North island features ten elegant yet relaxed presidential villas, set along the East beach and with direct access to your very own 450 sqm beach and ocean. Each villa is completely screened from view by careful siting in harmony with the natural vegetation, ensuring total privacy as well as ocean views. The open-plan flow of the villas invites exploration. Each presidential villa offers total privacy, generous space, and your own exclusive tranche of the luminous white sands and turquoise waters of the East beach.
Villa North Island is perched on the granite boulders at the far end of East Beach and is the quintessence of privacy and seclusion. The sheer volume, scale, and luxury of this villa are unimaginably decadent as it spreads out across multi-tiered levels, cascading down through a coconut grove, with direct beach access to the ocean below. At 750sqm, Villa North Island offers ample room for your mind to float free and for all your island fantasies to become a stylish, spacious reality. From the surprise of the concealed entrance across a leadwood bridge to the wooden waterfall of decks descending to the beach, Villa North Island offers the perfect setting for your honeymoon.

Situated where the ocean meets the Island, the food offering in the Piazza draws on the freshest ingredients from both land and sea to give guests a sumptuous dining experience. The chefs give free rein to their imaginations as they are inspired by the seasons and flavours of Seychelles and the world beyond. A favourite dish is squid ink linguini with lobster, freshly caught red snapper, langoustines and local octopus – perfect with a cold glass of fruity Chardonnay.
The in-villa dining experience is all about comfort food and options. Enjoy the wide variety of snacks in your generously-stocked pantry or choose from the home-style menu, with a local Creole curry or classic dish of your choice, delivered to your door while you relax in the privacy of your own villa. North Island has taken the theme of comfort food and added a typically irreverent twist – think childhood classics reworked to refresh your palette; dishes you know and love made just that little bit more fun.
Sunset Beach Bar serves up fresh hot pizza, salads and tapas-style barbecue snacks, all perfect for sharing as you watch the sunset, lingering over a cocktail and relaxed music. Kick off your shoes and let the sand run between your toes – you’ve discovered the “rough” side of North Island, the perfect counterpoint to the Piazza Bar & Lounge experience, and an evening you will want to enjoy at leisure.
Enjoy champagne and canapés over a bonfire while watching the sun set from the rugged beauty of The Cross at the base of Spa Hill, a light lunch on the edge of the main swimming pool, a candlelit dinner under the stars on the Helipad, a family-style barbeque in your villa with your private chef, a Créole dinner in the historic Library, or a private wine tasting with the sommelier in the cellar… Your bespoke dining experience can be enjoyed anywhere on the Island.
North Island boasts many locations for the perfect beach picnic – choose from any of the four pristine, powder-white beaches. For the ultimate privacy, book Honeymoon Beach and you can call this gorgeous beach your own for the day. ‘The Picnic Spot’, located on West Beach, is also available on an exclusive basis. Swim, snorkel and soak up the Seychelles’ sun. The chefs will tailor-make the perfect picnic basket to suit your taste buds.
Nestled in the lush tropical vegetation and overlooking dramatic cliffs and the ocean’s calming waters, the La Vie spa by Goldhands is a space that evokes recuperation. In this timeless place, surrounded by unspoiled beauty, you can indulge in several rejuvenating treatments that will nourish your body, mind, and soul. Or enjoy one in the privacy of your villa.
Spa
The North Island Spa, La Vie by Goldhands is located in inspiring surroundings, overlooking turquoise waters and dramatic cliffs. It offers an unspoiled place of extreme beauty and timelessness where treatments relax and rejuvenate body, mind and soul.
Yoga
Begin each day on North Island with our all-inclusive morning yoga sessions to relax and revitalise both body and soul. Catering to yoga novices and addicts alike, trained instructors quietly assess your level of expertise and adjust the pace of the class accordingly.
Gym
Located just below the Spa is the Gym, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that frame some of the most spectacular views on the island. The 10 x 6-metre air-conditioned indoor area is well equipped with Technogym machines and weights.
Infinity Pool
North Island’s 45-metre main swimming pool was created for many but is most often enjoyed only by two. All 11 villas feature their own plunge pool, but it’s worth venturing out to experience the main pool’s architectural beauty.

North Island is a wonderful place to explore and enjoy as a family and is the ultimate playground for your children, with a wide range of activities on land and in the water designed to keep young minds and bodies active, to satisfy the most inquisitive and thrill the most adventure-seeking. North Island has a children’s play area with an arts and crafts area, jungle gym, swings, trampoline and toys galore. All activities are supervised to ensure your children will be well looked after and entirely safe – and of course adults are welcome to join in too!
The waters off North Island offer excellent chances of a good catch, followed by a delicious meal – and nothing tastes better than your own fresh-caught sushi or chargrilled tuna steak! The Equatorial waters off Seychelles offer some of the best fishing in the world, and there are few pleasures as completely satisfying as hearing the whirr of line out of your reel as your quarry takes off.
For a more challenging marine workout, check out a paddle board from the dive centre and adopt a more balanced approach to life, in the warm waters off East Beach. There is nothing quite like the view of North Island when you are standing on the sea – and the sure knowledge that just a short paddle away is a refreshing fruit smoothie, crisp glass of white wine, or a restorative North Island club sandwich!
Housed in a historic coral building near the Piazza, North Island’s Dive Centre offers full PADI tuition and certification. Expert Seychellois divemasters with intimate knowledge of the local reefs and the very best dive spots, plus state of the art SCUBA equipment, make for a memorable dive experience. The dive centre features indoor and outdoor changing areas and showers, displays about the natural history of the waters off the island, and a typically warm North Island welcome from dive master Daniel and his team.
Cruise around North Island to explore North Island's private shores from the sea, and drop anchor as the sun begins to dip below the horizon. The best way for guests to enjoy the tranquil waters of the Indian Ocean is with a champagne flute in hand. In the other, you will find mouth-watering canapés to whet your appetite for dinner upon your return. If luck is on your side, you might see dolphins dancing in the wake of the boat. Or witness a ‘flock’ of flying fish aflutter as you pass them by. A romantic experience for you and your partner or a special memory as a family.

Accompany one of the guides for the stroll up Spa Hill to the best views of North Island, learning along the way about the Noah’s Ark Island rehabilitation programme, the indigenous wildlife of Seychelles, and maybe meeting a tortoise or two. The guides will reveal the fascinating history of North Island, they may even share one or two of the Island’s secrets with you – Seychelles after all is believed to be home to vast troves of undiscovered pirate treasure, plundered in the country’s lawless past.
