Tucked in the north eastern corner of the island, in the village of Grand Gaube, this calming hotel is inspired by the ancient Chinese philosophy of feng shui, which advocates living in harmony with the environment.
Each of the rooms and suites reflects one of the five elements, metal, earth, fire, water and wood, while the spacious villa at the far end of the hotel mingles them all. All feature private sun terraces and balconies facing the ocean, some with waterbeds and others with open-air baths. The Presidential Villa also offers a private swimming pool and beach, outdoor Jacuzzi, barbecue, separate dining area and a second bedroom with bunk beds, ideal for children.
Indeed, younger guests are well catered for at the resort with The Little Mermaid childrens’ club for 3 to 11 year olds and a teen club for older children. Adult activities include tennis and water sports, while the Thalaspa offers a huge range of therapies, from massages and reiki to yoga and tai chi classes. The spa also has as a seawater pool and well equipped gym.
The feng shui theme continues into the restaurants, where colours and flavours delicately balance yin and yang in East meets West fusion dishes or traditional Mauritian fare. After dinner, relax in one of the three bars, enjoy a glass of bubbly at the Champagne and Caviar Bar, browse the walk-in wine cellar; or perhaps enjoy a game of mah jong in the Cigar Bar or library. |
