North Island is a global icon of "luminous" luxury and environmental restoration. Once an abandoned plantation, it has been transformed into a "Noah's Ark" for endangered Seychellois species. As of 2026, it remains a favorite for royalty and world leaders (famously hosting the honeymoon of the Prince and Princess of Wales). The island operates on a "luxury of space" philosophy, where the architecture blends into the granite boulders and tropical forest, and guest experiences are entirely bespoke with no set schedules or menus.
Accommodations & Design The 11 villas are architectural masterpieces using wood, local stone, and glass to create a "sanctuary" feel. Villa North Island (Villa 11) is the crown jewel, tucked away at the far end of East Beach and accessible only by a private bridge. Each villa features a massive master suite, a secondary lounge (convertible to a guest room), a private plunge pool, and oversized marble bathtubs. The 2026 design language is organic and tactile—using silk, velvet, and driftwood to create a warm, residential atmosphere.
Amenities & Inclusions The North Island experience is centered on "spoiling" and "sustainability."
Gastronomy: There are no menus. The executive chef creates personalized culinary journeys served in the Piazza, the West Beach Bar, or in-villa.
Wildlife & Conservation: Guests are invited to join the island’s ecologists to track Hawksbill turtles or learn about the "Noah's Ark" project.
Marine & Leisure: Includes a PADI dive center, sea kayaking, paddleboarding, and deep-sea fishing. Every villa is provided with its own electric golf buggy.
Wellness: The North Island Spa is perched on a granite hill, offering panoramic views and treatments using natural island-harvested ingredients.
How Private Is This Island? Privacy at North Island is arguably the most secure in the world. With 11 villas spread across nearly 500 acres, the guest density is incredibly low. The island is strictly off-limits to non-guests, and the surrounding waters are patrolled. Your villa is a self-contained universe where "invisible" service ensures your every need is met without ever seeing another person. For high-profile individuals, North Island provides a sovereign kingdom where they can be entirely themselves, protected by both geography and professional security.
