Escaping to paradise can be easier than it might seem once you learn of Mahe Island and the Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort and Spa. The Hilton is found on the north side of Mahe Island near Beau Vallon Bay. It is five kilometers from Victoria, the capital city and fifteen kilometers from the international airport. This Seychelles Hilton is a private retreat with villas sitting atop a hill or hidden by private beach coves.
Creole cuisine can be found at the Hilton restaurant, as well as some of the village’s local hot spots. It is possible to relax and enjoy a meal outdoors under thatched roofs, while looking out towards North Islands and Silhouette. The Seychelles include 115 islands including Mahe Island. All of the islands are north of Madagascar and east of Africa.
Their founding by the French in the 1700s provides not only French cuisine, but also French architecture and sites of interest. Visitors to Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort and Spa can visit the surrounding islands, heritage sites, and capital city to experience a vacation unlike any other, all the while staying at a comfortable and luxurious resort.
The Hilton offers 969 square foot villas hidden by verdant forests and private coves. Each villa has a view of the Indian Ocean, where an armchair or sofa is waiting for you to relax in. The rooms have a contemporary décor with original artwork, Jacuzzi tubs, and balconies to enjoy the views from. Modern amenities such as high speed internet, satellite television, and DVD players are part of the comforts Hilton provides. Additional special touches such as slippers, mineral water, bathrobes, and fruit are added to make guests feel at home. There are a couple of choices when it comes to the rooms such as the King Hillside Villa, King Oceanpoint Villa, James Bond Themed Suites, and Deluxe rooms.
Three dining establishments are part of Hilton Seychelles Northolme. Les Cocotiers is an al fresco experience with an a la carte menu. They are open for dinner only with Creole and international cuisine on the menu. The restaurant is air conditioned with seating for 30. Hilltop Restaurant is the main dining room with a buffet style breakfast and dinner. The restaurant has open air seating with views of the ocean and a seating capacity of 60. The Oceanview Bar and Restaurant is more casual than the other two choices with views of the Indian Ocean. They serve lunch and dinner as well as all day snack options.
As a tropical paradise most guests are set on spending time at the beach and Hilton Seychelles makes that possible with the Beau Vallon Bay as a place to relax. Sunbathing, snorkeling, scuba diving, and fishing are all possible from the beach at the Hilton. Nature walks and hiking is also part of the experience when visiting Mahe Island.
Morne Seychelles is 10 kilometers from the Hilton to the northwest. Morne Seychelles is the tallest mountain peak on the island at 902 meters. Hiking to the summit is possible for those in shape and used to hiking. Botanical gardens are 8 kilometers, with Sans Souci Viewing Point 10 kilometers to the west.
Since a trip to Mahe Island is mostly about the tropical waters boat charters may be part of your stay. Chartering a boat means you can visit the three marine national parks or at least Ste. Anne Marine National Park. This natural area consists of six islands where you can swim, dive, snorkel and picnic in private.
Location: 5 kilometers from Victoria and 15 kilometers from Seychelles International Airport is the Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort and Spa.
