A pristine luxury tropical paradise of undisturbed solitude, but also a place where mesmerising encounters with nature and incredible marine life provide exhilarating experiences. Whether for a romantic escape or a family holiday with a difference, Alphonse Island Lodge offers a truly unique ocean safari holiday experience in idyllic surroundings. Reached by a 1-hour flight by light aircraft from Mahe, you'll feel as though you're in an entirely different world.
Accommodation is set amongst lush vegetation beside white sand beaches and all with ocean views. The Activity Centre is the hub for the majority of island experiences and environmental projects including marine excursions, diving and fishing. Leisurely exploration of Alphonse is positively encouraged, either on foot or by bicycle and your stay includes a number of complimentary guest experiences such as a cycle tour; Island Conservation Society (ICS) walk; and a reef flats expedition & lunch. There's also a comprehensive choice of amazing private excursions & experiences. With its commitment to conservation of the islands, all guests must pay a sustainability donation. This is added to the final invoice.
