A must-visit for beach lovers, Raffles Praslin Seychelles is a charming little siren in the ocean, beckoning travelers to return again and again.
Paradise may just be a concept of myth and lore, but travelers stubbornly seek it out anyhow. Arriving on the northern tip of Praslin in the Seychelles, lucky leisure lovers may find themselves thinking, "Jackpot."
Raffles Praslin, Seychelles hides calmly and quietly on a green hill facing the teal waters of the Indian Ocean. The resort includes 86 one- and two-bed villas, each with private plunge pool, barbecue, and patio. These private domiciles sit in Elysium-like surroundings, and are amongst the largest in the region. Enjoy a bath with a water view, an outdoor shower, or a lazy morning in your cozy bed with Nespresso you just brewed.
Stay in and tone up at the gym and spa, or venture out into the Vallée de Mai in search of the provocative coco de mer. Beaches include the Anse Takamaka, and the nearby Anse Lazio, hailed as one of the most flawless beaches on earth. 10-minutes on a boat with snorkel in-hand yields encounters with Giant Tortoises at Curieuse, an apt name indeed.
You'll need fuel for your adventures, and Raffles Praslin, Seychelles has your best interests at heart. Losean serves Creole treats all day, while the adjoining deli serves up preserves, breads, meats, and chutneys.
Paradise found? You be the judge.
