Four Seasons Resort at Desroches Island is an exclusive luxury resort located on a remote coral island in the outer Seychelles. It is perfect for couples seeking romance, families wanting space and privacy, and anyone looking to fully disconnect in a natural island paradise. The resort occupies the entire island, which is fringed by nine miles of untouched white-sand beaches and shaded by dense coconut palms. The atmosphere is peaceful and refined, blending castaway seclusion with exceptional service. Guests stay in private villas or spacious residences, each with its own pool and direct beach access. The resort also offers marine adventures, a tortoise sanctuary, fine dining, and an open-air spa surrounded by nature.
