The location is far from anything, except for one supermarket. You should have a car or take taxi every time you want to go somewhere (it’s normal for Mahe). Besides the way to each villa is steep with sharp turns, when it rains not all taxi agree to climb the hill. The nearest beach is not really nice, no infrastructure.

Incredible views, comfy beds, very clean, good value for money, the manager Altezia was extremely friendly and helpful, always in touch.

After a polished stay at Constance Mahé, we traded turndown service for tropical independence with six nights at Villas de Jardin in Port Glaud—and we weren’t disappointed. Nestled in lush hills with sweeping views of the bay, our Villa #1 served as a peaceful, private retreat with just the right balance of comfort and autonomy. The villa is spacious and well-equipped for self-catering, though you'll want to plan grocery runs wisely—this isn’t exactly next door to a Carrefour. Still, once stocked, the kitchen handles everything from morning eggs to sunset apéros. And speaking of sunsets: the view from our terrace was easily worth a few minor logistical compromises. The pool is small but elegant—ideal for a refreshing dip after a beach outing or simply lounging with a book in hand. No crowds, no noise, no competing for sunbeds: a rare Seychelles luxury in itself. While it doesn’t compete with a 5-star hotel on service or dining, that’s not the point. Villas de Jardin offers something rarer: space, peace, and the feeling of actually living in paradise for a while—not just visiting it. Highly recommended for couples, families, or anyone who appreciates independence with a view.

Nothing to say here ! It was top notch!

Magic view ! Fresh villa ( nr 6 ) close to the pool, magnificent amazing terrace, not at the top but then not so far to climb :) when coming home from restaurants ! Lovely Rieke, always with a smile fixing everything ! The cutest dogs down at the reception ! Also great contacts with drivers - the one we had both to the villas and to our next place were very friendly !

We stayed in a lovely two bedroom villa with an amazing ocean view, exactly as per the photo on Booking. The house was clean, well equipped, with modern and useful facilities and equipment. The team was helpful and responsive. The only thing we did not appreciate was the level of security of the property and the safety of the guests. The villas are quite secluded, embedded on a hill covered with beautiful and quite thick vegetation, and there is no physical barrier for anyone to be able to access the villa garden or the balcony. Lately, theft levels in the Seychelles have been increasing, as a consequence of a rising drug addiction problem among the local population. The villas management clearly informed us that we need to lock the house and turn on the security system when we are out and as well at night while we are inside sleeping. Taking precautions is always a good things, we did not mind and readily followed the instructions, however the problem for us came when we realized that: 1. The house security alarm system is not in fact connected to anybody - not the police, not a security company, so basically, burglars can come, the alarm will sound, if someone hears it and comes to help - good, if not, we are on our own. 2. There is nobody around - the reception is only populated a few hours during the day, and the rest of the time there is nobody around - no security guard on duty or at least someone who can hear if the alarm sounds and call the police. Indeed, we were instructed how to lock and turn the alarm on, and we were given the number of the local police department, yet I did not feel safe, particularly at night, while us and the kids were sleeping in the house, thinking that someone can break in…

The view from our balcony was amazing, the bed was comfortable and overall house was really nice. They clean the house very good. The pool was refreshing after a long day outside and outside shower was amazing. The villa offers great privacy.

It’s a steep drive up to the apartment but you soon get the hang of it. They do need to provide more adequate lighting by the bed if you want to read…

Unbelievable panoramic view, the generous deck, spacious rooms, very comfortable bed all set in beautiful gardens with the infinity pool which if perfect for cooling-off.

Wish they offered food or breakfast.

Beautiful property with private villas spreading across hillside overlooking beautiful coast line. Amazing staff, Altezia was the best and made us feel like family.

Our stay at Villas de Jardin was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking views that this accommodation offers. Perched on a hillside, the panoramic view of the ocean and greenery is simply stunning. The terrace is incredibly spacious and offers the perfect setting for relaxation. The cleanliness of the accommodation was impeccable. It was clear that the staff take great pride in maintaining the property to the highest standards. The outdoor shower is a great addition to the villa, so you can wash off the sand after returning from the beach. In conclusion, Villas de Jardin is a hidden gem that offers more than just a place to stay. We cannot wait to return and would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable stay.

Peacock from the neighbor early in the morning. If I stayed longer, I'd caught him and my wife would have cooked him :-D

view and balcony have been perfect. Plenty of space and friendly staff!

Can’t be avoided for the views but the hill is quite steep. Again, for the stellar views you can’t expect anything less than having to make the climb.

Views were amazing. Stayed in the 2 bedroom villa and it was beautiful with a huge balcony.

The villa was beautiful, even better than in the pictures. The view was amazing and sunset from the terrace was breathtaking. The service was great and the host very kind and helpful. We would definetely come back.

Air conditioning is only in bedroom and can be switched on only when you are home. This was not well described and I would not rent this place if I knew it in the first place as the apartment gets very hot incl. everything what is inside. Water kettle is very old and used with burned bottom, should be exchanged.

The biggest advantage of this place (villa nr 8 at the very top) is nice view and spacious terrace with comfortable seating. It’s very clean and surroundings are well maintained, property manager is friendly and flexible.

We loved the house, very clean and comfy; Pemma was amazing, takes really good care of the guests! Even let us have fruit from the property. Super friendly staff, thank you Lindy and Robin.

No washing machine or iron/ironing board in room. You can take it to reception and they will do a load or two for you for a small fee. A couple of extra pillows would have been useful.

The view & terrace are hard to beat here. Beds were comfortable, and the power shower superb after a days exploring. Apartment’s manager put on a soirée one evening with local food, a Seychellois band. It was nice to meet others staying in the villas & hear some local music ☺️ Small but lovely infinity pool with a view- very nice at the end of the day. The ladies cleaned the apartment daily. Beautifully clean with fresh beach towels supplied every day.

no complaints

Villas de Jardin was our third and last location on the island and literally saying it was the cherry on the top! The view from the terrace was absolutely stunning. The stuff is very friendly and hospitable, we felt like at home. Everything was totally clean! Air-condition was working properly. The bathroom is very big and comfortable , with the ocean view. We'd recommend the most delicious restaurant nearby ( 5 min by car) Pricy, but it's worth trying it!!! Del Place
