Savoy Seychelles Resort & Spa

The Savoy sits on the liveliest beach on Mahe, the long golden sweep of Beau Vallon, with the island's biggest choice of restaurants and shops right outside. It is a practical family base rather than a hidden hideaway: an easy transfer from the airport, a huge pool and a supervised kids club. Because it is in a real village, you can walk out for an ice cream or a casual dinner, which many parents prefer to being locked inside one resort. It is one of the better-value five-star options on the island.
Our verdict
The most practical family base on Mahe, right on Beau Vallon beach with restaurants and shops to walk to, though the main pool is adults-only and the kids club is paid and limited.
The rooms
The Savoy is a large, modern resort right on Beau Vallon beach, with Family Rooms and interconnecting rooms that suit four comfortably. Standard rooms take an extra bed or cot, provided free, and the flat, walkable grounds are simple with a pushchair. Being in the middle of Beau Vallon means shops, restaurants and a supermarket are a short stroll away, which is handy with a baby.

Parents also ask
Is there a kids club?
There is a supervised kids club, but it runs limited hours and is not free, and under-fives are not taken on their own, so plan on being with younger children.
Can children use the main pool?
The main pool is designated adults-only, so children swim in the sea or a separate area, which is worth knowing before booking.
Is Beau Vallon beach good for families?
Yes, it is the island's best swimming beach, long and gently shelving, though it is a busy public beach rather than a private one.

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.
