Overview

Denis Private Island offers a stunningly beautiful location and an idyllic escape, just 30 minutes from Mahé by light aircraft. The feel here is barefoot luxury and island chic with a laid-back atmosphere rather than the more extravagant design and polished feel of some other luxury resorts. Sandy paths link the different areas of the resort and with just 25 spacious cottages nestled in the lush vegetation, this is an exclusive hideaway. As you'd expect from an extremely beautiful private island with only a handful of other guests, the service is relaxed and friendly, and tailored to the individual. The buildings are designed to blend into the lovely, natural setting and as there is no mobile signal, no televisions in the rooms and Wi-Fi only in reception, guests engage more with the natural surroundings and forget about the stress of everyday life. Although the dress code is a little more formal in the evenings than the day with men required to wear long trousers in the bar and restaurant, you will still find many guests leaving their shoes behind.

Denis Private Island is a coral cay on the edge of the Seychelles bank, 95 km (59 miles) from the main island of the Seychelles Archipelago, Mahé and just 30 minutes’ flight by light aircraft.
A glorious white sand beach fringes most of the island and it's easy to find a spot to yourself where you can be completely undisturbed. The island is also surrounded by tropical reef which can be explored directly from the beach, while in the jungle-clad interior you will come across a variety of flora and fauna. As this is a private island there aren't any other facilities, so make sure you bring anything essential, but the resort is on hand to look after all your needs.

Denis Private Island is renowned for its gourmet cuisine. A fabulous array of freshly caught seafood, marinated meats, exotic salads and fresh vegetables are to be found on the menu, enhanced by local herbs and spices from the island's gardens.

The island has its own farm and rears poultry for eggs and meat and cows for milk. There are also fruit, vegetable and herb gardens to provide fresh ingredients for the chefs. Everything grown is organic and seagrass is used as compost for the plants.

There is one dining room, situated just back from the beach with open sides to allow a breeze to circulate. Breakfast and lunch are buffets while the five course dinners are table d'hote. Twice a week there are special evenings with either sushi or a Creole spread.

The bar is the spot for a refreshing sundowner drink, and private candlelit dinners on the beach, in the wine cellar or on your private veranda can be arranged on request for a charge.

Using only local ingredients, our spa offerings are as unique as Denis itself,
made even more so given that you won’t find an actual spa on the island.We bring treatments to you at your cottage in the open air, and enthusiasts can opt for the Beachfront Spa Cottage, with its very own spa pavilion in the courtyard.

Or, if you truly wish to retreat within yourself amidst the soothing sounds of nature, book an outdoor treatment under the casuarina trees, where you’ll find the only distractions to be the gentle lapping of waves and the occasional chirp of the fairy terns.

Few places could conjure up more creative ways to do absolutely nothing. On Denis, if you’re only compelled to laze away on one of the most isolated, sparsely travelled beaches in all the world, no one will judge. Call it breathing practice.
