Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa

The Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa is nestled in the secluded hillsides of Beau Vallon Bay on Mahe, looking out over the turquoise Indian Ocean.

The gorgeous villas are elevated on stilts on the hillside, ensuring panoramic views across the coastline, or on the oceanfront, offering uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean. The luxurious and characterful wood-clad villas come with a dash of local Seychellois colour, and have four-poster beds, vibrant original art and generous bathrooms with rainfall showers and whirlpool baths, alongside large terraces where you can relax and take in the views.

For those seeking additional space and luxury, some villas have additional bedrooms and their own private pools.

Dining here is a real treat - the signature restaurant serves up delicious a la carte meals inspired by flavoursome Creole cuisine, complete with live cooking stations and a terrace showcasing the beautiful ocean views. If romance is in the air, celebrate in style with a special candlelit dinner on your private terrace.

Enjoy fresh tropical juices and irresistible cocktails by the sea, accompanied by live music courtesy of local musicians.

There's a lovely freeform infinity pool, surrounded by tropical greenery and looking out over the ocean, a fitness centre, yoga, and a spa whose pampering treatments will ease all your tensions away: if you've had too much sun, go for the soothing aloe vera wrap.

Relax on the white sands, or cool off in the crystal-clear waters - the pretty cove below the bar is a lovely spot for a swim. Take advantage of complimentary water sports and snorkel right from the beach, or head out in a kayak. Experience a glass-bottomed boat tour or hop over to one of the other islands, and end the day in style with a champagne sunset cruise.
