There are only 11 handcrafted guest villas on the entire island, each constructed to combine to create a sensorial experience in surroundings of understated elegance. They are very spacious at 450sq.m, allowing plenty of room.

Each villa has two bedrooms, the second of which could be a study or a room for children, is completely self-contained and is raised a metre off the ground to capture the cooling island breezes.

Each Villa has two bedrooms, a main bedroom and a second bedroom. Whilst the Villa is primarily occupied by one or two guests, they may have a requirement to use the second bedroom for children nineteen years and younger and this is available at an additional cost. Alternatively, the second bedroom can be converted into a
study for guests staying in the master bedroom.

Villa 11 is
completely unique in it’s siting. Villa 11’s layout has been designed to accommodate the incline along the extreme
northern side of the Anse d'est Beach and is secretly tucked away in the Takamaka forest. The beach views from this Villa are truly spectacular from every angle and it is this, together with the unique manipulation of the design,
which separates this remarkable Villa from the rest. Villa 11 is referred to as Villa North Island.

The cuisine of North Island is based on the diversity and cultural influences which, in part, make up the Seychellois
Creole flavour. Culinary aspects of Seychelles, France and southern Indian spices are combined with the organic
resources of North Island and the abundance on offer from the Indian Ocean. Balanced together with simplicity,
expect a feast that will awaken all of your senses.

There is a “no menu” concept of dining on North Island and the chef, David Godin, speaks to each guest, explains
the North Island cuisine concept, finds out personal food preferences and then develops the menus daily around
this information.
You are promised a memorable culinary experience, complimented by an impressive cellar with some of the
world’s great wines and champagnes.
Please let us know well in advance of any special dietary requirements.

Island and its nearest neighbour Silhouette Island. We offer a "guided" scuba experience and our

universe. PADI Open Water dive courses are offered while on the island. The Dive Centre is fully

not bring their own hard or soft gear.
