Touchdown Villa

Wir hatten die Unterkunft für eine Nacht vor dem Abflug genutzt. Von der Terrasse hatte man einen guten Blick auf den Flughafen. Die Unterkunft liegt auf einem Berg und ist an einigen Stellen recht steil. Die Unterkunft war sauber und sehr geräumig. Die Eigentümerin hat uns netterweise noch zum Flughafen gefahren. Würde ich wieder buchen

I made the mistake of booking this place for my last night in Mahé, thinking it would be great to be so close to the airport. It was mediocre at best. Pros: - large villa - close to the airport - the host is friendly Cons: - check-in routine non existent when booking through Hotels.com (I had to ask the neighbor who luckily knew where the key was. Beware to send the host an email BEFORE arriving as there is no reception) - barely any cleaning done (used towels are flying around all parts of the house, no trash is emptied, there is food in the fridge - the area is OK but not much to do or see and there is massive construction blocking the entire view - infested with lizards/geckos (more than any other place i've been in Mahé) - airport transfer is apparently dependent on the host's work schedule (I ended up having to walk to the airport. For 1 person it's okay, it is only about 500m, but for a family with small kids and luggage probably not) If you have the same plan I had, just stay in your accommodation and add 30 mins for buffer when transfering the next day.

Great house close to the airport.

Jill was marvelous. Picked us up late at the airport and took us early to fly out. House is very nice. My husband fell and the stairs were a little difficult. Lots of dogs and rooster crowing early. Room was wonderful and very tastefully decorated. Jill was a pleasure!!

BEWARE I made a booking via Expedia and the property owner later informed me that there were no rooms available after our ferry had already landed in Mahe. We were stranded at the ferry terminal with no where to go at 10pm at night. I asked the owner to refund me and there has still been no refund issued!! Please check with them first before making a booking is my only advise!! This happened to us multiple times in Seychelles where property owners false advertised availability or rooms weren’t ready for us upon arrival.
