Seychelles - Silhouette - Praslin - Félicité
100% customisable for you
Overnight flight arriving the following day.
Meet and greet at the airport and private transfer to the port. Boat crossing to Silhouette Island before settling in for three nights at a highly intimate hotel. The rooms on the first floor have balconies overlooking the sea. Those on the ground floor, which are slightly raised, have beautiful terraces. Inside, you’ll find gorgeous Pierre Frey fabrics and all the modern amenities you might need. The restaurant tables let you enjoy delicious meals facing the ocean. The French chef offers fusion cuisine made with fresh, local ingredients. There is also a lounge and a library where you can learn all about both Silhouette Island and the Seychelles through travel guides and books on shells, turtles, the local flora and the island’s history. The highlight of this location is the white sand beach right in front of the house.
Here, you can alternate between relaxing by the pool or in the turquoise sea, or set off to explore Ramasse Tout, Jardin Marron or Grand Barbe and its turtles, all nestled in postcard-perfect coves. Silhouette Island is probably the closest thing to heaven on earth. There are no roads on the island apart from the path connecting the only two hotels on the north-east coast. This makes this small island a paradise for hikers. If you’d like company, your hotel offers a wide range of activities: fishing trips, Creole cooking classes, nature and plant discovery walks with a guide, coconut tree workshops, and more.
Already planned - A cruise around the island. Long uninhabited, Silhouette Island was only populated from the mid-19th century onwards. This sense of paradise is embodied by the coconut palms lining a pristine beach, the dense tropical vegetation crowning its summit and a stunning lagoon that seems to encircle the entire island.
Transfer to the port, boat crossing, then another transfer to Mahé airport where you’ll hop on a flight to Praslin. Private transfer then settle in for three nights at your second idyllic retreat, located just a few steps from the beautiful Côte d’Or beach. We love the charming, palm thatched-roof buildings open to the trade winds, the sophisticated cuisine, the huge bathrooms and the beautiful pool area. Just like the delightful common areas, the cool and spacious rooms feature attractive bohemian décor that will immediately make you feel at home. You’re also ideally located for a walk to the village. The beach too is just a stone’s throw away…
The second largest island in the Seychelles and famous for its idyllic beaches, Praslin is also home to one of the oldest primary forests: The legendary Vallée de Mai reimagines a primeval world where the largest seed in the world - the unusual, bum-shaped coco fesse - grows. Here, the earth is red, the parrots are black and the beaches are immaculately white.
Things to do and experience - Enjoy breakfast on the terrace or sip a cocktail at sunset; unwind in the pool and have a nap on your sun lounger; make the most of the breeze to perfect your windsurfing skills; go snorkelling, an absolute must; work on your swing at the magnificent golf course (the most beautiful in the archipelago) and marvel at the views along the way…
Optional - Spend a day exploring the island of La Digue by bike.
Private transfer to Praslin port, then a boat crossing to the island of Félicité. Settle in for three nights at the only establishment on this tiny island. An oasis of refinement and serenity surrounded by the Indian Ocean in this ideal setting of an untouched wild island.
Neighbouring La Digue and Praslin, Félicité is a small granite island with lush vegetation, fringed with powdery sand beaches. A paradise haven to enjoy for two days from your simply divine villa: a private infinity pool, a terrace, a wine cellar and private pantry, an outdoor shower, lush green vegetation, the turquoise blue ocean and a dedicated butler to fulfil your every desire. The days pass peacefully, whether you’re lazing on the sand, relaxing by the pool, snorkelling, going out to sea, walking, cycling or doing yoga in the early morning…
Optional - At sunset, enjoy a champagne apéritif, seated comfortably on sofas at the top of the granite hill.
Private helicopter transfer to Mahé airport - a spectacle in and of itself, and a chance to take in the breathtaking views before you leave - then your international flight home. Overnight flight arriving the following day.
