Raffles (Praslin)
At Raffles , guests are invited to unwind in an atmosphere of refined luxury, where sleek, modern facilities blend with exceptional, upscale accommodation. Every corner of the resort exhibits finesse, from the attentively designed villas and suites to the state-of-the-art amenities that ensure a stay of great comfort.
Nestled on the serene shores of Anse Takamaka, just moments from the world-renowned Source d’Argent, Raffles Seychelles is a sanctuary of refined elegance, where barefoot luxury meets unparalleled service. Set amongst lush tropical surrounds, this five-star oceanfront retreat is an ode to idyllic seclusion, offering a sense of escape that feels both indulgent and effortless.
Perched on the hillside, each of the 86 private villas is a masterpiece of understated opulence, featuring custom-crafted furnishings, premium amenities, and a private infinity pool overlooking the mesmerising Indian Ocean. A stay at Raffles Seychelles is nothing short of a culinary odyssey, with a selection of exemplary dining experiences that celebrate the island’s rich heritage. From the delicate artistry of Japanese cuisine to the bold, authentic flavours of Creole dishes, each plate is a masterpiece, crafted with locally sourced ingredients that honour the region’s natural bounty. Whether dining under the stars or indulging in a leisurely beachside breakfast, every meal is an occasion in itself.
For those seeking a deeper sense of relaxation, the award-winning Raffles Spa is an enclave of tranquillity, where bespoke treatments harness the power of ancient techniques and indigenous botanicals. From indulgent massages with ocean breezes as a soundtrack to revitalising facials that restore a radiant glow, each experience is designed to soothe the soul and invigorate the senses.
For the more adventurous, a full PADI dive centre invites guests to explore the vibrant marine life of the Seychelles, while a state-of-the-art 24-hour gym and private yoga sessions provide the perfect balance of movement and mindfulness. Meanwhile, younger guests can discover a world of wonder at the complimentary Sugar Palm Kids Club, offering a daily programme of engaging activities between 9 am and 5 pm.
But beyond the world-class service, exquisite dining, and serene spa rituals, what truly sets Raffles Seychelles apart is its dream-stealing views, the kind that imprint themselves on the heart, evoking memories of sun-drenched days, balmy nights, and a horizon that stretches infinitely. It is not just a place to stay, but a destination to savour, immerse in, and return to, time and time again.
Amanda Says:
Raffles Seychelles on Praslin has long been my definitive recommendation for an unparalleled luxury beach escape. Time and again, both my own experiences and glowing client feedback reaffirm its status as a resort that exceeds expectations at every turn. From impeccable service to world-class facilities and indulgent amenities, Raffles curates an atmosphere of effortless elegance, perched high on the hillside, offering breathtaking panoramas of the Indian Ocean.
Every detail is considered, striking the perfect balance between refinement and relaxation. Whether it’s the serenity of your private infinity pool (every villa has one), the gentle hush of the waves on the pristine Anse Takamaka, or the indulgence of the award-winning spa, this is a place where time slows, and luxury is second nature.
And let’s not forget the bathrooms—there are few greater luxuries than soaking in a deep bathtub at Raffles with panoramic sea views—a moment of pure escapism that lingers long after departure.
For those with a penchant for mixology, the Danzil Praslin Sling is not to be missed, a sophisticated blend of Raffles 1915 gin, kaffir lime, and La Digue vanilla, a subtle yet exquisite nod to both its legendary sister property and the iconic Singapore Sling.
Flawlessly combining barefoot luxury with the brand’s storied heritage, Raffles Seychelles is more than a stay, it’s an experience, a sanctuary, and without question, one of the finest beachfront retreats in the world.
