Banyan Tree Seychelles Resort & Spa  

On Mahé Island, tucked by Anse Intendance and a short hop from Takamaka Beach. About 12 km from the city center, this resort and villa complex sits on a lush stretch of Seychelles coast. Great pick for family-friendly island escapes and private-pool villa stays.

Think intimate, romantic retreat vibes and a focus on rejuvenation. Villas come with private pools, balconies or terraces, living and dining areas, and air-conditioning. Two-bedroom double pool villas feature two master suites and two private pools for extra privacy.

Swim in outdoor and private villa pools, unwind in a full-service spa, sauna or massage room, and hit the gym or tennis court. Water-sports, a diving club, fishing and hiking keep the adventurous busy. On-site extras include a library, barbecue area, children's playground, tour desk, 24-hour reception, parking and laundry services.

Meeting rooms are available and the property offers reliable wireless internet throughout. 24-hour reception and concierge support make work trips smoother.

There’s an on-site restaurant serving local flavors, a bar for sunset cocktails and a café for quick pick-me-ups. Room service is available for late-night bites or private meals on your terrace.
