JA Enchanted Island Resort Seychelles

Well, we had an amazing 2 weeks, just what we wanted ... Total relaxation! We couldn't really couldn't fault it. A very small island, with only 13 rooms, this means there is also a small "intimate" staff team, that you get to know and they get to know you (and REALLY look after you). With two weeks eating in the same restaurant (apart from lunch on a few days out) You would think you might get board with the menu, but you just don't! it is varied and wide, (and we don't eat meat!!) and nothing is too much trouble to change if you ask Go half board, that's our advice! Location is just out of this world, we sent a picture of our view from our window home to family, and people in the UK thought it was AI generated! The hotel is in the middle of the Seychelles National Marine park, we were on the West side, which we think is the best to stay, but, as all beaches are public, the West side can be slightly well visited on Saturdays and Sundays. As with other private islands we have visited, you are pleasantly "captive" and so food and drink extras are expensive, but you have to understand that they have supply challenges, and if you can afford to stay.... You can afford to pay!! There is a very limited little gift shop which we think takes prices to a whole new level, but you don't have to shop there, Victoria is only 20 mins by boat and taxi and a great town to shop and eat. Take a Kayak to Moyenne for a walk and lunch (Kayaks are free at the hotel... Pre book to be sure they are available! If you are looking for total relaxation, or a few days experiencing island life, this is a lovely place. It has a gym, which we used most days, very small, but then with only 13 rooms your chances of sharing it with somebody else are very slim !! And from the Manager all the way through, management, reception, restaurant staff, room service, pool staff, gardeners, Boat crews, .....ALL the staff were lovely to us! PS ....If you get the chance go to the spa..... We tried it all too late! It was a great massage
