Location House structure Caretaker - Faheem's Hospitality and attitude Owner's approach

“Our stay exceeded all expectations.”

The accommodation itself offers stunning views, exceptional cleanliness, spacious and very well-equipped rooms, and a peaceful environment that allows for complete relaxation. Everything feels thoughtfully designed, functional, and maintained to a high standard, reflecting care and attention to detail throughout. What truly made the experience special, however, was the owner. Every day she provided fresh fruit, which was a wonderful and thoughtful gesture. The highlight of our stay was the complimentary fish dinner she prepared for us. The fish served with rice and ginger was incredibly delicious, fresh, and prepared with a true sense of local flavor. It was not just a meal, but a genuine act of hospitality that made us feel warmly welcomed and at home. It is these details that transform a good stay into a truly memorable experience. This accommodation is perfect for families and couples seeking peace, beautiful scenery, and authentic hospitality away from busy resorts. It is definitely a place we would gladly return to.

“Seychelles is a wonderful island to visit & our stay was relaxing, calm, and beautiful”

The location is has a magnificent view over the seas and is really very clean and calm. The staffs have been very nice to us and assisted us whenever we need help. The dinner offered to us was superb and it was a great hospitality service from Mrs Celestine and the team. This is a place worth to stay in Seychelles not only because of value for money, but also because of the natural views and proximity to shops and sandy beaches. Thanks & Regards, Busgeeth Vicky

“Must try”

Location - near to famous sunset beach, near to supermarket, near to all kind of restaurants Price - entire villa at so low cost Villa - a fully furnished with all kitchen appliances and a barbecue as well. Rooms dining area, outer sit out everything was perfect Host- the manager and well as the owner were awesome. Never seen a host and manager like them. They allowed for early check in as well as late check out. The owner often bought us fruits also cooked meals for us.

“A perfect peaceful escape with the best hosts and breathtaking views”

We had an amazing stay at Chepsted Chalet! The place is quiet, cozy, and perfect for couples looking for peace and privacy. Our house was big, spotless, and had everything needed for cooking. The view from the terrace was absolutely stunning — you can just sit and enjoy the ocean for hours, watching birds and flying foxes. Celestine, the host, is incredibly kind and caring. She welcomed us with fresh fruits and coconuts, cooked delicious fish several times, and even helped us find a rental car very quickly. The manager Maureen and all the staff were also super friendly and helpful. We arrived earlier than check-in time, but the house was already ready for us. When our flight was delayed and we had to come a day later, they kindly canceled one night — that was really appreciated. The location is very peaceful and offers amazing views, but keep in mind that you definitely need a car to reach the chalet. The road goes uphill and walking up there would be pretty difficult. Everything was perfect — clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend Chepsted Chalet to anyone looking for a romantic and relaxing stay in Seychelles.

“Everything was great!”

Everything was great! The owner and staff are very kind and help with all of your requests. The house is really beautiful and the view from terrace was unforgettable! It's located on the mountain/hill so it's strictly recommended for guests to have a car)

“Home away from home!”

- wonderful 2br apartment, large bedrooms - washing machine, stove and AC worked well - welcome drinks and flowers on the beds at arrival were very special - great verandah to eat/relax/enjoy the view

Great peaceful view in the morning, and a comfy place to chill in the evenings, especially on clear nights full of stars. The host is great, she would even cook a fish for us! :) The bed is comfy, there's enough space to cook.

“The owner was so kind and nice, the fish she made was excellent i think i will never forget the taste and after getting”

Lovely view Very clean villa Very kind and generous and helpful owner Feels like we are at home Very cozy place for families

“Truly exceptional!”

This was the most delightful stay - the highlight of our trip! The chalets are at the top of a steep hill - offering the most unbelievable views, from our balcony, of the Beau Vallon Bay, the sea and town and the forest at the back. The chalets are private, in a lovely garden and quiet area. We were met by our super helpful and kind hostess, Celestine, and found a lovely chalet with flowers and a fridge stocked with a welcoming drink (see photo of our coconut drink displayed on our balcony with a view), fruit, milk, water, juice, eggs, bread, butter, jam, etc, ... We had two chalets. Both are spacious, super clean, well furnished and "feels like home". They are equipped with everything - stove, microwave, washing machine, toaster, Weber braai (barbecue), all the "usual" kitchen utensils, iron - even umbrellas for all of us. Celestine checked daily whether we need anything and spoiled us with homemade snacks (the "bread fruit fries" were delicious) and fruit from her lovely garden. She also treated us to a delicious fish. All these wonderful treats were offered out of her kindness. Celestine kindly offered to organise a taxi whenever we needed one and she helped us wherever she could. When "at home", we mostly spent our time sitting on our balcony, enjoying the incredible ever-changing views. We enjoyed walking in the area and felt completely safe. We recommend a visit to the Botanical Garden (in Victoria itself). It is beautifully done and maintained and we saw amazing trees and plants. We went by taxi.

“Amazing and the best villa and host”

If you ever dreamt about ideal vacation - come to Celestine. She is the most amazing host. - She organised airport pickup and transfer back. - Refrigerator was full of food and fruits. She continued bringing us fruits every day from her garden. - The style of the villa is amazing, everything is brand new, you would enjoy every piece of it - the view, the sunset, the rooms and kitchen, the beds, the garden, the plants around villa - We kept the windows opened and didn't have any mosquitos in the rooms, maybe because it's located on the hill. - The Sunset beach nearby is the best one for snorkling, among all beaches in Seychelles it's the only one where I've seen whitetip reef shark, lots of eagle rays and turtles. - Very very pieceful, you won't be bothered with any noise around. Only the nature - the birds and flying foxes can break the silence.... - Celestine would just always go extra step to make you happy and make your stay unforgettable. So if you dream about ideal vacation - this is the right place!

“Excellent stay in the mountains but close enough to the city. Spectacular views.”

This is a quaint property with an excellent view overlooking the ocean. I loved the room, I loved the view . And the hospitality was a plus. Celestine was Superb even going out of her way to make sure I have food and was comfortable . Maureen, the manager, was also very nice and provided excellent customer service. This team really made me feel at home. I will definitely return.

“Wonderful”

Very friendly owner we arrived very very late and she but some breakfast for us in the fridge and fruit for the next morning, was helpful with everything and very kind!

The apartment was amazing. You'll find everything that you ever need inside. Very nice, clean and comfortable home with incredible view. Thanks a lot to the owner Celestine for her hospitality. She treated us to delicious food every evening and tried to make our stay feel like home.

Thank you for hospitality, amazing views! Fish salad was great! Everything was really great!

We had a wonderful time at Chepsted Chalets! The location was perfect, offering a stunning view and close proximity to Beau Vallon Beach and a small store. A car is necessary due to the steep uphill climb to the house. The house itself was spacious and well-maintained. The host was extremely helpful and ensured we had everything we needed for a fantastic stay. They even brought us coconuts and homemade treats. Thank you Celestina and your team. We are looking forward to returning soon!

Our experience at Chepsted Chalets was absolutely faultless. The friendliest of welcomes was accompanied by delicious homemade snacks, which were repeated every day of our stay - a lovely touch. The flat was exceptionally well equipped for self-catering, spotlessly clean and very homely. For the price paid, there really is no better value for money in the Seychelles!

“A special wonderful stay”

We really loved our stay here. It's a very quiet place on the hill with beautiful ocean view and sunsets. The owner Celestine is a wonderful host, extra nice, really taking care of her guests, helping with whatever. The chalet with its terrasse is very beautiful, very clean, has good beds, provides everything you need. You find not only fridge and washing machine, also 2 toaster, water cooker, microwave, blender, rice cooker, even barbecue outside, with coal. Fan everywhere, AC in both bedrooms. Really incredible. I never had an apartment like that. Thanks to owner Celestine who made our stay really wonderful, also to helpful Maureen and friendly staff. Hopefully we can come back. We would definitely stay here again. Also our car (Sixt) was very good, new. We can only recommend Sixt with helpful and friendly owner and staff.

“Excellent, we really enjoyed our stay at Chepsted Chalets”

The location was beautiful and the host Celestine and Maureen were very accommodating. They even arranged a rental car for us. The chalets are near supermarkets which was convenient and the Beau Vallon beach is very close. There's lots of restaurants around a 5 min ride away.

The host and staff was friendly and helpful. The view exceptional and the chalet comfortable.
