Company Profile

Seychelles Island Expert

SeyVillas is a specialist Seychelles tour operator with a special focus on creating individual, personalised island-hopping tours. Thanks to our numerous years of experience and close ties to this country, our team has built up an extensive, sometimes exclusive range of accommodation on a variety of the Seychelles' islands. Employees regularly check these accommodations first-hand, and are in close contact with the relevant hoteliers and accommodation owners. This way, our team is able to ensure that they give comprehensive advice based on the individual needs and wishes of the customer.

From Seychelles Fan to Seychelles Professional

The seyvillas.com portal went live in 2011 after an intensive period of research and preparation. Personal contacts and the vast array of small accommodations such as apartments and guesthouses made the Seychelles the ideal destination for the foundation of this specialised tour operator. Initially, the portfolio was built up with different types of accommodation, from self-catering houses to hotels, lodgings, and guesthouses. Today, the company not only caters for the German market, but also for the French and Italian markets in their respective native languages, as well as worldwide in English. Founder Julian Grupp is a true Seychelles expert: early on, he was a fan of the archipelago, made friends with the country and its people over the years and developed a great knowledge of the islands. Since 2019, Francesca Ruggero and Walter Cuccarano have also been among the managing directors, who have learned to appreciate the nature and people of the Seychelles on their numerous trips.

The Spectrum of the Seychelles

SeyVillas offers a wide range of accommodation in the Seychelles. Clients can choose from a variety of holiday apartments and guesthouses, including catering facilities, for every budget and group size. This way, couples, small groups, and large families are all able to enjoy the Seychelles. In addition to self-catering accommodation, the SeyVillas portfolio contains smaller hotels, guesthouses, and B&Bs, as well as larger hotels and luxury resorts. Customers can filter this portfolio by price range, type of accommodation, number of travellers, and the type of catering option desired, as well as choose which island(s) they would like to visit, including Mahé, Praslin, La Digue, Cerf Island, and other smaller islands. In fact, SeyVillas provides accommodation on all of the Seychelles' inhabited islands. All of SeyVillas' holidays can be booked to include international transport, or customers may arrange their own travel. It is also possible to book sailing trips and cruises with SeyVillas.

Why enjoy one island when you can enjoy many?

One of SeyVillas' particular strong points is island-hopping, where customers can easily combine two or more Seychelles highlights in one holiday. This is possible thanks to SeyVillas' so-called Island-Hopping Configurator, which allows customers to combine multiple destinations within the Seychelles in just a few clicks. For example, a client could book a combination holiday consisting of one large and two smaller islands, including the accommodation on each island. These packages also contain transfers between the airport and the hotels or guesthouses. All offers can also be booked to contain a flight to/from the country of origin. Once the customer has decided on his/her personal island-hopping package, he/she will receive a call from one of our staff in order to finalise and fine-tune the offer based on special requests by the customer.
