Basic, butvalue considering the price
Lovely staff and friendly people. But the room was very dated and quite gross. We only stayed here as it was close to the airport as we had an early flight. No nice beach near by and there is a bar up the road which has very slow service

Short but enjoyable stay
Only there for one night. The ladies on reception were fantastic! So friendly and helpful! The room was huge and well furnished. Bathroom was disappointing. Aircon in main bedroom leaked to begin with, but fixed as soon as we reported it. A bit too close to the busy main road for a long stay, but perfect for our requirements

Review of reef apartment seychelles
The apartment was clean but the place requires some paint and few repairs inside. The electric cooker was faulty. One of the ring did not work fully and the other one did not work at all. There was a lack of basic kitchen utensils. The workers and receptionist were very helpful and kind.the hotel needs to have info of bus facilities , organized tours and an album or leaflets of places of interest as well as contact numbers.

Close to the beach but horrible.
I stayed only a night. I didn't expect much. It was located close from the airport, beach and easy to find. However, staying here was not a fond memory. The room was large, had a little kitchenette, the bed was clean. However, the shower head was hanging on a tube to the water heater, not fixed on the wall. Later, I found a big spider and killed it with my shoe. The leg span was good 3 inches long. The body was about a quarter coin size. Some lizards but didn't care anymore...

Very good family apartments. Veronique great cook
We only stayed a couple of days - rest of time on Praslin. The 2-bedroom apartment was just fine, clean and nicely equipped, and you should give Veronique a chance to show you what a good cook she is - great value (Friday is her day off). I've given medium ratings because we usually stay in high-end luxury properties, so by comparison this wasn't luxurious, but we wanted this beach especially for the calm shallow lagoon for a few days, and this was perfect, as well as being close to airport. It is worth hiring a car at the airport rather than getting a taxi - they drive on the left, and quite slowly.

Wonderful stay
We stayed in there for 8 nights and we liked the hotel, the room, the location, the beach across the road. The breakfast was good and enough to start the day. The housekeeping was great. The room was spotless. Everyone from the staff was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed every day! Thank you!

I found the hotel to be ideal for my weeklong business trip, all I needed at a reasonable price. Natalie and staff were friendly and helpful, since I arrived late I called ahead to advise and still received a warm welcome. Simple, functional yet comfortable

We stayed at Reef Apartment for 10 days. It was great and we satisfied the hotel service. Rooms are clean and the hotel is located close to the airport. The only downside it is far from the downtown and restraunts. The people who works at the reception are amazing and very friendly.

Very nice if basic
Very large, comfortable room (powerful AC!) and right across the street from the ocean. The highway can be a bit loud as it is right in front and there are almost no restaurants nearby, but the bus comes by frequently and is easy to use. The staff was superb - very friendly and attentive.

Warm, friendly staff makes this place shine!
We spent 6 out of our 7 days in the Seychelles at Reef Holiday Apartments and were thoroughly impressed by the kindness and helpfulness of David and Veronique. Hotel staff were always on hand to assist with questions and anything we needed. On our final day - my birthday, Veronique left a birthday message on my bed made with flowers which was lovely! Rooms are clean, spacious - simple yet comfortable. Rooms include air con, TV and we managed to get access to wifi in the hotels reception area. Great little hotel, especially for those on a budget. We really enjoyed our time here and would happily recommend it.

The apartments are ok. The kitchen facilities are good. There are lizards in the rooms which scared the kids. Towels are not changed daily unless asked for. Pool is very small for the number of apts/ guests. There is no proper beach opposite the hotel.

Good if you are on a budget
It is an okay hotel to stay at if you are on a budget, This was the thrid and final hotel I stayed at while on the island after spending 2 weeks in the Seychelles and I used this hotel while I waited for my flight out. It is just under 10 minute drive to the airport which was perfect for me. The hotel staff were very accomodating as they allowed me to stow some luggage there for a week as my friend and I travelled to Praslin Island. Room was adequate enough for what I needed although no internet in the room which seemed to be the case for many hotels on the islands. I didn't use any of the hotel services so I can't comment on it but the staff were friendly and quite helpful.
