The Oberoi Mauritius
OVERVIEW
Just 15 kilometres from Port Louis you’ll find The Oberoi Mauritius, nestled within 20 acres of lush green landscaped gardens on the shores of natural marine park Turtle Bay, one of the island’s loveliest beachfronts. Here, Asia and Africa meet with a twist of Europe for good measure. The resort’s 71 thatched-roof stone villas and pavilions are dotted throughout the grounds amongst Indonesian sculptures and water features, reflecting the natural beauty of the area and instilling a sense of calm.
With 600 metres of chalky white sand beaches, a vibrant coral reef and a number of monuments dating all the way back to the French Colonial period, The Oberoi Mauritius is steeped in both beauty and history and has something to offer even the most discerning traveller. If you’re feeling the need to completely surrender to pampering we can highly recommend the spa, where serene therapists will pummel away the stresses and strains of life back home in a vigorous massage.
Whether you want to relax by the stunning infinity pool, explore the island’s history, feast on fine cuisine or just bathe in the turquoise ocean, The Oberoi Mauritius has everything you need for an idyllic island break.
