We needed a place to stay near Mahe airport prior to a 3:15 am flight. Touchdown Villa was the perfect choice. The villa is large and extremely comfortable. Jill, the owner was a great hostess, who made sure her property was well maintained, and who willingly drove us to the airport in the middle of the night. Highly recommend Touchdown Villa

Clean property, friendly owner, near airport with pick up. Great place after long flight and have a first glimpse of Seychelles from garden/balcony. Colourful birds! Food trucks, supermarket and Indian curry house nearby. You will hear sometimes dogs barking in neighbourhood but it’s part of rural Seychelles.

Nice place for an overnight
The place was large with nice views and super close to the airport. Not close to shopping so get your stuff before you get there. However the host offered to drive us for dinner, etc. and did provide a free transfer to the airport. Only two complaints. One is the air conditioning is only in the bedroom upstairs. It gets pretty hot downstairs. The other was that there was a used bar of soap in the shower and assorted left over toiletries in the bathroom. Also some leftover food in fridge. That’s a bit gross, but otherwise very clean and the hostess was super friendly and accommodating. I would recommend this place for a short stay and would revisit if I had an early flight out or late flight in for sure.

Bon logement proche aéroport.
L'emplacement idéal pour une première ou une dernière nuit sur Mahé. A dix minutes à pied de l'aéroport.
Maison spacieuse et très bien équipée.
Malheureusement les chiens du voisinage peuvent rendre la nuit assez pénible. Prévoir des boule quies.

La maison est très belle, le jardin aussi, belle vue sur l'océan, les aboiements du chien des voisins est un peu dérangeant lorsque l'on mange sur la terrasse couverte de dernière. L'hôte est très synaptique et conciliante.

Nice One Night Stay
Most friendly lady in a land of friendly people. Only stayed one night as had flight the next evening. Nice clean little house, with a well stocked kitchen, views of the runway and the ocean. TV had around 100 channels to choose from including Euro/US channels and shows.
Only issues were being so close to the airport plane noise was to be expected, but as so few flights this wasn't really a problem. Secondly, the A/C unit was only in the bedroom, with only a single fan downstairs which was tucked into a corner of the living room. An A/C unit downstairs or at the very least a more central fan/ceiling fan would be great.
Located up a steep hill, although airport pick up and drop off is included. By paying a little more we were able to extend check out time to late afternoon.
Overall a lovely stay.

Un po’ scomoda
La villa è molto bella ,immersa alla natura, spaziosa pulitissima ,ben arredata e dotata di tutti i confort(lavatrice,lavastoviglie,2 camere matrimoniali,ampissimi terrazzi arredati e il sevizio ottimo :la proprietaria offre servizio di navetta da e per aereoporto gratis (se avvisata per tempo)L unica pecca è che la villa seppur difronte all aereoporto è in cima ad una ripidissima salita,per tanto per accedervi è obbligatorio avere un mezzo di trasporto altrimenti con il caldo e L umidità che c è alle Seychelles diventa quasi impossibile accedervi!

Just OK
Convenient because so close to the airport if you are leaving the next day.
Fridge with leftover food.
Mad dogs barking next door at sunset.
Unbelievable steep road to get to the place, but that is common in Mahe.

OK for a night before an early flight.
Touchdown villa worked well for what we wanted....a single night before an early start at the airport. It has some lovely patio areas and it was great sitting out in the sun catching up on e-mails. The Wifi worked well.
It's halfway up a steep hill so you need to be fit if you want to walk to the shop to pick up some supplies. But It's well equipped so I was able to cobble together a meal fairly easily.
Downside......it's VERY noisy!! There were dogs barking, children [and adults!!] shouting, and planes landing and taking off.
I'm not sure how close to a beach it is as we just wanted to chill out and catch up on e-mails before flying home
Also, the fridge and cupboards had lots of leftover food in with the fridge in particular being a bit grubby so I didn't fancy using any of it. If food is left it needs to be dated.

La Villa se situe à 5 minutes en voiture de l'aéroport, idéal pour une arrivée tardive en avion ou un départ matinal. Notre hôte a également eu la gentillesse de venir nous chercher au milieu de la nuit (3h du matin !) et de nous redéposer le lendemain pour prendre notre vol en direction de Praslin. Nous avons grandement apprécié.
Pour un séjour plus long que le nôtre, la villa est très bien équipée et entretenue mais est un peu loin des commodités. Le wifi est d'excellente qualité.
Il y a aussi bien sûr le ballet des avions à proximité, moins agréable...

Friendly owner. Close to airport. She gave us a lift to catch our flight as it is down a very steep hill. Nice views. Some noise from barking dogs in the night. Overall very good value for money.

Stayed for one night before flying out early. Jill was fabulous. She collected us from the ferry (for a fee) and dropped us at the airport early the next morning for free. This was so helpful as we had a lot of baggage. The house is up a very steep hill but without baggage it's walkable. We used the food shop at the bottom of the hill and walked back up fine. The house is spacious, very comfortable and has a lovely outdoor terrace. Kitchen is well equipped. As other guests have stated there are barking dogs next door and plane noise from the airport. Both stopped by midnight. Take your earplugs! The house is so convenient for the airport though, that these points can be overlooked. Excellent house and stay. Thank you Jill.
