TL;DR
Travelers describe Seychelles as slightly cheaper than the Maldives, but still far from a budget destination. Total cost depends heavily on flights and dining style: for example, direct New Year flights for three were reported at RUB 315,000, while food costs range from moderate to expensive depending on where and how you eat.
What the community said
One traveler said Seychelles felt slightly cheaper than the Maldives. It is still an expensive destination overall, especially with direct flights and travel during peak season.

Another opinion was that Seychelles can even work out cheaper than Bali for some travelers. The final budget depends on your travel style, accommodation choice, and on-the-ground spending rather than the destination’s expensive reputation alone.

A concrete example shared was a direct New Year flight for three costing RUB 315,000. Food spending can vary a lot: some meals and venues are priced similarly to other expensive island destinations, though the food scene was described as less varied than in Thailand.
