You may feel like the Seychelles are just for footballers' (new) wives and loaded celebs, but don’t despair. These incredible tropical islands are home to charming small hotels and great value four stars that offer a more genuine local flavour than a flashy five-star. Island hopping is more affordable than you may think too, so you can mix and match.

Seychelles is undoubtedly one of the dream honeymoon destinations but it doesn’t need to break the bank. We have sought out a great selection of smaller hotels to suit most budgets.
The inner islands are made of granite with stunning mountainous scenery, lush foliage and wildlife. The outer islands are coral, with superb snorkelling and diving. All feature pristine white sand beaches, swaying palm trees, and of course, sparkling turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, with balmy year-round temperatures between 25 – 32°C.
On Mahé, the main island, the new four star deluxe Constance Ephélia Resort is perfect for newlyweds. It offers a wealth of facilities including no less than five restaurants, the largest spa in the Indian Ocean plus water sports galore.
On a smaller scale, we recommend the Coco de Mer and Black Parrot Suites on Praslin Island, both offering seclusion in a lovely atmosphere.
Amongst the boutique hotels, we particularly recommend L’Habitation on Cerf Island and Hotel Archipel on Praslin Island, set on a tropical hillside with stunning ocean views. Patatran Village on the stunning island of La Digue is also charming.
