North Island Lodge is a rare sanctuary for guests seeking a gorgeous, unspoiled tropical haven on a large and private island.
All the structures at North Island Lodge have been individually handcrafted to give it a unique atmosphere and the distinct flavour of the Seychelles.
The main areas and all the villas are built directly on the eastern beach: a lounge, dining room and library, beautifully located health spa and gym, world-class dive centre, and a beautiful swimming pool - all built into a granitic outcrop. A sunset bar is tucked away on the western beach of the island.
Most of the activities on the island are included in the tariff, but yacht charters, deep-sea fishing, golf on Praslin, in-villa massage and spa therapy are available at an additional cost.
