North Island Lodge is not really a hotel in the accepted snse of the word, it is more a traditional African Safari Lodge, with stunning chalets which are mostly open-air, merging with the lush vegetation.

The eleven (450square metre) individual Chalets are the design of architects Silvio Rech and Lesley Carstens, a husband-and-wife team from South Africa. They have created a unique design concept which gives each Chalet a "Robinson Crusoe" 7 Star ambience.

North Island epitomises the Seychelles. Idyllic white sandy beaches, lush tropical vegetation all against a backdrop of grey granite.

North Island is a private island measuring approximately 1.5 km in length with three granitic outcrops dominating the island. Between the three outcrops lie three areas of flat coastal plains or plateaux. With two freshwater lakes being formed in the middle of the Island.

Scuba diving on the surrounding reefs, snorkelling off the beaches, deep sea and fly-fishing, mountain biking and boat trips to other surrounding islands are ways to fill your days.

A Wellness Centre, Gymnasium, library, wine cellar boasting numerous fine and rare wines and heated seawater rock pool, sauna or hot tub add to the many other facilities available.

North Island is our choice for those seeking to enjoy '7 star service' and facilities whilst at the same time being part of this amazing environment rather than being shielded from it.

There are three main beaches on the island - at any time one of these beaches is guaranteed to be sheltered from the prevailing winds. Honeymoon beach where a small "sundowner bar" is located certainly lives up to its name! - A coral powdery beach fringed by coconut palms overlooking a deep azure blue Ocean.

Each Chalet is constructed of wood local stone and 'Ylang Ylang' thatched roofs. Intricate carvings worked into the deck and woodwork by Bali craftsmen mix with upturned tree trunks whose bizarre pattern of branches form a canopy over the deck.

Every chalet boasts a private swimming pool, sun deck and magnificent sun lounger - all overlooking the gardens and Ocean.

Each villa is self-contained and features a large double bedroom with vast en-suite bathroom. The open-air bathroom is elegantly designed and features a huge Balinese marble sunken bath tub, and an outdoor shower with panoramic views. A private massage table and vast towelled daybed together with twin vanity basins.
