It took almost a year and a half to get here but we finally made it to the Seychelles.  This trip was initiated, then postponed by the pandemic:  in mid-2020, Qatar Airways offered two free round-trip tickets anywhere they flew to a few lucky “healthcare heroes”.  I was lucky enough to secure these tickets and had planned a trip to the Seychelles in October 2020.  Unfortunately, they had closed their borders by October and the tickets went to waste.  Luckily, nearly a year later, Qatar Airways reached out and offered a “do-over” on this special promotion.  This time we planned ahead, bought a couple of extra tickets, and, voila–Spring Break for the Bowles Family in the Seychelles!

Arriving in Mahe, we chose to stay at The Mango House, a new boutique hotel affiliated with the Hilton Brand.  As it turns out, it was an excellent choice.  Fantastic rooms, amazing views, great restaurants, and impeccable service.
