We are delighted to announce that starting from December 6th, 2025, all stays on Alphonse Island will be fully-inclusive. This exciting new offering allows guests to really immerse themselves in the beauty and adventure of the Seychelles without worrying about extra costs while on holiday. On Alphonse Island, this will mean that all scheduled activities are now included, beyond the inclusion of drinks (premium brands excluded) and laundry.

The other big news is that luggage allowances to Alphonse Island have increased to allow 20kg of main luggage plus 5kg of hand luggage so there’s no need to deliberate between fishing kit and clothing any longer.

Alphonse Island – what’s included:

Alphonse Island is one of those rare spots where luxury meets untouched nature and is a perfect choice for a combination fishing/non-fishing holiday. Guests relax in elegant beach villas, bungalows or retreats and enjoy gourmet meals crafted with fresh, local ingredients grown on the island’s farm.

Among marine adventures are exhilarating snorkelling and marine safari adventures, encountering sailfish, manta rays, turtles and vibrant coral reefs. There’s cycling through lush landscapes on bicycle tours, feeding the gentle giant tortoises, or joining a guided nature hike on St. François Island. In the evening, unwind with sundowners and dinner at the beach bar, where you can sip on refreshing cocktails, fine wines, or a glass of bubbly as the sun sets.
