Club Med Seychelles
The only resort on Sainte Anne, at a scale and price the rest of this register does not work at.
Sainte Anne is a granite island of a little over two square kilometres in the Sainte Anne Marine National Park, about four kilometres off Mahé and fifteen minutes by speedboat. One resort occupies the island, which technically satisfies the formula this register measures against. It is held in the Extended Index all the same, because the product — an all-inclusive family club of 295 rooms — sits at a different point of the market from everything around it, and the register should say so rather than imply an equivalence.
The island has three beaches and hills under forest. The resort opened in 2021 after two years of work on the site of the former Beachcomber Sainte Anne, which had 87 rooms. It works as a Seychelles introduction for families who would not otherwise reach the country, with children's clubs from two to seventeen.
One resort, one island, at volume. The formula holds even at 295 rooms, which is a useful reminder that the formula alone does not describe a property.
A marine national park offshore. The protected water around Sainte Anne is the island's most durable asset, and it belongs to the park rather than to the resort.
Who it is not for
Club Med Seychelles is wrong for travellers expecting the intimacy the rest of this register describes — this is a large club resort. It is wrong for guests wanting a remote Seychelles, since Victoria is ten minutes away. And it is wrong for those who dislike programmed activity, which is the format. Those wanting a private Seychelles island should look at North Island, Cousine or Fregate.
