We are so excited to add Mauritius to our Indian Ocean collection. A tropical paradise with over 200 miles of stunning palm-fringed coastline, Mauritius has – quite rightfully – long been a top pick for those seeking out dreamy white sands and crystal clear waters. Mauritius ticks all the boxes. This beautiful island isn’t just a haven for couples, it’s also great for families to create unforgettable memories.
There are plenty of watersports for everyone to get involved in both above and below the water, as well as incredible wildlife-filled rainforests and impressive waterfalls to discover. For those who prefer a more leisurely pace, the pristine beaches are the perfect place for pure escapism, be it a spot of sunbathing or delicious meals enjoyed on the beach. And when the service is second to none like it is in Mauritius, there’s nothing left for you to do but relax.
As an all-year-round destination, we recommend going September to January, making it an excellent contender for some winter sun or your next October half term getaway. For those travelling with children, the kids clubs run late into the evening and the beach is a short stroll away.
Paradis Beachcomber Golf Resort & Spa
Set against the iconic backdrop of Le Morne mountain, a UNESCO heritage site, and idyllic shores, you could be on your own private Island here at Paradis Beachcomber. Boasting one of the most spectacular golf courses we have ever laid our eyes upon, as well as complimentary watersports; this resort is packed with things to do. You can really make the most of all the activities on offer, or simply relax in paradise – the choice is yours.
As Mauritius’ first luxury hotel, Le Saint Géran chose what is probably the best spot on the island; a sheltered private peninsula on the north eastern shore, sandwiched between a crescent lagoon and the Indian Ocean. This is a secluded slice of heaven where you can wake up to awe inspiring views of emerald waters and gently swaying coconut palms. To really take advantage of the hotel’s opulence, the suites come with their own butler to cater for your every want and need.
For unforgettable experiences beyond the sun loungers, we recommend these activities:
Swim with dolphins: Get up close and personal with these intelligent and magnificent creatures for a once in a lifetime experience.
Ocean Activities: Mauritius is a haven for watersports; sailing, waterskiing, kayaking, paddle surfing, and kitesurfing available at most beaches.
Marvel at life underwater: Crystal clear lagoons and protected coral reefs are perfect for snorkelling or scuba diving. Alternatively, opt for a glass-bottomed boat to experience marine life a different way.
Hiking in Black River Gorges National Park: waterfalls tumble through dense forests and hillsides in Mauritius’ largest National Park, and keep your eyes peeled to spot some of the many species of birds and monkeys that live here!
Discover Port Louis, the island’s capital: Wander the markets of this vibrant capital and immerse yourself in the diverse culture of Mauritius by sampling the food at the busy street markets or stepping into one of the many Hindu temples.
