In today’s fast-moving world, travellers often find themselves torn between the excitement of a city break and the serenity of an island escape. While cities offer heritage, culture, and buzzing energy, they can also be overwhelming with crowded streets, packed itineraries, and the constant rush of urban life. By contrast, an island escape promises a slower rhythm, where every moment feels restorative and stress-free.
This is the philosophy at the heart of Constance Hotels & Resorts, whose luxury properties are spread across the Indian Ocean. Each resort is designed as a sanctuary, a place where guests can leave behind the pressures of daily life and immerse themselves in the healing power of nature.
A Village Within a Resort
Unlike a city stay, where sightseeing often means taxis, queues, and tight schedules, a Constance Island holiday unfolds seamlessly within the resort itself. Guests can stroll through tropical gardens, cycle along shaded trails, or kayak between mangroves without ever stepping beyond the hotel. Many resorts resemble self-contained villages: food is freshly prepared with locally sourced ingredients, coconuts are harvested on-site, and fish arrive daily from the surrounding waters.
Nature at Your Doorstep
Some properties span vast landscapes. Constance Ephelia in the Seychelles covers 120 hectares, with five beaches and hiking trails leading into the Morne Seychellois National Park. Here, guests encounter mangroves, rare trees such as Albizia and Kafé Maron, and a wealth of marine life. Over on Praslin Island, Constance Lemuria is embraced by three beaches, including Anse Georgette, which is ranked among the world’s most beautiful. Turtle preservation is central to the resort’s mission, with a dedicated turtle manager overseeing conservation, protecting nests, and offering guests the chance to release baby turtles into the ocean.
In Mauritius, Constance Prince Maurice is set around a natural fish reserve with a one-of-a-kind floating restaurant and on-site beehives producing fresh honey, while Constance Belle Mare Plage is renowned for its expansive golf courses and surrounding nature. In the Maldives, Constance Halaveli and Constance Moofushi are surrounded by colourful coral reefs, rare birds, and unique crabs, while Constance Tekoma Rodrigues offers an unspoiled natural environment that adds another layer of discovery.
Active Yet Effortless
An island escapes with Constance Hotels & Resorts balances wellness and adventure in equal measure. Guests can dive with turtles, go fishing at sunrise, or paddle across turquoise lagoons. Spa villages, yoga pavilions, and healthy dining experiences ensure body and mind are equally nurtured. From barefoot walks at sunset to stargazing in silence, every moment becomes a memory rooted in nature’s beauty. Add to this the fresh ocean air, clean water, and locally sourced food, elements rarely found in cities, resulting in a holiday that leaves guests deeply relaxed and restored.
The Island vs. The City
While a city escape thrives on fast-paced energy and cultural encounters, it can easily become overly stimulating, often leaving travellers more exhausted than refreshed. An island escape, by comparison, offers a slower, more reflective rhythm. At Constance Hotels & Resorts, every detail is designed to foster deep connections with nature, with loved ones, and with oneself. Wellness experiences, barefoot walks on pristine beaches, and moments of stillness create a restorative balance that city breaks rarely provide. Memories made on an island are rooted in natural beauty, from sunsets over the ocean to the taste of freshly caught seafood, leaving guests not only inspired but truly rejuvenated
