    We had the pleasure of staying here for 9 nights in March. This experience for us as seasoned travelers, was heaven on earth. Most of our time was consumed in our private Villa, though late afternoon sunset and full moonlight swims were for lack of a better word.....AWESOME! We extended our stay for four extra nights, and were given a discount of 30% + meals. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY................

    I can't 'like' this video 5 times so I will have to leave a comment. the resort is so lovely, but you have captured it in such a way that it becomes exceptional, and after your video I feel like I have experienced the resort. I hope one day I may actually be a guest at this delightful location, but in the meantime you have made it real for me. Thank you.

    Good evening doc. This place is uber enchanting. You are left with a feeling that you should fall in love once over to experience it's honeymoon ambience. Seychelles will surely be on my bucket list.
    The highlight of this video is the way you have frozen your camera on the Indian Ocean which is to die for. It is worth rewinding several times to get a glimpse of the swirling waters. The torches by night lend such an irresistible feel to the place. This vlog has left me speechless.

    I've watched so many of these beautifully hypnotic videos that I couldn't remember which one I was looking for and now, after much hunting, I have found it. Coincidentally, I see it was uploaded exactly one year ago, yesterday, when I started searching for it. Thanks for this and all of your others. They are so tranquil that I often use them to relax myself to sleep.

The gardens and the beautiful green and natural vegetation are excellent too. How generous are their with a large size bottle of champagne as a welcome amenity.

    This resort is the most paradise-like place I've ever seen. Everything is just 100% artful, perfect, calming, and inspiring. I imagine the staff are out and about quite early to break the spiderwebs that show up overnight! It was beautiful to see your pavilion and while it looks like 9,000 out of 10 for luxury, I'd be closing some of those doors before dark! I'd have to win a lottery to visit here but even just watching this was very relaxing.

I re-watched the vid for your previous visit, too. As American baseball player Yogi Berra once said, and I paraphrase, "I'm having deja vu all over again". In a good way. The Seychelles can't be beat for natural beauty. Stellar camera work as always, Dr. LTE.

    You should consider getting a 360° camera and making some videos of epic views with that with the camera on a tripod (just let it film with you out of the way because it captures everything and I know you want to protect your privacy). No need to move the camera because people can move the view to any angle with their mouse (or watch it with a VR headset for full immersion).
