Hemmed by powder soft ivory beaches and basking within a sheltered aquamarine lagoon Denis occupies a space out of time, the perfect haven for peace and serenity.
No paved roads here, but meandering paths and sites with names evocative of the island’ history. L’Avenue de Gens Heureux, Turtle Haven, La Vanille d’Olivia. Staff accommodation charmingly set along “Champs Elysées”. La Chapelle St Denis, the archipelago’s first ecumenical chapel, the mysterious Cimetière Marin and the Giant Tortoise pen.
Denis Private Island composes of diverse discoveries wild vanilla creeping up ancient trees; an encounter with a moorhen or paradise flycatcher and other endemics along l’Allée Badamier is not surprising.
