Seychelles
An all-villa resort on Praslin's north coast, every villa with a private pool and a sea-facing pavilion.
On a rise above Anse Takamaka on Praslin's north coast, Raffles is a resort of 86 villas, each with its own plunge pool and an open pavilion looking out to sea. The Vallee de Mai, the pink-granite sand of Anse Lazio, and the islands of Curieuse and La Digue are all close by.
It suits couples and families who want a full-service resort with privacy built in rather than a tiny hideaway. Through late August 2026 a refresh of the main dining and social spaces is underway, with alternative venues in place; the villas and beach are unaffected.
