[Ashvin Sawmynaden]

Seychelles has establishes itself as an extremely popular tourist destination thanks to several assets. Its beaches are among the most beautiful in the world, the island is in a great location where it benefits from a superb weather all year long, and it is the perfect place for honeymoons due to its utterly relaxing lifestyle and the romantic places it harbors. Seychelles has been exclusively covered as top destination by media from several countries and is particularly favored by couples for weddings and honeymoons.

 

Due to its popularity, the rates charged by hotels in Seychelles has kept on increasing over the past years. Many people take a quick look at these prices and often abandon the idea of visiting the Seychelles to look for a cheaper destination. However, it is relatively straightforward to find affordable prices in the Seychelles as long as you know what you are doing.

 

There are a few methods of finding cheaper hotels that will provide excellent value for money:

• Try to find hotels Seychelles packages that include accommodation and other facilities such as activities or tours of the islands. These are always cheaper than paying for everything separately.

• It is arguably cheaper to book your hotel through a website comparison service instead of doing so directly through the hotel website. Travel agent websites are more likely to offer cheaper prices as hotels are inclined to charge as much as possible.

• As with any other destination, you should book your hotel as early as possible but this is even more important for travel Seychelles bundles which tend to run out quite fast.

• There are 3 main islands in the Seychelles where the hotels are located: Mahe, La Digue, and Praslin. You should always look for your hotels in these islands first.

• The Seychelles has been recently known for providing a wealth of alternate accommodation that includes self catering villas, lodges, guesthouses, and small apartments. These are very cheap compared to luxury hotels and still provide a great accommodation especially for large families.

• It is quite possible to negotiate directly with hotels to obtain cheaper prices or better deals. However, this cannot be done if you are booking well in advance although you may strike lucky if you are persistent enough.

If you take all these points into consideration, it is quite possible to find great deals on your Seychelles hotel. The most important thing is to make your research properly so you don't pick the first hotel you see as you always need some time to find that special deal that will make your trip to the Seychelles so worthwhile.
