Vacations In Luxury Resorts In Seychelles

More than one hundred islands and islets make up Seychelles, yet the total land area is only 175 square miles! There are many people who think this country is located "a million miles" away from the "civilized world", being virtually unreachable. In reality, these stunning islands are very accessible to voyagers looking for luxury vacations in exotic beach resorts and upscale hotels.

The population is close to 70,000 people and is composed by French, English, Indian, Chinese and Africans. 90% of people live on Mahe Island, the largest in archipelago, with Victoria as capital city and home to an international airport and a deep-water harbor. Most hotels in Mahe offering vacation packages to Seychelles are located also on coastline. Even so, the seashore is not crowded because there are over 68 beaches and coves.

Luxury Hotels In Seychelles Islands

Beaches in Seychelles have been chosen several times as the most beautiful in the world! Particularly magnificent are Anse Soleil, the stunning crescent-shaped Port Launay Beach and the very popular Beau Vallon.

Praslin is the second largest island and home to one of the most beautiful beaches in Seychelles, Anse Lazio. Situated just 24 miles northeast to Mahe, Praslin is one of the main destinations for vacations in Seychelles, and as a result there are settled some of the best rated hotels in the country. This island is home to the UNESCO World heritage Site "e;Valle de Mai"e;, one of the few places on Earth where grows the famous "e;Coco-de-mer"e; palm.

Because this country occupies a huge area, the most convenient way to travel is by airplane and most flights between islands are scheduled to coordinate with transatlantic flights. Also, boats and ferries link the main islands and consequently customized tours of the islands are easy accessible to all people taking delight in vacations in Seychelles.
