Hilton’s luxurious hotel brand, Waldorf Astoria Hotels, and Resorts are preparing to make its debut in Seychelles with the opening of Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island. This highly anticipated resort, located over 130 kilometers south of Mahé, promises to set a new standard for luxury in the Indian Ocean. The resort is situated in a pristine atoll surrounded by palm forests, migratory seabirds, and turtles protected by a coral reef and lagoon. It will feature 50 seafront villas, including five-bedroom villas with private pools and personal concierge services. The island’s wildlife, such as Hawksbill turtles, eagle rays, manta rays, and whale sharks, will provide guests with a unique and unforgettable experience.
The resort will offer six restaurants and bars serving locally grown fruits and vegetables from the island’s garden, providing guests with a sustainable farm-to-table culinary experience. The Waldorf Spa will feature six treatment rooms, a beauty salon, a hammam, a spa suite, and serene outdoor spaces, offering guests an unparalleled spa experience. To ensure environmental sustainability, the resort will use a solar field to generate renewable energy for most of its operations.
Seychelles has long been known for its luxurious barefoot vacations, and the opening of Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island will add to Hilton’s Seychelles portfolio of five hotels, including Mango House Seychelles, LXR Hotels & Resorts, Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa, Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa, and DoubleTree by Hilton Seychelles -Allamanda Resort and Spa. The brand expects to add Canopy by Hilton Mahé to its portfolio soon. Guests arriving at the resort will touch down on Platte Island and step off the plane onto a 14-kilometer-wide lagoon, where they will create unforgettable memories.
