STORY Seychelles

Our stay in Story was an absolute dream. The location was perfect, hidden in the trees, yet only a 10 minute walk along the beach from the town center, the beach access is direct and so beautiful and we loved our grand balcony the most, as it covers well so you can sit outside in the warm tropical air, hear the ocean waves, even when it rains; but really what made all the difference was the staff that made us feel personally welcomed from start to finish, despite the size of the hotel - especially Aama, she is the heart and soul of this hotel, very responsive and diligent manager, that goes all out to assist her guests every day; as well as Jinna Sanjeev, probably the most hard working, fun and kind hearted Pool Manager we've met. He knows what you need before you ask. We wish them all the best and can't wait to return one day! Carmen&Guillaume

I prefer when a hotel allows to put purchases directly on the room (spa treatments or food&drink orders), instead of having to pay every single time; apparently it's only possible at Story if you deposit money on the room in advance, which we didn't know. Minor thing, but this I would change. Also the breakfast buffet is continental, it's ok, not exceptional.

A truly exceptional stay. The villa was beautiful, perfectly located and impeccably clean. What really made our stay special was the outstanding service — the entire team was incredibly kind, professional and attentive to every detail. Whenever we needed anything, the staff were always ready to help and found a solution to every situation. We felt genuinely cared for throughout our stay. A wonderful place that we would happily return to and wholeheartedly recommend! ❤️

The only downside? We couldn’t find one. We suspect the staff must have hidden it somewhere very well. 😂

My family and I had such a wonderful time at STORY. We especially adored the incredibly hospitable staff -- Amaa at the front desk was incredibly present, kind, and attentive to our needs. The beach and pool were fabulous and relaxing, and I would especially recommend going on the free snorkeling excursion the hotel offers. The hotel campus was also stunning and I miss it so much already! Felt like I was in heaven for a week.

The food was good, but the options felt slightly repetitive.

The Story Hotel is situated on a lovely beach and the layout of the Hotel is very good. The rooms are spacious and the aircon works very well. The Breakfast Venue is beautiful. The staff is friendly, although not always up to standard.

The service of the rooms are very irregular. On 2 days our room was not serviced until late in the afternoon. The biggest issue is the Breakfast that used to be scrumptious, but only memories remain. It has been turned into a meagre and mean offering. The gardens between the rooms and the pool is very neglected and need a serious Upgrade. It is obvious - the hotel , that used to be so popular , was seemingly only half occupied, even on Christmas! This hotel has lots of potential, but is seriously neglected. We will not easily return.
