Expect to be welcomed warmly on the east coast of Mauritius, where turquoise waters meet powder-white sands. An easy-going getaway favoured by families, it’s a destination that really does have it all. Sit back, switch off and simply spend time together, perhaps starting the day with the Aperitivo Bar’s healthy elixirs and a spot of morning yoga, or making a splash thanks to complimentary water sports. Leisurely lounging would naturally be next on the agenda, whether down by the shoreline or adding to the undercurrent of excitement around the pool. Sitting at the heart of the resort, it’s an idyll of idleness for adults keeping a watchful eye over lively little ones. 

Curated and sophisticated, the spa offers another avenue to sink into serenity. Centred on the five elements of earth, air, water, fire and space, treatments are tailored to each guest, giving a truly personalised route to relaxation.

Calming complete, retreat to the soft whites and butter yellows of your suite, designed in a beach house style to prioritise space and privacy, plus a few subtle hints towards the paradisical destination that lies outside – as if you could ever forget. As evening approaches the all-important question of where to dine arises, though with five restaurants on location, there’s an array of options to please even the pickiest of eaters. We’d recommend Amari by Vineet for a master blend of Indian and Mauritian flavours by a Michelin-starred chef; Duck Laundry for a moody setting of Chinese cuisine, or all-day Mondo for a casual affair of cooking demonstrations. And when families have turned in for the night, couples delight in the Ibiza beach bar setting of Beach Rouge, where drinks are soundtracked by DJ sets bathed in the red glow of sunset.
