North Island Seychelles

North Island is a sanctuary, in harmony with nature, surrounded by warm tropical waters in colours of blue and aquamarine. A Noah’s Ark, where natural habitats have been rehabilitated and endangered Seychelles fauna and flora re-introduced, and given a place to regenerate

In the same way that North Island is a sanctuary for regeneration of the Seychelles endangered species, so is it for it’s guests – an unspoiled haven of peace and tranquility.

North Island is an 11 villa retreat offering extraordinary luxury in a carefully restored almost pristine state of nature. These Presidential Villas have been beautifully crafted from timber, local stone, glass and ylang ylang and stand alone in complete seclusion and privacy.

Located 15 miles north of Mahe, and just a 20 minute helicopter charter, the island was previously uninhabited for thirty years. North Island offers a unique “Robinson Crusoe barefoot luxury”. North Island owes its remote origins to geological times as the peak of a submerged mountain that once rose from the great proto continent Pangea . This island is no larger than 507 acres and boasts four secluded white sandy beaches and three magnificent granite mountains which dominate the island.

Nothing interrupts the feeling of serene solitude. Each villa is a sanctuary, a warm and inviting space in which to relax and enjoy the sense of ease and freedom.

North Island will go to every length to pamper you, enrich and rejuvenate the soul. However the essence of the island remains one of sustainability and ecologically sensitive utilization of a precious natural treasure.
