North Island, The Seychelles

North Island

A private island retreat made for total seclusion

Superbly luxurious and delightfully informal

We think it’s fair to say that there’s nowhere quite like North Island and its hotel. The hotel itself is the custodian of island, so the experience here is exclusive and just for those stay at this stunning property. Tall green swaying palm trees and flour-sifted sands stretch down to the warm, turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.

You will feel totally remote and immersed in nature during your time here, with your days filled with the sounds and sights of the Seychelles‘ birds and vibrant coral. You can go diving, fishing and kayaking, along with swimming and snorkelling. There’s also a small population of giant tortoises to observe as they slowly meander their island. North Island is known for its sustainability efforts and admirable drive to conserve and reintroduce many of its species. Stay in sumptuous private, palapa-style villas, and enjoy elegant areas around the island for relaxing and dining. There’s a wine cellar, library, boutique and delectable cuisine to sample.

Places to combine North Island with

Positive Impact

The Kruger

Tanda Tula Safari Camp

Tanda Tula, which translates to "love the quiet," draws its inspiration from the captivating blend of people and abundant wildlife in the Greater Kruger National Park region. With a legacy spanning over 30 years, this safari accommodation has earned its reputation as one of South Africa's premier camps.

Serengeti National Park

Wilderness Usawa Camp

Deep in the Serengeti National Park is where you'll find Wilderness Usawa Camp, a mobile camp that follows the wildebeest migration.

Positive Impact

Mara Conservancies

Angama Mara

Towering high on the Rift Valley’s Oloololo Escarpment with direct and private access to the Mara Triangle, this lodge's name was inspired by the Swahili word for ‘suspended in mid-air’. It's not only its location that makes it stand out, but also its commitment to education, health and conservation in the region.

Positive Impact

Lake Manyara

Chem Chem Lodge

Chem Chem Lodge is located in its own 4,000-acre conservation-focused concession between Lake Manyara and Tarangire National Parks.

Eight luxury tented suites are widely spaced to ensure absolute privacy, sat on the edge of a palm island overlooking Lake Manyara waters. One is a family suite with two bedrooms.

In centre is the main lodge, shaped to reflects the form of a flamingo with its wings spread, which includes a dining room, lounge, library, viewing tower, swimming pool, spa, sundeck and its own spectacular view over Lake Manyara.

Expect a very personalised service, and a focus on ‘slow safari’ where you enjoy the wildlife, culture, landscapes of the reserve and national parks at a relaxed and unhurried pace, to really savour and make the most of it.
