LUX* Le Morne

Mauritius, Indian Ocean

Virgin rating

The hotel

With a stunning sunset location, flanked by UNESCO World Heritage Site Le Morne Peak, this LUX* resort also overlooks an endless stretch of golden beach. Sheltered from trade winds and on the quiet side of the island, it’s an ideal place to catch up on some R&R. Landscaped gardens surround you, dotted with five swimming pools — select your favourite and pull up a lounger. Romantic in feel, the hotel is also ideal for families, with a superb kids' club offering activities such as treasure hunts, art classes and tennis lessons. Water sports abound, try your hand at snorkelling, water-skiing or kite-surfing perhaps. If you prefer dry land, no worries — team up with friends for a game of volleyball or hire a bike to explore the lush interior. Come sundown, the pace picks up slightly. Head to The Bar for cocktails and live music, or while away the hours in East, feasting on delicious Thai cuisine. Set right beside the ocean, The Beach is also highly recommended, serving up Italian fare in a relaxed setting.

Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here, we found the room to be comfy and clean with plenty of space, the sea is the most beautiful turquoise and the sand white We only ate at the kitchen restaurant twice, and though it was fine it didn't wow us, but that is possibly due to the lack of effort in trying on our part, however the food at both the Kuwaii and Beach restaurants is very good indeed, so we spent most meals at the Beach eating great stuff like Ceviche, Crab linguine and Beef cheeks We found the staff to very friendly and helpful, with one going above and beyond to help, thank you Megane you were fantastic We shall return Marc and Caroline Uk Read less

We feel very fortunate to have visited this beautiful hotel twice, once in 2014 and our visit last month, October 2024 - celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary and my birthday. From the moment we arrived we were made so incredibly welcome, nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. We had booked a Prestige Junior Suite which had a beachfront location, own terrace with double sun lounger, sofa and table. It was stunning! The room itself was really cosy, we had a lovely large bathroom with huge bath, twin sinks, indoor shower, dressing area and lobby and we particularly loved the outdoor shower which we used every morning. Room was well equipped, lovely amenities, umbrella, gowns, slippers, stocked mini bar, snacks, a lovely beach bag and hat! We never had any issues getting sunbeds on the beach and were sometimes the first people on the beach at 9am after we had been to the gym. We loved the large cushions on the beach, the fluffy towels, drinks station (water) and comfortable sunbeds. Big shout out to the fabulous beach guys, nothing was ever too much trouble and they came to say hi daily and take our drinks orders. On my birthday they gave me a coconut with flowers and a straw and had written a happy birthday message on the side of the coconut which was such a kind gesture and appreciated. Food in the restaurants was excellent, we loved East (Thai) and went 3 times during our visit. Beach was excellent as was the buffet. Loved the breakfasts. We were fortunate to do the Gazebo dinner for my birthday. This was, without doubt, a real pinch me moment and absolutely amazing! We did a trip out one day and booked one of the hotel’s cabs. Whilst we had a good few hours we didn't so much rate our driver, we felt he was a bit huffy and was getting a touch impatient so we cut the day short and went back to the hotel. What we did see however we thoroughly enjoyed. We flew from the UK BHX to DXB to Mauritius with Emirates, cant fault the flights at all. As our flight left BHX late we were literally running to our next gate and had 50mins before our connection down to Mauritius. How on earth Emirates managed to transfer luggage in that short space of time is beyond me, so well done Emirates. We would without doubt return to Lux le Morne tomorrow if we could. It is, in our opinion, honestly one of the most beautiful hotels we have visited in the most peaceful of settings. Whilst it may be a little quiet for some people, we embraced this, a pause from our busy daily lives. It ticked pretty much every single box for us on our list of holiday must haves. Highly recommended. Read less

We had lunch at Lux Le Morne and loved the experience! Yogesh and his team provided excellent service, making us feel welcome even though we weren’t staying at the resort. The food was delicious, and the friendly, accommodating atmosphere made it even better. Highly recommend! -PS We ate the chicken burger and the ceviche
