Frégate Island Private

Frégate Island Private is situated four degrees south of the equator in the inner islands of the Seychelles. Frégate is the most remote and secluded of the Seychelles granite islands. Frégate is an island of outstanding natural beauty with giant granite boulders rise from the powdery white sand of seven beaches, protected by granite barriers. It is secluded, but not out of this world. It is precious, but not beyond our means. It is fragile, but not untouchable.

Frégate Island Private has 16 villas, restricting the number of guests to a maximum of 40 at any one time. The island remains exclusive to its guests - no day visitors are allowed -with each villa positioned to ensure ultimate privacy. The villas are built of native mahogany and blend harmoniously into the natural surroundings. The tropical feel of the buildings is deliberately casual. Each villa has a large terrace with a day bed and jacuzzi as an extension of the living area.

In the evening, the Plantation House turns into a romantic restaurant serving traditional Creole dishes and island specialties. The alternative dining venue is Frégate House, where a gourmet menu features the Chef's daily selection of local produce. Dining is available on the lower terrace and also in the restaurant. Guests can also dine in the privacy of their own villa or at the Beach Bar at Anse Bambous. Frégate Island Private has its own source of freshwater and most of the fruit, vegetables, salads and herbs consumed on the island are homegrown. In addition to an abundance of naturally growing mangos, papayas, guava, coconuts, melons and bananas, a team of gardeners cultivate a wide range of organic produce in the island's plantation and Hydroponics House. Guests can see all the produce growing first hand and savor the distinct aromas of coffee plants, mint, cashew apples and vanilla - a creeping plant found on many of the island's trees. Produce is harvested daily and the resort's Chef places a firm emphasis on simplicity to maximize the food's natural goodness.

Frégate Island Private offers a host of activities on, in and under the water. There are two freshwater pools and seven beaches - one of which, Anse Victorin, is renowned as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Discover another world while snorkeling, explore the ocean aboard a kayak, go game fishing or take a boat trip to explore a remote island. Sailing and motorboats take guests to the numerous dive sites around the island. The marina overlooks a turquoise lagoon, protected by a small reef which restricts the waves and makes the beach here particularly safe for swimmers, snorkellers and beginner divers.
