Reviews for Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island

Amazing honeymoon experience - outstanding service and offerings

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

My wife and I had an amazing honeymoon here at the Waldorf Astoria Platte Island. Honestly, the pictures do not do this property/island justice. Everything from the landscaping, the activity offering, the stunning shark point beach area and the attentive staff made the whole experience truly magical. Our PC Viktoria was amazing in recommending us activities, helping to plan our days, ensuring we had everything we needed and enabling us to enjoy our experience without having to do much thinking! Another shoutout to Dennis and his coffee shop which is a fantastic addition, with some of the best coffee we’ve ever had. Dammika the lifeguard went above and beyond to show us the marine life around the island. Regrettably we didn’t catch all of the names, but the Kenyan lady at La Perle made our mornings great with her charm and positive vibes. Shoutout to Maison des Epices which had amazing food and amazing staff, with an excellent mixologist who provided us with great custom cocktails. We will definitely aim to come back on the all inclusive package as this enabled us to truly enjoy the island, and the service it had to offer.

An incredible place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

Our stay at the Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island was truly unforgettable. The island itself is breathtaking; a nature reserve surrounded by turquoise waters, with no motorboats or vehicle noise, creating an atmosphere of complete peace and serenity, an incredibly tranquil place. The service was outstanding from start to finish. A special mention to Donia, our personal concierge, who was incredibly attentive and went out of her way to make our honeymoon feel extra special with thoughtful surprises. As a gay couple, we also felt completely comfortable and warmly welcomed throughout our stay, something that meant a great deal to us. While prices are understandably on the higher side, given the remote island setting and five-star standard, the quality of the food, impeccable service, and overall experience more than justify it - especially as a honeymoon destination. The property and landscaping were second to none. A truly magical destination, luxurious, restorative, and filled with moments of care that make it stand out among the best resorts we’ve ever visited. See you again!

Paradise

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

We had an amazing stay, everything was just perfect. The island is truly paradise, crystal clear water, white sand, and so much incredible marine life. While snorkeling / Diving we saw manta rays, reef sharks and sea turtles, which was absolutely unforgettable. The hotel also has an enclosure with giant tortoises, which was such a lovely surprise. And if u come at the good season u could watch baby turtles hatching. A special mention goes to our snorkeling/lifeguard guide, a very kind gentleman from Sri Lanka named Dominic (if I remember correctly). He made the whole experience safe, fun and unforgettable. The only small downside was the spa, my massage felt like it was done by someone quite new, so it wasn’t as relaxing as I’d hoped. Overall though, everything exceeded expectations. Food was amazing everywhere we ate also. I’d recommend this place without hesitation and would definitely love to come back one day. 🌴✨🐢 Also Thanks to our kind host Stef who helped us for everything to be perfect 😊 Juliette & Adrien.

A Perfect Stay – Exceptional Staff, Immaculate Villa and Unforgettable Experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

We had the great pleasure of staying at this resort – and it was simply perfect from start to finish. The entire staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive. You can immediately feel that everyone is highly trained in dealing with guests. Every interaction, whether at reception, in the restaurant, or with the service team, was warm, professional, and truly impressive. A special thank you goes to Shappon, who kept our villa in absolutely spotless condition – the cleaning was always flawless and done with such care. We also greatly appreciated the warm and friendly assistance from Viktoriia, who looked after us in the most attentive way and made our stay even more enjoyable. Our villa itself was an absolute highlight: 393 m² of living space and a 1,000 m² garden – larger and more beautiful than we ever imagined. The facilities are fantastic, modern, and at the same time wonderfully comfortable. Everything is in immaculate condition; it’s clear that every detail is cared for with great dedication. Our stay was a world-class experience in every way. We would have loved to stay longer and can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone who values quality, genuine hospitality, and a stunning setting. An unforgettable stay

Must experience ASAP!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

This is truly a gem of a resort on a tiny island in the middle of the Indian Ocean! Stayed in the Grand Hawksbill which offered plenty of room, a nice pool and its own beach area where we saw sea turtles, baby sharks, tons of colourful fish and sting rays. The room and pool area was cleaned extremely well every day. Lana, our personal concierge was amazing and catered to all our needs, bookings were made immediately such as tennis, kayaking, dinner, etc. The overall service was exceptional throughout the resort. I would just recommend more signs throughout the resort to direct to places like the fitness centre/tennis, the spa etc…
