The hotel’s interiors combine stylish aesthetic blends, traditional Seychellois woodwork, with sleek contemporary comforts, and offer an array of villa styles and categories. A King Hillside Villa boasts beautifully decorated dark wooden floors, traditional ceiling fans, a whirlpool bath and comfortable lazy chairs to lounge in the sun on.

Marine-obsessed guests will fall in love with the King Oceanfront Villas, set on stilts over the Indian Ocean, with whirlpool baths and balconies offering unforgettable views of the sea.

The hotel’s spacious Grand Ocean View Pool Villas are the ultimate in elegant Seychelles living, each one an impressive 1399 square feet in size. Overlooking the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean with lush tropical forests surroundings, the classic wooden villas are built with brand new private infinity pools looking out to sea so guests can enjoy quiet seclusion in the lap of luxury.



VIP visitors can lose themselves in the calm of the warm sea breeze with a cocktail in hand from the large deck of the magnificent Northolme Villa.

The two-bedroom property is spread over an expansive 3,700 square feet and offers guests a private ocean-side pool, the largest in the north of Mahé, with stunning panoramic views of Silhouette Island, the Indian Ocean and the Beau Vallon Bay. This expansive villa has all the amenities you can dream of – and more – ensuring guests can want for nothing during their stay.



For utter relaxation, head to the hotel’s luxurious eforea spa, an incredible retreat located right on the water. All treatment rooms are sea-facing, encouraging guests to switch off their busy minds and focus on the calming sound of waves instead, as they enjoy one of three spa ‘Journeys’.

Guests of eforea spa will be sure to emerge brighter, feeling refreshed and fully settled in to holiday mode.



Visitors looking for more active experiences at Northolme will find plenty on offer, with an abundance of excursions to choose from both on land and at sea.
