Ocean View Villa

We were 14 people across both villas, and the setting initially seemed ideal for a big group. Beau Vallon beach, shops and restaurants are within walking distance, and the kitchens have what you need to cook. There’s also a small beach beside the waterfront property. But the villas badly need renovation, and we found cockroaches in both kitchens. Our main concern was what happened on September 10th, 2025. My wife had left her bag on a hook behind the curtains in our bedroom overnight while we were in the room. In the morning, her bag and mine were downstairs on the living room table, with the money missing. A living room door was broken too. We contacted Peter, who took an hour to respond and come over. His first question was where the security guard had been the night before. A guard had appeared on our first night and said he’d stay for our safety, but only appeared again on the second night and never returned. Peter called the police and someone from the security company, and we lost the day dealing with it. While the police waited outside the gate, Peter and the company representative whispered urgently to each other, then took about five minutes to open it. Peter also tried to persuade the police that we’d staged the theft for an insurance claim. We had no insurance for theft or lost money, and with 14 of us, including children, we had neither time nor reason to stage anything. I’ve attached part of the police statement for anyone who doubts us. There’s something strange going on here. Peter never checked whether we were okay or needed anything, and I’d give his hospitality zero stars if I could. If you stay, watch your valuables closely and make sure any promised overnight guard actually shows up every night.

Peter was kind to us, and the villa had a roomy terrace and everything we needed for a pleasant stay. You’re right by the beach and close to the restaurants and shops in Beau Valon.

There’s a small local market nearby for fresh fish and fruit, along with some restaurants. We stayed a week and had no problems with our belongings, so I don’t think the Italian family’s story is true. The villa itself was just right, with everything we wanted, a lovely view and wonderful sunsets. Highly recommend.

Petr was really helpful with suggestions for food and things to do. We spent eight nights here and found it magical despite the roaches, which hid in the kitchen cupboards. The villa seemed quite clean to me, and I understand cockroaches are common in Seychelles. They do extermination cleaning three times a year, but the roaches come back. The location is lovely, right by Beau Vallon’s main beach, with access to a pretty little beach that’s usually empty. The view is beautiful and it’s comfortable to sit outside. The bedroom air-conditioning felt a bit too cold even with the temperature set high, though maybe that’s just me. I can see us returning, probably to the same villa.
