Desroches Island Resort, Mahe, Seychelles

Unwind in the lap of sophistication at Desroches Island Resort, a tropical paradise surrounded by sand, sea and coral reefs. The beachfront suites are set in coconut groves near the best diving sites in the Seychelles. There is an Asian-inspired spa, swimming pool and a great choice of bars and restaurants. Blending harmoniously with their palm-studded surroundings, just 20 exquisite suites with draped king-size beds and polished timber flooring all have terraces with stunning views of the Indian Ocean. Dine in the alfresco restaurant under a shady thatch, with the sand beneath your feet, while you enjoy fresh island cuisine. The Spa is the ideal retreat for a traditional Asian massage. Alternatively, enjoy a game of tennis, snorkel the coral reefs or learn to dive with PADI instructors and explore the nearby coral caves, passages and canyons. The Desroches Island Resort is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
