Damselfish island holiday

Damselfish island holiday: In full

This stunning beach holiday to the Seychelles spends 1 night at Le Sans Souci before continuing on to spend 7 nights on Denis Island; it's a small, private island 60 miles north of Mahé, with a lush green centre enclosed by white sandy beaches and the deep blue Indian Ocean; there's only one place to stay here – Denis Island Lodge, with its lovely cottages and villas.


Day 1

Starting from London Heathrow, your scheduled Etihad overnight flight will take you to Mahé, where you land in the afternoon.

Day 2

1 night at Le Sans Souci (bed & breakfast) | Mahe Island, Seychelles

Le Sans Souci guesthouse has a commanding position overlooking Mahe's capital, Victoria.You'll be met on arrival by someone from your hotel who will drive you along the winding roads up to your hotel for the evening. You need this overnight stay as you'll arrive too late to make the onward flight connection, but it will give you a chance to enjoy a flavor of Mahe before continuing onto your private island. You'll spend 1 night at Le Sans Souci. Set up in the hills, the views from Le Sans Souci are spectacular.

Days 3-9

7 nights at Denis Island Lodge (full board) | Denis Island, Seychelles

Denis Island Lodge has 25 cottages, spread along the island's northwestern coast...You'll be transferred to the airport to connect onto a short 30-minute domestic flight to Denis Island. From there it's a very short ride to the lodge, on the north western coast of the island, and your own beach-side room. You'll stay for 7 nights at Denis Island Lodge in one of the lodge's deluxe cottages, set within 30m of your own stretch of beach. Despite its size, there's always something to do on Denis Island – visit the giant tortoises enclosure or the lighthouse, wander around the forested interior and take in the abundant birdlife, arrange superb snorkelling or diving trips at the watersports centre, or relax and unwind on one of the island's secluded beaches.

Day 10

Around noon, a domestic flight will take you back to Mahé Island in approximately 30 minutes. Your scheduled overnight flight back to the UK with Etihad will usually be in the late evening, generally allowing you time to sight-see on Mahé, if you wish, whilst waiting for your flight connection.

Day 11

Your flight lands in London Heathrow early in the morning, giving you a full day to travel on to your home or make connections with other flights – at the end of a unique beach holiday on Denis Island.
