Our Fall ’26 Escape

Set among the lush landscapes of Praslin, Raffles Seychelles strikes a rare balance between privacy, natural beauty and understated luxury. Contemporary design meets Creole character at this sophisticated island retreat, where the pace is deliberately slower and the setting does most of the talking.

Just moments from the famous Anse Lazio beach, the resort is an ideal place to disappear before the holiday travel rush begins. Days can be spent between the beach, the infinity pool and the spa, or exploring the natural treasures of Praslin, including the UNESCO-listed Vallée de Mai. The atmosphere is serene and refined, with a quiet emphasis on wellness, privacy and experiences shaped around the island itself.

Raffles Seychelles comprises 86 spacious villas, each with a private plunge pool, an outdoor pavilion, and views over the Indian Ocean or the surrounding tropical gardens. Interiors are modern and airy, balancing sleek furnishings with deep soaking tubs, outdoor rain showers and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the landscape inside.

Every villa is designed for seclusion, complemented by personal butler service and the option to dine privately in the villa. It is luxury without the need to announce itself.

The dining follows the same relaxed sophistication. Curieuse Restaurant serves refined Asian cuisine, while Losean offers all-day dining with a Mediterranean influence. At the Pool Bar, cocktails and lighter fare accompany long afternoons by the water, while private dining can be arranged on the beach or in the privacy of your villa. The emphasis is on fresh ingredients, global influences and beautifully considered presentation.

Beyond the villas, there is plenty to draw you into the landscape. Snorkelling, kayaking, paddleboarding and hiking offer different ways to explore the island and its surrounding waters, while the award-winning Raffles Spa provides a quieter counterpoint, with treatments inspired by local ingredients and traditional rituals.

Or simply do nothing. A yoga session overlooking the ocean, an afternoon beside the infinity pool or a slow walk toward the beach may be all the itinerary requires.

For Fall ’26, Raffles Seychelles makes a particularly persuasive case for the disappearing act: somewhere beautiful, private and effortlessly removed from the noise. Let’s Book It
