Alphonse Island - Super Villas

Perhaps the finest accommodation, saltwater fishing and diving combo out there..

We think the two Alphonse Island super-villas combined with the world-class flats and bluewater fishing, and the superb diving, make for a very rare and potentially unique offering. The villas are very spacious with large open-plan seating and dining areas. They enjoy all the fishing and diving facilities but have complete privacy away from the other accommodation on the island. We struggle to think of a more private or better accommodation combined with the calibre of mixed-species bluewater and flats fishing, with guides and dive staff to match, anywhere in the world.

Fishing

For two decades Alphonse Island has been at the top of everyone's saltwater flats fishing list. There is nowhere in the world which touches the quality of the bonefishing and only other atolls in the Seychelles can match the depth of species. The diving and snorkelling is of equal calibre.

Accommodation

The two 600 sq/m villas seamlessly blend traditional Creole style such as thatched roofs using local material with polished screed floors and open wooden beams reflecting a fresh island style. They overlook perfect beaches lapped by the Indian Ocean, sea flats and protected coral reefs.

Gear

For fishing, an 8 or 9-wt outfit for bonefish and permit, 10-wt for the triggerfish and milkfish and a 12-wt for the GT’s and bluewater. A complete fishing and diving gear list will be sent upon confirmation. Frontiers can provide expert advice on sourcing the right equipment for your trip.
