Cheval Blanc Seychelles

Mahé, Seychelles

A hidden haven in the middle of the Indian Ocean offering fifty-two villas nestled between the lush jungle and the turquoise water.

Property Overview

Nestled in the heart of Anse Intendance, on the southwest coast of Mahé, the sixth Cheval Blanc Maison stands out for the beauty of its location, where the Indian Ocean meets the lush jungle of the Seychelles. Designed by Jean-Michel Gathy, the Maison combines contemporary architecture and local inspiration through fifty-two villas. The architect conceived the Maison blending locally inspired architecture with contemporary elegance, including twenty-four beachfront villas, with the others nestled in the hills overlooking the sea, all offering spectacular panoramic views and featuring private pools.

An expert team of artisans embodies the Cheval Blanc Art of Recevoir, crafting bespoke experiences that capture the richness of island life. From ocean adventures and hikes to discover the island's beauty to Guerlain well-being rituals at the Cheval Blanc Spa, every moment is meticulously planned with care and creativity. The five restaurants invite guests on a refined culinary journey, from the Mediterranean and Creole spirit of the Sula Beach Bar to the vibrant flavors of Vivamento, the Italian restaurant, the Japanese art of Mizumi, and the sophisticated French gastronomy at Le 1947. Enriched by the artworks of Prune Nourry, Joël Andrianomearisoa, and Maximilien Pellet, Cheval Blanc Seychelles celebrates the dialogue between art and nature, an unforgettable escape where craftsmanship, emotion, and beauty converge.

Accommodations

An ode to Creole traditions and a tribute to nature.

Curled up on the beach or perched on the hillside, fifty-two villas have been imagined by architect Jean-Michel Gathy as an ode to Creole traditions and a tribute to nature. And out of sight, on the beach facing the turquoise horizon, a five-bedroom exclusive villa embodies the quintessence of Cheval Blanc Art de Recevoir.
Pool + Gym

Designed for every rhythm of the stay.

Cheval Blanc Seychelles features a thoughtful collection of pools designed for every rhythm of the stay. There's the main infinity pool, sitting in front of Vivamento, the Italian restaurant, overlooking Anse Intendance and serving as the social heart of the Maison, and just below, on the Vivamento deck, a more intimate pool offering a quieter setting with the same ocean backdrop.

Families are welcomed at Le Carrousel, where a dedicated children’s pool allows younger guests to enjoy the water in a relaxed, supervised environment. For moments of deep relaxation, the Spa pool provides a serene retreat, seamlessly integrated into the wellness experience. Completing the journey, each of the fifty-two villas is complemented by its own private pool, ensuring absolute privacy and uninterrupted immersion in the island landscape.

Set amidst an island of pure bliss, this pristine retreat offers a wealth of wellness and sports experiences, including a fitness studio, lap pool, tennis and padel courts, as well as a surf simulator.
