The Constance Ephelia enjoys a unique spot set within 120 hectares of land with lush and rare tropical vegetation.
Location
On the northwest coast of Mahé in the Seychelles, Constance Ephelia stretches between two of the island’s most beautiful beaches. Framed by lush hills and overlooking the Port Launay Marine National Park, it’s a resort where you feel surrounded by nature yet never far from comfort.
Rooms
The resort offers 313 suites and villas spread across vast tropical gardens. From junior suites close to the beach to hillside villas with plunge pools, there’s a style for everyone. Families love the space and flexibility, while couples gravitate towards the secluded villas tucked into the granite hillsides.
Amenities
Five restaurants and bars bring variety, from casual beachside bites to fine dining under the stars. There are five pools, a well-equipped gym, and one of the largest spas in the Indian Ocean, offering a truly indulgent retreat. We love how easy it is to find both lively and peaceful corners around the resort.
Activities
Guests can snorkel in the marine park, paddle a kayak through mangroves, or try zip-lining through the forest. Tennis, squash, diving, and guided hikes keep active travellers happy, while boat trips to nearby islands are always a highlight.
Sustainability
Constance Ephelia puts real effort into sustainability, with initiatives to protect mangroves and marine habitats, reduce waste, and work closely with local communities. Their waste programme is impressively broad: recycling plastics, glass, batteries, food waste, even used cooking oil, plus composting and feeding vegetable scraps to tortoises on site.
