    The way to the property is quite narrow and uphill. Driving there was a bit challenging and if there is a car coming you may need to drive backwards to down as 2 cars cannot pass through. Especially in the night this can be a really nightmare.

    Lenny was so nice and helpfull. He explained things we may need. Room was big enough and comfy and the property doesn´t make you feel like you´re in a hotel. You really feel home..

    The bathroom and toilet had no door so it's literally inside the room I love my wife but a bit more privacy when I'm on the toilet would have been nice. This is not a deal killer for us but some couples might have a problem with this

    Great value for your money! Lenny was so nice and welcoming. He reached out every evening to make we are doing okay. The room was clean, the pool was awesome but the crown jewel is the view..OMG!

    Very good location, close to some nice beaches. Rental car is mandatory but so it is everywhere on Mahe to exlore the island. Lenny is a very friendly, helpful and funny host responding very fast to any requests. Apartment itself is very beautiful with fantastic views from the balcony. Highly recommended if you want to explore the south of Mahe.

    Our stay at Red Coconut was fantastic. The view is amazing, the host was very friendly and nice. We also liked that they had grill at the location so we were able to buy fresh fish from the market and grilled ourself.

    There is nothing to dislike. Perhaps just a suggestion, to enhance the quality of the room we stayed in. To have the bathroom/toilet enclosed as there was no door and ceiling.

    We stayed in the main (luxury) house for 6 nights and loved every moment of our stay in the property. What we like? The view (from the house), its cleanliness and comfort, and the decor. A lovely space to socialise and interact with other guests. Lenny, the property manager, was very welcoming and always ready to assist, no matter how big or small our requests. He exuded warmth and kindness.

    Perfect place!! 🫶 main property has an en-suite rooms, for self catering all necessary utensils are in place - shared kitchen with guests (couples and family alike). super market is 5 mins by car. Petite Anse and Anse Soleil Beach are 9 mins drive from property. Property had Beautiful views from Terrace , cosy pool to chill and enjoy sunset views…just what I needed to wind down from chaotic society we all live in. hosts Lenny and team have done fantastic job. Links to all attractions in Mahe were shared on whatsapp, checking in on you if you were ok and needed any help, this saved a lot of time when you’re moving around . I would Recommend to rent a car as the accommodation is bit higher in the hills, with that said depending on your fitness level one can also walk. From Airport this property is 30 mins, 20 minutes from Ferry.

    Every morning we had the same dilemma: to spend the day at Red Coconut, because the place is too beautiful, or to explore something new on the island? Just kidding above, otherwise, this area would have been blank.

    Red Coconut will remain one of the beautiful memories of our holiday. The entire place is like a dream, where you will live in, during your staying. White walls, large windows, wood furniture, all the facilities you could think of, a wonderful garden with a nice pool and a spectacular view at sunset. The hosts are the kindest, the most friendly and careful people, always available and ready to help you. We sincerely recommend it! If you pass by also because of this review, say hi to Lenny from us, Marian & Alina.

    Everything was fine, but just as a suggestion for improvement, we would like to see an optional breakfast offered, as there are hardly any breakfast options in the area. We went shopping at the supermarket around the corner, but we didn't find much for breakfast there.

    Our host Lenny was very kind and hospitable. He has a very positive attitude, that is contagious. In the beginning he asked us if the holiday was our honeymoon and we told him that we are just engaged. On our last evening he surprised us with congratulations. It was such a surprise. We were very pleased. Thank you again. :) Furthermore he has given us a lot of tips on what to do on Mahé. In Red coconut we felt like we were in paradise. We have lived there between palms and wonderful flowers with a pool and a view to the sea. The atmosphere was lovely and everything was clean. We really enjoyed our stay.

    Everything was beyond perfect

    One of the nicest places I have ever visited. Everything from communication a few days before arrival to concern about our departure to other place in Seychelles was beyond perfect. The location of the apartment was very convenient - close to the shop, a few restaurants, beach, currency exchange place. The apartment itself was well equipped - there was a washing machine, flat iron, a few adapters, plenty of table games to keep the guests entertained. Seems like the hosts has thought of everything the guests might need. Our favorite place of Red Coconut was the pool - there we could not only freshen up in the heat of Seychellois sun but also to watch the most breathtaking sunsets. Big shoutout to the host Lenny - his hospitality and tips for the trip made us feel like a part of his family. Peace and love!

    We have been welcomed by the guest - Lenny who was extremely friendly, therefore check in and check out were very smooth. Location was excellent and the layout of the property was perfect for our needs. It was spotlessly clean and had all the facilities that one requires (very well equipped kitchen, barbeque, terrace). We had a very pleasant stay and would definitely return again. Thank you for the experience!

    Everything was great, really good value for money. Lenny was so welcoming and even made sure he send us a message wishing us a happy wedding anniversary a few days later when we were already in a different island. The kind of gesture that makes all the difference. Definitely recommend staying here!

    Nothing really. It is a perfect place and would book it again without a shadow of a doubt.

    - Lenny who looks after the guests and the property is amazing. We were there in Seychelles for 7 days and met many people but hands down, he might be the kindest and most friendliest person in the whole island. - Lenny went extra mile, went above and beyond and looked after us. He also took us for a sight seeing tour without expecting anything in return. Such big is his heart. We also got a ride to the airport during our departure. - This place instantly felt like home. - The room we were in was spacious and a great value for money. - The location is to die for especially the sunset view. - The pool is perfect and you can basically swim anytime without any restrictions. - There's also 8 ball pool table, darts and other games which my wife and me played everyday. It was such a fun. - It is a self catering so everything that you need for cooking is provided. You'll also get your own fridge to keep your food/drinks cold. - The washing machine for the laundry was very handy. We came from South Africa and our clothes were quite dirty and to be able to do the laundry was amazing. - There's an outside shower in between lush green trees which is quite cool and also, bbq facility is there.
