A quiet, charming, fantastic location with an absolute stunning view. One of the best interactions you will ever have with Villa staff. And one of the best stays I’ve experienced in quite a while.

Best property to stay at on Mahe in Seychelles as a home away from home. Splendid views over the bay where we saw marine life swim past. What makes the place extra special though is the personnel. They are always available to assist when required.

The villa was amazing, especially for the price, and Hubert is an excellent host! I can’t thank him enough for helping me after I was sick with the worst hangover possible. He took me to get food and made sure I made it to my ferry on time. I highly recommend Sailfish Beach Villas. Thank you again Hubert!

Room with a View!
We booked last minute and we’re not disappointed. We used their airport pick up service and all went smoothly. Waited with fresh iced tea at the owners home. Went for a wade..or swim..the villa is gorgeous with great views and well equipped. The only problem is if you don’t have a car, it is quite a steep trek to the beach. Ordered in, and slept off our jet lag. Highly recommended!

Response from Hubert Bouchereau on Nov 10, 2020
Dear Guest, Thank you for your 'anonymous review'. We are however still able to link your review to your reservation on the Expedia extranet and realise that you were unfortunately unable to stay with us since Seychelles Immigration did not allow you into the country upon your arrival as you were arriving from a country that was not on Seychelles' permitted list of countries then in relation to Covid-19. We learnt about this while waiting for you in the arrivals area of the airport as you had booked one of our airport transfers which we decided not to charge you for, in view of the unfortunate circumstances you faced upon your arrival. On a more positive note, we do hope that you return to Seychelles one day and we hope that we will have the opportunity to welcome you with us then to experience some true warm Creole hospitality. Kind regards, Hubert Bouchereau

Unbelievable view that the pictures cannot capture. Could not recommend Sailfish enough. Hubert was incredibly helpful and made the stay as enjoyable as possible. The southern end of Mahe is fantastic and Anse a la Mouche is a great place to stay if you want to visit beaches like Anse Soleil, Petite Anse, Anse Intendance, etc.

An exceptional host, the most stunning view and huge villa. If you want peace and tranquility and happy to cook this is the place. There is a local market selling veg, fish and supermarkets very close. There are restaurants but they are pricey and I was very happy to cook given the fabulous kitchen facilities and stunning view. Totally private ....book it!

Lovely accommodation but you need to hire a car
This is a beautiful villa and Debbie is really lovely and very helpful. For 35 euro she collected us from the airport and took us to the villa which is on the other side of the island. She offered to stop at the supermarket on the way which we should have done as there are no places within easy walking distance near to the villa. Although there are some buses you really need a car unless you plan to cook for yourself as there were no bars or restaurants nearby. The beaches near the villa are small but lovely although the villa is up a very steep hill if you plan to walk. The villa has a lovely outdoor seating area and balcony off the main bedroom which also has a sea view and aircon. The villa has great facilities including cooker, washing machine, iron and tv. Thank you Debbie for a lovely stay.

Amazing view
Great location if you want to soak up the beauty of the Seychelles and relax away. Amazing view from both balconies, if you are in a group this location can accommodate 4-6 with ease. We enjoyed the villa to ourselves and didn't even use the extra bedroom or bathroom. The staff is friendly and helpful, I'd be looking forward to returning on my next trip to the island. Great value for the location and view.

Great service, what a view
We stayed for 2 nights at start of our trip, very nice experience, although short. Very friendly service (Hubert picked as up at airport late at night, they arranged groceries for us as shops were closed by time we arrived, they helped with car hire at short notice, and gave us good tips on island and places to see). Villas are a bit remote maybe but really in an amazing setting with an epic view, very private and huge! Need car to get around and see beaches (nothing is walking distance from villa) Power was out on island our first night so had some alarm issues in middle of the night which was not great but owners were very quick and willing to help. Great experience and would highly recommend, especially if you are a family or 2 couples.

Beautiful villa stay in Mahe
Beautiful villas that are spacious, clean and stocked with all latest amenities. The villas are far away from the main city and restaurants and it would be advisable to rent a car while staying here The owners are very helpful and welcoming. They contacted me after I booked through hotels.com and provided me with useful tips and advice. They picked me from the airport and also took me shopping for essential items Wifi is provided at additional costs and you repay for amount of data used which can get expensive

Wonderful Villa with a beautiful view over the sea
We hade an amazing time staying at this very spacious villa. The view from the huge balcony was glorious. It had a fully equipped kitchen and large lounge area. The two double bedrooms each had ensuite with bath and shower and a further toilet was there if needed. Debbie Was extremely helpful and nothing was to much trouble. A car is recommended but useful anyway to explore the rest of the beautiful island. Would definitely recommend a stay at Sailfish Villas!!!

More than three star!
This villa was more than we expected for the price we paid. It offered a service individually tailored for you so in fact you could spend more for a personal chef, or massage moving it from a 3 star to 5 star experience if you wished. My friend and I only stayed for a long weekend before she returned to the UK but we would have been happy to stay longer. There was somewhere to wash your clothes as well. All the villas were a good distance apart so it was quiet and felt private. The owners were lovely and checked on us to make sure everything was ok. Debbie provided a map of the local area and talked us through what was available locally in terms of beaches, shops etc.

Luxury self catering accommodation
Self catering villa, very modern, spacious. It is located on the south end of Mahe which is quieter than Beauvallon. The Villa is on the hillside with great views of the bay, there are 6 properties, some are semidetached. This was the best accommodation we had during our stay. The owners are very helpful and the service is good with daily cleaning. The owners speak excellent English and communicate with you in advance of the holiday The beaches are easy to access by car only a short drive, you could walk but if you are staying here you probably do need a car. Can recommend Dive resort Seychelles for scuba/snorkelling and there is a good takeaway. Spice Garden and Chez Plume are good for meals, again need a car

Stunning apartment in paradise
The apartment was breathtakingly beautiful. We had a view over the bay and the ocean from our spacious balcony, and each of our bedrooms had its own balcony. The place is extremely spacious and comfortable and we enjoyed being able to cook a few meals and eat them on the balcony. Debbie and her brother Hubert were also very helpful and friendly, answering all our questions and solving the couple of minor requests we had immediately. Washing machine was a bonus. I wouldn't try renting this place without getting a car, though, as it's on a bit of a hill and your only other option for the island is the local bus. Only minor complaint is that beach towels weren't provided, but not a big deal. An amazing place and I'll stay again if I'm ever back in the Seychelles.

Breathtaking views, amazing villas
I cannot recommend the Sailfish Villas enough! Our host was welcoming and more than happy to help with anything we needed. She arranged our care hire, internet, port transfers, even stopping off at the supermarket so we could get supplies. The villas are huge. There was only 2 of us but 4 people could fit comfortably. The view is breathtaking straight out to the sea. Without a car it is a bit far from anywhere - as the beach is quite a long way down a steep hillside and the climb back is a challenge in the heat! Otherwise I cant recommend these villas enough!

Perfect honeymoon spot!
The Sailfish was a fantastic stay! We were welcomed to a beautiful villa by Debbie, and the entire stay was perfect. The villa was clean and spacious with all of the amenities of home. The location is in an area of the island that is away from the main city which is nice and quiet. We still had access to stores and restaurants, great beaches, and the local fish market. We went with the previous reviewers suggestions and rented a car, which I too suggest. The villa also had a security system which gave peace of mind in leaving our valuables there. Overall it was a relaxing and hassle-free experience and we look forward to going back.

Bonne qualité mais pas d'accès direct à la plage
Logement de très bonne qualité, avec une belle vue Ance Lamouche. Nous avions la villa n°3 toute équipée avec 2 chambres, un grand séjour salon et une terrasse. Seul reproche le mot Beach dans le nom pourrait faire penser que nous sommes au bord de la plage, en fait les villa sont à flanc de colline et de l'autre coté de la route, avec une bonne pente pour y accéder, une voiture semble nécessaire pour séjourner à cet endroit

Villa mit Aussicht
Die Villas liegen im Ort Port Glaud an der Westküste. Die Rezeption liegt auf dem Niveau der Straße. Die Villas liegen am Hang. Man erreicht sie über eine steilen Weg. Also viel Gas geben und Klimaanlage ausschalten. Die kleinen Mietwagen auf den Inseln sind nicht so leistungsstark. der Emfang durch Theresa war ungewohnt geschäftsmäßig und kühl. Ungewohnt bei den sonst sehr freundlichen Seychellois. Die Villas stellen Strandtücher zur Verfügung, die man an der Rezeption mitnehmen und tauschen kann. Unsere Villa war geräumig, hatte eine große Terrasse mit einem tollen Blick auf die Bucht. Großes Bett mit gutem Liegkomfort. Walk-In-Dusche im Bad. Die Einrichtung ist ansprechend, aber die Sitzmöbel empfanden wir persönlich als unbequem. Traumhaft der gemeinschaftliche Pool. Leider gab es nur auf einer Liege eine Polsterauflage. Der Sonnenschirm war defekt und konnte nicht aufgespannt werden. Der Garten und die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt. Für diese Unterkunft ist ein Fahrzeug sehr zu empfehlen. der nächste schöne Strand ist ca. 3 km entfernt.
