In the serene Southwest coast of Mahé, Mango House Seychelles, LXR Hotels & Resorts promises guests an unforgettable stay. Overlooking the sparkling waters of Anse Aux Poules Bleues, this intimate beachfront resort invites guests to unwind in one of the 41 elegantly appointed rooms and suites, each featuring sun-kissed balconies and distinctive décor.
Once the cherished home of one of the world’s most celebrated photographers, this unique and magnificent home has been thoughtfully transformed into a boutique-style resort. The original Italian style, beach-chic décor retains its character with vintage vinyl players, curated bookcases and nostalgic photographs, while the rest of the resort has been reimagined into a refined sanctuary complete with an exceptional collection of private villas, a series of delicious restaurants and bars, three inviting swimming pools and an exclusive secluded beach.
This journey to paradise begins on arrival at Seychelles International Airport on the main island of Mahé. As the plane descends, gaze out over the turquoise waters and take in the breathtaking collection of 115 tropical islands that are scattered across the Indian Ocean and make up this enchanting archipelago. As Mahé draws closer, spot more than 60 secluded beaches, untouched forests and dramatic mountain peaks draped in emerald green.
From the airport, a scenic 45-minute drive winds through the untamed beauty of Mahé’s southern coast and eventually the road opens to reveal Mango House Seychelles. Gracefully positioned along the tranquil shores of Anse Aux Poules Belues and framed by swaying palms and dramatic granite boulders, this hidden bay promises shallow, crystal-clear waters, perfect for serene swims, paddleboarding or simply basking in nature. Far from the island’s busier tourist hubs, Anse Aux Poules Belues is a place of tranquillity, where the oceans rhythm and gentle breeze invites guests to slow down and truly reconnect. It is this untouched and unspoiled nature that’s makes Mango House Seychelles a destination like no other.
Whether in search for serenity or discovery, Mango House Seychelles invites guests to experience Mahé and its surroundings islands. For those eager to venture beyond the beauty of the resort, the island reveals its treasures with ease. Hike to dramatic rocky coastlines for panoramic views or spot the native wildlife on a guided tour with a private ranger and uncover the island’s rare and remarkable species. Those who prefer to set their own pace can rent an SUV or minivan and explore Mahé’s hidden coves, vibrant markets and scenic hotspots along the way.
The crystal clear waters that surround the island beckons guests for exploration. Glide across the lagoon on a private glass-bottom daytime tour and observe marine life beneath the surface without getting wet or toast the end of the day aboard a private sunset cruise complete with sparkling wine and curated snacks as the Seychellois sun dips below the horizon.
