Club Med Seychelles: A Personal Experience from Sean

Sean recently travelled to Club Med Seychelles and this is what he had to say…

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Club Med Seychelles, and it’s a place that truly has it all—endless food, drinks, activities, and breathtaking 360° natural beauty.

Having not traveled far beyond Cape Town or George recently, I was excited to get another stamp in my passport. After a smooth 4-hour, 40-minute flight on Air Seychelles, followed by a 15-minute transfer and a short boat ride, we arrived at Saint Anne’s Island. We were warmly greeted with refreshing towels and a glass of champagne.

A stylish blue wristband was handed to us, doubling as our room key. I still have mine on—it’s a cool souvenir! After sorting out our luggage, we naturally made our way to the Monkey Tales Bar for a cold Sey Brew beer (or two).

I stayed in a spacious Superior Family Room, which comfortably accommodates two adults and one child under 12. The room was thoughtfully designed, with super comfortable beds, a stocked minibar, and handy USB charging ports. The bathroom was equally impressive, featuring a freestanding tub, double sinks, and quality Cinq Mondes bath products. Everything felt luxe and well-appointed.

Club Med Seychelles runs on an all-inclusive package, so no surprises when checking out. It also means indulging in incredible food and cocktails without guilt—there’s plenty to try, and it’s all too good to miss! Turtle Cove’s international buffet and The Reef restaurant offer diverse options, from slow-roasted meats to local Creole delicacies like jackfruit curry and spiced lentils. Don’t skip the freshly prepared sushi, grilled lobster, or the daily catch!

And then, there’s the patisserie counter—an absolute highlight. The chocolate pistachio tart and coconut ice cream were pure perfection, and the desserts overall are truly irresistible.

For something a little more romantic, The Reef Beach Lounge offers formal à la carte dining under the stars, toes in the sand, and beautiful sea views. It’s the perfect setting for an intimate dinner by moonlight.

Club Med Seychelles has three pools, including a lively main pool where the action happens—daily aqua gym, games, beach volleyball, and cocktails. There’s also an adults-only Zen Pool for those wanting a quiet, relaxing escape, as well as a separate kids’ pool to keep the little ones entertained.

Water sports are abundant, from kayaking and paddleboarding to snorkeling and sailing lessons—all included. After an active day, a cold drink at the beach bar is the way to go.

Additional facilities include a fitness center, yoga classes, tennis courts, archery, guided walks, and more. The Petit and Mini Clubs are great for kids, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

In short, Club Med Seychelles is the perfect eco-chic, all-inclusive escape for families and adventurers alike. With stunning beaches, endless activities, and indulgent dining, it’s the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy a taste of the tropics.
