Whether you are seeking dawn-to-dusk relaxation or wet-and-wild watersports, or a combination of the two, Mauritius has something to suit all types of travellers!
First off, we have Constance Belle Mare Plage. This luxurious resort covers no fewer than 15 hectares of tropical gardens adjoining 2km of beautiful coastline, in addition to two golf courses occupying approximately 140 hectares! So if you like your vacation accommodation super-size, this is a fantastic option for you.
The resort includes an excellent assortment of restaurants and bars, providing a wonderful range of dining and drinking experiences. There are three pools too, as well as lounges, a kids club, and a shopping arcade, all in beach-chic style. Guest accommodation comprises a very grand total of 256 rooms, from Prestige Room to Presidential Villa. These have plenty of creature comforts and amazing views out to sea from a furnished terrace or balcony. Just chilling in your room or on the beach, chatting or reading, is a lovely way to pass the time here. However, if you fancy a bit of action, Constance Belle Mare Plage has a diving centre, a fitness centre, and plenty of activities you can enjoy for free – waterskiing, windsurfing, snorkelling, kayaking, tennis, and table tennis, to name just a few! Pay a little extra, and you can have a go at scuba diving, parasailing, and deep-sea fishing – and you can set off on some truly memorable lagoon excursions. For the ultimate in relaxation, book a session in the resort’s spa. There is nothing like a Mauritius massage!
The second top property for groups visiting this idyllic island, is just down the coast from Constance – LUX* Belle Mare. Recently refurbished, with its suites and villas redesigned by Kelly Hoppen, this resort is a hot contender for the most stylish property on Mauritius! Like Constance, it is set in extensive grounds featuring tropical gardens and beautiful beaches. It is also close to the picturesque village of Belle Mare.
LUX* Belle Mare has four restaurants and lots of places where you can enjoy a drink or simply unwind. There is a kids club, a teens club, a superb spa, and a massive swimming pool! Accommodation options are seemingly endless – eight types of suite and three categories of villa, all positioned within the gorgeous gardens. As at Constance, everything comes with oodles of mod cons – air conditioning, flatscreen television, DVD player, IDD telephone, complimentary Wi-Fi, mini bar. You have a private balcony or terrace here too, offering space to relax in between beach time or awesome activities! LUX* has its own boathouse and diving centre, providing windsurfing, waterskiing, snorkelling, kayaking, and boat trips for free, with fishing and diving at additional cost. Another non-complimentary yet highly recommended activity is swimming with dolphins, in the west-coast bays of Black River and Tamarin! Hiking and biking are available too – a great option if you would like to get out and see the island.
Finally, we head south, to Heritage Awali Golf & Spa Resort. This is another super-luxurious property, situated on the Domaine de Bel Ombre. Last year (2015), it was welcomed into the TripAdvisor Hall of Fame. With not only a golf course and two spas but also its very own nature reserve, comprising over 1,300 hectares of lush vegetation, waterfalls, and wooded hills, Heritage Awali comes very highly recommended!
The resort boasts four restaurants and guests can also dine at all other Heritage eateries in the area. This certainly keeps foodies happy! There are some fabulous bars too, plus two swimming pools, a gym, a salon, and a library. Accommodation options range from Deluxe Rooms and Deluxe Ocean View Rooms to the princely Private Villa, with its own pool. There is access for disabled people – just get in touch with us for more details. Guests receive free slippers and bathrobes! There is complimentary Wi-Fi too, and a whole host of other comforts. Activities at Heritage Awali include waterskiing, windsurfing, snorkelling, kayaking, boat trips, bike tours, beach volleyball, darts, giant chess, and archery. You can pay to hire golf equipment, take tennis lessons, and even have a go on a Segway!
