DoubleTree by Hilton Seychelles - Allamanda Resort and Spa

Nice hotel in good shape on Mahe. Cool infinity pool, spacious, clean rooms. Good food (breakfast and dinner). Very friendly and helpful staff at reception. Special thanks to Jordan of the service team. Very friendly, super fast service and accommodating. Beach is ok - there are better one's in Seychelles. And, some more sun-beds on the beach would be nice. Or simply remove towels from supposedly 'reserved' sun-beds where people do not show-up for hours.

We stayed here as a family with our 4-month-old baby and honestly couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming experience. From the moment we arrived, everyone made us feel so at ease. A special thank-you to Joy, who makes the best omelettes every morning, and Nile, who was always so attentive with drinks and making sure we were comfortable. All the staff were genuinely kind and really sweet with our baby, which meant a lot to us. The rooms were kept clean to a good standard and the beach was literally right on our doorstep. Definitely take a walk up to the rocks – the view is amazing from there. The food was great too, with a different theme each night, so there was always something new to try. We didn’t venture out much during our stay — it really felt like the perfect place to unwind. If you’re looking for a relaxing, easy holiday where you can just switch off and enjoy the surroundings, this is ideal. We left feeling like we’d been part of a lovely little community.

We had been here in November 2025. We had opted for an all inclusive package. The location of the hotel is very scenic. The beach is clean and private, swimming in the ocean is a joy here. The room (303) was standard, but the view was fantastic. Views of sunrise on the ocean everyday. One of the double sinks in the bathroom was leaking below, so we just didn't use that. The complimentary toilet products were of a good quality. We had been there for a special occasion, and the room was made up especially well for that day. The breakfast buffet is extensive and tasty. The lunch menu is ala carte, and has great options. The restaurant staff were very courteous and attentive. They sat us at a well decorated table at dinner for the special occasion. The wifi was good in the rooms. That's about all the plus points for this hotel. The drinks served were watered down and just filled with ice. The cocktails had absolutely no alcohol in them. Special mention of Mr. Binay, restaurant manager, who is an expert at sweet talking, but forgets to put expensive ingredients and alcohol in ALL the drinks he makes. The food at dinner buffet was quite salty, and even though there were many dishes, we could not eat well because of the amount of salt in each one. The staff reception are attentive and courteous on arrival, but cool down quickly, and barely get the job done by check out time. They did not even help us with our luggage. Forget about trying for a late checkout. It's a flat no. They were so abrupt in refusing us, that we cancelled a spa appointment we had booked. We will definitely NOT be staying at this hotel again.

We’ve spent 7 amazing days at this hotel. The food has been delicious and different every day. The view from the room’s balcony was gorgeous. Very quiet and relaxing place. The beach is like from the advertisement. The staff has been friendly and helpful, especially Tolera. I also enjoyed visiting the gym every morning with the panoramic ocean view. Thank you so much DoubleTree!

We, a family of five, stayed here for our vacation in October and overall had a very pleasant experience, though with a few inconsistencies. The positives The hotel features a beautiful pool area with plenty of sunbeds and umbrellas, and the beach just below is stunning and calm, with some opportunities for snorkeling (though the current can be a bit strong at times). The gym is decently equipped for a resort — free weights, a bench, and a few cardio machines. The rooms are spacious, modern, and of high standard, with a wonderful ocean view. The in-room coffee machine, quality toiletries, and clean towels added to a comfortable stay. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options, and the restaurant area is large and pleasant. Staff were consistently friendly and service-minded, and they genuinely tried to make things right whenever something went wrong. Areas for improvement The hotel is not new so there are some small details that could require some touch up to complete the aesthetics of the place, nothing serious though. The food quality was quite uneven. During our five dinners, the buffet was good on three occasions but disappointing on the others. Meals ordered from the kids’ menu took a long time to arrive, which made it difficult for families to eat together. One evening, the hotel hosted a live band in the restaurant, but the volume was so loud that it was impossible to have a conversation. My recommendation would be to book breakfast only and then choose dinners based on the evening menu, or try nearby options. There’s a nice, simple pizzeria/local restaurant just across the road from the hotel that’s well worth a visit. During our stay, one of the two elevators was out of order, the other also had some intermittent problem. Not an issue for us, but it could be problematic for guests with limited mobility. It’s also worth noting that while the pool area is peaceful and relaxing most of the time, it changes noticeably during weekends. The hotel seems to welcome local day visitors then, often families with children, which makes the atmosphere livelier and noisier. The rather strict pool rules are not really enforced, so if you’re looking for quiet reading time by the pool, the beach might be a better option on weekends. Summary Hilton DoubleTree Mahé offers beautiful surroundings, high-quality rooms, and an excellent breakfast, supported by a genuinely caring staff. For a relaxing stay, we recommend enjoying the facilities during weekdays, booking breakfast only, and some nights exploring dining alternatives outside the hotel.
