Ocean Villa: Location and Description
Ocean Villa began as a retreat for weekends and holidays away from the busy life on the island of Mahé. We decided to offer the villa as a holiday home for the rest of the year. As it proved very popular, we built two more villas on the grounds.
The names of the villas were suggested by Ruby Labonte when she joined our team as a sales representative in 2007. Ruby, who has a great deal of experience in the local tourism industry, fell in love with Ocean Villa on her first visit. Drawing on our motto 'Be at home in Paradise' and a play on words with our family name, Adam, she suggested the names Villa Adam, Villa Eve and Apartment Cherubim, which we adopted straight away.
Ocean Villa is a proud member of the Seychelles Secrets Portfolio of the best small hotels and guesthouses in the Seychelles.
Our guests have been consistently very satisfied with their stays. Many have even returned or sent their friends, colleagues and relatives to experience our hospitality and enjoy the beauty of the Seychelles in a relaxed and informal setting. We hope you will count yourself among them, and we invite you to browse our website for further details and pictures before sending us your booking enquiry.
