Simply the best hotel
North Island, known locally as Ile du Nord, is located about thirty kilometers from the main island of Mahé. The island includes two hundred ten acres of lush tropical flora, coconut palms, takamaka trees and beaches so white they merge into the azure ocean. On the east coast are eleven exclusive guest villas, each furnished with natural materials and designed to blend seamlessly with nature. From your villa, your feet are within a few steps in the soft white sand and all you hear is the rhythm of the ocean. A little further on, tucked between imposing granite rocks, a sky-blue forty-five-meter pool awaits. A wonderful place for a few refreshing laps, then settle down overlooking the island that embraces you with silence. The ocean invites you to snorkel, dive, fish or kayak.
There is no menu here. Instead, you consult with the chef who is happy to put together the most refined dishes for you, completely tailored to your wishes and to the ingredients of the day. Together with an excellent wine, you will enjoy dinner at a place of your choosing. On the beach or at your villa. The tranquility, privacy and pure indulgence make your stay feel like you are on a desert island. North Island is without a doubt one of the most impressive beach destinations on earth. The natural beauty of the island and the thoughtful design of the lodge combine to create something exceptional.
Sea turtles on North Island
You can also visit the rare giant tortoises. Seychelles and particularly North Island are an important place for hawksbill and green sea turtles, which nest and find food there. For centuries, these species were hunted, but after a worldwide ban, Seychelles took strict conservation measures. On North Island, the turtles are now closely monitored. Thanks to these efforts, the number of nests has increased significantly, with record numbers in recent years.
