A hidden gem with unspoiled beaches and coral reef
Platte Island is a marine paradise with 13km of coral reef surrounding the island. It is known for its pristine unspoiled beaches. Occupied solely by the Waldorf Asroria, this private island is a luxurious paradise for those seeking extreme comfort and privacy all within a natural haven. The island is only just over a km long, but has over 3km of pristine beaches to explore and find your own sanctuary.
Giant Aldabra Tortoises meander through the gardens and the wild flora of the island, happy to share their space with visitors. Both Green Turtles and Hawksbill Turtles nest on the white sandy beaches seeking the protection the reefs give from predators
