Life on Board

Sea Star’s inviting design blends traditional seafaring style with generous social spaces.
Guests can unwind on the two-tiered sun deck, enjoy al fresco dining on the shaded aft deck, or gather in the air-conditioned lounge and bar.
All cabins feature private bathrooms, daily housekeeping, reading lights, and 220V European outlets.

The atmosphere onboard is relaxed yet refined — authentic Seychellois hospitality complemented by the friendly crew and their passion for island life.

Dining & Cuisine

The onboard chef prepares daily menus inspired by Creole and international flavours, showcasing fresh seafood, tropical produce, and aromatic island spices.
Breakfast features fruits, eggs, and pastries, while lunch and dinner bring buffet or three-course dining.
Guests may dine in the salon, outdoors on deck, or picnic-style ashore.

A self-service bar offers soft drinks, beer, and wine, while stewardesses are on hand for aperitifs and sunset cocktails.
