Raffles Praslin Seychelles to Open Spa in February

Raffles Hotels & Resorts’ new resort in the Seychelles will open its new spa in February.

The spa at Raffles Praslin adopts the pearl theme to symbolise the wellness philosophy of transformation, just as the precious gemstone transforms from a grain of sand in a pearl oyster.

Elegant, iridescent mother-of pearl shell décor is featured throughout, the spa - an expression of the philosophy of transformation as well as the Seychelles’ reputation for producing exquisite pearls.

Its signature treatment, ‘Pure Pearl’, uses crushed pearls as its exfoliating agent for a transformation experience. Therapeutic grade pearl powder is blended with soothing tropical essences of organic ylang ylang and bergamot to exfoliate the skin.

 Spa Director, Nik Pappas explains, “The pearl, a gift from the sea, has a rarity and magic that allows it to calm the spirit, open the heart chakra, stabilize emotions and rejuvenate the skin to a lustrous smooth appearance.”

Raffles Spa at Praslin is in one of the most exclusive settings in the Seychelles, close to a natural treasure, the Vallée de Mai UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Spanning 1,243 square metres (13,379 square feet), it is one of the largest spas in the archipelago and features an impressive range of spa treatments, including facials, massages, soothing body therapies, manicure, pedicure, hair care, bridal services and even ‘treatments under the stars’.

Raffles Spa features 13 spa treatment pavilions close to the water, including two spa suites fitted with steam showers, Japanese soaking tubs, and observation decks to enjoy stunning vistas in absolute privacy.

Raffles Praslin Seychelles is a scenic 30-minute drive from Praslin Airport and features 86 villas with private plunge pools and views of the Indian Ocean. One and two-bedroom villa suite options are complemented by signature round-the-clock Raffles Butler service.
