Mauritius is a remote relaxation hub within the sparkling blue waters of the Indian Ocean. First discovered by Arab sailors in the ninth century, its postcard-perfect beaches, diverse wildlife and fresh seafood have attracted visitors back ever since. The island provides endless ways to relax, but if you’re after something adventurous then you won’t be left wanting. The surrounding waters are a playground for kitesurfing, speedboating and water skiing. The intense blue waters are perfect for snorkelling and scuba diving amongst the abundant marine life and coral reef. The fun continues on dry land, where you can enjoy rock climbing, canyoning or a tour of the Moka mountains by quad bike, 4x4 or on horseback. Mauritius is also a paradise for the palate, offering exotic dishes such as deer curry and roasted wild boar. Beachside shacks serve fish fresh off the boats, while other street food vendors offer coconut water and delicious fruit covered in chili and sugar. Accommodation ranges from luxury beachfront hotels to cosy guest houses, with choices scattered all over the island. You’ll also find a good selection of seaside villas and apartments.

Maison Du Nord is situated in Pointe aux Cannoniers, less than 1 km from Pointe aux Canonniers Beach, and has a garden, a terrace and a restaurant.
Guest review
Perfect place to spend your holiday with family. The property is situated in a quiet place and we had very polite and quiet neighbours as well, nothing disturbed our holiday. The staff is very attentive and treats you as a guest, not as a customer. It was a feeling like they read your thoughts, they always felt our needs, we never asked anything but got everything.
Our suite was big enough for family in 4 persons, children even had different rooms to sleep. Room was cleaned and towels changed every day.
Thank you for making our holiday perfect! Highly recommend this place!

Paradis Beachcomber Golf Resort & Spa is located on Mauritius' le Morne Peninsula.
Guest review
From the moment we arrived, Paradis Beachcomber exceeded every expectation. We were warmly welcomed with a complimentary room upgrade, an incredible gesture that set the tone for the rest of our stay. The room was immaculate, beautifully appointed, and offered breathtaking views. Every detail, from the décor to the amenities in the room reflected thoughtful attention and care. The staff were genuinely warm and attentive, always ready with a smile and a helping hand. And the breakfast? Simply phenomenal, fresh, varied, and served with an ocean breeze. A truly exceptional experience from start to finish.

Set along the white sandy beach on the East Coast of Mauritius in Belle Mare, The Residence offers elegant rooms with free Wi-Fi. It features an outdoor swimming pool and spa centre with a sauna.
Guest review
The hotel does not occupy very big territory, however there are lots of space on the beach, you can choose either surrounding with the palms or the white sand. The sand is very soft like a powder and not hot. Kayaks, paddles, catamarans, water ski, etc - all are free of charge. Great experience was to try water ski! There is cold refreshing water on the beach during the day free of charge. Beach towels are soft and new. The ebb and flow of water in the ocean was not significant during our stay, you can easily swim during the day. Seaside is perfect with soft sand, no stones, no fish, good for kids.
The room is very big, we had 2 rooms and got free of charge upgrade for the ocean view. The personnel is really very kind, very kind. Always ready to help and solve any problem. At the end of our stay we were presented with the bottle of champagne from the manager. There is consierge service, they can book any restaurant, excursions, taxi, etc. There is a big library in the hotel, very nice massages and body treatment, free of charge sauna, hammam and gym. Although giving good humidity, hammam looks a bit out of date.
Every evening there are wisdom affirmations near the bed, I collect all of them and took with me.
The hotel and the rooms are in colonial style, although looking fresh, very nice towels and bed linens. Very clean all around.
There are no restaurants outside the hotel, therefore if you eat 3 times per day it’s better to order HB/all-inclusive at once.
Food was good, combination of Asian and European cuisine, wide selection of fruits, pan cakes, gems, eggs, etc, although being enough I cannot say there were a lot of vegetables.
The location of the hotel is quite far from other attractions, we had a boat tour to the nearest waterfall, dolphins and monkeys and it was great.
The weather in May was not stable, one day was all raining, others not hot but very comfortable, rains are very short and mostly at night. Water in the ocean was perfect.

The room is spacious, has a large balcony, a beautiful view, and there is a kitchen and kitchenware.
The beach is only for sunbathing and relaxation. If you want to swim, you will have to walk or drive to another beach. A very good beach can be reached in 5-7 minutes by car. There are two types of breakfast: English and Continental. The choice is not large.

The staff is extremely friendly and always willing to help in any way they can! It's a perfect spot for exploring the north coast, with plenty of parking space available for your car.
The breakfast selection isn’t very large, but it was more than enough to start the day off right. Eggs are prepared to your liking, which is a great bonus!
We’ll definitely visit again if we're ever in Mauritius.

La Maison d'Eté Hotel by NEWMARK features an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a private beach area and terrace in Poste Lafayette.
Guest review
The hotel is a real dreamlike boutique hotel. Just WOW!
Very quiet and very peaceful! The sea view is truly mesmerizing all day long and has spectacular sunrises! We have even been so lucky to see humpback whales passing by daily at only 100 to 200 meters in front of the hotel!
The restaurant is great, and the food is excellent with a great à-la-carte menu with enough options to choose from with even a 3-course menu that changes every day. As we have eaten in the restaurant every evening, we can vouch for the fact that the menu does not get boring. As stated by other guests, some dishes require paying a half board supplement, however that is completely appropriate as the quality is appropriate.
The room cleaning staff is amazing with a tidy room every day. Next, whilst having dinner in the evening, the staff even refresh your room and bed + leaving a lovely local chocolate treat!
But what stands out the most, that is the staff!!! What an amazing staff La Maison d'Eté Hotel has! Impeccable service, very kind and very helpful! It is due to the staff that this hotel is checking all the boxes!
To all the staff, thank you for making our stay very memorable! From the hotel reception, Reema, being extra-ordinary polite and courteous, to the cleaning staff doing an outstanding job, the staff at the beach being very helpful to all the kind staff in the restaurant and bar!
Specials thanks to:
Dinesh, what a warm person you are! Truly a warm-hearted helpful person that made our Holiday in Mauritius even extra special. Your guidance into exploring Mauritius have been very helpful.
Abhi, thanks for your continues humour! You make the bar the right place to have one of your great cocktails with pleasure, fun and lots of laughter! All the bartenders were great and made the best cocktails!
Picasso Raj, thanks to your amazing painting, we now have a memory of Mauritius hanging in our home.
Yasir, Erik, Anaïs, Estelle, and all the rest, thank you!
