BEIJING, Nov. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Michelin-star fine gala dinners, lavish festive buffets and brunches, BBQs, picnics, carol singing with Santa Claus and colourful live entertainment are balanced by healthy yoga, pool workouts, mountain walks and sublime spa pampering over Christmas and New Year at new Seychelles hideaway Savoy Resort & Spa.
The Indian Ocean archipelago's 5-star 'Garden of Eden' luxury resort is celebrating its first festive season with a full programme of entertainment and activities for all ages and tastes together with a rich variety of celebratory menus from December 6 through to January 1.
Signature restaurant Pescado is presenting gastronomic 'West meets East' menus by Michelin starred Chef Gennaro Avagnale paying homage to Seychelloise cuisine with an authentic Italian touch and Mediterranean style.
Exquisite Creole, Asian, Middle Eastern and European buffets with live cooking stations are at Grand Savoy restaurant while vibrant beach venue Gecko Bar is the "Place To Be and Be Seen" for beach parties and sundown cocktails with beats from some of the Seychelles' top musicians.
To unwind, Savoy Spa is the spiritual soul of the idyllic new enclave, to encounter a sensory journey transforming mind, body and spirit with some of the world's most clinically advanced therapies complemented by exclusive beauty and body nurturing elixirs by legendary Sothys of Paris.
Youngsters are also kept entertained with a full Kids Club programme, getting into the festive spirit with carol singing, creative activities themed around Christmas, treasure hunts, Christmas movies and stories, gingerbread house, games and face painting.
Leisure facilities extend to tennis, a state of the art fitness centre with the latest Matrix equipment, yoga and Pilates studios, a Russian-style sauna and watersports – with golf, diving, hiking, Ziplining, museums and shopping a short drive from the resort. The resort's giant 700 sqm outdoor pool is the largest in Seychelles, and welcoming amenities even extend to Chinese satellite channels.
Savoy Resort & Spa opened earlier this year beside the beautiful white sands of Beau Vallon Beach on the main island of Mahe, with 163 deluxe guestrooms and suites, each with private terraces overlooking the ocean or tropical landscaped gardens.
"We're celebrating our first Christmas in exuberant style with fun activities and events for all the family throughout the festive season," said acting General Manager Derek Barbe.
The Seychelles was voted Luxury Island Holiday Destination of the Year by Chinese travel insiders in a recent poll. Chinese tourists are newly discovering the Seychelles, with visitor numbers doubling annually for the past two years. With visa-free entry, visitors from China are now expected in greater numbers with Air Seychelles operating three return flights a week to Hong Kong.
Savoy Resort & Spa is on the white-sand beach of Beau Vallon, with its sparkling turquoise ocean a water-sports lovers paradise, from canoeing, windsurfing, sailing and deep-sea fishing to scuba diving, exploring submerged shipwrecks. The resort is just a 25-minute drive from Seychelles International Airport and 10 minutes from the capital city, Victoria.
A pleasant year-round climate of 25-32°C and guaranteed sunshine outside the tropical storm cyclone belt and the rich culture and warmth of the Seychellois people add to the memorable holiday experience.
