Using the vouchers as a Diamond member

We got a total of 10 vouchers: 2 local cocktails, 2 softdrinks, 2 wines by glass, romantic bath experience, 15% off at Eforea Spa, 20 % off laundry and complimentary 4 bottles of water. We did not use all but tried to make the most of it.

This romantic bath experience should be booked 24 hours prior but since we were only staying for 1 night, the hotel made an exception and had it done on the same day we arrived. This include 2 glasses of sparkling wine and fruit skewers 👍

Mike had the Mojito while I had the Long Island iced tea (non-alcoholic) at the Ocean View Bar

I had Ginger Ale and Mike had a glass of white wine at the Mahé during our dinner.

CONCLUSION

We actually stayed at three Hilton properties during our stay in the Seychelles, the other 2 being the Mango House LXR and the Canopy Seychelles. This hotel is my favorite because they had a nice beach where I enjoyed snorkeling and saw lovely fishes and they also have a complimentary shuttle to Beau Vallon and Victoria where you get to meet the locals and explore the capital city, the way we did. Of course, the vouchers we got as a diamond member was a big plus and the room/villa was also very spacious. To all the staff of the Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa, thank you for making our stay memorable!
