Frégate Island's pure shores encircle a unique destination: Frégate Island Private, Seychelles, a collection of sixteen luxury villas, each one crafted to provide guests with the highest degree of privacy and comfort, located on a remote tropical island in the Seychelles in the middle of the Indian Ocean.
Frégate Island Private is the only resort on one of the most unspoiled places on earth. Once the island attracted pirates but now it lures the discerning and privileged with its soothing climate, tropical forests, and hidden coves of dazzling white sand. But what really sets the property apart is its commitment to the endemic wildlife that surrounds it. Designed to coexist within a fragile ecosystem that shelters some of the world's most endangered species, Frégate Island Private offers the utmost in luxury - tempered with caring responsibility.
To maintain Frégate Island's tranquillity and beauty without impacting the delicate balance of its ecosystem, Frégate Island Private voluntarily restricts itself to just sixteen 185-square-metre (2,000-square-foot) villas. Built from traditional materials such as native mahogany and African teak in a simple post-and-lintel style, the villas are topped off with dense thatched roofs.
Both the architecture and decor draw on Balinese and Thai influences. Fourteen of the villas sit on top of the cliffs with panoramic views over the Indian Ocean.
Two more nestle in their own private tropical gardens, and these are particularly good choices for families vacationing with young children.
Each villa was situated to make it feel like a part of the surrounding landscape, and to ensure maximum privacy and seclusion for the guests. Sliding glass walls and French doors that can be opened to the elements help to further blur the line that separates inside from outside.
Despite their traditional appearance and supremely laid-back ambiance, the villas come well-equipped with DVD machines and CD players. And, of course, if the fresh sea breezes aren't quite cool enough for you, there's always air conditioning.
In keeping with the resort's commitment to providing its guests
with the finest quality while at the same time coexisting
successfully with the island's fragile wildlife, our chefs create
gourmet meals using produce grown hydroponically in our
gardens. This ensures a steady supply of tomatoes, eggplant,
squash, cucumbers, peppers and other vegetables.
A small plantation yields home-grown pineapples, oranges,
breadfruit, bananas, and a wide variety of herbs and spices.
Naturally, there´s fresh fish in abundance.
There are two main restaurants, one in Frégate House and one in Plantation House, or
you can enjoy your meals in the privacy of your villa. The open-air Pirates Bar serves
light lunches and snacks.
While many guests find that the relaxing atmosphere of Frégate is perfect for doing nothing, there are plenty of activities for the more energetic.
The Rock Spa
The Rock Spa is a haven of serenity, perched on a cliff-top plateau overlooking the sea.
