Banyan Tree Seychelles Resort is nestled in the Intendance Bay on Mahé Island, Seychelles; only 30 minutes by car from Mahé International Airport and 45 minutes from the capital, Victoria. Mahé offers the perfect introduction to the Seychelles and the Seychelles hotels, with its steep mountain slopes carpeted with lush tropical vegetation and sweeping coastline fringed by palm trees.
The resort covers an area of approximately 117 hectares on the island's south-western coastline with a fabulous beach frontage of 800 metres overlooking what has been described as one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world.
Seychelles includes an archipelago of 115 islands, of which only 33 are inhabited in the Indian Ocean, northeast of Madagascar. Nearby island countries and territories include Mauritius and Réunion to the south and the Maldives to the northeast.
The local climate is tropical, tempered by marine influences and fairly humid. The southwest monsoon is a generally cooler season which lasts from late May to September, while the warmer northwest monsoon lasts from October to May. The Seychelles are fortunate to lie outside the tropical cyclone belt.
History:
In 1502 the Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama discovered the Amirantes Islands. In 1609 John Jourdain was the first Englishman to set foot on the Seychelles. Mistaken for the original 'Garden of Eden' by General Gordon over 100 years ago, these 115 islands in the Indian Ocean have retained their charm and mystique as one of the last paradises on earth.
