Dhevatara Beach, the charming boutique hotel crafted in tribute to Seychelles island living style, lies beside Grand Anse beach, on Praslin. This alluring hotel consists of ten intimate suites that are tastefully and individually decorated. The surrounding lush nature and its location just steps away from the beach complete the tropical vibe sensation. The hotel décor evokes the history of the Seychelles with its blend of African, Victorian and Indian ornamental styles, an ideal holiday retreat for couples and also for families with children ages 12 years and above.

A grand pool is tucked between the beach and the gardens and is the perfect place to soak up the sun or take in the panoramic views, including magnificent sunsets. The cuisine is a métissage of Mediterranean, Asian and Creole flavours, blended with home-grown spices, herbs and flowers – sourced from the hotel’s rooftop garden – creating delightfully nuanced flavours. During the balmy days of summer, you may dine barefoot in the sand on freshly barbecued fish and meat.

In the afternoon, unwind and recharge at the spa, which offers traditional Ayurveda, Thai and Balinese treatments. The more adventurous can borrow the canoes, bikes or snorkelling gear and discover the island’s natural beauty. The waves unfurl, a gentle salty breeze causes a rustle in the canopy of palms above your head… there is no doubt, Dhevatara Beach Hotel is a haven for those who are seeking peaceful contemplation.
