Introducing Cheval Blanc Seychelles – A New Chapter of Ultra-Luxury in the Indian Ocean

The Art of French Living Lands on the Shores of Seychelles

A new name in ultra-luxury island travel has just arrived—one that blends timeless French Art de Recevoir with the wild soul of the Indian Ocean. Welcome to Cheval Blanc Seychelles, a sanctuary where nature, architecture, and fine living meet in perfect harmony.

Nestled in Anse Intendance on Mahé Island, one of Seychelles’ most untouched southern bays, this is LVMH’s sixth Maison, and its first in Africa. With just 52 villas cocooned between lush tropical jungle and white sand, it is already setting a new standard for understated elegance in the region.

🌿 An Untamed Paradise, Thoughtfully Refined

The bay of Anse Intendance has long been known for its raw beauty—dramatic granite boulders, soft white sand, and turquoise waters. Now, it’s home to a new kind of barefoot luxury, where Cheval Blanc’s impeccable service and French savoir-faire blend seamlessly with Creole authenticity and wild nature.

The architecture and interiors, designed by Jean-Michel Gathy, reflect this balance: clean-lined, soft-toned villas filled with light, local art, and custom furniture made to embrace the elements outside. Your villa feels more like a modern-day retreat than a hotel—a peaceful hideaway where every sunrise and sunset is framed by greenery and sea.

🛌 The Villas: Intimate, Serene, Spectacular

Each of the 52 villas—from one-bedroom beachfront residences to larger multi-room escapes—offers:

  • A private pool overlooking either the sea or lush hillsides

  • Indoor-outdoor living spaces with expansive decks and lounge areas

  • A Majordome (villa host) to take care of every personalized detail

  • Thoughtful touches from signature Cheval Blanc scenting and amenities to curated book selections

Some villas offer direct access to the beach, while others are perched hillside for cinematic views—ideal for both couples and families seeking total serenity.

🍽 A Culinary Ode to Island Living

Cheval Blanc Seychelles celebrates local Creole flavors through a refined French lens. Expect gastronomic variety across four unique dining concepts:

  • Sula – where Mediterranean and Creole inspirations meet

  • Le 1947 – Cheval Blanc’s signature fine dining experience with island-inflected tasting menus

  • Poolside and beachside dining for light, beautifully plated meals throughout the day

  • Tailored private dining in-villa, on the sand, or wherever the moment calls

A dedicated pastry chef and sommelier ensure that every bite—and every pour—is memorable.

🌊 The Experiences: More Than Just a Stay

Cheval Blanc Seychelles offers a curated range of island and ocean experiences:

  • Snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters of Intendance Bay

  • Guided hikes through Mahé’s rainforest interior

  • Sunset yoga, beach cinema nights, and stargazing

  • Visits to local markets and artists' workshops

  • Day trips to nearby islands, such as La Digue and Praslin

The Cheval Blanc Spa by Guerlain is a retreat within a retreat—featuring open-air treatment pavilions, exclusive rituals, and a deep connection to the healing nature of the Seychelles.

🧒 Families Welcome, Too

The Maison is fully family-friendly, with a dedicated Carrousel Kids Club, child-friendly menus, bespoke excursions, and thoughtful amenities for little guests. There’s even a Le Paddock Teen Club for older children and teenagers to connect and explore in their own style.

✨ Who Is It Perfect For?

  • Honeymooners and couples looking for elegant privacy and soulful romance

  • Families who want meaningful together time in nature without sacrificing luxury

  • Repeat Seychelles travelers seeking something fresh, design-forward, and intimate

  • Lovers of Cheval Blanc Paris, Courchevel, or Randheli, ready for a new kind of Maison

📍 How to Get There:
Fly into Mahé International Airport (SEZ). The resort is about 40 minutes by car along a scenic coastal road, ending in what feels like another world.

This is not just a new resort—it’s the arrival of something timeless and essential in the Indian Ocean: Cheval Blanc’s poetic vision of island life, where every detail is created for beauty, peace, and emotional connection.

Ready to plan your first stay at Cheval Blanc Seychelles? I’d love to help you be among the first to experience this Maison in paradise.

Warmly,
