Mango House

Overview

Chic hideaway at the water’s edge

Tucked into a sheltered crescent on Mahé’s southwest coast, Mango House is a sleek boutique retreat of just 41 villas and suites, each with sea or hillside views and breezy colonial‑chic design. Villas range from Deluxe rooms to one‑ to three-bedroom suites featuring high‑beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, airy patios, and indoor–outdoor bathrooms.

The resort’s hive of shared spaces centers on its main building: a 25 m infinity pool overlooking the bay, three swimming pools, a spa, gym, and three distinct dining venues – Muse (all‑day Mediterranean), Azido (Japanese), and Moutya (Creole) – plus Kokoye pool bar. Guests can also enjoy shisha lounges and guided cocktail‑making classes.

There’s always somewhere new to discover: hidden nooks by quiet pools, an intimate beach cove, and scenic lounge spots above the cliffs. Service is gracious and attentive, with buggy transfers connecting each corner of the property.

What our
Travelers say

South africa honeymoon

"Thank you for the best honeymoon we could’ve imagined! We spent 5 nights on safari at luxury lodges, followed by 3 nights in Cape Town, and ended our journey on a stunning private nature reserve. Everything ran seamlessly, and the team stayed in touch with us throughout. Words can’t describe how incredible the experience was."

From handpicking exceptional properties to being available before 8am on a Saturday, their attention to detail and high-touch service made my South African journey seamless.
