Banyan Tree Seychelles ★★★★★
A slice of colourful paradise in the Indian Ocean.
By Hannah Wright, VeryChic correspondent
When I think of the Seychelles, colourful images of coral sunsets, topaz waters, white-sand beaches and verdant green jungles start filling my mind… it’s a tropical dream-come-true, and every breathtaking view leaves me speechless. Be charmed into this exquisite slice of island life with a trip to the Banyan Tree Seychelles, a five-star resort nestled in a secluded bay overlooking the Indian Ocean.
Welcome to the Seychelles. No, this isn’t a dream. This is really what it looks like – the sand is that white, the sea is that clear, and the scenes are even more beautiful than the photos. Set over 1000 miles from the east coast of Africa, the island of Mahé is incredibly diverse, with a densely forested interior sprinkled with picturesque waterfalls and unique Creole villages, encircled by palm-fringed beaches and coves. If you want to experience the unspoiled beauty of this island, then we warmly invite you to the Banyan Tree Seychelles…
Wander over to your Beachfront Pool Villa, surrounded by greenery and sheltered by the rainforest canopy, and you’ll find your personal tropical abode. Resting at the foot of the bay, this exclusive Creole-style space stretched over 251 square metres and features an expansive veranda with a private steam room and swimming pool, as well as a sundeck and patio with sun loungers where you can relax with a refreshing cocktail.
Of course a trip here wouldn’t be complete without paying a visit to the award-winning spa. Offering top-of-the-range treatments and therapies to recharge your body, soul and spirit, the experts use local indigenous ingredients to draw all the tension out from your body. You can even opt for a full day pampering package, including a steam and flower bath, a choice of massages and scrubs, a body conditioner, spa cuisine and a selection of facials and hand and foot treatments. This takes relaxation to a whole new level!
After all that cleansing it must be time to refuel. Which restaurant will you choose tonight? We recommend the signature Saffron restaurant, where you can indulge in Thai and Southeast Asian dishes alongside charming views of the wetland. Or perhaps Chez Lamar, for unique cuisine influenced by a mixture of European, African, Caribbean and Indian flavours, enjoyed on the alfresco wooden veranda where you’ll be accompanied by the sounds of soothing ocean waves. Or for an even more romantic setting, you can choose to dine on a secluded stretch of sand whilst witnessing a fiery sunset streaked across a technicolour sky. It’s as magical as it sounds, trust us.
