THE VILLA
Exclusively Yours
Our family has been farming land in the Seychelles since the 17th Century, and this traditional plantation house was built to pay tribute to our ancestors. The Estate is hosted by our fabulous GM, Maxime Rachel, who has years of experience managing luxury hotels from Positano to Phuket. He will personally take care of you alongside his team of 25 dedicated staff members including attentive butlers, private chefs, a spa and wellness therapist and cocktail mixologist.

A first-rate private chef and his team create unscripted menus according to your taste, and meals are served in picturesque locations throughout the property and surrounding beaches. An impressive wine cellar and in-house mixologist complete the dining experience.
DESTINATION
Discover Praslin Island
Praslin has so much to offer, with guided nature walks through the pristine Valley de Mai – a UNESCO World Heritage Site - spectacular beaches, abundant coral reefs and a superb golf course. Guests can also sail to neighbouring islands discovering hidden coves, free roaming giant tortoises and world class dive sites. We encourage our guests to engage with local Seychellois life on the island, meet our characterful friends, and then retreat back to our private, peaceful oasis.
EXPERIENCE

At La Cigale Estate, we believe in showing our guests our rich Seychellois culture, and this is what sets us apart from hotel stays. We offer curated experiences that will excite, inspire and add colour to your stay. Beyond our walls, our guided excursions will see you engage with Praslin's friendly community, fascinating history and awe inspiring natural beauty.
