Overview
The fullest Seychelles trip: four nights in a Raffles hillside villa on Praslin, four on Denis Private Island, a coral island with a working farm and deep-sea fishing, and four at Mango House on Mahé's west coast.
Most visitors only see the granite islands. Denis is different — flat, coral, on the edge of the Seychelles bank, with world-class deep-sea fishing off the drop-off. Before it, Raffles gives you Praslin's beaches and the Vallée de Mai; after it, Mango House, built on a photographer's former home, is a design-led finish close to the airport.

- Seaweed washes up on some beaches from June to September; it is seasonal and localised.
- This is the most expensive of the three primaries, and the least resort-uniform.
