If you are looking for the typical backpacker vibe or a rowdy tourist trap in the Seychelles, Private Film 9 Club is not the place for you. However, if you are seeking an exclusive, intimate, and utterly unique evening under the stars, this might just be the highlight of your trip.
As a valued member of our Private Film Club, you'll enjoy:
Wake up on Private Island Mahé (specifically the Petit Amour Villa). No alarm. The sound of the Mynah birds is the call. 09:00: A "Walk & Talk" on Anse Source d’Argent. Instead of a boardroom table, the producer and director walk through the giant granite boulders. The script is fine-tuned by the rhythm of the tide. 12:00: The "Rough Cut" screening. Held in an underground grotto (repurposed into a 9-seat cinema with acoustic limestone walls). Better than IMAX. 15:00: The Deal. A signature cocktail made with local Coco de Mer liqueur while signing contracts via Starlink Wi-Fi. 20:00: The Gala (Term used loosely). Dress code: Barefoot chic. Screening of the feature film on a floating platform anchored in the lagoon. Guests arrive via electric ferries. 23:00: The review. A bonfire on the beach where the director is happy to take notes because a sommelier is pouring 1982 Château Margaux.
The "better" in the description is no exaggeration. The club manages to strike a difficult balance—it feels underground and exclusive, yet welcoming and sophisticated. The decor is a blend of tropical minimalism and cinematic nostalgia. Think comfortable lounge seating, the scent of the ocean breeze, and soft, curated lighting that makes everyone look good. It feels less like a commercial business and more like a friend’s incredibly stylish private home.
