Highlights

  • Two‑island luxury combining Mahé’s rainforest peaks with Desroches’ coral‑white tranquillity.
  • Panoramic hillside villas, private beaches and world‑class dining throughout.
  • Snorkelling, paddle boarding and swimming in calm turquoise bays.
  • Visit a conservation‑led tortoise sanctuary on remote Desroches Island.
  • Explore by bicycle, boat or on foot, from jungle trails to hidden coves.

This indulgent Seychelles escape pairs two contrasting islands, each offering its own rhythm of luxury and natural beauty. Begin with three nights on Mahé, where jungle‑covered hillsides sweep down to crescent beaches and your hillside retreat offers panoramic views across the Indian Ocean. Spend your days exploring rainforest trails, snorkelling turquoise bays or unwinding in open‑air spa pavilions. Then fly to Desroches, a coral island of palm‑lined sands, vibrant reefs and slow‑paced island living. Here, five nights of barefoot seclusion await, with complimentary bicycles, private beaches, world‑class diving and unforgettable sunsets. It’s a journey designed for those seeking both serenity and discovery in one of the world’s most beautiful archipelagos.


Days 1 – 3

Mahé: Rainforest coves, hidden beaches & island serenity

Arriving in Mahé, you’re met and transferred along winding coastal roads framed by granite peaks, rainforest folds and glimpses of turquoise sea. Your hillside retreat offers sweeping views across the bay, with villas cascading down the forested slopes. Settle into island time with an afternoon swim or a stroll to the beach, perfect for swimming, snorkelling and stand‑up paddle boarding in calm waters. For those keen to explore, guided hikes lead through jungle trails to mountaintop viewpoints, while island tours reveal Mahé’s markets, botanical gardens and hidden coves. Back at the resort, retreat to the hilltop spa, where open‑air treatment pavilions overlook the Indian Ocean and therapies draw on indigenous botanicals. You might join a yoga session in the treetops, try a surfing lesson or simply relax by the pool with panoramic views.

Days 4 – 8

Desroches Island: Coral‑island calm, reef adventures & barefoot seclusion

After breakfast, transfer to Mahé Airport for the short scenic flight to Desroches Island. As you descend, the landscape shifts from granite peaks to low‑lying coral sands, palm groves and reef‑bright shallows. On arrival, you’re welcomed into your second island retreat, a place of barefoot luxury where villas sit among tropical gardens and the horizon stretches endlessly into the Indian Ocean. Complimentary bicycles await at your villa, ideal for exploring the island’s 14 km of sandy trails leading to secluded beaches, lookout points and quiet coves. Offshore, the waters teem with life: join private snorkelling trips, scuba diving excursions or boat adventures to encounter rays, turtles and thriving coral gardens. On land, visit the island’s conservation‑led tortoise sanctuary, relax by the pool, or indulge in ocean‑inspired spa rituals. Dining is a highlight, with fresh seafood, Creole flavours and laid‑back beachside meals. Evenings often end with sunset cocktails on powder‑white sands, where the only sounds are the waves and the breeze through the palms.

About the itinerary

"I created this itinerary to showcase two of the Seychelles’ most beautiful contrasts – the granite island of Mahé and the castaway coral calm of Desroches. Together, they offer a perfect balance of relaxation and discovery. On Mahé, you can slow down among jungle‑covered hillsides, hidden coves and panoramic ocean views, while Desroches brings that rare sense of barefoot seclusion. What's more, the journey is experienced from two of Four Seasons’ finest Indian Ocean resorts."
