Mauritius, Indian Ocean

Virgin rating

The hotel

After a makeover by London designer Kelly Hoppen, this hotel is the epitome of cool, occupying a dream location overlooking a pristine stretch of beach washed by sparkling azure waters. It’s also home to one of the island’s largest swimming pools, take a dip or treat yourself to a fresh, low-fat ice cream packed with island fruits from the 'ici' vendors. You'll also find some quirky LUX* touches, such as their own blend of coffee roasted on site, a pop-up restaurant and the beach cinema. LUX* Belle Mare offers a range of suites & private villas to tempt you, all beautifully designed. Upgrade to a Pool View Junior Suite overlooking the swimming pool or to a Romantic Junior Suite for a quieter location. For a really special occasion, the Honeymoon Suite is nothing short of sublime or if you’re travelling with the children the Family Suites are very spacious. It’s the little touches here that make all the difference, a British red phone box, for example, a novel way to call home! Exciting amenities include an impressive list of water sports with probably something new to try every day of your holiday. As for restaurants, you’ve several to choose from. MONDO specialises in worldwide cuisine, whilst at Amari by Vineet, you can enjoy Indian delights fit for a maharajah.

I just got back from Mauritius and I'm still dreaming about it! I stayed at the Lux Belle Mare hotel on the east side, and it was like being in paradise. The beach was pure magic - white sand, clear water, you know the drill. The hotel itself was really nice, with that whole tropical vibe. The food was amazing! They have a bunch of different restaurants, and everything I tried was delicious. I’m still craving that curry I had! The spa was also incredible. Getting a massage with the sound of the waves was pure bliss. My wife and I were on our honeymoon, and the hotel made us feel really special with their honeymoon package. Jennifer from the honeymoon department was super helpful. The staff were all so nice and friendly. Elvis, Guest Relations Manager made sure we are happy and took care of us even outside the hotel, was the best! And the housekeepers were amazing, they always made our room look like something out of a magazine with those towel animals and flowers. All in all, Lux Belle Mare is the perfect place to relax and forget about everything. I’d totally recommend it to anyone looking for a vacation. Read less
