Le Meridien Fisherman's Cove - Mahe Island

Very friendly staff. Accessible to main market with bus stop right outside the hotel. Beautiful villas with breathtaking views. 5 to 10 min walk to nearby (few) restaurants.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Overall the property and staff were very nice. Be sure to specify that ocean view means ocean view. Johnny the bell man, and Yva front desk were awesome and so helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Excellent location close to a great beach and so some (basic) shops and restaurants. Some good spots for snorkeling. Junior suite well equipped and preserving intimacy from neighbours. Good, friendly staff. One (importantt) drawback : the exchange rate applied by that hotel is badly unrealistic.

My wife and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary in the Seychelles. We stayed at the Le Merridian Fishman's Cove. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Our accomodations were superb and the staff was very warm and friendly. Special Thanks goes to Julia at the front desk.

Good location. A little dated but lovely, helpful staff. Food and drinks very expensive. Close to other cheaper places to eat but the island is unlikely to win awards for culinary delights!

This is a fabulous hotel set in lovely grounds in a great location. Although no beach of its own there was easy access to a beautiful public beach. Our air-conditioned junior suite was excellent with a view and small terrace area overlooking the sea which was just a few meters away. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our week's stay and […] made us feel welcome and special. The buffet breakfast had a wide range of options and set us up for the day; the al-la-carte restaurant with excellent food with both restaurant areas and bar open to the air with sea views. Staying at Le Meridian Fisherman's Cove, Seychelles was a truly relaxing holiday experience and one that we look forward to enjoying again. Read more

Decent hotel ideally located at the end of the open public beach which meant you avoid the crowded areas of the 1 or 2 km long beach which is shared by a few other hotels and independent restaurants. Daily walks along the beach after a meal helped digest food and allows you to see and meet locals having get togethers and parties on your way. Also conveniently […] located along the number 21 bus route (from town) which takes 15 minutes and costs only 5 rupees each. The hotel was quite expensive but you do get good quality service without feeling crowded. Despite making a request for a late check-out at booking, I was surprised to see extortionate (upto Euros 300) charges for late checkouts which were very unreasonable, considering we had spent 4 already expensive nights there. Free WiFi is available only in the lobby but that's better than most hotels. Breakfast was as expected for the hotel, tastes good but not too creative in its choices. Pool is ok but very cold, which was why no one was swimming when I was there. We did have an issue with our room lock which took too long to fix but the manager did send me a complimentary bottle of wine as an apology. Although I don't drink alcohol, the gesture was much appreciated, especially after changing it for a non-alcoholic bottle. Generally the hotel is good with all expected amenities available, friendly staff and decent location however it did feel overpriced which will probably mean I will be looking at other hotels next time.

Wonderful location looking north from Beau Vallon. Close enough to Victoria to be convenient but far enough away to be thoroughly quiet and enjoyable. Quiet and excellent amenities. Several good restaurants nearby and easy access to a great beach and several good dive shops. Beautiful property and setting.

The Hotel is very nice the view that you see everywhere is amazing ,the staff is too friendly but you also have to visit 2 other islands in Sychelles which are praslin and la digue.

A beautiful setting on a spectacular island. This hotel is set on a quiet beach within walking distance of great local seaside restaurants. Eat at the local restaurants and not at the hotel as the food there, while good, is extremely expensive. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is very calming and peaceful. If you want to see the island, […] hire a taxi for the day; see the front desk staff and then bargain with the various drivers to get the best price. Downtown Victoria, an easy local bus ride away, is very small, touting itself as the smallest capital city in the world and doesn't have much to see or do. Half a day there is plenty. Overal a great place to get away and simply relax and enjoy a fairly unspoiled tropical island. Read more

I was travelling with my son, the rooms are all for couples with a beautiful but pretty unpractical shower middle in the room. The view was beautiful, the breakfast buffet, pretty varied, with healthy food, fresh fruits and juices and nice smoked fish and cheeses ...however the evening atmosphere was very poor, we could not enter any of the hotel restaurants […] in casual look, which we expect in a beach place ...we wanted to feel comfortable and not like in the City Business Life ...The people cleaning the room, constantly were forgetting to replace one or the other needed stuff, and we had to call for that.

For dinner we looked for other restaurants in the region, cause was not funny to stay there .. Cherers, V and A Read more

It was our first time in Seychelles. We went to Seychelles for our honeymoon. We were choosing between Fisherman's Cove and Hilton. We went for Fisherman's Cove, which was a bit cheaper, and did not regret it. The hotel is very conveniently located. The beautiful Beau Vallon beach is five minutes walk from the hotel premises. Victoria is 10 minutes […] drive. The hotel service exceeded our expectations. The staff spoke good English. They were very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was delicious. Complimentary tea with pancakes and cookies was very much appreciated. Dinners at Le Bourjeois restaurant by a Mauritian chef were exceptional. Free WiFi was available in the lobby and Cocoloba Bar. Thai massage with yoga elements by Sheila and sports massage by Sabrina at the SPA center was very relaxing and healthy. Our room was spacious and we had a good ocean view. Among the shortcomings: (a) we had a tile floor, I prefer carpets or wood; (b) the design of the room was pretentious but not functional, the shower was located almost in the center of the room and each time we took shower half of our room was covered in water; (c) one of the sinks kept getting stuck, the staff could not fix it; (d) at the end of our stay the water tank in the toilet broke. All in all, we paid a substantial amount of money for our honeymoon but the hotel was definitely a very good value. Read more

The hotel is situated at the end of the lovely Beau Vallon beach with it's own private access. It is a beautiful hotel built in a local style with impressive makuti roofed reception. Rooms are nicely furnished, clean, comfortable and modern in style iwht all the usual facilities (fridge, toiletries etc). The two restaurants provide excellent (if a little […] expensive outside of meal plans!) food and drinks - cocktails definitely worth it! We particularly enjoyed the buffet breakfast and complimentary afternoon tea served on the 'pier'. There are themed evenings in the main restaurant each evenings and we really enjoyed the creole themed night. The hotel is well situated for walks along the beach and several other good restaurants are within easy reach. My only criticism would be that the housekeeping department seemed a little disorganised so rooms were a little late being serviced in the morning and sometimes towels had to be delivered later which could be inconvenient. However, the housekeeping staff were charming so difficult to be too critical of them! All in all a lovely hotel which we would definitely return to! Read more

My stay was wonderful, the service excellent and friendly and the location very beautiful. For guests waiting for a late plane who had checked out of their rooms (so couldn't have room service) a choice of small meals like omelettes and simple sandwiches available all evening until late would be good.

Lovely time

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Great location, excellent rooms, although a decent beach was a 5 minute walk from Le Meridien's rocky beach. Very nice infinity pool and great views towards Morne Seychelloise and local Beau Vallon resorts. Meals and drinks in the hotel were VERY expensive and a very limited pool bar menu - only 6 choices! Free tea-time cakes and pancakes every day […] however! The Seychelles is expensive when it comes to eating in hotels or larger restaurants - similar to London prices, but, slightly lower prices in smaller local places. Take Euros as nearly all the shops etc., accept them. Get local currency from banks rather than hotel - better rates. Staff for the most part were very helpful, including Dave round the pool and especially Deputy Manager Connor, who upgraded us when we arrived very early as our room wasn't quite ready. Connor also checked how we were managing with our 19 month old daughter and did all he could to make our stay comfortable and pleasant. Short taxi ride to Victoria - but check fare beforehand with reception and then taxi driver as they sometimes 'vary'! Best food was local red snapper - not like the Caribbean version at all and the octopus curry - tender and tasty! We did a personal tour round the island - £120 which was a bit expensive but worth it for the air-conditioned MPV and stopping when and where WE wanted. Would recommend Le Meridien in Fisherman's Cove as a very decent and comfortable hotel. Read more

Went to Seychelles for a remarkable experience, and chose this hotel after seeing reviews on expedia.Great location , right on the beach although the pool was small but was good just to relax in. The breakfast was a buffet lots of options couldnt ask for much more variety than that. dinner on the other hand was expensive at 50 euros per person, but […] if your a big eater its money well spent, delicious and 5 star food. Room was good very big with 2 big screen tvs, although we were always short on towels and had to call room service , but no big deal really. the grounds the hotel and foyer and rooms was all great.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Overall we were not impressed by this hotel although the position/view from the foyer is great. We were put in a room that had not been cleaned properly, used soap/cigarette buts/waste paper/floor sticky! It took 45 minutes to get another room, bad start. Free fruit/wine was nice but a clean room first up would have been better. The shower splashes […] water all over the floor, there was very little hot water, I complained but it stayed the same and we were given no feedback. The towels kept changing from bath sheet to bath towel and the hand towels were removed during the day and not replaced until the next day. The glass brick wall allowed bright light in the room at night. The outside balcony had bird droppings all over the railing. The sliding wardrobe doors were sticky and you had to hold them closed in order to open the draws that were positioned in between the 2 doors. There was a sliding curtain partition in the middle of the room that must never be used as it was broken. The entrance to the rooms is via the car park and it is rough concrete and looks like a service entrance. Service was not too bad although the breakfast milk was off one day. Food prices too high. In room internet outrageous but you can log on for free in the lobby (everyone did). The pool, bar and general outlook are good but the condition of the rooms and the cleaning suggest management problems, Maybe the beach villas are better but at the price try the Hilton you will not be disappointed there!

Fisherman's Cove is a comfortable hotel at one end of Beau Vallon beach. It has no beach of its own but is a short walk from the sands of Beau Vallon. The hotel is well appointed, staff are friendly, and our room (Hibiscus) was wonderfully luxurious. The drawback for us (on b&b) was the price of the food. The buffet dinner was about £45 each (without […] drinks) and the alternative Le Bourgeois restaurant nearly as expensive (though we tried this - and it was extremely good). Snacks and drinks in the bars are also highly priced - so if you're watching the pennies then you will be worried by this. However, the bar snacks are big enough to share - so do that! There are several much cheaper restaurants down the road - the beach side bar at the Coral Strand is very reasonable and good quality. Back at the hotel, it is easy to while away the day relaxing at the excellent pool, or just chilling on the lounger on your room terrace. But, if like us you like to see more, then do hire a car (at the airport, or the hotel can arrange). There are many things to see on the island - superb beaches, mountains, villages, giant tortoises - and having a car is the only way to see them. The old stories about everything being payable in dollars and euros is no longer true. There is a new policy of everything having to be priced in Rupees - though you can ask to pay in another currency if you wish. In local shops, though, this might cause some confusion! You can pick up rupees at the airport. Read more

我们订的是高级海景房，价格在同级酒店里算是比较实惠的。房间很舒适，印象最深的是开放式的淋浴区域。早餐挺好的，下午四点到五点还有免费的下午茶。酒店很安静，离沙滩也很近。只是有一天我们吃完早餐在酒店散了会儿步，没想到那么早打扫房间，就没有放小费，结果当天就只是打扫了房间没有给水。不知二者是否有联系，后来电话前台又补上了。总体来说还不错！值得推荐。

Es war ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt (1 Woche) und die 5 Sterne sind berechtigt. Wir haben ein Zimmer-upgrade erhalten, was sehr nett war.

Sehr angenehm war der Empfang der Hoteldirektion, […] der an jedem Dienstag stattfindet und leider viel zu wenig von den Gästen wahrgenommen wird. Das Personal von Restaurant, Pool, SPA-Bereich und Rezeption war sehr freundlich, was in anderen Hotels der Seychellen leider keine Selbstverständichkeit ist. Das Hotel verfügt über eigene Wasserspeicher, sodass man 24 Std. am Tag Wasser hat. In der aktuellen Trockenzeit ist die Wasserversorgung auf den Seychellen sehr eingeschränkt (auf Mahé gibt es nur 5 Std. am Tag Wasser). Read more

Wer Ruhe sucht und seinen Honeymoon geniessen will, ist hier definitiv am falschen Ort! Nach zwei unglaublich schönen und vor allem ruhigen Inseln und Hotels wurden wir erstmal arg enttäuscht: Die Beau Vallon Bucht mag für jeden anderen Urlaub toll sein, für Honeymooners ist er jedoch nix!!! Es ist lebhaft und laut (extrem laute Musik vom Coral Strand […] Hotel hört man überall, sogar im weiter weg gelegenen Spa-Bereich bei der Massage!). Als Honeymooners wurden wir nicht speziell begrüsst, nicht mal ein Willkommensdrink oder hübsche Deko od. ähnliches. Dies war sehr enttäuschend, hatten wir nämlich verschiedenste Überraschungen im Coco de Mer auf Praslin oder im Domaine de l`Orangeraie auf La Digue. Die Deluxe Zimmer sind gross, die Privatsphäre ist garantiert und sie bieten einen schönen Blick auf den Pool und das Meer. Sie sind jedoch kahl und lieblos eingerichtet und das ständige Bumbum vom Coral Strand Hotel (ab Mittag bis in die frühen Morgenstunden), sowie der Lärm der Klimaanlage führen nicht zu einem ruhigen Schlaf. Zudem sind die Betten durchgelegen, Schranktüren sind abgenutzt, Oberflächen zerkatzt etc. Definitiv keine 5* Zimmer. Der Zimmerservice war okay, machte sich aber nie die Mühe Tücher oder Betten schön herzurichten oder gar zu dekorieren. Read more

Sehr sauberes, luxuriöses Hotel mit sehr zuvorkommenden Personal. Die offene Dusche im Zimmer ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, entschädigt wird man aber durch den Blick aufs Meer währen des Duschens.

Die Hotelgäste kamen überwiegend aus Frankreich, Italien, Schweiz und Deutschland. Für Paare und auch für Familien mit kleinen Kindern ein ausgezeichnetes Hotel, für Eltern mit Kindern im Teeenager-Alter weniger geeignet (wir haben unsere drei vorsichtshalber zu Hause gelassen) da für diese Altersgruppe keine Animation oder ähnliches vorgesehen ist, ein Club-Urlaub ist in dem Fall wohl ansprechender.

En fin ferie og et bra hotel. Meget serviceinnstilte gjester. Bra rom men vi var ikke så begeistret for den åpne rom løsningen. For mye vannsøl i rommet og for lite avstengning av dusj. Toalettdør for enkel, ingen lyd og lukt isolering. Ordning med skap-skyvedører tungvint. Bra mat og til tider bra underholdning i hovedrestauranten. A`la carte restauranten […] hadde så dårlig besøk at en ble sittende nesten alene. En av dusjene i bassenget ble aldri reparert på mer enn en uke så folk dusjet ikke før og etter at de brukte bassenget. Ikke så bra. Dessuten mener vi at hotellet bør kontrollere misbruk av de beste hvilesengene rundt bassenget. Det bør ikke være anledning til å sikre seg en seng ved å legge et håndkle eller annet der tidlig om morgenen for så nesten ikke bruke sengen gjennom dagen. Vi har ellers ikke problemer med å anbefale hotellet. DM Norge Read more
