A fantastic destination
Seychelles between 3 Apr 2011 and 14 Apr 2011
"As mentioned previously, some requests to Mason's Travel didn't get implimented - their internal communication leaves a lot to be desired.
The Seychelles are a dream destination, although the romantic this or the romantic that does get a wee bit overpowering at times.
There are some visitors who go for the exceptional birds and other wildlife, as well as the snorkelling etc. and the Seychelles fully lived up to those expectations.
The suggestions made by Lucy Copson on choice of island to visit and where to stay were spot on."

"1. The welcome was exceptionally friendly and the owners were extremely helpful and informative by providing maps and suggestions on where to visit.
2. The free wi-fi was much appreciated.
3. The quality of the room was excellent and the standard of cleaning was very high.
4. The food was very good with particularly good use of fresh and local produce. Breakfasts were feshly prepared and very tasty.
5. Having dinner together with the owners and other guest was particularly pleasant and enjoyable.
6. It would be quite difficult to find the site on your own so being collected by the owner was desirable and appreciated.
7. Being able to hire a car from the site was a bonus.
8. Made an interesting contrast to the Coco de Mer Hotel, in terms of location and intimacy."

2. The food was very good. The a la carte menu was good, but perhaps a little lacking in variety. The buiffets were excellent and vey well presented. Breakfasts were very good and the poolside drinks and lunch were good.
3. Service in the restaurant was very good and the provision of equipment (eg snorkelling mask etc.) was appreciated.
4. The only minor complaint was that shampoo and shower gel was not replaced as it was used - we had to ask for more and on one ocassion had to ask twice before it was provided.
5. Staff were welcoming, helpful and friendly.
6. The location was good and the private beach gave a very relaxing feel.
7. Made an interesting contrast to the Sans Souci geusthouse in terms of its beach side location."
