Waldorf Astoria, a flagship brand of luxury hotels under Hilton, has broadened its horizons with the opening of the Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island, marking the brand's inaugural venture into the Seychelles archipelago. This addition to Hilton's portfolio in the Indian Ocean enhances the brand's presence in the region, offering guests an unparalleled luxury experience on the serene Platte Island.
Introducing Seafront Luxury
Nestled among the pristine beauty of the Seychelles, the resort features 50 seafront villas, each designed to offer guests a personal haven of luxury and tranquility. The villas, inspired by the natural elegance of the Seychellois heritage, offer panoramic sea views, ensuring an intimate experience with nature, complemented by the bespoke concierge services Waldorf Astoria is renowned for.
Architectural Marvels and Culinary Delights
The resort's architectural and interior designs are a homage to the rich cultural tapestry of the Seychelles, with villas shaped like hawksbill turtle shells, showcasing fan-shaped designs and ascending pitched ceilings. The Waldorf Astoria’s iconic sundial clock at the resort draws inspiration from the Moulin Kopra, embodying a Creole melting pot.
Gastronomy at the Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island is an epicurean journey led by Executive Head Chef Jane-Therese Mulry. The resort boasts six restaurants and bars, each presenting unique dining experiences from Creole-Latin fusion dishes to exquisite Mediterranean cuisine, complemented by mixology classes and private barbecue sessions.
Wellness and Adventure in Harmony with Nature
The resort's commitment to wellness is evident in its spa offerings, which utilize sustainable ingredients for a range of treatments, yoga, and guided meditation, all set against the backdrop of the Seychellois landscape. Additionally, a fitness center and an array of outdoor activities are available for guests seeking adventure.
The Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island is not just a luxury retreat but also a steward of the environment. With eco-conscious initiatives at its core, the resort employs a resident environment manager and marine biologist and operates a 2.5MW solar farm that powers 95% of its operations. The resort's dedication to preserving the local ecosystem is further demonstrated through partnerships with local non-profits and eco-awareness programs like coral planting.
A New Chapter in Seychelles Luxury Travel
The opening of Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island ushers in a new era of luxury travel in the Indian Ocean. By marrying the timeless elegance of the Waldorf Astoria with the natural beauty of the Seychelles, the resort promises an unforgettable escape for those seeking serenity, luxury, and a profound connection with nature.
As the Waldorf Astoria brand continues to expand its global footprint, the Seychelles Platte Island property stands as a testament to the brand's commitment to offering exceptional experiences, environmental stewardship, and culinary excellence.

ELIVAAS has strengthened its presence in Jim Corbett with the launch of five new hospitality experiences Farm Naturelle, Sylvaara, Puvalgarh Farms, Aranya Library, and Dhela Jungle Retreat, expanding its portfolio in one of India's fastest-growing wildlife and leisure destinations.
The expansion reflects the evolving preferences of modern travellers, who are increasingly seeking immersive, experience-led holidays over conventional hotel stays.
