This DoubleTree is the value pick on Mahe, a small and calm resort on the quiet southeast coast at Anse Forbans. There is no kids club, but the sheltered reef-protected beach is one of the safest on the island for a paddle, and the infinity pool looks straight out to sea. It suits families who want a simple, affordable beach base and are happy to make their own days rather than lean on organised children's activities. With children under twelve staying free, it is one of the least expensive ways to bring a family to the Seychelles.
The rooms
Allamanda is a small, low-key resort of around thirty rooms, most a few steps from the beach. Rooms are simple and comfortable rather than lavish, and up to two children under twelve stay free sharing with parents, which keeps costs down. Cots are available and the ground-floor beachfront rooms are easy with a pushchair. There are no big family suites, so larger families take two connecting rooms.
How the KidProof Score works
Every hotel is rated on eight things families actually care about, then weighted by how much each one drives your choice. Room setup counts the most. The little touches break the ties.

Constance Lemuria
Lemuria is all suites and villas, and families spread out in a Junior Suite with an extra bed or, better, a two-bedroom Villa with a private pool and space for everyone. Cots are free and the resort is used to babies. Buggies ferry you around the hilly, green estate, and the three beaches include the famous Anse Georgette. The children's pool and playground sit near the kids club.

Raffles Seychelles
Every room at Raffles is a private villa, and many have their own pool, which is a huge win with a napping toddler or an early bedtime. One and two-bedroom Pool Villas suit families, and up to five children thirteen and under stay free using existing bedding, which softens the cost. A creche looks after younger children while the Sugar Palm Kids' Club takes ages four and up. Cots and baby kit come on request.

Constance Ephelia
Ephelia spreads over 120 hectares with two beaches, so there is a lot of choice for families. The 17 Family Villas have two bedrooms and a private plunge pool, ideal when a toddler needs a dark room for naps, while Junior and Senior Suites handle a family of three or four. Cots are free on request and connecting options are easy to arrange. A shuttle buggy runs around the grounds, which helps because the estate is large.
