Thinking of a holiday to the Seychelles? Excellent idea!  Nature was in a very good mood when she made these islands scattered in the Indian Ocean.   The beaches are definitely the major attraction – unhurried, almost deserted, white sands caressing topaz waters and backed by lush hills…

So out of the 115 self-contained paradises on offer, which island should you go for? Whether it’s one of the three main islands of Mahé, Praslin or La Digue or any of the outlying islands, you’ll always find a real pot of gold!   Mahé is the largest island in the Seychelles and is home to the capital city of Victoria.  Mahé’s not all beaches though!  The interior boasts the Morne Seychellois National Park (more about that in our next blog).

Our selection of hotels and resorts matches this stunning environment.  The Banyan Tree, overlooking the scenic Intendance Bay on the south coast, is a first class luxury resort offering private villas, fine dining and watersports.   Le Méridien Barbarons on the west coast is set amidst tropical gardens, sparkling indigo lagoons, and pure white sands.  The intimate Sunset Beach Hotel on the north-west coast perches on a headland with spectacular views of the Indian Ocean.
