## Our read

The villa is the argument: a pool, an outdoor shower, and a reading pavilion on a hillside above a private bay. Le Syel sits at the top of that hill, and the treatment they name after the coco de mer is specific to this island, not a menu that could be anywhere.

## Come here for

- A villa with its own infinity pool above Petite Anse
- Le Syel, and the coco de mer ritual they name
- Mahé, thirty minutes from the airport, not an outer island

## Skip it if

- You want a flat beach hotel you can walk end to end
- The hill, and the climb to the spa, sounds like the wrong kind of effort
