The Raffles Praslin Seychelles resort is surrounded by historic and important flora. The UNESCO World Heritage Site Vallée de Mai is a palm forest which will take you back to prehistoric times. The area has remained unchanged and offers a glimpse into the past, millions of years ago.

This luxury all villa resort also has the best crystal clear waters from the Indian Ocean and a stunning white beach that overlooks Curieuse Island, which is a National Marine Park.

Attention to detail seems to be Raffles Praslin signature. The villa’s have all been built on a slope, cleverly allowing dramatic and un interrupted clear views of the flora and Ocean.

The villa’s come with everything you need….and because we are talking maximum luxury, they also come with everything that you would like too. For instance, 43-inch plasma television + DVD player, Nespresso coffee machines and complimentary WiFi internet access.

Each villa has an outdoor pavilion, complete with wine cellar, with one and two bedroomed villa’s also having a private barbeque.

On top of all this, each villa has round-the-clock, multi-lingual Signature Raffles Butlers and a private plunge pool.

The resort has some fine gastronomic choices, such as the Curieuse Restaurant which offers an extensive range of fresh seafood and grilled prime cuts. Personalised in-villa dining experiences or the chance to dine on a private yacht are also tempting options.

All this luxury needs backing up with some pampering. The Raffles Spa will enrich, renew and rejuvenate. There are 13 treatment pavilions, six of which are open-air. Additional spa facilities include steam room, sauna and a Spa Garden with a Pavilion for Yoga and Pilates.

With a well thought out kids club at the resort, nearby golf, diving and snorkelling, watersports and island hopping all available, everyone is catered for in complete style.

The Raffles Praslin may be the new kid on the block, but with everything it has going for it, it’s sure to be a seriously popular choice.

Price includes flights on Air Seychelles from London Heathrow, inter-island flights and private transfers, plus UK airport lounge pass.
