Mauritius Holidays

If you’re near a window, look south-eastwards for a moment. There, 6,000 miles over the horizon, deep in the Indian Ocean, lie the blindingly white palm-edged beaches, blue lagoons, coral reefs, emerald sugar-cane fields and purple mountain peaks of Mauritius. Another world? Yes. But in just 12 hours you could be there on one of our mauritius holidays.

When it comes to today’s faraway holiday preference, a holiday in Mauritius is definitely up there with the leaders. Nature has done its bit, of course, with exotic tropical scenes that will etch themselves on your memory. A stylish gallery of world-class resort hotels adds all the essential creature comforts and leisure pursuits. Scattered along the 205-mile coastline and nestling contentedly beside picture-book beaches, each has its own character. You’ll feel instantly at home. That’s what Mauritius does best.

Island Adventure Mauritius Holidays

Mountains, deep ravines and gorges offer short hikes and mountain bike trips (a chance to see some endemic birdlife and wild monkeys) – while, offshore, supervised sea-kayaking excursions can be booked.

Exploring by car is a popular way to discover the island’s lush and often lofty interior. Don’t miss the waterfront at Port Louis and do visit the National Park in the beautiful interior.

Nightlife & Party with Locals Mauritius Holidays

Most larger hotels (and many smaller ones) ensure that their guests can enjoy live band entertainment and dancing on-site, with regular Sega dance events. If you want more options to hand then the liveliest area to stay is Grand Baie, with its restaurants, bars and discos.

Gourmet Cuisine & Dining Out

French, Chinese, Creole, and Indian influences have all gone into the exotic Mauritius culinary pot! Whether your main course leans toward Indian curries or Chinese sweet-and-sour fish, they and a host of exotic new flavours await the jaded palate.

A colourful ethnic mix means you can look forward to some wonderful palate, pleasing cuisine.
