a large family, all different ages, from 60 yrs to 1yrs old. The property had something for everyone. Very child friendly, there are swings, and a pool, ample space in the garden for outdoor games or eating together outside, wonderful fruit trees trees and flowers to admire. The scenery is beautiful. The hosts made sure we had everything we could ever possibly need. We had a great time.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Merveilleux séjour à Royal Bay villa.

The house is perfect for a family of friends trip, with lots of equipments (jacuzzi, swimming pool, outdoor kitchen with plancha & BBQ, volleyball field, ice machine, water machine…), lovely garden and nice rooms with sea view balcony. Barry, the owner, was caring for everything to be perfect and very helpful to organize our stay. The Villa is located less than 5 min walk from the beautiful Anse Royale beach, and from shops and facilities. Nice grilled fish down the road with Alain. Very nice neighbourhood with easy access to airport, Victoria and other parts of the Island. I recommend 100% !Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Мы бронировали и жили 2 недели в Royal Bay Villa & Apartment, это был отличный отдых. Вилла расположена в замечательном тихом, зелёном месте, где постоянно поют птицы. Для нашего удобства было абсолютно все, в доме продумана каждая мелочь, что б чувствовать себя комфортно. Удобная кухня совсем необходимым, спальня с удобной кроватью. Хозяева стараются помочь в любов вопросе и просьбе. Территория большая и чистая, есть бассейн и джакузи, гриль зона, а ещё на территории живут очаровательные черепахи. До океана пару минут, также рядом магазины, рынок. Выбрав эту виллу Вы останетесь очень довольны и получаете замечательный отдых. Благодарна за приём и заботу.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

EXCELLENT10Verified Danke für die schöne Zeit! ☺Eigentlich braucht man nur Badebekleidung einzupacken, denn alles für einen schönen und komfortablen Urlaub findet sich im Apartment. Die Unterkunft ist liebevoll und sehr gut ausgestattet mit guter Küche und zweckmäßigem Bad. Wir sind an Weihnachten angereist und durften uns sogar über weihnachtliche Dekoration freuen. Das Apartment liegt neben einer großen Villa auf einem schönen, sicheren Grundstück und verfügt über eine eigene kleine Terrasse. Den gepflegten Garten mit Pool und Außenküche teilt man sich mit den Gästen der Villa - wir haben aber jeweils nette Bekanntschaft gemacht, sodass das kein Problem war. Barry und Sarah sind ganz wunderbare und herzliche Gastgeber. Sie sind stets um das Wohl bemüht und gerne bei Fragen (Auto mieten, Unterkünfte,…) behilflich, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Wir durften die Familie bei guten Gesprächen näher kennenlernen und haben sie ins Herz geschlossen. ☹Nichts10Verified Exceptional ☺ Amazing place.The best beach on Mahe island. Good village. Shops, market, cafe at 5 min walk. You can explore all island by bus. Good location for that. Hospitable housekeepers. Barry & Sarah is the best people on Seychelles 🤗10Verified ☺Понравилось всё, начиная от приятной встречи с прекрасной семейной парой, которая сдаёт аппартаменты. Мы жили в небольшом отдельном домике. В доме было всё необходимое, включая мыло, гели для душа, подсолнечное и оливковое масло, соль, перец и разные специи, чай и кофе в капсулах для кофемашины, много разной посуды и большая плита. Классное постельное бельё в сейшельских тонах, очень удобная кровать и подушки. Достаточно просторная ванная комната и стиральная машина с капсулами для стирки. Замечательная собственная терраса с газовым барбекю, столиками и удобными стульями. Отдельное спасибо за джакузи возле дома, это были незабываемые впечатления. Рядом с апартаментами есть большой бассейн и мой любимый тропический душ, которыми мы могли пользоваться. У хозяйки Сары очень красивый и большой сад, есть прелестные черепахи. Пляж совсем рядом, очень красивый. Магазины и местный рынок в 5-10 минутах ходьбы. Очень рекомендую проживание в этом месте. Хозяева относятся к своему делу с душой и заботой о каждом госте. Спасибо Вам огромное за такой тёплый приём! ☹Минусов нет вообще.10Verified Perfecto ☺Sarah y Barry son unos anfitriones estupendos. El apartamento es tal y cómo se define, con acceso a la piscina junto a la villa. Gran localización y fácil comunicación.10Verified Perfekte Unterkunft! :) ☺Es war einfach alles perfekt, super schön und süß eingerichtete Wohnung mit allem was das Herz begehrt. Ganz besonders liebe Vermieter die einem bei Fragen direkt zur Seite standen und einem mit leckerem Obst und Kuchen den Tag versüßt haben. Wenn wir wiederkommen, dann zu Sarah und Barry! :)10Verified ☺Отличная вилла и апартаменты, супер доброжелательный хозяин. Чувствовали себя, как дома. Черепашки, бассейн, кокосы и бананы, 2 минуты от океана и магазинов. Рекомендую!10Verified Perfect, excellent location, lovely accommodation and wonderful host. ☺ Breakfast was not supposed to be included but lovely fresh fruit was delivered in the morning. Location was great - beach at the end of the read and 5 mins walk to shops. Milk and tea/coffee was provided on arrival - nice touch. ☹ Cannot think of anything.10Verified manderò gli amici ☺tutto10Verified ☺Die Freundlichkeit der Gastgeber10Verified Magic. Most relaxing holiday I have ever had. ☺ We had the most amazing stay with Barry & Sarah. We found a real gem. What a treat our stay was. Everything was perfect. Beautiful surroundings. We stayed in one of the apartments. Very well equipped. Gardens & pool are lovely. Outdoor kitchen facilities amazing. We barbecued and ate outside most days in the lovely outdoor area. Local village is only a few minutes down the road on foot and the breathtaking Anse Royal beach is a minute walk. We enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor showering too. We were totally spoiled. Barry and Sarah are super hosts, very easy going, informative, generous and both have a great sense of humour. Had the pleasure of them both joining us for lunch one of the days. We enjoyed fresh fruit from their garden most days, compliments of Gandolf the very nice gardener. Great bus service from this location too, important if you don’t hire a car. We look forward to a return visit soon. Our stay was extremely relaxing and enjoyable. Barry and Sarah made us feel most welcome and couldn’t have done any more for us. Highly recommend a stay at Royal Bay. We were sad to leave. A massive thank you to Barry & Sarah for looking after us so well.
EXCELLENTVerified c était comme attenduVerified Sarah is the definition of a super host! Very responsive to all my queries but what stood out was the catering she arranged for Christmas Day lunch for 13 people. The food was delicious and consisted of local dishes and traditional Christmas dishes. Way too much food which fed us for the next few days. The house has everything you need. We had 6 kids with us and each of them loved the house, especially the pool area and were super excited that there were pet tortoises. Was certainly a home away from home. I highly recommend this property. Hopefully we will be able to return one day.Verified A fantastically equipped house with charming hosts. Great location, a short walk to the beach or town. Comfortable beds, 6 showers including 2 poolside. Brilliant barbeque and dining area by the pool where we cooked all week. Highly recommended.Verified As first-time visitors to Seychelles, we couldn't have asked for better hosts and place.Communication: Communication was great at all the stages of our trip (before arriving and during our stay). Before arrival, Sarah was quick to respond to us and gave us great recommendations. During our stay, Barry was readily available to assist us in any way we needed, from great restaurant recommendations to linking us with great transport providers.Check-in: Check-in was also great. We were greeted by Barry (despite arriving late), who walked us through the property and gave us all the info we needed.Place & Location: The villa and the apartment exceeded our expectations, and were perfect for our group. A large kitchen for us to prep our meals together, a large dining area, and livingroom to accommodate all of us. And a great pool area that we made use of on days we felt like working outside. The Villa and Apt were a walking distance to the beach, local supermarkets and a few places to eat.Hosts: Barry and Sarah were the type of hosts one would hope for. Accommodating, gave great recommendations, and linked us with a great transport service. They were quick to respond, and we didn't need for anything, from the time we checked-in until the last of us checked out. Anyone would be lucky to be hosted by you two :)Verified Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans la villa. Elle est très bien située, à 1 min de la plage, tout le nécessaire (serviettes, draps, etc) s'y trouve et Sarah et son mari sont serviables et disponibles.Verified Sarah was amazing with us since the first contact. Quickly to reply the questions, giving good tips for the best spots in the island and also helpful all the times!Verified The owners was so kind and welcoming during all the time. Everything was so perfect, the house was so clean and comfortable.We really recommend Royal Bay Villa to every family that come to Seychelles.Verified I had a great time getting to know the place and can’t wait to return with all the family for our celebration holiday. The villa will be a perfect home from home and very suitable for all of us especially the private garden, pool, outdoor bbq kitchen and terrace. It was a great location, such an easy walk to the beach and everything including shops, restaurants and bank was in reach when needed though I had the peace and quiet of the villa as well. Sarah communicated everything to me like telling me about the gardener who was a helpful guy.
