Beautiful hotel with great facilities; two infinity pools, superb villas with outdoors showers (book the villas!), golf buggy service, and great bar. The staff is extremely nice, welcoming and helpful, and very responsive. Breakfast will keep you fed for the whole day until dinner, which is great considering the lack of food options on the island. Bonus point for the free kayak and snorkelling equipment.
Consistent with other comments here, the quality of the food is below expectations for a 4-star hotel (for example, our fruit salad for dessert was frozen, poached eggs were too cooked, and the pana cotta was half liquid). The ‘beach’ is also underwhelming (basically none at high tide), but the hotel made up for it with a nice sandy deck by the water with lounge chairs.

Fabulous quiet and secluded location with great snorkelling and beautiful infinity pool and beach, yet very close to the airport so very easy to get to. Lovely secluded villa in the rainforest with outdoor shower. Great service including golf buggy rides to the villas at any time, invisible housekeeping, very helpful and immediately responsive reception staff, great boat taxi and some very friendly waiters. Limited phone and Wi-Fi coverage actually turned out to be a blessing rather than a pain. We all talked and read a lot more and slept much better as a result, but the Wi-Fi was there at the beach and pool near reception for when we needed it.
As everywhere in the Seychelles the trips were very expensive. The food was much better than we expected from other reviews, some of the meals were very good, but some were just ok. I would have loved some of the local curries but these rarely seemed to be on the dinner menu.

Cerf Island Resort is a precious relax corner among the other amenities of the Seychelles. Beside the beautiful location, situated into the jungle, the staff has been incredibly kind and helpful since the moment of the reservation, until even after our departure (we forgot the ipad on the room and they brought it to us at the airport, at night!!!). A special thank to the receptionist Bhargav who has been so helpful, nice and friendly to us. We can't wait to return!!

The villa offered the unique experience of an open-air shower beneath the sky. One of the highlights of our stay was being able to rent a kayak free of charge, which allowed us to visit the nearby sandbank. The view from the helipad was truly breathtaking, both at sunset and in broad daylight.
Overall the food was good, only the pizza and pasta were below european standards.

The property is on a Island close to Mahe. But the resort operates complimentary boat service to Mahe and other Islands close by which is very useful for the guests. Both Prakash and Raju at the reception was very helpful in getting our delayed baggage and organizing trips. We would recommend this property if you are looking for a quiet and peaceful holiday in Seychelles.

So peaceful. Good food. Lovely friendly staff.
The giant tortoises should have a much bigger area to live in. Beaches are small and lots of seaweed. Not a lot they can do about that but may be relevant to other guests. Could do with more exercise facilities.

The location, island, staff and services were superb. We felt the very personal and approachable service and loved our stay there and that we got to know the staff members a bit. The tours we were able to book were amazing too and it was all so smooth and uncomplicated. Everyone was extremely friendly and made us feel special. The villa was great too.
There's only wifi in the reception area, and the water in the shower could have been a bit hotter (probably warm enough for most people though, especially during hotter and peak travelling times)

A beautiful resort, but we had difficulty walking because it is on a mountain and we always had to go up and down to the restaurant and reception. The villas are large and beautiful, made from wood, but few of them overlook the sea and most of them overlook the garden.
The restaurant is not diverse, has few options, and has no nightlife, and the spa is modest. The place is suitable for relaxation, but the options are limited

Spacious, plush villas each hidden within the beautiful natural hillside forest equipped with everything you need to relax in comfort
I enjoy walking and climbing but if you need to avoid stairs, request lower accommodation closer to the common area buildings

1) The staff is super friendly and always willing to help and solve any issues which you might come across with. 2) Breakfast: Excellent, really complete. 3) Dinner: Excellent, my congratulations to the chef.
The price could be improved, even if the hotel is wonderful and really well maintained, the prices for the room I got seemed a bit high for a short stay.
