Fregate Island is located 50km east of Mahe and is a mere twenty minute flight away. Just four degrees south of the Equator, this unspoiled beauty is a lush island alternating between the white sandy beaches, tropical jungle and granite rock. This private island is small which makes it ideal for exploring on foot. It covers 740 acres and reaches a height of 125 meters – Mount Signal.
Magnificently located on a hilltop on a secluded peninsula overlooking the harbour, beaches and a large part of the island, the Banyan Hill complex, at 1100 m2, combines a high level of luxury with a unique feel of privacy and natural beauty.
The complex is comprised of four buildings ,with three villa bedrooms (70 m2) distinct from the living space for added privacy. These villas are located along the cliff with a veranda. The main building includes huge open living area and dining area (approximately 150 m2) with an additional small TV lounge (approximately 20 m2) and a fully serviced kitchen. The private infinity pool, with a spacious gazebo overlooks the Indian Ocean.
An extra daybed or crib can be accommodated in each room, thus accommodating up to six adults and 3 younger children sharing, or two adults with 4 teenagers. This residence is suitable for families with children however it is not suitable for physically immobile persons.
