It is one of the 3 best in the warm Indian Ocean (the other two being the Maldives and Seychelles). But Seychelles and the Maldives are certainly not as breathtaking, although their beaches are undeniably scenic. The latter is the most splendid beaches in the world with luxurious wildlife and magnificent, but not particularly beautiful, Mauritius beaches and very little vegetation on the island. The idyllic island of Mauritius offers a rare European, African, and Asian cultural experience with sandy and azure waters.
In comparison with the Maldives in general, and better than Seychelles in general, Mauritius has some of the most luxurious hotels in the world. This is a list of my 10 most renowned resorts on this paradise island.
LUX* LE MORNE
The LUX* Le Morne offers beautiful white sandy beaches, which are located in Mauritius’ south-west corner at the foot of majestic Morne Mountain, which relaxes as far as they can and are ideal as possible for romantic sunset walkers. LUX* Le Morne is a world-renowned UNESCO site. There are 149 rooms and suites in the 5-star resort but a boutique hotel has the tranquility. Located in a lovely garden, this hotel offers 4 swimming pools, gyms, and restaurants that contribute to the worldwide experience of this beach hotel, serving New World wine dishes from the insular flavor.
CONSTANCE BELLE MARE PLAGE
Constance Belle Mare Plage is situated on one of the best beaches in eastern Mauritius honeymoon packages. There is a wide range of things to do, such as a long sandy beach, two golf courses, Indian Ocean snorkel or relaxing in the Shiseido Spa resorts. There are seven restaurants, ranging from luxurious food and beach salads to burgers. Take the chance to do something different whether you’re first diving, water skiing, kite surfing, or just have some gourmet tips from top chefs during one of the cookery lessons.
ONE&ONLY LE SAINT GERAN
The iconic Mauritian luxury hotel Le Touessrok overlooks on a charming, sandy stretch of seafront the calm Trou d’Eau Douce Bay. The lagoon is surrounded by two magnificent islands, a little Ile aux Cerfs with its magnificent 18-hole championship golf course designed by Bernhard Langer, and a small paradaise, special to Le Touessrok guests. This 5-star luxury offers a great array of facilities including a wide range of water sports and land-based events, 7 restaurants and a well-known Givenchy spa.
ROYAL PALM HOTEL
Only one thing Le Saint Geran is located in the north, with over 60 acres of tropical gardens, with thousands of swinging cocoa trees, on the golden Peninsula of Belle Mare on the northeast coast. Rooms with terrace and balconies with a private view of the Indian Ocean. This is a place that always has an immaculate reputation for health and beauty, but can be restored to the public areas and spaces. This hideaway is also a wonderful place for all sorts of water sports with the most popular beaches, caves and reefs.
CONSTANCE LE PRINCE MAURICE
Located in Mauritius’ northeast coast, Constance Le Prince Maurice is ideally situated. It is protected from the wind and offers its guests complete privacy amid 60 hectares of untouched land. The rare, luxuriant tropical garden and the lush, turquoise lagoon and lush sandy white beaches fit in well. A fish sanctuary on the west side of the hotel enhances the nature and the natural beauty of this area. The resort is run by the most important hotels in the world.
