The Resort is the fourth addition to a collection of Four Seasons resorts on the Indian Ocean, which includes properties in Mauritius (opened in the fall of 2008) and two in the Maldives.
The capital of the Seychelles, Mahé is the largest of the Republic’s 115 tropical islands, situated off the coast of Kenya and northeast of Madagascar. Embracing the natural simplicity of treetop living, Four Seasons Resort Seychelles features 67 secluded villas and suites arranged high on stilts amongst the tropical canopy, overlooking the private, white sandy bay of Petite Anse (Little Cove).
“The Resort feels like a private island,” explains General Manager, Markus Iseli. “Our location in Petite Anse is one of the Republic’s best kept secrets: a sandy horseshoe punctuated by lush vegetation and impressive boulders to create an intimate haven of intimacy and serenity.”
The Resort is designed to showcase the island’s culture and Creole heritage. The hilltop spa offers traditional Seychellois therapies and incorporates indigenous practices and ingredients – such as lemongrass, frangipani and cinnamon – into customized treatments. The Aldabra function room is located within the tropical jungle and the Resort’s exclusive wedding venue, Foumba (‘old house’ in Creole) is located within the atmospheric ruins of a traditional Creole house, open to the stars.
