White Sands
and Warm Seas
Straddling three perfect beaches the luxurious Constance Lémuria
Resort offers the idyllic Seychelles sunshine destination resort
14
magine a setting of lush vegetation which has been
untouched over the centuries. The legend goes that,
when the continents of the world parted, a small
piece of paradise survived, the Lémuria. Nowhere else
could this be as true as in the Seychelles and especially
on the white sandy beaches of Anse Kerlan, where
turtles still lay their eggs in total tranquility.
Positioned by these amazing beaches and surrounded
by its own (and the Seychelles ONLY) 18 hole
championship golf course, Constance Lémuria Resort
fulfils the promise of the fable and, by its modern day
membership of Relais & Chateaux, confirms its status
as a world class luxury resort.
The hotel has 96 suites positioned 15 metres from the
shore and all are built with natural raw materials such
as wood, marble & granite to offer luxurious
accommodation in a very natural environment. In
addition to suite accommodation Lémuria has 8 superb
one and two-bedroom pool villas. Facing the beach of
Anse Kerlan, these thatch-roofed villas are discretely
nestled amongst the natural gardens. Each villa has a
lounge, relaxation/massage pavilion and a private
swimming pool. A‘Villa Master’ looks after the needs of
villa guests. A superb newly refurbished Presidential (3
bedroom) Villa on its own private beach is also available.
Themain building is set on a hillside overlooking the two
bays and houses the main restaurant, bar, lounge and
boutique. Set in natural granite, a spectacular swimming
pool cascades down over three levels and is the focal
point of the hotel. The Beach Bar & Grill is located in a
spectacular setting on the rocky promontory between
two bays and a third a la carte restaurant, the Seahorse,
is located at the Golf club house.
Adult treats include a Shiseido spa whilst young
children can participate in the many activities of the
complimentary Turtle Club with its dedicated facilities.
Constance Hotels offer the definitive Indian Ocean
luxury resort collection with exclusive and innovative
resorts in the Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles and
Madagascar. For a broader Seychelles experience why
not add a stay at Lémuria’s sister property,
Constance
Ephélia Resort
on the island of Mahé.
The exciting news this year is that
Constance Le Prince
Maurice
, in Mauritius, is undergoing an extensive
refurbishment and will reopen in the autumn.
Meanwhile, sister resort,
Constance BelleMare Plage
,
remains a popular choice inMauritius, offering excellent
facilities including two complimentary 18 hole
championshipgolf courses. For the definitive“barefoot”
experience head to the remote islands of the Maldives
to one of two private island resorts,
Constance
Moofushi Resort
and
Constance Halaveli Resort
.
Last but not least, if a true“back-to-nature”experience
is sought then the private island retreat of
Constance
Lodge Tsarabanjina
off the coast of Madagascar is
the ultimate white sand getaway.
