ISLAND PARADISE
Little wonder Mauritius is a go-to destination for weddings, vow renewals and honeymoons. Lying some 1,000 miles off the coast of East Africa, this is the place where dreams of luxuriating on a castaway island in the middle of the Indian Ocean become reality. Not only does Mauritius claim some of the world’s most exquisite beaches, but it also boasts rich coral reefs and a balmy climate that gives it year-round appeal. Not to mention locals renowned for their warmth and hospitality.
Behind these golden sands lies a land carpeted almost entirely in swaying fields of sugar cane, with occasional patches of tea and tobacco. The interior is well worth exploring, particularly the forested highlands and valleys around Plaine Champagne and the Black River Gorge. Your tailor-made holiday could also include big game fishing, or a visit to Pamplemousses and its beautiful, 300-year-old botanic garden featuring gigantic water lilies, Java deer and magical trees.
What Mauritius really does best are hotels. The island boasts a truly stellar portfolio of first-class accommodation with facilities, service and cuisine – from Michelin to traditional Creole – of the highest calibre. Enjoy a dip in your private pool, romantic dinners on the beach and relaxing like never before in one of the glorious spas for which the island’s hotels are famed.
However you like to unwind, Mauritius will help you do it. Speak to one of our experts today to learn more.
