Silhouette Island

Approached from a distance, Silhouette Island is a striking sight with a tropical forest and an imposing mountain whose peak tips into a crown of clouded glory.  Located along a 2.5 km stretch of powder-soft beach, Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa fuses together the separate elements of relaxation; pristine beaches, modern and spacious villas, a first class spa and fine dining, with exciting activities like trekking through one of the largest National Parks in Seychelles, or exploring the surrounding National Marine Park. 

Just a 20 minute helicopter transfer from Seychelles International Airport, Mahé and a 45-minute boat trip via Bel Ombre Jetty, Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa offers guests five spacious, contemporary, private and peaceful villa categories, each infused with tropical chic style. The jewel in the crown of the resort is the Presidential Villa, offering panoramic views of the spectacular mountains or the pristine beach. Deluxe Hillside Pool Villas and Deluxe Beachfront Pool Villas each feature a private pool set in a secluded garden and a large circular bath tub, perfect for romance.
