North Island
North Island, Seychelles
An exclusive and contemporary tropical hideaway offering the best in barefoot luxury.
North Island is one of the forty inner granite islands of the Seychelles that are located around the two main islands of Mahe and Praslin. The island was previously uninhabited and, due to its large diversity of habitats and ample fresh water, is ideal for the ‘Noah’s Ark Concept’. The plan for North Island is to turn back the island’s environmental clock two hundred years through rehabilitation and by re-introducing many of the critically endangered Seychelles species slowly over time. In the same way, North Island will prove to be a sanctuary for guests who seek an unspoiled tropical haven of peace and tranquillity. With its four beaches located at each point of the compass, the island is able to ensure a year-round beach and island experience.
The extensive facilities include 11 incredible villas, each with their own private pool, a central dining room, lounge and library, a health spa located amongst the trees, and a beautiful swimming pool. There is also the romantic Sunset Bar tucked away on Grande Anse beach on the western side of the island.
Guests stay at North Island on a fully inclusive basis. This includes all meals, non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks (except premier drinks on the reserve list), visits to the research centre, sea kayaking around the island, snorkelling and scuba diving in and around North Island and Silhouette dives sites, hobie-sailing, nature walks, fly fishing on North Island (boat fishing trips are extra), the use of one ’North Island buggy’ and mountain bicycles.
