Desroches Island, Seychelles

Four Seasons Resort Seychelles at Desroches Island

Set on a private island, 71 villas, each with its own garden and plunge pool, combine to create a Robinson Crusoe-style paradise. Three beaches stretch across 14km, each offering the ideal setting for activities like kayaking, diving, or surfing. All you need to explore them is one of the resort’s bicycles. Meanwhile, a turtle sanctuary and a haven for birdwatchers anchor your stay in the natural world. Both communal areas and private villas share a contemporary interpretation of the essence of the island, featuring woodwork, sheer curtains, and a palette of pale hues. The restaurants offer a culinary journey that journeys from Italy to Asia, while also celebrating local flavours. Yoga in all its forms forms the backbone of the resort’s approach to wellbeing, best practised facing the ocean in harmony with the four elements, in a true synthesis of the setting itself.

The moment

An Advanced Surfing session that gets wave devotees on the same wavelength.
