This magical, privately owned 375-acre coral island, protected by reef amidst the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean was named after Denis de Trobriand who landed there in 1773. The resort is barefoot luxury with idyllic deserted beaches and amazing flora and fauna. Unlike the other granite islands that make up the Seychelles it is a stunning coral cay that lies at the edge of the Seychelles Bank making it a superb island to fish, dive and snorkel from.

Set amongst casuarina trees, Denis Island is very peaceful, hospitable and appealing as any desert island hideaway. From your cottage, rustic paths meander through coconut groves past the resident giant tortoises to a spectacular lighthouse built in 1910 and a pretty chapel perfect for weddings.

Each cottage has its own sea facing veranda, air-conditioning, mini-bar, en-suite private bathroom with separate bath and shower opening into a private courtyard with alfresco shower. Double beds are romantically draped with mosquito nets, and the cottages are both fan-cooled and air-conditioned. For families the extra space of the Villa Prince Noir with it's additional bedroom and lounge is ideal or the Villa Bois D’Argent executive villa.

The Restaurant open sided for al fresco dining offers delicious varied cuisine mostly with produce grown on the island’s farm. Lunch with choice of 3 buffets - salads and variety of hot dishes with grilled fish or meat. Dinner, table d'hôte, Creole buffets, BBQ and theme evenings
