STORY Seychelles | Resort in Beau Vallon

“We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Story Seychelles and can recommend this hotel without hesitation. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed so warmly and made to feel genuinely cared for throughout our entire stay. The hotel itself is simply stunning: a beautiful, very well-maintained property in an amazing location, with a relaxed and luxurious atmosphere. Our room was spotless every single day — exceptionally clean, comfortable, and beautifully prepared. What truly made the experience special was the incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional staff. Everyone was welcoming, helpful, and always had a smile. You can really feel how much effort the whole team puts into making guests feel at home. The food was excellent as well. The restaurants offer very high quality, and every meal was enjoyable. A special recommendation goes to Seyshima: the live cooking experience was outstanding and definitely one of the highlights of our stay. Overall, Story Seychelles gave us an unforgettable holiday. Everything was sensational — the hotel, the service, the cleanliness, the food, and the beautiful surroundings. We would return anytime and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly special stay in the Seychelles.”

“Relaxing resort in a beautiful beach front atmosphere surrounded by mountains. The staff was very friendly, accommodating and the property is well maintained. The location is more convenient than the Four Seasons of you’re looking to explore Mahe and take a trip to La Digue and Praslin.”

“Amazing Hotel Amazing staff Best Hotel in the Seychelles so far The service is 100/10 Andrew helped us a lot!! All staff are super friendly We didn't have to get out of the resort because they have everything to chill! Every night new events! Will definitely come back!”

“First thing you do - check all reviews online for truthfulness. About 90% of all existing reviews of this place on TA are written by accounts that have one posting. Draw your conclusions accordingly. At the hotel check-in was friendly, room (Beach Villa with plunge pool) was clean, functional, nothing posh. Fixtures worn out, water pressure soso..the place was run as Hilton before and so the setup still makes sense, but the new owners probably never ran a 5star under competition before. When you take a closer look you will see things are worn out. Food was a straightforward disaster except the onsite Japanese place. Breakfast did mange to go south every day and the wine list is a bummer..staff is non attentive nor trained, good half forgets orders and the food is cheapest wholesale (we went to other places and were able to get the quality we were looking for at half price, still overpriced but at spot). They seemingly try to make 10x margin on everything they sell to you. Food quality is at best 3star. To be fair staff is trying their best but probably it´s worth considering to hire ONE international senior chef into the team if 90% of guests are international. The "Pina Colada" i got at 8pm looked exactly same at 8am next day, with the foam still there, talk about no preservatives added :-)) I am feeling sad for those who saved to make such trip. I just lost a week i could have spend in NYC or elsewhere. Go Four Seasons and sleep well. That said, Good Bye and Good Luck.”

“We recently returned to Story Hotel Seychelles for the third year in a row, and it continues to impress us every time. With its incredible location right on Beau Vallon Beach, it truly is a fantastic place to stay. The hotel offers a lovely pool area, a beautiful overall atmosphere, and outstanding restaurants. We especially love Seyshima and Trader Vic’s—both deliver exceptional dining experiences. A special mention goes to Tanya and the rest of the team at Seyshima, who are absolutely amazing. The service is impeccable, and the food is simply magical. We also noticed and appreciated some great improvements this year. The addition of refrigerators in the breakfast area is a nice touch, and we were very happy to see that the issue with pigeons—something we found disturbing last year—has been resolved. It’s also great to see that the hotel is investing in upgrades, such as new sunbeds, which helps maintain its high standard. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and we particularly enjoy the lovely balcony that comes with them. All in all, this hotel continues to deliver a wonderful experience, and we will most certainly be back for a fourth visit!”

“Staff: Super friendly. Prices for food & drinks: a bit overpriced. Cleanliness: Exzellent. ”

“A good hotel but struggled a bit with guest numbers over New Year. ”

“yes, the hotel is very good, yet the restaurants are mediocre and extemely pricy. I was expecting a pre-paid taxi driver to wait for me at the airport - that didnot happen to my disapointment”

“Staff very nice ”

“Beautiful hotel and rooms. Walkable to the only “town” on Mahe. Great beach and perfect pool. Yummy breakfast. Great relaxing spa. 35 min to airport!”
