Off the eastern coast of Africa and in the balmy Indian Ocean, lies the charming and somnolent land of Mauritius.
The island nation is a union of Asian, Indian, European and African cultures and traditions that feeds into its richly infused cuisine and the inexhaustible mix of architecture in the form of Hindu temples, Chinese pagodas, high-domed Mosques and Anglican and Roman Catholic churches.
Lauded for its unmatched luxury and vibrant culture, a luxury holiday in Mauritius is the perfect destination for when you need some vitamin sea. Picture yourself sitting under the shade of a giant palm tree whilst staring out over azure waves gently hitting the golden shores, as the breeze carries the sweet scent of frangipani. Doing nothing has never looked as good as it does on a luxury travel trip in Mauritius.
Mauritius is one of the world’s most densely populated countries yet as you explore the coastal villages and little towns you’ll rarely see a crowd. A central focus of life on the island is around its markets and Flacq Market on the east coast is a foodie haven where you can indulge on fragrant delights such as curries and wonton soup, try freshly cooked dholl puris and don’t leave without trying the anana confit, native sweet Victoria pineapples dipped in tamarind sauce, salt and chilli powder.
As soon as you touchdown, you instantly know you’ve landed somewhere special. A luxury honeymoon in Mauritius lures newly weds with its sapphire waters, while its quintessential tropical island charm and adventurous core are made for luxury family holidays in Mauritius. Unsurprisingly, the island is chock-full with outstanding stretches of sand (Flic en Flac and Trou aux Biches are two of our favourites) for an unforgettable beach holiday in Mauritius.
Let our Travel Designers arrange all the details from choosing your beach hotel or mountain-top bolthole to planning a private candlelight dinner beneath the stars, chartering a luxury catamaran to remote snorkelling spots and exploring the natural phenomenon of Seven Coloured Earths.
