1. Sip champagne on the beach watching the sunset
Most beach side resorts in Seychelles offer half-board and full-board packages if you are checking in for a honeymoon deal. Go ahead, book a luxurious beach side resort and let them pamper you while you are busy sitting by the beach, holding hands, watching the sunset and sipping champagne. One such property I’d definitely recommend is MAIA Luxury Resort & Spa. They offer you full board options, along with a personal butler, available 24/7. Each villa is adorned with a private infinity pool, kitchenette, outdoor gazebo and a sun deck.

2. Share the world's biggest coconut on the beach
Walk by the Coconut Plantation on the Anse Source D'Argent Beach and indulge in the world’s largest coconut “Coco de mer”. It is large enough for both of you to share. Don’t get wary of its looks! Coco de mer is truly one natural beauty, that will bring a smile to your face when you see it. Stay in a cozy Airbnb a few steps away from the beach to avoid burning a hole in your pocket and still get the most out of your romantic getaway.
3. Helicopter ride over the islands
Although pretty expensive but absolutely worth it, is a helicopter ride over the Mahe Island. Even better if you book your stay at a private island with its own airport and take a flight from Mahe. From up above, the views of these islands are breathtaking. Denis Private Island in Seychelles is one such property, set amongst tropical vegetation. It offers luxurious cottages and villa accommodations with open air bathrooms, a private courtyard, lounge area and an extended deck.

Another exotic island with a spectacular resort. Cerf Island is located just off the coast of Mahe and can be reached by a helicopter or yacht. This property has everything to offer, right from panoramic views of the ocean, to marine life, creole entertainment, luxury dining and private villas.

5. Get a couples massage & gaze at the stars on a lonely island
Fregate Island Resort is also accessible via sea or air only. It has 7 beaches and a jungle on the island. When booking a package, you can also ask for the one that includes a complimentary 60-minute couples massage and I can assure you, it will be a delightful retreat. The spa at Fregate Island Resort offers a variety of massages. Get ready to recharge your body and forget the stress of work. You also get free non motorized water sports and guided nature walks around the island. Each villa in the property boasts of a private infinity pool, outdoor dining terrace, and daybed.
6. Candlelit dinner by the beach
Although most of the properties in Seychelles are beach side, few hotels have a beach side dining set-up. One such property which fits the bill, yet doesn’t burn a hole in your pocket, is located on the best beach in Mahe; the Beau Vallon Beach. Without any further ado, go ahead and make reservations for two at Hotel Coral Strand Smart Choice and have the most romantic candlelit dinner by the sound of the roaring waves of the ocean.

7. Stroll on Victoria Streets
Oh no! These aren’t Victoria’s Secrets. These beautiful British inspired lanes form the capital of Seychelles. Go shopping for souvenirs in local art galleries and craft markets to take home the memories of a lifetime you created in Seychelles! In the center is the Victoria clock-tower, ticking since 1903. Even better if you two get your own “Home Sweet Home” to relax in while in the heart of Seychelles. Walk around the streets, holding hands and spend a long relaxing vacation away from the hullabaloo of the chaotic city life.
8. Visit Eden Islands
If I could name one man-made heaven on this planet, it has to be the Eden Islands. It is a private property, but calling it luxurious is undermining it. You will find rows of private yachts parked here, panoramic views of the ocean and a golf cart at the entrance to help you take a tour of the entire Island. Add more to your trip to Seychelles and stay in this beautiful secluded waterfront Home-away, nested in the Eden Islands.
9. Drive around Mahe Islands
Right outside the Mahe International Airport, Seychelles, you will find plenty of options to rent your own car. They have all kinds of cars available to suit your budget. Also, most resorts offer free parking facilities. So, select your drive, connect your playlist and get ready to explore this beautiful island by driving alongside surreal natural landscapes of mountains, endless ocean and tiny islands at a distance.
10. Snorkeling in paradise
Even if you don’t know how to dive or are afraid of the sea, Snorkeling is something you shouldn’t miss. It is the easiest way to gaze underwater at the thousands of colorful fish, unique coral reefs and deep blue sea. Most of the beaches around Seychelles are calm and do not have high tides, making them ideal for snorkeling and the clear blue waters result in unbelievable views of the ocean bed. So, why wait? Book a room at Banyan Tree Seychelles, which offers direct access to the beach and spacious luxury villas with private pools. Apart from snorkeling, canoeing is also available at the property.
A vacation which will reignite the flames of love!
Get packing. It’s time to plan the most romantic vacation with your love! Happy traveling in Seychelles and do share your travel stories and photos with us!
