Luxury Seychelles holidays
Immaculate sandy beaches, bathed in the brilliant blues of the ocean, where the sun is always out: a holiday in the Seychelles is more than a holiday, it's an experience. Seychelles has always taken the crown as the ultimate place to get away from it all, although it's hardly a competition when it has a landscape this gorgeous.
Hop between the most exclusive hotels each island has, or hole up in your chosen 5-star as long as you possibly can. You'll find exclusive resorts taking over some of Seychelles' best beaches - some with their own private islands - with facilities such as restaurants run by celebrity chefs, suites with private butler service and incredible spas.
Luxury holidays to Seychelles
Best luxury destinations in Seychelles
Famous for their heavenly beaches, the Seychelles are made up of 115 small tropical islands. For the ultimate in privacy and intimate resorts, it's best to stay on one of the smaller islands, such as La Digue, Silhouette or Praslin. For the widest choice of luxury accommodation, stay on the main island of Mahé. It may be the largest island in this sun-drenched archipelago, but you'll still feel surrounded by unspoilt natural beauty.
Best beaches in Seychelles
We would be lying if we told you Seychelles beaches are nothing special, as the country has white, sandy beaches melting into sapphire waters in leaps and bounds. Anse Lazio, on Praslin Island, is a pastel paradise for dreamers marking the ‘best sunset spot in Seychelles’! A crescent, tropical oasis with waters so clear you can count the seashells at the seabed, creating idyllic conditions for snorkelling and diving.
Beau Vallon Beach, Mahé Island, with its long stretch of pristine sand shaded by giant canopy leaves, deserves to be called Beau Vallon. Explore the magical coral reefs where the bay merges with the warm topaz-coloured waters, have lunch in a thatched hut by the sea or join one of the many thrilling water excursions. Many establishments offer day hire options.

Packed with tranquil beaches in a paradise-like setting, the Seychelles is the epitome of luxury with resorts nestled on private islands. With so much choice on the plate, we've selected a few of our favourites...
Home of treetop villas, Four Seasons Resort Seychelles sits at the top of our list. This resort resembles a jungle slice of haven, with each suite hosting its own glistening infinity pool and an open pavilion with day beds, and a fresh fruit basket delivered to your door every morning. Admire the sun-kissed bliss of Petite Anse's horseshoe-shaped beach as you relax at the Hiltop spa or sink your toes into the powdery white bay under the limewood parasols.
Constance Ephelia sits on two secluded beaches overlooking the Port Launay National Marine Park, meaning this resort offers a lush setting of mangroves and emerald pines with turquoise lagoons as a backdrop. There are plenty of accommodation options to choose from, including family villas and presidential suites. The restaurants offer an abundance of gourmet options, served à la carte or as sumptuous buffets. Refined, mouth-watering dishes are served in elegant surroundings, facing a dazzling pool or the sparkling Indian Ocean.
Many of the Seychelles' sumptuous resorts are nestled in a tropical forest, by the sea or on a secluded island... whichever you choose, it's guaranteed bliss!
