Raffles
Raffles has long been one of the most popular hotels in the Seychelles for Out Of Office travelers. Aptly referred to as the mythological and idyllic ‘Garden of Eden’, the island of Praslin in the Seychelles provides the perfect setting for this luxury 5-star resort.

All of the villas are oversized and have sprawling king-size beds. This is a great choice if you’d like a larger resort for your Seychelles adventure. Be sure to explore the number of UNESCO World Heritage sites nearby along with the world-renowned beaches of this pristine island such as Anse Lazio.
Four Seasons Resort
The Four Seasons is one of the great luxury hotel brands. The Seychelles’ Four Seasons can be found in the secluded Petite Anse Bay on the southwest coast of Mahé. This is the Seychelles’ largest island. This luxury resort hosts an array of amazing facilities.

The spa retreat is a refuge of well-being, sitting high above the beach with promises of blissful seclusion and island-inspired healing rituals for your body and mind.

The was the first Six Senses hotel to open in Africa. It’s one of the coolest hotels on the island. The decor is very chic. It’s a more intimate hotel, comprised of just 30 villas. This is an eco-friendly resort built mostly from locally sourced materials.
Our Experts
La Digue is the Seychelles' most visually recognizable island, complete with huge granite boulders and acres of lush jungle. The beauty of La Digue is not only its beauty but also its proximity to the equally awe-inspiring Praslin.
The Seychelles has a sheer wealth of luxury resorts and hotel properties scattered across its luscious terrain, and it's unique in the fact that homosexuality is not criminalized.
Stellar service. Stellar products. Stellar people and it gets so much better when you pick up the phone and call.
