Not only will you have plenty of time to lap up Mauritius’ sparkling sapphire waters and cashmere-soft sands on this eight-day trip, but you’ll unpick its lush interior and local way of life, too.
Mauritius is an island that has long held a luxury appeal and we’ll make you feel like a VIP from the get-go. You’ll be met by your private driver the moment you land and they’ll introduce your senses to Mauritius by offering you local soft drinks, traditional baked goods and a scented towel infused with flowers like bougainvillea, hibiscus and frangipani. On the way to your resort, your driver will chat to you about the island and recall interesting anecdotes about places as you pass them by.
Once you reach your base for your beach holiday in Mauritius, Shangri-La Le Touessrok, they’ll ensure you’re in the safe hands of the resort’s staff before departing. Shangri-La Le Touessrok is an east-coast hideaway drenched in castaway vibes. Overlooking the glittering Trou d’Eau Douce Bay, it’s incredibly easy to seek out tranquil privacy among the resort’s six velvet-smooth beaches and palm-speckled tropical gardens. Romance is never far away at the resort for a luxury honeymoon in Mauritius, with private beach cabanas serviced by your own butler or sunset catamaran cruises with lobster and Champagne on tap.
The cuisine is a delicious mix of Mauritian gourmet, Japanese and Indian dishes across its five restaurants. We’ve included the resort’s best dining experience for you as part of your holiday to ramp up the romance, with an exclusive seafood dinner at the Beach Restaurant on the resort’s private island Ilot Mangénie. While we wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to glue yourself to its pillow-soft sands, Mauritius has a lush core crying out to be discovered. A duo of full-day guided tours will have you tasting Mauritian delicacies among the markets of capital Port Louis, enjoying an authentic Creole lunch with a local family and sip vintages made from lychees at Takamaka Boutique Winery.
The natural wonders of Mauritius are just as deserving to be discovered. Feel your jaw drop at the thick rainforest and rolling emerald hills of Black River Gorges National Park, spy a waterfall as tall as the Statue of Liberty and pore over the sacred crater lake, Grand Bassin. You’ll also enjoy a speedboat cruise along Mauritius’ glittering east coast, cutting the engine several times throughout the day to experience it in greater detail. Snorkel among the iridescent coral, tropical fish and turtles of Blue Bay Marine Park, paddle in the gin-clear waters of Ile aux Aigrettes and feast on seafood on an unspoiled corner of Ile aux Cerfs. Undoubtedly the highlight of your Mauritius couples holiday will be an unforgettable helicopter flight over the island, where you might have the chance to spot one of Mauritius’ most unique marvels, its underwater waterfall.
