Hotel Info
A luxury five star deluxe hotel in Mauritius, shining with the vibrant energy and hospitality of authentic island life. Proudly situated in the quaint seaside village of Belle Mare on the east coast of Mauritius, against a backdrop of the Indian Ocean LUX* Belle Mare Resort & Villas welcome you with a different approach to island life.
Enjoy the view of pristine white beaches and a sparkling lagoon from your traditionally thatched villa or suite at this exceptional hotel in Mauritius. Re-designed by international designer Kelly Hoppen, the resort is a modern take on traditional Mauritian hospitality, with a discreet yet vibrant LUX* touch.
A statement swimming pool, one of the islands largest, 2000 m2 with a separate area for children, is at the heart of this 5-star resort as you wander past various tantalising restaurants. Take a dip or be tempted by a fresh home-made ice cream.
The spa is a knockout too with highly qualified therapists who want you to leave feeling your best whether through treatments, yoga or Tai Chi. And we haven’t even mentioned that the coastline feels as though you have it yourselves: crystal-clear water, with a turquoise glint and sand as soft and white as you’ll ever know.

ACCOMMODATION

Nothing, we think, is better than our beautifully-designed rooms and suites. Ingeniously designed to be meditative and escapist, they owe their fresh, breezy design to the crisp linens, the woven rugs, the white shutters, the stunning wallpaper, the standalone matte white bathtubs and tropical showers, and the sundeck, that in-between space between the beach and your bedroom.
