The luxury Raffles Resort, Seychelles

This resort, debuting on 1st February 2011, is the first Raffles Resort in the Indian Ocean – and will be the most exclusive resort on the island of Praslin. Famous for its stunning beaches and crystal clear waters, it is also home to the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Vallée de Mai, which houses the endemic Coco de Mer palms and prehistoric flora making it an environment like none other.

Raffles Praslin Seychelles is a luxurious all villa resort with private plunge pools.

The Raffles Spa, the first signature Spa within the Raffles brand, is integral to the resort embracing the philosophy of putting body and mind in harmony. Treatments are inspired by the transformation of the Lotus, taking the guest on a journey: enriching, renewing and rejuvenating. There are 13 treatment pavilions, six open-air, which are set among natural rock formations above the water and close to the ocean. Additional spa facilities include steam room, sauna and a Spa Garden with a Pavilion for Yoga and Pilates.
