Kempinski Seychelles Resort break

Kempinski Seychelles Resort

Our rating: First Class

Rooms

The resort has 148 rooms and suites dotted around the grounds in low buildings that blend seamlessly with the leafy surroundings. Ground-floor rooms typically have views of the lagoon, hillside and gardens. Those on the upper floor provide sea views. The tropical decor is clean and modern, with white walls that contrast with dark wood furniture, and pops of jewel tones that reflect the flora you can see outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

All rooms have a private balcony or terrace, seating area, minibar and complimentary Wi-Fi. The suites offer more space and include a separate lounge and dining area.

Location

Situated on the southwest coast, just a 40-minute drive from the international airport, the Kempinski Resort is easy to reach and conveniently located to explore Mahé and the rest of the archipelago. The hotel also has direct access onto the long sandy beach of Baie Lazare.
