3 hip hotels in Mauritius

How much detail do you want to see?

  1. Le Touessrok Suites

    Mauritius, Mauritius

    The most secluded of the hotels in Mauritius, Le Touessrok is also the best equipped. The hotel boasts its own 18-hole golf course designed by Bernhard Langer. The place is dramatic and a touch theatrical. Many guests have written about the experience of arriving to be greeted by the massive banyan tree decorated with lanterns and gongs that stands guard at the entrance.

    The most distinctive feature of Le Touessrok however, apart from the impressive facilities like the four beaches, two swimming pools, a famous kids club and a fully comprehensive spa, is that the Frangipani Suites are located on a private islet; a Kasbah-style village resort set off the east coast, connected by a covered bridge to the hotel’s public areas on the mainland.

    The place is dramatic and a touch theatrical.

  2. Taj Exotica Resort & Spa

    Mauritius, Mauritius

    Taj Exotica is set in 27 acres of lush gardens and in addition to each room having its own plunge pool, the main pool is a real focal point of the hotel. As the serene blue waters of Tamarin Bay are just steps away, this is a paradise for water babies. Within its colonial architecture the décor appropriately enough is an exotic mix of French colonial, Indian, African and Arabic design.

    Mauritius, or Île Saint-Maurice, has often been described as an island that is between Europe, Asia and Africa. Geographically of course this tiny island in the Indian Ocean is nowhere near Europe, but the fact that it was a French colony for 200 years accounts for the French influence. The natural beauty of the island remains intact, and is the island’s biggest draw card ... that and the weather.

    Taj Exotica, as the name suggests, is exotic and so much more.

    • The swimming pool, with its totemic Easter Island-like carved stone heads is surely the most photographed manmade feature on the island.

    Prices:

    From £2829pp in Low Season (Apr-Jun) / From £3505pp in High Season (Apr-Jun)

  3. The Oberoi

    Mauritius, Mauritius

    Of the top three hotels in Mauritius, The Oberoi is all about the beach and its intimate beach coves. Apart from its setting in 20 lush acres, its dominant feature is its more than half a kilometre of beachfront. Located in the less touristy northwest corner of the island along the Baie aux Tortues or Turtle Bay. The hotel offers a comprehensive selection of spa treatments for those looking to indulge in a bit of R&R, with guests raving in particular about the hotel’s signature paillasson (coconut) massage.

    The main restaurant features a soaring roof of palm-thatched timbers and offers panoramic views across the Indian Ocean. As all the food is excellent, the main choice you have to make is whether to dine inside among the pillars, or outside under the stars.

    The Oberoi is a beach resort for people who have no intention of roughing it.
