The Ultimate Honeymoon
White-sand beaches. Secluded coves. Coral-coloured sunsets. Swish hotels. Hushed
spas. It's not surprising that honeymooners and those seeking a glamorous tropical
getaway have long had the Seychelles and Mauritius at the top of their wish lists.
Le Saint Géran (Mauritius)
Le Saint Géran is a sumptuous, impressive place that manages to get it right on so
many levels - it's classy and stylish without being too formal, it's romantic without
being too quiet and it's welcoming to families without allowing kids to run riot.
Desroches Island (Seychelles)
Many VIPs, including Prince William and Kate Middleton, choose to play Robinson
Crusoe in style on Desroches. It's no wonder - the resort is romantic and extremely
quiet. With its canopy of palm trees and surrounding splendid white beaches, Des-
roches conforms exactly to the tropical-island stereotype.
Silhouette (Seychelles)
If you want to combine romance, outdoors and affordable luxury, Silhouette is your
answer. Here, stylish bungalows complement an already stunning island. Diving, snor-
kelling, fishing and walking are available.
Frégate (Seychelles)
If you want to live out that stranded-on-a-deserted-island fantasy, you've come to the
right place. The 16 opulent villas are so delicious you might not want to leave, except
for a beauty treatment in the serene spa, which uses only local, edible products (will it
be a chocolate massage or a mango facial today, darling?).
