Mango House Seychelles, LXR Hotels & Resorts

If you found yourself marooned on Mahé at Mango House Seychelles, LXR Hotels & Resorts, you might not ever want to be rescued. Secluded and stylish with five enticing restaurants and bars, three inviting pools (an infinity option peeking out at the bay, a pool in a wooden deck and an eye-shaped one by a bar) and a spa where you can get treatments overlooking the water, this luxe Seychelles resort elevates island life.

The first Indian Ocean outpost from Hilton’s LXR Hotels & Resorts collection checks all the luxurious boxes, including its boutique size (just 41 rooms), beachfront setting, warm staff and artistic details. The property’s artistic bent is an homage to its origins as the home of Italian fashion photographer Gian Paolo Barbieri, who coined the modern-day resort’s quirky nickname in the 1970s. Like something out of one of Barbieri’s Vogue spreads, Mango House personifies island chic with colorful touches and natural elements that coexist in harmony with show-stopping ocean views.
