Two-centre Banyan Tree Seychelles beach with luxury Banyan Tree Al Wadi - Arabian Desert resort

Banyan Tree Seychelles offers a choice of specialty restaurants as well as a variety of romantic private dining options in locations throughout the resort such as a moonlight dinner on the beach or candlelit champagne on the rocks. Other resort facilities include a stunning hillside Banyan Tree Spa and main infinity swimming pool.
Intendance Bay is a spectacular beach, however you need to be cautious when swimming as the currents here can be seasonal and deceptive. As the resort has rocky terrain and many of the villas are split level, it is less suitable for those with walking problems or with younger children.
 

Each of the 101 Pool Villas is air conditioned, luxuriously furnished along an Arabian theme and has a private garden, pool and sundeck. The Tented Pool Villas are more Bedouin in style with canopied ceilings and are larger in size.

Despite being in the middle of the desert Banyan Tree Al Wadi is not short of facilities and boasts its own private beach, 20 minutes away from the main resort, where you will find 32 Beachfront Pool Villas, the Beach Club and various water sports. Other facilities throughout the whole complex include a choice of restaurants, nature reserve, falconry centre where guests can take the first falconry course in the Middle East, Banyan Tree spa with a large hydrotherapy facility and golf course (20 minutes drive).  Unlike most desert options you can easily spend a week here.
