Seychelles SEYCHELLES

We spent the first two weeks of October at Club Med Seychelles, and the Mini Club was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our stay!

Our 4-year-old daughter absolutely loved every minute of it. Thanks to the wonderfully varied, creative and engaging programme, she had the opportunity to discover so many new things, try exciting activities and make unforgettable experiences.

What truly made the difference, though, was the incredible team. The staff were exceptionally warm, caring, attentive and enthusiastic. They created such a welcoming and happy environment that our daughter felt completely at home from the very beginning.

In fact, she got to the point where she didn’t want to spend time with us anymore – she just wanted to go back to the Mini Club! That says it all. As parents, it was wonderful to see her so happy, confident and excited every single day.

And when the time came to say goodbye, there were big tears – and not just a few! That probably says more than any review ever could.

Without a doubt, this is the BEST kids club we have experienced so far. A huge thank you to the entire team for your kindness, dedication, energy and for making our daughter’s holiday so incredibly special.

Julia, Olivia, Kévin, Patricia, Stacey,

You created memories she will cherish for a long time. We couldn’t recommend the Mini Club more highly! ❤️

Beautiful setting, brilliant app, service needs work

Club Med Seychelles is a lovely resort with picture-perfect scenery. The connecting rooms were ideal for families, and the resort felt completely safe, as did the whole island.

The resort app is one of the best in the business. It's easy to use and lists activities running all day. 10/10 for the app.

The food was some of the best I've had at an all-inclusive. My one criticism is that even the spicy dishes were toned down for French tastes.

A few things I'd improve:

1. The service isn't five-star yet. The staff are lovely, but you often have to prompt them, and they seem overworked. This needs to come from the top: more staff, shorter shifts, silver service training, and waiter service at the pool and beach.
2. Every bathroom should have a bidet spray. Relying on toilet paper alone was a surprise in a tropical destination.
3. None of the resort's public washrooms had hooks. That makes it awkward to change for lunch after a swim.
4. The room toiletries didn't feel luxurious. Seychelles is known for its natural products, and the rooms should reflect that.
5. The entertainment team was great but looked stretched. The club song and dance played on repeat. Once or twice a day is enough before normal music resumes.
6. Everything leaned heavily towards French guests. That's understandable, as it's a French-speaking island and most guests were French, but it could be more balanced.
7. Premium drinks were overpriced, and some weren't really premium. Monkey Shoulder is a blended malt, yet it carried a premium charge. Proper single malts should be the premium offer.
