The reception at the Coco de Mer hotel was divine after a tiring journey from Slovenia. Upon arrival, Mr. Ashley (whom I must commend for his guest relations; his positive energy assured us that we would be well taken care of during our vacation) took care of our luggage, we received refreshing towels and a cocktail to help us relax immediately. Mr. Ahmed then explained everything there is to do in and around the hotel, including options for booking excursions through them or via an agency, making us feel like one big family. I must commend Mr. Ahmed and his colleague for their daily availability and positive energy, evident through their constant smiles. On the second day, we asked Mr. Niarkar from the hotel bar if we could try real coconut and drink from it, and he went out of his way to climb a tree and bring us coconuts, incredible. Both he and Mr. Anura from the bar, along with all the other staff (we couldn't remember all the names, but if we could, I would mention each one because they are all so friendly and energetic that you immediately forget any worries), truly made an effort to ensure that our experience with them was the best it could be, and it was. The food at breakfast and dinner was excellent, catering to everyone's tastes. Again, I must highlight the staff's interest in us as guests, taking the time to chat, advise, and share their interesting life stories, providing a genuine experience. The receptionist, whose name I don't know, organized a trip to a nearby town and a hair appointment, and it was great—whatever you wish for, you get. Life at Coco de Mer hotel in the Seychelles truly slows down, making you forget about everything else, but it passes too quickly, and it's time to go home. We definitely recommend this hotel, and we will definitely return, but next time for much longer. Thank you to everyone at Coco de Mer hotel for this wonderful experience.
