Signature experiences

Exclusive on-site programmes that define this property's character, beyond the room key.

  • Breakfast overlooking the lagoon

    Beginning the day on a terrace overlooking the marine park immediately sets the tone of the stay. Morning light, calm water and an unhurried rhythm give breakfast an almost ceremonial quality. It is one of those simple moments that best captures the spirit of a private island in the Seychelles.

    IncontournableIncluded in your stay
  • Boat outing in Sainte Anne Marine Park

    Exploring the waters around the island reveals the intimate geography of the setting: granite islets, shifting shades of blue, the outline of Mahé in the distance and the clarity of the lagoon. The outing adds depth to the stay by showing the Seychelles from the sea, which remains the truest vantage point here.

    Reservation required
  • Snorkelling in the clear waters of the marine park

    In this protected part of the archipelago, the sea is not merely a backdrop. A snorkelling session allows guests to enter the landscape, observe marine life and experience the distinctive softness of Seychellois waters. It suits both active travellers and those who simply wish to deepen their connection with the lagoon.

    Reservation required
  • Post-sea massage ritual

    After a swim or a boat excursion, a wellness treatment takes on a particular resonance. The body is already softened by water, warmth and the island’s slower pace; the massage extends that state rather than creating it artificially. An ideal experience for deepening the sense of disconnection sought in the Seychelles.

    Bien-êtreReservation required
  • Sunset on the private island

    At day’s end, the light alters the reading of the landscape: the rocks warm in tone, the sea deepens and neighbouring islands become almost graphic in outline. Settling in for this moment, with a drink or simply in silence, is one of the truest pleasures of the stay. Few experiences express the serenity of the place so well.

    Included in your stay
  • Intimate dinner by the water

    On a private island, dinner can become far more than a meal: a suspended moment shaped by the evening breeze, the soft sound of the sea and the feeling of being apart from the world. It is especially suited to couples and understated celebrations, when one seeks not spectacle but the rightness of the moment.
