This luxurious and unique prefabricated timber structure was developed for a five-star prefabricated glamping resort located on a private island in the Seychelles.

The resort aimed to achieve “glamping at its best with a yacht-inspired theme,” influencing the overall architectural design and concept.

A stainless steel main structure was elegantly clad with both Bangkirai and Merbau wood, combining durability with the warm aesthetic of tropical timber construction.

The expansive timber louvre swing doors were engineered to open and close automatically, while the bespoke rotating bed system enhanced the luxury glamping experience.

At Touchwood, we have a highly experienced prefab architect team, specializing in the design and construction of prefabricated wooden villas and sustainable timber structures, tailored to meet diverse client needs across global tropical locations.

Touchwood proudly delivered the interior fit-out of a luxury prefabricated villa located in the tropical paradise of Mahe, Seychelles. Our team ensured that every element combined durability, elegance, and a touch of rustic charm to meet the highest expectations of resort living.

Materials Used for Premium Finishings

Teak and Bengkirai Wood Decking

For the villa’s poolside areas, we installed our prefabricated teak wood decking system, known for its natural beauty and resilience against moisture. In all other outdoor exposed spaces, we utilized Bengkirai decking, offering outstanding durability and a rich tropical look suitable for island climates.

Merbau Wood Parquet for Warm Interiors

To infuse warmth and sophistication into the resort’s bedrooms, we used anti-scratch Merbau wood parquet flooring. This carefully selected material adds character while providing excellent resistance to daily wear and tear.

Custom Teak Furniture and Prefab Solutions

Decorative Panels and Stone Features

Throughout the villa, we installed a combination of prefabricated decorative wooden panels and stone-carved wall features. This blend enhanced the villa’s luxurious aesthetic, delivering an atmosphere that balances tropical rusticity with refined elegance.

Rustic Beam Cladding

For the ground floor’s non-prefabricated permanent beam structures, rustic teak wood cladding was applied, enriching the architecture with a timeless, natural finish.

High-End Custom Furnishings

Every corner of the villa features custom-designed and sourced teak furniture, meticulously crafted to embody Touchwood’s signature quality and sophisticated tropical design philosophy.

Sustainability and Durability in Island Conditions

All materials were carefully selected to ensure maximum longevity and sustainability, minimizing maintenance while preserving the natural beauty essential for tropical resorts.

This luxury prefab villa project in Mahe, Seychelles was designed using Touchwood’s semi-prefabricated timber construction system, combining structural efficiency with aesthetic excellence. The result is a boutique tropical resort that balances modern durability with timeless natural materials.

Premium Timber Selection for Roofs, Doors, and Decking

We utilized a curated blend of Grade A Merbau, Teak, and Yellow Balau wood for the villa’s roof structures, doors, windows, and expansive decking areas. These tropical hardwoods were chosen for their strength, rich texture, and resistance to coastal humidity.

Grand Structural Elements for Outdoor Living

The open-air lounge and dining areas were constructed using massive 50 cm diameter timber posts and oversized beams, delivering a dramatic yet grounded visual statement in line with the client’s architectural vision.

Custom Finishing and Natural Craftsmanship

To complete the design, our team supplied and installed custom-carved wood and stone elements, along with handcrafted teak furniture and decorative accents. Each piece was carefully designed and sourced to reflect the villa’s luxury island character and sustainable ethos.
