Journeying From Pristine Wilderness to a Private Luxurious Haven
Cousine Island's transformation from a pristine wilderness into a luxurious private haven is a tale that dates far back into history. It’s about meticulous stewardship and visionary ambition.
She was originally a bastion of unspoiled natural beauty. Pearl-white beaches stretch along the shoreline, bright green flora blurring with the smooth, weathered rocks shaped by centuries of ocean winds.
The island has since evolved. Marrying her wild, organic roots with the pinnacle of luxury living. Combining the old with the new. However, it wasn’t a simple journey.
In 1818 the island was sold to Pierre Hugon. Unfortunately, she was severely hurt during this period — her fauna and flora were drastically affected by the extraction of natural resources. The local wildlife suffered, and she lost most of the animals that once called her home.
But in 1992 Cousine Island was given a second chance. Her healing journey began with a deep respect for the island's inherent splendour. Efforts were focused on preserving the vibrant biodiversity and ecological integrity that define the Seychelles.
Cousine Island's lush forests have been carefully nurtured back to life. Slowly but surely, the local wildlife returned to her, revitalising the island.
Efforts were made to ensure that the development of the island not only coexists with but also enhances her natural environment. The modern and luxurious offerings of the island now integrate perfectly with the local fauna and wildlife.
The villas, each a sanctuary of comfort and elegance, have been designed to blend into the landscape, offering panoramic views of the ocean and the island's verdant heart. The interiors reflect a harmony of traditional Seychellois craftsmanship and contemporary luxury, ensuring every amenity is at hand while maintaining an ambience of elegance.
Cousine Island stands today as a testament to what can be achieved when luxury and ecological consciousness are pursued with equal passion. We invite you to feel the rich history of Cousine Island and engage in conservation efforts.
