10 Best Luxury hotels in the Seychelles

Anantara Maia Seychelles Villas

9.8 Exceptional

2.1 km to Anse Louis Beach • 5.4 km to Seychelles National Botanical Gardens

Staying at Anantara Maia feels like discovering my own secluded slice of paradise. Each villa comes with a private infinity pool, outdoor sunken bath, and 24/7 dedicated villa host who somehow always knows what you need before you ask. The setting is wild and lush, perched on a hillside overlooking the ocean, with interiors that blur the line between inside and out. What truly stood out was the “Beyond All Inclusive” concept — no menus, just chef-curated dishes based on your preferences.

Denis Private Island

10 Exceptional

0.1 km to Denis Island Lagoon • 0.4 km to Denis Island Nature Trails

Denis Island is like stepping into a different world — one where time moves slower and the Wi-Fi doesn’t follow you. There’s no mobile signal, but that’s the point. The beachfront cottages open straight onto powdery sand, and everything from the meals to the handmade furniture felt authentic and personal. What makes this place different is its genuine sustainability efforts, from solar power to a thriving farm-to-table setup right on the island.

Kempinski Seychelles Resort

8.8 Excellent

0.3 km to Baie Lazare Beach • 1.0 km to Morne Seychellois National Park

Kempinski on Baie Lazare provides a perfect balance of grandeur and barefoot beach charm. The highlight? A hilltop spa with panoramic views that made my massage feel like floating above the island. The rooms are spacious, but it’s the giant Olympic-length pool and on-site dive center that really elevate the experience. I loved the easy access to snorkeling straight from the shore.

STORY Seychelles

9.0 Wonderful

0.3 km to Beau Vallon Beach • 1.0 km to Victoria Botanical Gardens

The STORY Seychelles feels effortlessly stylish — the kind of place where you wake up with the sea right outside your door and end your day sipping cocktails under string lights by the beach. The beachfront pool villas are a dream, and the food at Trader Vic’s (complete with a live band) makes every dinner feel like a celebration. What stands out is the genuine warmth of the welcome.

#5 for Luxury in the Seychelles

Constance Lémuria

9.6 Exceptional

1.2 km to Anse Georgette • 2.7 km to Curieuse Marine National Park

Constance Lémuria is what you’d imagine a luxury postcard would feel like if you could walk into it. The highlight? The 18-hole championship golf course — the only one in the Seychelles — winding through jungle and cliffside, with views so distracting it’s hard to keep your eye on the ball. The suites are tucked into the foliage, and the three beaches, especially Anse Georgette, feel wildly untouched.

#6 for Luxury in the Seychelles

laïla, Seychelles, a Marriott Tribute Portfolio Resort

9.4 Exceptional

0.5 km to Anse Royale Beach • 1.1 km to Victoria Botanical Gardens

Laïla feels like an upbeat, boutique escape with an island-modern vibe. The rooftop bar is a great spot to watch the sunset with a lemongrass mojito in hand. Interiors mix local craftsmanship with bold design — bright, breezy, and far from cookie-cutter. It’s one of the few hotels that encourages you to really get into the community vibe, with activities like Creole cooking sessions and guided village walks.

Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa

9.2 Wonderful

0.6 km to Silhouette National Park Trails • 2.2 km to Grand Barbe Beach

Set on the wild and mountainous Silhouette Island, Hilton Labriz gives a serious “castaway in luxury” energy. You arrive by boat, and the resort is the only developed part of the island — everything else is thick rainforest and towering peaks. You can spent hours exploring jungle trails and diving pristine reefs. The beachfront villas come with their own bicycles, which made the island feel like home.

Raffles Seychelles

9.4 Exceptional

0.1 km to Anse Takamaka Beach • 1.5 km to Vallee de Mai Nature Reserve

Raffles on Praslin delivers some of the most cinematic views ever had from a bathtub — perched high above the sea with floor-to-ceiling glass. The villas are huge and utterly private, with plunge pools you won’t want to leave. The spa is something else — cliffside, open to the breeze, and deeply relaxing. Their approach to personal service feels more like a gentle friendship than formal hospitality.

#9 for Luxury in the Seychelles

Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island

10 Exceptional

0.7 km to Desroches Island Lighthouse • 1.6 km to Madame Zabre Beach

Desroches is remote, and that’s its charm. The flight from Mahé feels like the prelude to something special — and it is. They can supply you’re own bike to explore the island, from deserted beaches to coconut groves, and a “castaway picnic”, it feels straight out of a movie. The resort is intentionally spread out so even when it’s full, it feels like you’re the only guest.

#10 for Luxury in the Seychelles

JA Enchanted Island Resort Seychelles

9.2 Wonderful

1.9 km to Sainte Anne Marine National Park • 5.6 km to Moyenne Island National Park

This adults-only hideaway sits on its own private islet off Mahé, and the boat ride there is the perfect start. Each villa is its own mini-retreat with a pool, gazebo, and steps leading straight into the ocean. You will adore the sense of total privacy — with barely another soul about. Their overwater spa and fresh-caught seafood dinners made it feel like a secret haven just for two.
