Our View

Of the above, Constance Ephelia offers the best value, although it is a much larger resort. If you’re seeking a more exclusive luxury experience on Mahé, we particularly like Four Seasons Seychelles. Alphonse Island and Denis Island are both fantastic, offering a more adventurous, Robinson Crusoe-style escape, while the luxury private islands deliver truly high-end, once-in-a-lifetime experiences. North Island arguably sits in a tier of its own, reflected in its price point.

Please note you will likely need to overnight in Mahe before heading onto another island.
