Four Seasons, Seychelles

The Four Seasons Resorts are a famous global institution, and bring their wealth of experience from around the world to their resort in the Seychelles.

Situated on a remote hillside on the Seychelles' main island of Mahé, the resort fuses the latest in modern luxury amenities with traditional local architecture in its 67 villas that emerge from the jungle foliage.

Some of the modern comforts include private plunge pools, hot tubs and flat-screen TVs, which are standard in each villa.

A plethora of communal luxuries are available too - including a gym, spa and infinity pool.

Cuisine also plays an important role at the Four Seasons, with the Seychelles' location and history influencing a fusion Creole cuisine from its African, Asian and French colonial roots. Two restaurants and two lounges offer fine Seychellois dining, along with cocktails and some more familiar Western dishes.
