The Seychelles can broadly be divided into the two main islands; Mahe and Praslin, but the main beauty of the archipelago can be found in the separate private island experiences which it is so famed for. Mahe and Praslin have some great beaches, and some not-so-good ones! The best beaches are unfortunately public and not tied to a specific hotel, which is a shame. Mostly, there are big all-inclusive hotels, but there are a few boutique hotels. The problems with these is that they are fairly expensive for what you actually get.
The best hotels in Seychelles
We think you get an awful lot more for your money on the various private islands, rather than the main islands of Mahe and Praslin. The private islands epitomise the Indian Ocean ideal which has long been associated with the Seychelles. If money is no object, then it absolutely has to be North Island which is heralded as undoubtedly one of the very finest private island experiences in the world. It is around $2,700 per person per night.
If you are more budget conscious, but don’t mind splashing out a bit on an extremely special beach experience then there are a variety of reasonably prices other private islands which offer an exceptional experience. Our pick of these is Dennis Island which is $,400 per person per night.
Seychelles luxury hotels
When it comes to The Seychelles, unless you have pockets deep enough to afford the little private islands and the luxury which this brings, then you are better to set your sights on other Indian Ocean havens which are more accessible, and with less inflated prices. Otherwise you simply don’t get much for your money!

North Island Seychelles - Other Islands
We have just returned from a family holiday in the Seychelles, and wow, it was an Easter to remember! Our extraordinary time on North Island with our children, 7 and 9, will be forever treasured… snorkelling together to find turtles and sharks among the myriad other coloured fish beneath us, buggying between one incredible deserted beach and the next, it was a magnificent family holiday. Best of all, the staff who whisked the children away to have more fun without us… leaving us to enjoy sundowners, siestas and utter peace in serious style. You organised seamless, wildly fun helicopter transfers, and we had the ultimate desert island dream!
