Luxury colonial-style resort on a peaceful beach in Le Morne
The St. Regis Mauritius has shingle-roofed colonial bungalows placed throughout and pretty tropical grounds with fountains. Covered pathways lead to an the main Manor House and its striking wooden antique-inspired staircase. A unique area is the library, which has a selection of books surrounded by comfy chairs, and an adjacent glass-ceilinged reading room with patio furniture. This gated property provides a luxurious, mostly quiet vacation, but families with children are common. Guests also commonly complain about service not reaching five-pearl quality, especially during peak season.
Location
On a quiet beach in Le Morne, near kitesurfing and hiking
Tucked in Le Morne, this hotel enjoys a quiet location on a beautiful uncrowded stretch of sand. It's a six-minute walk to One Eye, an area packed with kitesurfers. Otherwise, this location feels removed and there's little in walking distance. Nightlife in La Gaulette is 10 minutes away by car. Le Morne Brabant, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is 15 minutes' drive, while the Black River Gorges National Park is about 30 minutes by car. The Rhumerie de Chamarel rum distillery and family-friendly Curious Corner of Chamarel are a 20-minute drive from the hotel. Port Louis, with the Blue Penny Museum (where the collection includes rare stamps) and the 19th-century Jummah Masjid mosque is one hour and 15 minutes by car. Driving to the SSR International Airport takes one hour and 15 minutes. There's free parking for guests who have rental cars.
Rooms
Rooms and suites have luxury, island-style designs with sea or garden views from balconies or patios.
Private entrances lead to first- and second-floor rooms that feature upscale cottage-style decor. A soothing palette of beige and white is accented with pale mint green. The rattan furniture, framed flower pictures, light wooden ceilings with fans, and woven baskets combine for a luxe yet homey feel. Rooms feel airy with floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto patios or balconies facing the garden or ocean. Free butler service and Illy espresso machines (in most rooms) are luxe touches. All rooms include minibars and flat-screen TVs with DVD players, plus wardrobes with safes and ironing facilities. Free basic Wi-Fi is provided, but it can be spotty.
Standout bathrooms feature big soaking tubs, separate mosaic-tiled showers, and dual stone basins. St. Regis Remede bath products, bathrobes, and hairdryers are provided. Most suites have dressing areas, lounges or separate living rooms, and dining rooms. Luxurious suites are available, including the four-bedroom St. Regis Villa that has pitched wooden ceilings, a lounge with Wii and Playstation consoles, an outdoor bar, three private plunge pools, and a full kitchen.
