Kempinski Seychelles Resort Baie Lazare, Mahe Island, Seychelles

Described by early settlers as ‘the original Garden of Eden’, the Seychelles archipelago is without a doubt the jewel of the Indian Ocean and a leading luxury destination for discerning travelers. Located on the famous Baie Lazare, in the exclusive south-end of Mahé Island, Kempinski Seychelles Resort offers guests round-the-clock expertise, dedication and unmatched Creole hospitality. Set in dazzling surroundings of untouched, natural beauty this beachfront paradise, nestled in a secluded bay at the foothills of a magnificent mountain range, offers a private haven for romantics at heart, an activity-packed family getaway or the perfect destination for corporate gatherings and events.

Just 30 minutes from the Seychelles International Airport, this unique property makes an idyllic base from which to explore the rest of the island, yet offers much in the way of exclusivity and privacy for those looking to get off the tourist track. A selection of private rooms and suites set in expansive tropical grounds, have been designed to blend harmoniously with the natural environment; and refined to reflect 120 years of Kempinski service excellence.

A passion for food, produce and premium beverages is similarly an ear-mark of the Kempinski brand and is evidenced by the attention to detail and culinary fineness at all four of the resort’s dining outlets. Their uncompromising search for authentic recipes and quality local ingredients means guests are able to enjoy a wide variety of regional and international cuisines in an array of atmospheres, ranging from beachside casual to fine dining elegance.

For a truly memorable and intimate evening, be sure to book a bespoke private dinner: host an elegant dinner party or arrange a romantic, candle-lit dinner for two beside a palm-lined pristine beach or on the placid shores of the resort’s private lagoon.

For travellers in search of pure luxury and pampering, Kempinski, The Spa offers sumptuous treatments in a serene environment, using only organic and natural products inspired by the change of European seasons.
