Raffles Praslin Seychelles invites guests to experience a new level of wellness indulgence on the idyllic isle of Praslin in the Indian Ocean

April 2013 – Recognised as one of the world’s Best New Hotels on the 2012 Conde Nast Traveller ‘Hot List’, Raffles Praslin Seychelles is the first purpose-built Raffles Resort in the world and home to the first Raffles Signature Spa. Starting in Spring 2013, this spectacular 30-acre property is introducing tailor-made ‘Body & Soul Journeys’ for guests looking to experience a transformative personalised wellness programme combining spa treatments, fitness activities and spiritual rejuvenation.

The ‘Body & Soul Journey’ at Raffles Praslin includes a four-night/five-day luxury stay in a Villa with private pool with daily breakfast for two; a customised wellness itinerary involving daily spa, fitness and wellness treatments; daily spa turndown with drawn bath in the Villa, plus a home care spa regimen. It also includes an excursion to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Vallée de Mai, and kayaking, snorkelling and biking activities around the resort.

Guests arrive at Raffles Praslin ‘James Bond style’ on the Sunseeker Quantum of Solace speedboat or by 15-minute helicopter transfer from Mahe and check into their deluxe Villa with Private Pool. After enjoying a welcome wellness drink and one-on-one spa consultation, a personalised programme will be custom designed to cater to each guest’s individual needs and wellness goals. The programme can be as active or relaxing as desired.

Guests can relax and rejuvenate with daily spa treatments at Raffles Spa, set amongst natural granite rock formations above the ocean waves. Inspired by the famous Black Pearls from the island of Praslin, localised spa treatments use therapeutic grade pearl powder renowned for calming the spirit, stabilising emotions and rejuvenating the complexion. Another unique treatment is the Seashell Therapy, which uses smooth heated seashells for an invigorating massage. Fitness itineraries can include rise-and-shine jogs, morning beach stretches, group fitness classes, sunset yoga or Pilates sessions on the beach.
