Executive retreats · Seychelles
Seychelles is the executive retreat when the list is 8–24 and the brief is villa privacy: Four Seasons Mahé, Six Senses, a private island if the beds match. Not a convention.

This page is the Seychelles retreats brief — a small-list island offsite, not a Seychelles meetings page, not a Seychelles incentive file, and not a convention. Guest caps are the product. Mauritius is the island when the list needs a larger working room.
Recover on Mahé. Work the next morning. Vallée de Mai and La Digue as the landscape day, not as landing-day heat.
Outer-island solitude is the opposite of a 200-person event. We will not sell a 60-person North Island retreat.
Mahé nights, whether an outer-island buy-out is in play, guest-number caps, and inter-island weather buffers drive the brief. We do not publish website rates. Send headcount, dates and whether the list stays on Mahé or needs a buy-out on the RFP form.
Venues
Four Seasons Mahé for a modest board. Six Senses or a private island when the buy-out is real.
Constraints
Access
Mahé roads are winding — we use professional drivers and do not schedule tight back-to-backs. Praslin is a 15-minute flight or a ferry. Outer islands are IDC or private charter; luggage limits apply and we pre-brief them.
SEZ
All international arrivals; domestic and IDC flights to Praslin and outer islands
PRI
Short hop from Mahé for Vallée de Mai and Six Senses boat connections
Experiences
Full day
Coco-de-mer forest at opening hour, then Anse Source d’Argent when the granite is still a private set. The inner-islands photograph that sells the destination.
Seychelles destination →
3–5 nights
North Island, Fregate or Platte as the company’s island — the rare incentive that still feels undisclosed.
Seychelles destination →
Full day, or a transfer day between islands
Private yacht or helicopter between Mahé, Praslin and quieter coves — the ‘we chartered the ocean’ moment. Weather and swell plans are in the ops manual, not invented on the quay.

6 nights · 7-day outline
Mahé arrival at Four Seasons or a peer, a full Praslin and La Digue day, then three still nights. Built for groups too large for North Island and too senior for a cattle-boat island hop. Weather and swell plans are written into the ops manual.
16–60 (inner-island resorts, not private-island buy-outs)
5 nights · 6-day outline
Helicopter or IDC flight beyond the inner-island triangle. Room count is the brief — we will not stretch North Island to a 60-person awards night. Luggage limits, conservation rules and a swell plan go in the first operations note.
10–30 depending on island (North Island, Fregate, Six Senses Zil Pasyon, Platte)
5 nights · 6-day outline
Four Seasons Petite Anse or a Mahé peer for the whole stay. One optional Mission Lodge or south-island day. No La Digue cattle boat. Weather and swell live in the ops manual; the gala has a leeward backup.
16–80

Meetings
Meetings in SeychellesIncentive trips
Incentives in SeychellesCorporate events
Corporate events in SeychellesEXCO and other small leadership lists — typically 8–24 — that need villa privacy and an honest guest cap. A 40-person plenary or a packed incentive ferry belongs on a different island page.
Recover on Mahé, work the next morning, then a landscape day on Vallée de Mai or La Digue. An outer island only when the buy-out is real. Not a landing-day heat programme.
Yes at the right scale — typically 8–24, or an outer-island buy-out when the cap is real. Mauritius is the island when the list needs a larger working room.
Mahé when you need a working room and easier airlift. Private island when the list is a true buy-out and 12–18 months is acceptable.
Yes as a finale, with a real travel day. Not as a two-night tag after transatlantic plus safari.
Send company, headcount, dates, and whether the list stays on Mahé or needs an outer-island buy-out on the RFP form. That is enough for a first outline. We do not publish website rates.
Company, group size, dates and Seychelles is enough for a first reply. rfp@serengetiexperience.com · +255 746 866 126
