About the location
Silhouette Island is just a 45-minute boat ride north-west of the main island of Mahé. It’s got a turbulent history – think rum-swigging pirates and spice plantations – but these days it’s a one-hotel retreat with milk-white beaches and a jungle interior.
Some of the best beaches curve around the north and east coasts, where thick forests and wave-polished boulders shelter clear turquoise bays. Anse La Passe is one of the finest beaches. It unspools from the front door of the Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa, which tops the fine sands with sunloungers and a PADI diving centre.
Out to sea, you’ve got a dive-friendly ocean well-stocked with turtles and rays. Behind, there’s the mountainous interior that lends the island its name; the sharp-toothed silhouette of Mont Dauban can be spied all the way from Mahé. The accompanying jungle is straight out of Jurassic Park, thanks to the virgin rainforest. Luckily, the only critters you’ll find here are rare Seychelles specials like giant tortoises and black-crowned night herons.

“ CAR VANDALISM IN THE HON CAR PARK

Please be warned my car was vandalized in the car park of HIlton Labriz while I was staying at the hotel for my birthday. No member of staff was willing to help me and they are not accountable for anything. The security you see at the GATE is only for sleeping and ensuring the guests gets on and off the boat. However, it was the security who instructed us exactly where to park the car on the day.
They have no cameras in the car park. Yet MR Thomas Porter (operations manager) has the audacity to compare their car park to the car park of the company which my Fianc?? works for. He stated that they are very much alike. I think Mr Porter was out to give us a piece of his mind rather than assist us in trying to find a solution. And the cheek he had in the email, that he will only help within the resource they possess after clearly stating they have none because they don't have a camera and the security in the car park is not there to watch over the car park. As a Seychellois I will be report Mr porter to the employment bureau and will this until some action is taken.

As part of BA's new direct route to the Seychelles, we spent a heavenly week in a King Beachfront Villa w/plunge pool and loved every minute of it.
POSITIVES
- Villa - large, on the beach, quiet and we especially loved the secluded plunge pool/outdoor shower at the back. Allowed you to take a dip if the tide was out! Bathroom also overlooked the rain forest which was great with the large shower and bath! We preferred these villas to the larger villas with the beach pool which were a 160 Euro/night upgrade because of the private pool at the back (the front pool isn't private)
- Location. Amazing! Sandy beaches, clear blue waters, what more can you want? The beach front villas made you feel you had your own private beach!
- Service. 99% of staff were helpful, polite and went out of your way to help. Room was kept spotless during our stay.
OBSERVATIONS
- Breakfast - good but not 5*. No menu to choose specialities (i.e. eggs benedict etc.) and people getting in your way when choosing from the buffet. Not up to the standard of other 5* resorts. Also Caf?? Dauban, where the evening buffet/breakfast is served is not air conditioned which we would???ve expected
- Wireless. Very intermittent, couldn't connect, not very fast. Not important to us but if you're expecting to watch Netflix in your room, forget it!
- Our taxi from the airport to the jetty didn???t appear despite me booking it. Thankfully I had my confirmation email and managed to arrange one via the Hilton Labriz drivers waiting for other guests. The driver drove especially quickly to ensure we made the 9:30am ferry... just! The hotel gave us complementary taxi back to the airport which was sufficient.
RECOMMENDATIONS
- Dinner - unless you like to eat loads, we didn???t think the cost of half board or full board was worth it. The "all you can eat" buffet is 60 Euro's per person (and doesn???t include alcohol) yet you can have a 2-course meal with a drink for roughly the same price and enjoy table service whilst avoiding the bun fight of a buffet.
- Prices. Generally they were OK to expensive. We were B&B, bought our own snacks/drink to consume in the afternoon and ate out each night and still spend ??1200 between two people including transfers. Budget ??60 per head per day minimum but realistically with a bottle of wine and a 3 course meal each night with bar drinks, you can easily hit ??100+ pp per day
- Restaurants. Food is of a good quality but nowhere near Michelin star. Sakura and Grann Kaz were our favourites, we avoided Cafe Dauban (buffet and too expensive - ??130 for two plus a drink each) and didn't like the soulless Portobello
- Kids. The hotel does not claim to be adult only and we noticed a lot of babies in the resort and to be fair, they were mostly well behaved. However if you want a kids-free holiday, you need a beach front villa otherwise you'll be near the pool with the kids
- Check out. Do so the night before - bit busy in the morning
- Get a beach front villa with the plunge pool at the back
- Service. We did encounter some "firm" staff who were trying to be polite but falling slightly short of the mark! We felt this was cultural rather than anything else.
Overall, we had an amazing, relaxing time and was a perfect holiday.

This is hands down the best hotel we have ever stayed in! The grounds are so beautiful the country is gorgeous everywhere is picturesque!
We would recommend a beach villa being right on the beach is unbeatable, but we spoke to many people who loved the garden rooms which were also close to the beach. We were worried about having enough water from previous reviews but you get 2 bottles in your room everyday! That was more than enough for us, but there is always more free water in the spa and the gym. If you can drag yourself away from the beach the poolside is fabulous and relaxing don???t forget to order a coconut which is really cheap. Also definitely visit the spa at least for one day the massages are lovely and the jacuzzi and pool there are so quiet and relaxing. It is quite expensive on the island but this is to be expected for a luxury resort and it is worth every penny!
The staff are all amazing especially the bartender Davido and the manager. Everyone was more than happy to help with anything we needed. We will definitely be returning!
If you are thinking about booking here just do it! You will not regret it.

We spent 7 nights at Hilton Labriz.
The hotel has an exceptional location which makes the stay unique.
All villas and facilities are very well fitted in the nature and well maintained.
The breakfast was grand but I would not give it 5* comparing to other 5* Hilton hotels.
We loved the buffets at Dauban Restaurant but I doubt it was worth 60 euro/pp each.
The villas and facilities are very clean and kept up to standards
However the service can be improved a bit. Some of the staff can show you their irritation.
Also the time is very relevant to them.
And you have to ask a very close questions and make sure they understand. Many times when I asked ?????? or ???.??? The answer was ???yes??? :)
Last but not least, before our arrival we particularly asked for a quite villa, far away from families with kids. Surprise! Our villa was surrounded by 2 families. Fortunately they accommodated us in a different villa upon our complain. Half day wasted.
Special ???thank you??? to our housekeeper Vetri for keeping our villa so clean and creating such a beautiful decors of the towels.
Overall, except these few issues, I would recommend Hilton Labriz to anyone who wants to feel a bit of paradise.
