Anantara Maia Seychelles is a breathtaking 30-villa property overlooking Anse Louis beach on the southwest coast of Mahé. The Bill Bensley designed resort sprawls across hectares of lush gardens flanked by soft white sands and forest. Each of the exceptional villas at the family friendly resort offers a generous 250-square-metres of living space, innovative design and elegant furnishings with a rustic touch. All offer complete seclusion and views from your private infinity pool.

For the ultimate in island living, we recommend waking to the sound of waves lapping in a Premier Beach Pool Villa. Emerging from the glistening waters right outside your villa you can refresh in the walk-in rain shower or soak in an outdoor tub, with full-size Hermés bath products to add a luxurious touch. Premier Villa guests can also take advantage of daily private yoga sessions and Qi Gong lessons, unlimited scuba and a 60-minute signature massage per-person, per- stay. Whichever villa you choose, a dedicated Villa Host will be available to attend to your every whim, including on-call dining.

All-inclusive dining means you can dine anytime and anywhere you desire. Creole, Asian, Indian and Mediterranean wonders will be whipped up by the resort’s highly skilled chefs at your beck and call. Enjoy light bites and cleverly crafted cocktails at the Sunset Pool Bar, and Mediterranean delights with an Asian-Creole touch at beachfront Tec-Tec, where you can dig your toes in the soft sand while you dine. Travel a world of wine with a mouthwatering wine pairing menu carefully curated by our master chefs and sommelier. Make your culinary dreams come true with the resort’s Dining by Design, a bespoke meal crafted just for you in an intimate setting on the hillside or beach, or simply savour private dining in the comfort of your villa. Spend your days enjoying water sports, diving, snorkelling and undertaking cultural adventures around the island. Or escape to the sanctuary of the Anantara Spa with its three open-sided treatment pavilions as you indulge in soothing signature treatments.
