Cerf Island Resort

What a brilliant location with some tranquility sounds from the birds and the ocean with a warm welcome by Valerie, Bhargav and Prakash the manager with a great resort orientation.Many thanks to the 1756 restaurant team Cindy, Wendy and Kenneth.A big thank you to Denis you took me around the resort not forgetting the captain on the boat and lastly Rita at the reception.The entire team was always willing and ready to assist with a genuine smile.You made my stay an unforgettable experience.

Hotel in a peaceful setting, with almost deserted beaches and an idyllic environment, featuring a beautifully maintained garden. The villas are spacious and very clean. The dinner included in the half-board option is very generous (even too much!) and highly satisfying. Travel to Mahé Island by boat is very easy, with a consistently cheerful crew. The staff is extremely welcoming and attentive. A special thank you, for their professionalism and kindness to Tommaso, Prakash, and Simon, but also members of their team such as Keneth, Cinthia, Allié, Wendy, and Bhargan. Many thanks also to the chefs for their delicious cuisine and to the housekeeping and maintenance teams for keeping the site spotless. Your professionalism, good spirits, and kindness truly helped make our holiday an excellent one. Thank you all.

Excellent island hotel where your cillas hide inside jungle on hill. Peaceful and quite environment with hill top panoramic view. Nice front office indian staffs. Food vit expensive. Must place to stay with kids. Good snorkeling and kayaking..

Nice small resort, with rooms strung out up the hillside. Lots of vegetation, giving shady privacy around every room. Nice walk to the room, lots of steps for daily exercise, but lots of mosquitoes due to high humidity. Bungalows are roomy but need much better lighting inside. Outdoor bathroom was nice, with very large bath. Tech needs upgrading - can only get free wifi in reception area. Bar area well located with lovely views across the bay, but some more thought needed about where smoking section is located, as currently if anyone is smoking the smoke wafts throughout the whole bar area and into the restaurant, which makes an unpleasant environment to eat and drink in. Food was ok, but could be better. Snorkeling is very accessible and is ok, we were unlucky with the weather for the few days we visited, making the visibility quite poor, but if it was more settled, i imagine it would have been nice. Disappointing that we were there to celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniversary and had informed them of this, but didn't receive any acknowledgement about this, not even a small flower on our table!

I really loved the concept of the villas, especially the outdoor shower and its very spacious and quiet, total privacy. It’s ideal for a romantic get away. I went there for my mum’s birthday, and all the staffs there were simply amazing, very helpful and kind. I really appreciated the little surprise they did at dinner for my mum. It was just amazing.. There’s a few things that could be improved, like putting a little bit more lighting in the rooms and also to provide free wifi in the rooms.. In terms of food i really liked the concept of the preorder menu for dinner, but in my opinion they should include more creole dishes to the menu…as well as on the al carte menu, the options are a little bit limited for lunch, they should include more options… but breakfast was great plenty options to choose from… Other than that I had an amazing time, they even have various activities you can choose from…I AM DEFINITELY COMING BACK…

A wonderful, relaxed resort. All the employees went out of their way to make sure our stay of 10 nights over new year 2024/5 was as pleasant as possible. Tomasa and Prakash run a smooth, discrete operation and take time to get to know their guests and sure their stay is extra special. Celia, Kenneth, Simon, Hailie and everyone in the restaurant & bar area were very pleasant, helpful and friendly. They really took a pride in offering in the superb service they offered. Buffet style breakfast and dinner over the busy Xmas & NY period and then a smaller menu selection in the quieter period after NY. Food was good, plentiful and presented with care. Always a choice of 3-4 dishes and as a vegetarian I had no problem with the selection available. Rooms were excellent, clean and well proportioned. The island is lush and green and it was rainy season whilst we were there with lots of heavy showers but also some beautiful sunshine. We needed lots of mosquito spray. One of our party accidentally tripped down a step whilst we were there and sprained her ankle, the resort staff couldn’t do enough to help and the wonderful buggy staff did a great job transporting her up and down to her room from the beach/restaurant for a few days, the boat guy took me over to the pharmacy and even waited around for an hour until they opened - thank you all so much. This is wonderful place to relax, unwind and kick back. I’m sure we’ll be back.
