Luxury Holidays to Seychelles
Remote. Refined. Remarkable.
The Seychelles is the definition of castaway luxury—an archipelago of granite peaks, sugar-white sands, and impossibly blue waters. It’s where seclusion and sophistication go hand in hand.
This Indian Ocean paradise offers more than postcard beauty. Each island has its own personality, from the cultural heart of Mahé to the barefoot exclusivity of North Island and the natural wonderland of Praslin. Private villas, reef-fringed beaches, and ocean-to-table dining await, all delivered with warm, intuitive service. Whether you’re seeking romance, adventure or pure stillness, the Seychelles delivers in style. Awake & Wander designs tailor-made escapes that pair luxury with ecology, indulgence with serenity. If you’ve ever dreamt of having paradise to yourself—this is where that dream becomes real.

Seamless Access to the Seychelles from the UK
Fly to the Seychelles with ease from the UK, with one-stop routes available via Doha, Dubai, Istanbul, or Paris to Seychelles International Airport (SEZ) on Mahé. Total travel time is typically around 12–14 hours, and we recommend pairing business or first-class flights with luxury lounge access for comfort. Awake & Wander arranges smooth transfers on arrival, including inter-island flights, helicopter connections, and private speedboats depending on your itinerary. Whether you’re staying on a private island or splitting time between resorts, every detail is handled with precision.
Seychelles Seasons: When Paradise Is Most Perfect
The Seychelles enjoys a warm, tropical climate year-round, with temperatures hovering between 26°C and 32°C. The best times to visit are April to May and September to November, when the weather is calm, skies are clear, and ocean visibility is excellent for snorkelling and diving. The northwest monsoon (November–March) brings lush greenery and occasional showers, often brief and followed by sunshine. June to August tends to be breezier and drier, ideal for hiking and cooler evenings. No matter the month, each season brings a unique charm—and with Awake & Wander, you’ll always be in the right place at the right time.
The Top 4 Unforgettable Experiences and Things to Do in Seychelles
Seclusion doesn’t mean simplicity. The Seychelles offers elegant experiences in pristine nature—tailored for those who seek both relaxation and rare discovery.
1
Stay on a Private Island in Total Seclusion
Some of the world’s most exclusive resorts await in the Seychelles, including North Island, Félicité, and Frégate. These private islands offer beachside villas with personal butlers, private chefs, and every modern luxury—with no crowds, no noise, and no schedule. Swim in complete privacy, dine under the stars, and fall asleep to nothing but ocean breeze and distant waves. Awake & Wander crafts bespoke stays where the entire island feels like your own.
2
Snorkel and Dive in Crystal-Clear Waters
The Seychelles is a dream destination for divers and snorkellers, with marine life that rivals the Maldives—but without the crowds. Protected areas like Sainte Anne Marine National Park, Baie Ternay, and Aride Island offer coral reefs teeming with sea turtles, reef sharks, eagle rays and tropical fish. Awake & Wander can arrange private dive boats or curated snorkelling safaris with marine biologists for a more educational edge. The calm, clear waters between April and November offer peak visibility.
3
Explore Vallée de Mai with a Naturalist Guide
On the island of Praslin, the Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve—a UNESCO World Heritage Site—is home to the legendary coco de mer palm and a wealth of rare flora and fauna. Walk among towering palms and prehistoric ferns with your own naturalist, learning about the island’s biodiversity and local legends. It’s a peaceful, shaded escape and a must for nature lovers. With a private guide, you can explore off-path corners and time your visit to avoid any groups.
4
Sunset Champagne Cruise Along the Coast
End the day in classic Seychelles style with a private catamaran or yacht charter, gliding along the coast as the sun dips below the horizon. Sip chilled champagne, savour chef-prepared canapés, and soak in panoramic views of granite cliffs, jungle peaks and empty beaches. Want more? Add live acoustic music, a private photographer, or extend into a starlit dinner on board. This experience can also be paired with dolphin spotting or snorkelling in hidden bays.
Why the Seychelles Is a Sanctuary for Luxury Travellers
The Seychelles isn’t just a destination—it’s an escape from the ordinary. Here, time slows, nature heals, and luxury finds a quieter rhythm. You can wake to birdsong instead of alarms, dine barefoot on the sand without compromising on refinement, and explore untouched corners of the Indian Ocean at your own pace. It’s not about show—it’s about serenity.
For couples, the Seychelles is one of the world’s most romantic destinations. For families, it offers freedom and safety with space to explore. And for solo travellers, it provides the rare chance to feel utterly at peace. Whether you dream of a multi-island adventure or a one-island retreat, Awake & Wander will craft your journey with care, elegance, and detail. Paradise doesn’t have to be imagined—it's here, waiting.
