“The only place we would stay on Mahe!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

My husband and I had ten delightful days here last month. The chalets are super clean, comfortable and well equipped. You are steps away from the best beach on Mahe and fall asleep to the sound of the sea.Unless you are looking for a busy nightlife, this is the ideal place to stay. A big thank you to Daphne, Jean-Pierre and Brigitte. Wish we were still with you!

“Heaven on earth”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

We stayed here for 3 days in route to Praslin to get married. This is a delightful family run establishment, extremely clean and quiet. You are literally steps from the beach which has wonderful snorkeling. The rooms are great for making your own breakfast, and lite dinner. We had a car and toured the island and bought fresh fish from the fishermen and made our own dinner.
It's a wonderful gem. We can't recommended it more highly.

Room Tip: Most of the Chalets are like a 'duplex' in the states, you share a wall but it's still v...

“Excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2011

The chalets d'anse forbans are our favourite in the Seychelles. The friendly family is most helpful and go oit of their way to ensure their guest's comfort. Their car hirs is also highly recommended. As it was also the first place we stayed at in the Seychelles, we drove right around the island and concluded that this was the place we would have chosen if we had the choice again. It is a most beautiful quiet area, not the first choice for those who want busy party scene.
Thank you Daphne, Pierre and Bridget!

“Gr8 place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I and my wife stayed at the Chalets Anse Forbans while we were on our honeymoon n d stay was very peaceful and pleasant.. the Chalets are clean and well done up.. surprisingly d floor was wet in the evening as well, although the house keeping does the cleaning in the morning itself.. so no big deal really.. the chalets are fairly spacious, decent room space and very gud for 2 ppl.. the Standard chalets is where we stayed. Its a safe place but everyone seems to keep stressing on locking the chalets once its dark, making u feel that its not very safe as such. The chalets r right on the beach.. the water is very close by and a hop-skip n jump away frm the chalets.. very quiet and pvt. The location of the place is a little far - not smack in the middle of town OR not very close to all the action, but what is needed is a car and when one has it, its ok np to drive up to Airport->Victoria n up north towards Beau Vallon. The owners are very nice and they explain all the rules well.. only concern being that maybe there are many rules which u know of in general.. like if u lose a beach towel they will charge and things like that.. but it is generally explained in detail..There is an Ants issue.. so jst ensure that the food is all kept inside the fridge at all times.. they give u a loaf of bread, butter, milk, jam etc. complimentary and is decent for a couple of days' breakfast.. for anythin else, one can go down to a supermkt nearby and pick up the remaining stuff, if needed.. There is no fone in the rooms and so u cant expect any room service unless you walk in to the main office.. but overall for d price, will surely recommend dis place.. so.. go for it :)

Thank you for your review of Chalets d' Anse Forbans. We are pleased to see you enjoyed your honeymoon time with us which was too short. You will need to return for a longer time for your next visit.

“SUMMER HOLIDAYS 2011”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2011

I've spent with my family 14 days last summer in Seychelles Islands lodging at Chalets d'Anse Forbans.
It's been the second time at the Chalets, but this time with my son of 5 years old.
About me, is the best solution, because it seems to stay at your own home, you can feel to what you want, you can cook the meals by yourself if you desire (because the chalets are fully furnished), overall if you have childrens that are not still friendly with the creoles tastes, or you can go at the restaurant suggested by the staff of chalets or discovered by you.
the environment is very safe, quite, located in beautiful tropical garden where leave also 7 big turtles.
Every day the chalet was cleand, the towels and linnen were replaced regularly.
The only problem that I've found during my stay it was the low flow of the shower, this doen't mean there wasn't water.
I suggest at the management to foreseen to keep the rooms all the day for the guests that have the departure flight evening later.
However, I'll return back!. Thank you Brigitte.

Dear Nic0502
Thank you for your review and spending time with us at Chalets d' Anse Forbans. We are also pleased to see you wish to return for a third time and hopefully we can organise another fishing trip for you and your son again soon.

For our future guest we would like to clarify if you do require a late check out you do need to inform us when making your booking, as we are not always able to accommodate such requests at a later period due to our occupancy levels, especially during peak seasons.

We look forward to welcome you all back soon.
Kind Regards,
Daphne
