Seychelles
An intimate 30-villa estate above Anse Louis on Mahe, each villa with its own pool, butler and ocean view.
Now part of Anantara, the former MAIA is a small estate of 30 villas spilling down a hillside to the cove of Anse Louis on Mahe's quiet southwest coast. Each villa has a private pool, an open-sided living pavilion and a dedicated butler, and the mood is deliberately discreet and unhurried.
Its signature is generous inclusion - much of the dining, drinks and in-villa service comes as standard, often taken privately rather than in a crowd. It suits couples and honeymooners who want intimacy and seclusion close to the airport over a big-resort scene.
