If you thought Amal Alamuddin nabbing the elusive George Clooney made her extremely lucky, wait until you see where she was whisked away to for the couple’s honeymoon.
Following the wedding, the two took some time out in Seychelles’ North Island, and thanks to the government’s new law to protect celebrities’ privacy there, it was the natural choice for the newly-wed pair.
The Telegraph’s “Seychelles expert” Tim Ecott gave some information regarding the island paradise:
The island’s 11 villas are large, each with its own pool, and there is no menu for the restaurant – the chef makes up meals according to guests’ individual preference, though fresh line-caught local snapper and wahoo fish are usually a favourite.
Standard villas on North start at £2,000 per night, but the Clooneys are likely to have opted for Villa 11, which is set apart and slightly larger than the others and costs a cool £3,200 a night. And although it might seem pricey, the rates are almost totally inclusive, unless you order vintage wines.
The Clooneys are believed to be honeymooning on the island for a fortnight bringing the cost of the trip, without extras, to £47,000.
Another cool fact is that the island is run by the eco-conscious Wilderness Safari company, based in our very own country of South Africa, who have managed the ecological restoration of the island for more than a decade.
