White sandy beaches, coconut palms swaying gently in the wind, crystal clear water and your lover by your side: that's how you usually know the Seychelles. They are the dream destination for lovers par excellence. And there are many hotels here. But if you are looking for an extraordinary stay you should put the Mango House on your bucket list. Because the boutique hotel in the Seychelles has a lot of stories to tell.

A guest of the photographer

As soon as you enter Mango House, it somehow feels like coming home. Not as if you were a guest in a hotel. Much more like a visit with friends. On the one hand, this has to do with the fact that, with only 41 rooms and suites, it's indeed a very intimate boutique hotel in the Seychelles. And on the other hand it has something to do with the previous owner. Because here you'll stay in the former private house of the Italian fashion photographer Gian Paolo Barbieri.

You are part of the family immediately. The team knows their guests by name and does everything to give them an unforgettable vacation. It's easy to understand why Barbieri fell in love with this place. After all, Mango House is surrounded by the name-giving trees in the south of the Seychelles in Anse aux Poules Bleues. Right on the doorstep: you'll find a beautiful bay.

A Destination for sophisticated guests

The location fits and so does the vibe. So it's hardly surprising that the guests often include visionaries, avant-gardists and artists. Among other things, they appreciate the modern design, the breathtaking view from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the butler service. Even more space and amenities are offered by the Ocean House Suites with an own pool and the Bayhouse Villa with three bedrooms, a pool and a private butler.

The foodies among the guests can look forward to a wide selection. Because at Mango House, indulgence reaches a new dimension. There are five restaurants with unique creations to choose from. The Muse offers Italian delicacies, Azido takes guests on a culinary trip to Japan, Moutya serves Creole food, Soley serves classic snacks, and Kokoye serves first-class drinks.

Romantic & active

You could now simply lie on the beach or by the pool with a "Mango & Cinnamon Mojito" made by bartender Jess. Or you could go snorkeling, kayaking, cocktail making or surfing. Also extended hikes, for example to the waterfalls, and walks in nature provide variety.
