Short Reviews On Resorts & Hotels In Mauritius

Floating in the warm, crystal blue waters away from the coast of mainland South Africa, Mauritius is an island guaranteed to enchant the spirit, uplift the souls and leave every visitor feeling as though they are part of only a select few? The answer is certainly yes! Besides luxury hotels, friendly faces and life-changing encounters wait at every turn, with a multitude of traditions both past and present culminating into a one of a kind location unlike any other the world over. From the countless species of tortoises found at the Baie aux Tortues to the Balaclava Ruins, historic Hindu temples and everything in between, Mauritius not only offers the chance of a holiday of a lifetime, but guarantees such without exception.

Mauritius is something of a welcome example of a tropical island retreat that is accessible to a wide variety of travelers, rather than just the overly affluent. There are several exquisite hotels in Mauritius providing unforgettable stays. The aptly named "One and Only" in Belle Mare lives up to its handle in the best possible manner, with breathtaking architecture, luxury lodgings and quite simply the most accommodating and knowledgeable hotel staff to be found anywhere in Mauritius. For honeymooners, the One and Only is often cited as quite simply the most romantic hotel on the planet, far surpassing its meager 5-star status. The Four Season Hotel continue their worldwide reputation for excellence by way of a stunning resort at Anahita, offering all of the quality expected from such a brand and much, much more. Each villa of the hotel complex includes its own pool, huge terrace, al-fresco shower and private garden, along with privileged access to the on-site 18-hole championship golf course designed by none other than Ernie Els.

The great news for those considering traveling to this island with limited funds is that hotels in Mauritius are far from limited to expensive accommodation packages. The Sands Resort at Flic En Flac is a perfect example of just how possible it is to offer unbridled luxury without charging the proverbial arm and leg. This deluxe 4-star hotel boasts 93 sumptuous rooms, numerous spa centers, restaurants and its only private, secluded beach for guests only. The setting of the hotel complex is also a stunning example of traditional architecture of Mauritius. Even cheaper still is the Bay Hotel located in Black River, which boasts an incredibly tranquil location by a reef-protected bay. The food in particular brings back repeat customers every year, with sumptuous multi-course banquets offered each night as a standard part of the package.

Mauritius is an islander nation which seems to have accomplished something above and beyond the capabilities of most others, by offering the chance for an exceptionally wide demographic to truly enjoy this miracle of nature for themselves. It is simply impossible tourists not to fall in love with Mauritius after making their very first steps off from the plane, wherein it soon becomes strikingly apparent that no postcards and brochures in the world can begin to do a single square inch of the country justice. Whether it be for a romantic honeymoon, voyage of exploration or simply an escape from the rat-race to a genuine slice of heaven on Earth, hotels of Mauritius are with certitude the perfect holiday destinations.
