Overview of Denis Island

A thirty minute flight from Mahé you’ll find Denis Private Island. Once a thriving coconut plantation, the rich vegetation of Denis Private Island is home to roaming giant tortoises and nesting sea birds.

Named after the French explorer who first visited in 1773, the island is now a private island estate that invites you to immerse yourself in an exceptional lifestyle.

Welcomed off the plane by the Island Manager, you will quickly be charmed by your attentive hosts, seduced by the understated elegance of your private, beachfront cottage and tempted by the exquisite cuisine.

Being nominated by the World Luxury Hotel Awards in 2014 for Luxury Private Island Resort, Best Scenic Environment and Luxury Green Hotel, says something about the remarkable Denis Private Island, but it sure is worth a visit yourself!
