Sophia is the best host I’ve ever met, she helped us with everything we needed and was in touch all the time. The apartment is very spacious with a great view, we felt very much like home. We walked up the hill easily, so don’t be afraid if you don’t have a car.

Thanks for a comfortable stay to Sofia and her assistants! Everything you need for a vacation is there! The friendly owner of the apartment is always ready to help. There is a good grocery store within walking distance!

There’s nothing, really enjoyed our stay.

Everything, the apartment has everything you need for a long stay, washing machine, fridge, stove, oven, you name it. Very clean and cosy apartment. Sophia is a lovely host, she goes above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable. The location is great if you want to go to the beach or explore the entire island, plus the view from the balcony is so beautiful.

The access road is a bit steep.

The apartments are spacious and functional. The balcony is lovely with amazing views - with fruit bats flying nearby. Sophia is a wonderful host - always smiling and ready to assist. The location is perfect to explore South Mahe and the West coast - which in my view are the best parts of the island.

Fantastic view, spacious appartment and a great host!

One thing to note is that the villa is located on a hill, so having a good car is important for getting around easily, and I would recommend an automatic car for the best experience. Overall, it was a wonderful

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Le Ronce Villa in Seychelles! The apartment design is perfect – spacious, beautifully laid out, and thoughtfully designed for comfort. The kitchen is fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the rooms are incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful stay. The terrace was one of my favorite features, providing a serene and relaxing space to enjoy the surroundings. I loved everything about this accommodation, and it truly exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a perfect getaway in Seychelles!

I stayed at Le Ronce Villa for the second time. First time was in 2019 and I was very satisfied stayed at this property. Now was my second time and it was perfect stay again, in every aspects. Apartment was super clean, well equiped with all amenities you need. Also the host, Sophia, is very helpful person and do not hesitate to ask her about the hints regarding restaurants, take aways and other useful informations. She will explain you everything you should know about island and Anse Royale. I would like to say thanks a lot for everything she helped us. Mahe is beautiful island, as well Praslin and La Digue. For Mahe and Praslin I recommend to hire a car.

Stayed in August 2024

Be wary of weekend "festivals" on the beach as it can get very busy. During the week there's plenty of space and in some instances we were one of only 3 or 4 couples on our bit of beach.

Chose Anse Royale as one of the best locations on the island... We weren't disappointed! Sophia is a fantastic host. Very organised. Supplied a hairdryer when we thought the appt had one. Then left us coconuts and papaya during the week. Always on hand for our queries. Apartment is huge! Yes, really. Dozens of power sockets and the unexpected bonus of a washing machine. Generally superbly equipped. Made life very easy. Lovely views down to the sea.. But We only used a car one day so walked up the hill back to the apartment every day from the beach. It's about 25 minutes on the flat from the best (Northern) shady end of Anse Royale beach, followed by 5 minutes of hard slog up a 25% gradient to get to the apartment . We managed it all 10 days and we are in our 60's and no longer stream lined! Absolutely recommended. Everything I hoped the Seychelles would provide came to fruition in this idyllic location.

There was nothing we didn't like, but the location is a bit uncomfortable. Very steep hill to go up to before you reach the accommodation, we didn't mind it but if you are not in a good condition you will probably struggle 🙂 Another tip is to bring an extra power converter if you need it. Unfortunately ours stopped working during the trip and it was hard to find one. Nothing to do with the accommodation though, maybe that's something that could be an additional equipment in the accommodation.

The property was one of the best during our stay in the Seychelles. It was well equipped with all appliances we needed (washing machine, kitchen etc.) The view was spectacular from the balcony and Sophia is the most amazing host that you can wish for.

We enjoyed a lot staying in Sophia's apartment. Sophia is very nice and always ready to help. The apartment fully corresponds to the description and photos. It has a full kitchen. Wifi works very well. We stayed for 2 weeks and will be glad to stay more.

There is a slope from the villa which requires to be a little cautious of the rare traffic. Well, Mahe is full of hills so seems to be something one should get used to almost wherever on the island.

Comfortable bed, spacious apartment. All amenities needed. Best scenery view one gets on the island. Safe neighbourhood under supervision of a kestrel (local bird) that visits the balcony. Actually that was the only place I saw it, appears to be of a shy species. Can watch the nature and its habitat from a beautiful balcony. In fact all view from all windows was amazing. Moderate walking distance to the beach and touristic destinations. Best beaches nearby. Especially one beach with parking, gives exclusive opportunity to snorkel starting directly from the beach. Very satisfied staying 2,5 weeks. Cheerful, considerate and helpful host Sophia is available for you whenever any questions might arise or if any guidance is needed.

I very much appreciated the cheerfulness and kindheartedness of Sophia, the cleanliness of the place as well as all the amenities available - including an extension wire, a washing machine, multiplug, etc.

As others have wrote its up a steep hill. So without a car it would be inconvinient to walk the hill every day. But for us that was not the case.

A huge, spacious, and bright appartment. It was clean and beautifull. Love the view. Its a bit out of the way but if you have a car its not a problem at all. Sophia was helpfull and a wonderfull host. She sent loads of usfull recomendations on where to eat and what to see. And she went out of her way to prepare the flat for our 2 year old. (Baby cot, baby bath, plastic glass...) prefect for a family!

Sophia is the most nice host you could get.she has all the good answers in her bag waiting just for you. We stayed for 6 nights.

Matress in master bedroom is rather soft to my liking.

Good location near supermarkets and two minutes from Anse Royale. Great views of the mountain and thin strip of the beach. Fully equipped new, large apartment.

Stayed in April 2023

The place is a bit far from the village center, so it is highly recommended to rent a car. Even going to the beach will take you about 15 min walk. When it's hot, it's really difficult.

It was an amazing experience. Sophia is super nice and hostile. The whole stay was lovely and it would be a memorable time for us.

TV is not working correctly as the internet is too slow, but it does not bother me at all.

Fantastic place to stay. Sophia is an excellent host. The property is clean and quiet. We stayed on the top floor with a great view from the balcony. I am highly recommended this place to any guests.

- To have a beautiful view and reach the villa, you'll have to overcome a steep climb. It's very unusual, you get tired, especially if you don't rent a car and move on foot. Unfortunately, slow internet. But if you don't plan to have a movie marathon at 2160p (4k) - it's not a problem. No microwave, but it's a matter of habit. If you plan to eat at cafes - it's not a problem. I want to emphasize that the minuses are a subjective matter of habits. The main thing to focus on is the human attitude, kindness, and responsiveness of host Sofia to her guests. We really enjoyed it!

Excellent villa in a good neighborhood. More about the pros and cons: Pros: -Friendly host Sophia. We were greeted with homemade delicious juice, everything was shown to us and always in touch. In honor of the birthday being celebrated, Sophia cooked us a delicious Creole dinner on the villa, such dishes we have not tried anywhere in cafes. We rested in the rainy season, Sophia kindly provided us with an umbrella. She also personally said goodbye to us, although we left early in the morning. Arranged transfer there and back to the airport. -Beautiful view. Our apartments were on the second floor and overlooked the mountains, sea, and greenery. -Two toilets, quietly working refrigerator, floor dryer for laundry (we were in different apartments and not always lucky with the availability of all these options). -Close proximity to a supermarket and bus stop.
