RESORT CONCEPT:
A spa on the rocks – treatment suites sets on massive boulders emerging from the forest. Scuba diving excursions in the Indian Ocean . Traditional Seychelles cuisine in stylish restaurants. Five-star luxury in an awe-inspiring setting.
A marine national park, Silhouette is home to a huge diversity of indigenous fauna and flora. Rare species on the island include the incense tree and sheaf tailed bat.
