On Friday, February 28th, the Tourism Department unveiled the Star Grading, Universal Accessibility Accreditation, and Seychelles Secrets Recognition programs, establishing new benchmarks for excellence in hospitality.
Lodoicea Apartments was honored with the Seychelles Secret Gold Certificate, the highest classification awarded in the category of self-catering apartments.
The primary objective of the hotel classification program is to enhance standardization and professionalism within the tourism industry.
Lodoicea Apartments was evaluated across several categories, including:
- Location, Access, and Exterior
- Safety and Security
- Reception Services
- Guest Unit Amenities (including bathroom and kitchen)

An established grading system enables discerning travelers to understand a hotel's standards in advance, thereby setting clear expectations for the quality of offerings prior to making a reservation. It is essential to recognize that the standard of facilities and services significantly influences a visitor's choice of destination.
