The Seychelles are widely considered to be among the world’s most perfect, unspoiled islands, and Maia is their queen. She reigns atop a beach called Anse Louis, where seclusion meets exquisite beauty and turquoise waters embrace silky sand.
When Vasco da Gama discovered the Seychelles it was labeled on Portuguese maps as the Seven Sisters archipelago. There is also a star constellation known as the Seven Sisters used by mariners for direction. Each of the stars in the constellation was named after the daughters of Pleiades (from Greek mythology). The eldest and most beautiful of the seven sisters was known as Mai, The Great One.
Maia is a place designed to shelter you from the cares of the world. It is a pure and tranquil refuge, where the spirit is renewed and every need is anticipated and fulfilled.
This renewal of body, mind and soul enables visitors to Maia to journey into the still centre of their own hearts, and to find unexpected beauty in all they see, touch, hear and feel.
