Luxury hotel holiday St Regis Mauritius Mauritius

Discover the five-star St Regis Mauritius Resort sandwiched between the dramatic Le Morne Brabant Mountain and an indulgent stretch of white sand beach. Beyond, the dazzling Indian Ocean beckons, marvellously emblazoned with a spectrum of startling natural hues, from the shock blue depths to cool aquamarine shallows. The two-story colonial style structure stands level with exotic palms in a settling that is utterly undisturbed. The building itself is quite laidback, its colonial architecture engineered to maximise the natural environment, with lazy verandas and exposed balconies welcoming brisk sea breezes. An air of effortless luxury prevails inside, and interiors are at once refined and casual, with ceiling fans, a mix of colonial and exotic features, a soothing colour scheme and comfortable furnishings.Each of the 173 guestrooms and suites maintain the same level of style and comfort. As is standard of the St Regis experience, each block is served by a butler who attends to guests' personal needs and desires.A number of locations are available within the grounds for evening meals and beverages. The Manor House sits in front of the swimming pool and houses Le Manoir Dining Room, with its mix of Mauritian and classic French cuisine. International dishes can be sought at Simply India, presided over by the Michelin-starred celebrity chef Atul Kochhar, and the Floating Market restaurant, with its south-east Asian fare. A more casual dining experience can be had at The Boathouse Bar and Grill, a beachside spot that serves light meals in the open air. End the day in The 1904 Bar, which has the power to transport guests back in time thanks to its classic elegance and colonial style. Wicker lounging chairs and exotic pot plants occupy this vast veranda, which proves a stylish spot to end the day.The aim at the St Regis Mauritius Resort is to offer a stripped-down lifestyle experience that allows guests to indulge. Bask in glorious sunshine beside sea or pool, seek relaxation at Iridium Spa, find tranquillity in the library or be transformed in the hair salon. For more active guests, wind surfing and kite surfing are a big draw at the St Regis Mauritius, where buffeting winds create the perfect conditions for such pursuits 300 days of the year.
