Honeymooner’s Paradise

After the “I Do’s” is the reception with all the relatives who you both know, haven’t seen since the last sleepover or don’t even know were relatives in the first place. Marriage is the best thing to happen to a happy couple but the best time in their new life together is the honeymoon. An exotic place comes to mind with tropical sea breeze, blue green crystal clear water, white sandy beaches and one name befits such a description …Seychelles. The relaxed way of life on the island is contagious. Luxurious accommodations nestled between the lush evergreen mountains and the white almost bleached sandy beaches makes it a romantic surrender and leaves you in total bliss and yearning for more.


Today you too can discover the pure sways of white beaches, forests rich as emeralds and turquoise seas brimming with marine magic, the isles of love with grooves set in a picturesque way that say that this is a lover’s haven. Le Relax hotel is perched on a cliff, overlooking the bay of Anse Royal; it is a petit hotel in the south of Mahe and is just 1 1/2 minutes walk from the best Snorkelling Beaches of Seychelles! Its unique rock formations and secret alcoves is what sets it apart from all the rest. Honeymooners can stroll along the beaches, or enjoy a cool dip in the crescent shaped lagoons via a full moon leaving the senses enchanted and wanting nothing more than to remain.

You are covered in a warm fluffy cloud of vibrant colours, various scales of beauty, audio scenery and rhythmic scenery. All this gets embedded in your memory in a sonic bottle of ecstasy. The beauty of the flora and fauna of the enthralling island is indeed unparalleled and as a result there is a sense of serenity, tranquillity and purity. This effect is the hallmark of not just any honeymoon but that of a honeymoon in this special group of islands. Seychelles is an exotic proof that there are islands set like equatorial jewels in the warm heart of the Indian Ocean that are as unspoilt as when the first French navigators bedded their siren songs two hundred years ago.

The atmosphere created is a mixture of reality, fantasy and a surreal feeling of satisfaction that erodes all doubts or negative energy. Enjoy a mini spa or a relaxing day by the pool side while listening to the staff humming Creole tunes under their breaths as they go about their daily chores. Honeymooners ask for peace and privacy, and this is what you definitely get at the hotel. Experience a new culture and taste a cuisine like no other; a cuisine that teases the taste buds with flavours and aromas that tingle your nostrils. The sunsets seem to set the sea ablaze casting a spell that weaves its way into the lovers’ hearts embedding itself within their souls and making sure that the spell will last and lure them back time and time again.
