We stayed here for 1 week and were quite happy with our choice. The location is great. The South of Mahé is quiet, less busy than the rest of the island.

The beach and reef in front of the chalets are great for snorkeling. The gorgeous Anse Intendance is just a 10 min drive away. We went there every day, it is simply the best beach ever.

The chalets are very well managed, clean an well equipped. There is all you need for a great holiday.
The owner reminded us several times that they are not an hotel and do not offer any hotel services. ( eg we asked if they could keep our luggage because our flight was late, but the owner just said "no" without looking for another solution).

So if you chose to stay at the Chalets d'Anse Forbans do not expect hospitality. This is not there unfortunately. It is instead a perfectly managed holiday / house renting "machine". Acknowledging this, we still had a great time and enjoyed our stay.

Dear Pat70
Thank you for your lovely review on our property and we are very pleased you felt you made the right choice to spend the week exploring the Seychelles whilst staying with us. You are right we did point out we do not offer a 24 hour desk as we are a self catering establishment. And to state we do not offer you hospitality is most unkind of you. We arranged your taxi transfer on arrival, which you walked right passed and took a car hire. When you complained you had a back issue and could not carry your bags from your car to your chalet, we called our staff off lunch to help you. And on departure we called someone to your room to help you once again. We even placed extra mattress toppers on your bed to help you feel more comfortable and checked on you afterwards to ensure you were indeed more comfortable. We helped you arrange excursions and the reason you felt we were not hospitable to you, is the fact we would not store your luggage till 21:00hours. We did indeed offer various solutions but none of these were suitable to you. If you had in fact given us all your flight information when we requested, we could have pre-arranged all this prior to arrival.
Kind regards
Daphne

This year I attended an unforgettable place in the Seychelles! If you are tired of city life, you need to come to Chalet d'Anse Forbans! Quiet and peaceful place to relax with a beautiful view of the ocean. The staff is very nice and friendly. Helped in everything what I needed. Highly recommend! I hope once again to visit this place!

Room tip: Choose any house, all the wonderful!

The bungalows are just a few steps from an incredible beach. The suites feel like home, with the kitchen and sitting area. It has air conditioning, is super clean and comfortable. Just know that you need a car or transportation as it is hard to walk on the narrow road. It was perfect!

The chalets are very clean and well taken care of. The location is fantastic.
All the stuff was always very friendly and helpful.
We felt comfortable through our whole stay.
The beach is beautiful and the ocean wonderful for swimming and snorkeling (when the tide is high).

These self catering, family owned, chalets offer a perfect family holiday or honeymoon, right on the most beautiful beach. To wake up at 6.30 and have coffee, in your bikini, on the beach .... less than 100 steps from the chalet is heaven. Take a morning walk on a pristine beach ... amongst the coconut trees.

The rooms are perfect, air-conditioned (and serviced daily = bonus), beds are comfortable, Kitchen perfect for a holiday, (I cooked a good few delicious meals in the kitchen), but 99,9 % of our time was spent sitting on the verandah, looking and listening to the ocean.

Just ask at the office, there are a lot of places close by to eat (a walk away); and convenience stores along the way for your daily needs.

I would recommend these chalets to anyone looking for peace, tranquility and beauty.

This family (and staff) will welcome you, and make your stay a memorable one

Room tip: there are single and double rooms, speak to the office for your requirements, additional bed layouts are offered if required
