The Island Piazza  Vacations and Luxury Vacation Packages

The natural focal point of the Island, the Island Piazza, is the forum where elegant buildings cluster about a magnificent Indian Almond tree.

Located on the beachfront, the dive and activity centre, housing both indoor and outdoor tuition areas, changing rooms and interesting displays is where many of the Island's land and marine activities are co-ordinated.

Adjacent to the deck of the activity centre is the library. Built of coral blocks, it is undoubtedly one of the most exquisite examples of architecture on the Island and was already standing when construction of the lodge began. Now, with its exterior walls renovated and its roof replaced, it houses a collection of books on topics of interest, various relics and artefacts as well as a computer display covering Seychelles' history past and present. An ideal place for a quiet and relaxing read, the library also contains material explaining the background to the North Island project and details of environmental programmes currently underway.

Some twenty metres distant from the library are the lounge and dining areas, offering a high degree of comfort and also unforgettable views of the sea and mountains. From here, crossing a walkway over the lily pond will bring you to the wine cellar followed immediately by a private dining sala, with the bar that joins the dining area and the lounge standing not far away in the restful shade of a takamaka tree.

Further up the mountain and hidden from the lounge and dining area is the main pool, a 45 metre long pool that looks over the pool deck to the horizon of the sea creating views of heart stopping beauty. A view of the Piazza from above
