Overview of Ephelia Resort
Ephelia Resort Hotel is situated on one of Mahe’s most beautiful beaches and overlooks a marine national park. Tucked away on 120 hectares of lush vegetation, Ephelia epitomises a classic desert island getaway in the Seychelles.
Head out on a morning bicycle ride and explore beautiful Mahe Island at your own pace. The more energetic may want to check out the spectacular waters of the Port Launay Marine Park by sea kayak while those with relaxation and unwinding on their agenda can revitalise body and mind at the award-winning Spa de Constance or at the Shiseido Pavillion. And there is no need to miss out on anything if it is a family holiday with young ones: all these activities can be enjoyed while your children are entertained at the professional Mini Club. Ephelia is the only hotel in the archipelago with a zipline and a climbing wall.

There are also plenty of opportunity to relax: four swimming pools are strategically located around the resort for you to cool off during the heat of the day or you may want to unwind and lose yourself at one of the two spas – Spa de Constance and the Shiseido Spa. Both these spas offer typical treatments – massages, facials, manicures and pedicures – as well as specialised treatments.

Dining
Ephelia Resort has no fewer than five restaurants to choose from with each offering a different dining concept and culinary experience. Organised in different sections, the buffet-style Corossol serves up a delicious range of international dishes ranging from Italian to Asian fare.
Helios on the other hand offers Mediterranean dishes for lunch in a casual yet chic atmosphere. Tapas, antipastos, creative pastas and fresh, thin-crust pizzas cooked in a wood-burning oven are typical choices.
In the cool and relaxed atmosphere of Adam & Eve, guests can enjoy African-inspired dishes ranging from delicious meat-packed skewers to creative salads and fresh breads baked on site. Created with Africa in mind, Adam & Eve is open for lunch and dinner on special themed evenings and incorporates features such as a soft sand floor and granite rocks.
Ephelia’s ‘haute cuisine’ restaurant, Cyann, offers a unique concept and design for your dining experience. Try one of their signature dishes, blending French and Asian influences, as you look out over the Port Launay Marine Park.
There’s a casual atmosphere during lunch but dinner at the Cyann is a more sophisticated affair.
Seselwa offers Creole specialities along with the freshest of seafood in a casual and lively atmosphere. White furniture and bright colours contribute to the natural festive spirit and Seselwa is a popular choice for a meal.
And if you’re up for a refreshing sundowner before dinner, there is an equally wide choice of five bars to choose from – one at each of the five dining areas.
Expert Opinion
We know because we go
Liesel van Zyl
Product Manager
There are two beaches to choose from; a shallow bay great for kids and a bustling beach where 'its all happening'. I loved walking straight from the beach to snorkel and remember seeing manta rays, turtles and pipe fish. All in all this is resort delivers one of the best experiences and best value in the Seychelles.
