Today’s Best Indian Ocean Experience
Kempinski Seychelles Resort
Kempinski Seychelles Resort Baie Lazare is a five-star beachfront retreat on Mahé’s south-west coast, set between lush tropical gardens, dramatic granite hills and the Indian Ocean. The resort combines spacious accommodation with a strong range of dining, wellness and leisure facilities, including beachfront restaurants, a spa, swimming pool and activities that make the most of its natural surroundings. Its location in the quieter south of Mahé gives guests a sense of seclusion while still providing easy access to the wider island.
Sustainability has also become an important part of the resort’s identity, with a focus on responsible operations, environmental awareness and supporting the destination it calls home. These efforts were recognised at the World Travel Awards, where Kempinski Seychelles Resort was named Seychelles’ Leading Green Resort 2025. The accolade reinforces the property’s position as a luxury resort that combines high-end hospitality with a growing commitment to more sustainable travel.
