Description
Desroches Island Resort's suites and villas are stylishly designed with a cool, tropical feel. Fresh seafood and local produce from the island are served Creole style in the hotel’s two restaurants, including one where guests can enjoy a ‘feet in the sand’ lunch or a beach barbecue. Enjoy a massage treatment at the spa centre, on the beach under the palm trees or in the comfort of your own accommodation. An exciting new spa has just opened on the island.
Guests can explore the island on foot or by bike – the coconut grove, the northern lighthouse and the island village are waiting to be discovered, as are the many secret tracks that lead to secluded beaches. The resident conservation team offer guided informative nature walks around the island where guests can learn about the flora and fauna on the island.
Desroches offers excellent opportunities for diving, with 14 classified dive sites nearby, as well as deep sea fishing and some of the most challenging fly fishing in the Indian Ocean.
