In celebration of Global Wellness Day on 14 June 2025, Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island invites guests to embrace this year’s theme, Reconnect, through a thoughtfully curated programme of experiences designed to rejuvenate the body, mind, and soul. The resort’s regular activities offer guests multiple pathways to engage with the organization’s five essential steps of reconnection.
Tucked away on an untouched private island where turquoise waters meet pristine nature, Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island offers a refined haven for guests to disconnect from daily stresses and reconnect with nature, with themselves, and with the world around them.
- Reconnect with Nature – Guided sunrise wildlife walks along the island’s 3.5-kilometer shoreline allow guests to observe endemic flora and fauna while connecting with the natural world’s rhythms. The resort’s guide facilitates these immersive experiences, which support both personal well-being and environmental awareness.
- Reconnect with Self – Individual wellness activities include sunset yoga sessions on secluded beaches, mindfulness-focused snorkeling experiences exploring the rich marine life, and creative workshops featuring traditional coconut painting. These activities are designed to cultivate self-awareness and inner reflection in supportive environments.
- Reconnect with Family & Friend – Foster deeper bonds through meaningful shared moments. Choose a private beach picnic on the pristine shores of Platte Island or indulge in a private in-villa BBQ, ideal for a daytime feast or a starlit celebration. Guests can choose from one of three curated menus or collaborate with the resort’s expert chef to create a bespoke culinary experience.
- Reconnect with Community – The resort’s established weekly beach clean-up programme provides opportunities for guests to contribute to environmental stewardship alongside resort staff. This volunteer initiative supports the island’s sustainability goals while building connections between participants.
- Reconnect with Longevity – Holistic wellness offerings include spa treatments and meditation sessions focused on long-term well-being. The spa menu features traditional Ayurvedic treatments such as Shirodhara and Abhyanga massage, selected for their benefits in supporting physical, mental, and emotional health.
These experiences are available to resort guests as part of the resort’s regular programming, with reservations recommended for certain activities.
Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island opened in 2024 as the luxury brand’s first property in the Seychelles. The resort features 50 villas across the private island, along with six restaurants and bars, a full-service spa, and extensive recreational facilities.
