Virgin Holidays View
The newly refurbished Emeraude Beach Hotel with its special “Emeraude Inclusive formula” offers a supremely comfortable holiday base in a fabulous location, overlooking one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. There are also verdant gardens to wander in, creating a very relaxed ambience indeed. Thatched-roofed bungalows are grouped in small clusters throughout the resort with nature’s beauty and the Mauritian art de vivre a dominant theme of decor. All modern amenities are included, ensuring a real home-from-home experience. As a change from the beach, there’s 2 lovely pools to laze by complete with pool bar serving delicious pizzas at lunchtime. During the evening, head to the main restaurant with its lavish buffet to indulge in fresh seafood and other delights. Whether you’re new to water sports or more experienced, there’s plenty to tempt you here with kitesurfing, canoeing, glass bottom boat, pedal boat and snorkelling on offer. There’s also diving nearby, water skiing, catamaran sailing and horse riding. After a busy day spent snoozing on the beach or indulging in one of several activities, get your toes tapping to some live music (twice a week), a local band not only plays popular tunes but may treat you to a lively rendition of the Sega, an old folklore tale!
