North Island Seychelles-Jennifer Aniston & Brad Pitt



This is where Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt went while they were still married.They booked out the entire island so they could have absolute privacy.And boy,if you have the money this is the place to go to.It is absolutely stunning.
North Island is one of 40 granite islands in the 115 islands that form the Seychelles Islands.North Island is a private island resort unashamedly aimed at providing the very best in privacy, location,accommodation, services, facilities and experience. The Island has only 11 guest Villas – exquisitely designed to
celebrate nature and offer an authentic home-from-home ambience.

Apart from being a resort it is a sanctuary where natural habitats are rehabilitated and where critically endangered Seychelles fauna and flora are re-introduced and given a place to regenerate.

NORTH ISLAND VILLAS

Villas that measure 450 square metres (4,890 square feet) which is a optimum size, allowing guests an exclusive feeling and enough room to spread out and enjoy a unique, private,island-style experience to the fullest. The idea is to make sure the Villas would bring the sense to life, but at the same time be a simple space in which to free the mind and refresh the soul.
Each Villa has two bedrooms, a main bedroom and a second bedroom. Whilst the Villa is primarily occupied by one or two guests, they may have a requirement to use the second bedroom for children nineteen years and younger and this is available at an additional cost. Alternatively, the second bedroom can be converted into a
study for guests staying in the master bedroom.
Each Villa has been individually handcrafted by Seychellois and African craftsmen on the Island. The principle materials used were wood, local stone, glass and thatched roofs. All this combines to form a warm and inviting space that offers guests that rare opportunity to relax completely. Each Villa is completely self-contained and
is raised over a metre off the ground to catch the cooling island breezes.
A luxuriously proportioned master bedroom with change-room and writing area leads onto a large en-suite bathroom with marble bath and two showers, one indoor and one outdoor. The bedrooms are air-conditioned and all rooms have overhead “punkah punkah” fans. The fully retracting sliding doors allow for uninterrupted views onto the lawns and the turquoise seas in front of each Villa. There is satellite television, a DVD/CD system and Internet access. The kitchen leads off the lounge/dining area. A private plunge pool and sala are the finishing
touches in this private sanctuary.
