From the Air

Aerial photography of the Seychelles show how some of Laxmanbhai's projects are on a much larger scale than realised on the ground.  The terrain can be very steep and problematical with giant boulders existing in all the wrong places.  Laxmanbhai has proved to be up to the challenge and this can best seen when viewing the steep hillsides of Four Seasons.  Here you can appreciate the lie of the land as emphasised by the tall pillars needed to elevate the rooms to the required levels for privacy.  Maia displays its network of paths that lead to the each villa which has been strategically placed for privacy.
