La Réserve Seychelles

THE ORIGINAL GUIDED SAFARIS® LUXURY SAFARI LODGES • SEYCHELLES

Signature Guided Safaris®

La Réserve Seychelles

La Réserve Seychelles is a collection of private villas on Praslin, set in a tropical garden at the edge of a turquoise lagoon. Each villa comes with its own staff, and the island’s celebrated beaches, coral reefs and palm forests are all close at hand.

Anse Boudin

Anse Boudin

Anse Boudin lies on the north coast of Praslin, a 15-minute flight from Mahé, looking across a narrow channel to Curieuse Island. Here La Réserve keeps just 6 villas, each sleeping 6 to 12 guests in complete privacy. Your private chef plans the day’s menus around fish caught that morning, produce from the island market and herbs from the garden, and serves them wherever you like, on the veranda, by the pool or as a picnic on a quiet beach.

La Réserve Villas

Deep verandas, a private pool and a tropical garden of flowers and fruit trees open the house to the outdoors, and a sandy path leads down to the beach. Inside, stone walls, warm timber and woven textures set an easy island tone. The villas range from 7,481ft² to 9,472ft² indoors and out, and each has a fully equipped kitchen.

A dedicated team looks after every house, with a private chef, a butler and daily housekeeping, and a concierge plans boat days, dives and island excursions.

Diving the Seychelles

Diving the Seychelles

Just offshore, the reefs around Curieuse Island are protected as a marine national park. A PADI instructor can guide your first dive or take you on to your next certification, in coral gardens where Stingrays glide over the sand and Hawksbill Turtles come to feed. Back at the villa, snorkel, kayak or paddleboard straight from the beach, or head out on the private boat to fish in deeper water.

Explore Praslin

At its heart lies the Vallée de Mai, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where the coco de mer palm grows wild and the Black Parrot, the national bird of the Seychelles, calls through the canopy. Your guide leads the way through the valley and along trails such as the Glacis Noir, and Anse Lazio, often ranked among the world’s most beautiful beaches, is a short drive from the villas.

Island hopping opens up the rest of the archipelago. La Digue is 15 minutes away by boat, Curieuse is home to Aldabra Giant Tortoises, and Cousin Island is a protected sanctuary for Seabirds. Set out by private boat with your guide, fish along the way and step ashore on a secluded beach, where your chef has a picnic lunch waiting.
