Le Meridien Ile Maurice

Right on the beach in the northwestern part of Mauritius you will find the hotel Le Meridien Ile Maurice.

Le Meridien Ile Maurice stands out for being a five-star hotel with lots of soul. Five stars are only given when every box is ticked – on top of which you will find cosiness and charm – and something for everyone.

The hotel is particularly suitable for families with children as well as for couples.

Families can enjoy all the activities for children and the young at heart, while couples without children can be pampered in the Nirvana wing, which is reserved for adults. This wing has its own pool with a pool bar, and all Nirvana guests also receive a bottle of wine on arrival, an in-room fruit basket and a sunset cocktail. Nirvana guests can also enjoy their own breakfast restaurant – but are, of course, welcome to use the large restaurant as well.

Families with children, on the other hand, benefit from the fact that children under 11 can stay for free in the same room as their parents.

There are 261 rooms, all of which have a view of either the sea or the large tropical gardens surrounding the hotel. All the rooms have a private balcony or terrace. They also have air conditioning, a TV and a minibar.

There are four restaurants and a wealth of activities on offer, ranging from a spa, kids club, water sports, diving centre and a well-equipped gym.

The hotel is located directly next to the chalk-white beach, but if you would rather jump into a pool, there are three of them. The layout of the hotel is quite ingenious: the entire length of the beach has been utilised, so you are never far from either the pool or the sea.

The small town of Grand Baie is only a 20-minute drive away, so you have every opportunity to explore the local life and cuisine if you wish.
