LABRIZ SILHOUETTE – THE ESSENCE OF SEYCHELLES

May 8, 2009

LABRIZ SILHOUETTE

A member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, picturesque Labriz is an island retreat on unspoiled Silhouette Island, where mountains covered in a verdant cloak of rainforest reach down to the sea and a 2km long white-sand beach edged by a Marine National Park.  Reached in just 45 minutes by boat from Mahé, or 15 minutes by helicopter, Labriz firmly belongs to Seychelles’ luxury hotel portfolio offering a superb array of dining venues, sports and leisure facilities including the Per Aquum Spa built around granitic  boulders and excellent five-star PADI Diving Centre.

The Tastes of the Seychelles:

The tastes of the Seychelles, indoors or on the ocean-lapped shore, await at Labriz Silhouette. From island originals – Creole specialities – to world cuisines, five dining outlets dotted around the main area beckon guests to indulge in an unforgettable gourmet experience.

Fabulous Sakura Restaurant, set close to the beach, features a striking interior design with Japanese influences offering fusion cuisine and a sushi bar (open four nights a week for dinner).  Teppanyaki served in a lake-side pavilion, with a panoramic view that showcases Silhouette Island’s greens and translucent blue.  The central show kitchen prepares stunning grilled cuisine, highlighted by freshly caught local seafood (open four nights a week for dinner).  An idyllic evening unfolds on the beach at Lo Brizan, with a cool island cocktail, sparkling Champagne or subtle wine.  Lo Brizan features live entertainment at least three times per week.

Tucked away among the verdant slopes of Silhouette mountains is a restored plantation home, Grann Kaz, which houses a café that serves traditional Creole cuisine.  Once an old Seychellois plantation house, Grann Kaz exudes an atmosphere that best captures the spirit and heritage of Seychelles.  Portobello features fine dining Italian-style with a well-stocked wine cellar.  Enjoy air-conditioned indoor seating with an outdoor terrace for dining under the stars (open for dinner four nights a week).  Or visit La Pizzeria for a gourmet pizza, crêpes and light snacks served by the pool.  Exquisite buffets, world cuisine and Creole specialities at Café Dauban, situated overlooking the pool and features views of Silhouette mountains on one side and the ocean on the other.  Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, the café is an ideal venue for a morning cup of coffee or casual light dining with views of the Indian Ocean.  Absolute bliss!

In Perfect Harmony:

The 110 villas are dotted along the east side of Silhouette Island, set between an inspiring view of Mount Dauban and the open lagoon.  Immersed in nature, each of the villas is immersed in unparalleled natural scenery.  A perfect harmony between island surroundings and contemporary Seychelles accommodation, three types of villas deliver different Silhouette experiences.

Chic, tropical style with modern amenities and comforts, Garden Villas, located on the hillside offer a contemporary design featuring natural woods and neutral colours set amidst the lush beauty of Silhouette.  The Garden Villas feature an outdoor shower with spectacular views of Silhouette mountains.  Stunning Beach Villas allowing guests to wake up to views of sunrise across the Indian Ocean.  Tucked away discretely amongst the jungle vegetation, these villas are steps away from Silhouette’s white-sandy beach and the azure waters of the Indian Ocean.  For those seeking extra luxury, six of these Beach Villas feature a private plunge pool.  The most luxurious Silhouette experience, 9 Ocean Pavilions and 8 Silhouette Pavilions – each a spacious villa with a fabulous pool set in a private garden.  Flanking the villa, the separate pavilion is ideal for a romantic dinner ‘à deux’.  For ultimate romance, a large bathtub offers ample space for a shared bath for two!

Per Aquum Spa:

Divine body treatments in a spa on the rocks – mountainside treatment suites set on stilts amidst massive boulders emerging from the forest.  Massage, body treatments and signature rituals inspired by the unbelievable setting.  Creole-influenced spa therapies surrounded by breathtaking scenery.  Divine – the essence of Seychelles!
