At a glance

Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa is an adults-only five-star resort of stilted villas at Glacis, on the north coast of Mahé.

The Northolme is one of the oldest hotels in the Seychelles, on a rocky, palm-covered coast at Glacis, a short drive from Beau Vallon. Ian Fleming stayed here and drew on it for his writing. The villas stand on stilts down the hillside and over the rocks, each with a balcony or deck and ocean view, some with a private pool.

An adults-only resort, small and romantic, with around 56 villas built around couples. An infinity pool over the water, an eforea spa, and a yoga studio sit alongside experiences like floating breakfasts and candlelit dinners on the rocks. Dining covers two restaurants and bars, with a small beach below and a free shuttle to Beau Vallon. The airport is about 45 minutes away.

In detail

  • Food and Drink

    Food and Drink

    Two restaurants and a couple of bars cover the food and drink. Les Cocotiers is the main dinner restaurant, with a European and international menu, and a second oceanfront restaurant and bar handle daytime meals and drinks above the water.

    Beyond the regular menus, the resort leans into set-piece dining: floating breakfasts in your pool, candlelit dinners on the rocks, and sunset aperitivo. Intimate rather than large-scale.

  • Spa and Wellness

    Spa and Wellness

    The eforea spa is the wellness centrepiece, with couples’ treatment rooms, body treatments, and aromatherapy, plus a steam room and Jacuzzi.

    The infinity pool stretches along the edge of the rocks above the ocean, with weekly yoga classes and a fitness centre on-site. Down at the water, snorkelling and diving are easy off the resort’s beach, with calmer swimming a short shuttle ride away at Beau Vallon.

  • Location

    Location

    The Northolme sits at Glacis, on the rocky northwest tip of Mahé, where the coast breaks into granite headlands and small coves rather than long beaches.

    The resort’s own beach is small, but the wide sweep of Beau Vallon, with its restaurants, bars, and dive centres, is a few minutes away by car or the resort shuttle. Victoria, the capital, is close, with Seychelles International Airport about 45 minutes south.

Travel inspiration and editorials

Kenya’s most compelling honeymoon itinerary moves between two entirely different worlds: the wildlife-dense plains of the Maasai Mara and the ancient coral-stone quietude of Lamu Island. Together, they form a journey that is both dramatically varied and precisely calibrated for couples seeking depth over spectacle.

While the Masai Mara dominates Kenya’s safari conversation, Laikipia Plateau has quietly assembled one of Africa’s most compelling luxury wildlife destinations across its network of private conservancies. Here, exclusivity is structural rather than marketed; it takes the form of land, access, and a conservation model that keeps the crowds out by design.

The Amalfi Coast offers no shortage of places to spend money well, but Positano and Ravello represent two fundamentally different arguments for how a luxury trip here should feel. Choosing between them is less a matter of preference and more a question of what kind of traveller you actually are.

Chianti’s landscape of cypress-lined ridges, fortified wine estates, and medieval villages has long attracted travellers seeking something more considered than a hotel stay. Here, a villa is not an amenity but the destination itself.
