North Island, Seychelles

Imagine a Robinson Crusoe luxury paradise like no other, where architects Silvio Reeb and Lesley Carstens have-created a private sanctuary for the environmentally-minded traveller on an island uninhabited for over 30 years. This is North Island - larger than Monte Carlo, yet with just 12 fabulous air-conditioned 450 square metres villas; a central dining room; lounge and library; health spa and gym; swimming pool hewn into a granite outcrop and the Sunset Bar on a white palm-fringed beach.  With its four beaches located at each end of the compass, the island is able to ensure a year-round wonderful tropical beach and island experience. The 12 villas are classed as Presidential, offering a luxuriously proportioned bedroom, en suite bathroom with Balinese marble bath, 'punkah punkah' fans, kitchen, sun-deck, lounge and dining room, DVD/CD system and private plunge pool.  All villas benefit from full butler services catering for every need.  Champagne picnic on the beach?  Consider it done.  Here in the Seychelles, - where tortoises outnumber the local inhabitants, this really is as pure as it gets.
