Comfortable Apartment in Paradise (mind the hill!)
Exactly as per picture. Comfortable, well equipped apartment with bedroom, shower bathroom, kitchen, sitting area, and large balcony as shown. Spotless. Hosts most welcoming. Very good well stocked local shop 3 minutes walk away. Gems of hidden beaches 4 and 6 minutes away. Regular bus to Beau Vallon and Victoria 2 minutes away (flat fare =€0.50). Steep walk up from road a challenge - only for the fit. Taxi drops you at the bottom - but use the hotel's pick-up service and staff come down to carry luggage. Perfect for a quiet self-catering retreat. Not suitable if mobility impaired (due to steep access).

This is a little gem. The apartment and view are even nicer than the pictures, but it was the people who run this that really make it special!!

This property was in a Great location, very close to Sunset Beach. The suite was exactly what I expected, well kept and very roomy. The staff were very helpful, they even gave my cab driver directions as it my first time visiting the island. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is planning to visit Mahe Island.

Nicely furnished appt with good kitchen all nice and new.Great views over the sea and the surrounding trees.The variety of birds and bats was fascinating. The drive up would probably not suit less mobile people but for the island looked to be fairly typical. Lori and Alain our neighbours were kindness personified and cant praise them enough.Stephen the owner was good and dealt with any problems encountered. My wife and I had a great holiday in an idyllic island.

Great apartment with nice view and friendly host
Steve is a great host. Swift communication and very helpful. The place is clean and spacious. It is helpful to have a rental car, however the bus stops just near by. There are two beaches in 1-2 min walking distance. Also a small groceries store is near by. We stayed 3 nights.

Awesome stay at Stelia Apartment
Our stay at Stelia Apartment was awesome. The apartment was very clean and homely. Steven is very helpful and always accessible especially when it comes to transportation because the place is a bit far from town. The view of the ocean from the apartment is to die for. Definitely worth it.

Heaven is a Place on Earth
To say that Stelia Seychelles is the epitome of Utopia on Earth is an understatement. From the moment of our arrival to the hour of our departure, the small knit family who own and run this quaint self-catering apartment made our short stay the very best in comfort. We had spent 8 nights in the South of Mahe and this was our final stop of a lifetime. To put in context, Steven the proprietor had warned us earlier that we'd not be able to park our car within the vicinity of the premises due to the steep hill between the Coastal Road and the apartment itself - so our first dilemma was the thought of lugging our baggage which included 2x 23kg suitcases up to our rooms!! Within seconds of our arrival pops up Alan, the father of the owner (a man in his 66th year) who single handedly carries the bulk of our travels up the hill. The apartment is kitted out with a surplus of self catering essentials. It was outstanding with a bullet juicer and every kitchen's dream to boot! There is a balcony along both living and bedrooms (4 poster bed mind you) the view from which the spectacular Sunset into the Indian Ocean is seen between 5-6.30pm. Enchanting. You'll be entertained and hosted by Lori, Lucille, David and their lovely daughter Stephie. If you're lucky you'll meet the hilarious Michael. All very hospitable and generous. We had a constant supply of exotic fruit and freshly baked Banana cake. Home from home ever so comfortable and full of divine pleasure. We did not want to leave.

The property was amazing, clean and just perfect. The sea-view was absolutely breathtaking! Steven as a host deserve a massive thank you, communication was smooth and easy! We stayed for 4 nights and we will recommend this apartment to everyone who wants to visit Mahe! The Beau Vallon area where we stayed is the most beautiful area, the apartment is located 1 minute walk away from local shop. It’s great to rent a car to go around the island or just get a local transport. We rate the place 10 out of 10!

Schönes Appartement im Norden von Mahe für Selbstversorger. Großer Balkon mit Meerblick. Wohnung ist komplett eingerichtet mit eigener Küche. Sehr sauber, allerdings keine Reinigung während des Aufenthalts. Auffahrt zum Haus ist sehr steil, Fahrzeuge können aber unten an der Straße geparkt werden. Zu empfehlen.

Apartment mit super Ausblick und allem was man braucht
Appartment mit guter Ausstattung in toller Lage. Auffahrt ist wirklich steil, aber es gibt an der Straße Parkplätze. 2 kleine Supermärkte fußläufig erreichbar. Steven ist auch wirklich nett, hat uns alles ganz genau erklärt und sogar Waschmittel für die Waschmaschine besorgt. Alles in allem wirklich empfehlenswert.

First of all, the communication with the host (Steven) was excellent. The arpartment was well equipped, everything you need for self catering. The arpartment seemed to be quite new and the quality of facility was high and comfy. What we liked most, was having breakfast on the balkony, with the stunning view on the ocean (and the silence and privacy). What else to mention...The bathroom is spacy and had a modern shower and sink. The bed was comfortable and also with a mosquito net. From the bed you see the ocean through the big balcony door. In the near (200m) there is a new good equiped shop. There are also some nice beaches in the near, especially the Sunset Beach... Beau Vallon Beach can be reached by car in about 6 minutes. At Beau Vallon there are a few good restaurants for dinner. The only thing, whats a little bit annoying is the steep driveway, like its mentioned in the other comments. Going up there by car is only for hardboiled drivers... But there are 2 parking spots down there, so its not that problem. All in all the price-performance was excellent. 100% recommend, when you have a rental car...

Находимся сейчас в отеле. Заказывали трансфер, Steven встретил, очень быстро добрались. Заселили сразу же, раньше времени. Очень чистый,просторный номер с прекрасным видом с балкона. Укомплектован всем необходимым. Техника вся новая. Управляет отелем большая, дружная семья. Очень добрые люди: Lori, Alen, Lyusia, Steven. Всем огромное спасибо! Все вопросы решаются мгновенно. Угощают фруктами из своего сада.По окончании отдыха дополню отзыв более подробно.

Muy bueno todo excepto el wifi. Se cortaba todo el tiempo y había que llamar al dueño para que lo arregle. La última vez contestó de mala manera que si sabíamos lo caro que era el servicio en la isla. No tengo idea y solo llamè porque directamente no funcionaba...
