Your Destination —
Shanti Maurice Hotel is located in the south coast of Mauritius at St. Felix and is approximately 25 miles south-east of Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, which is situated at Plaisance.
On the beautiful south coast of Mauritius, Shanti Maurice Mauritius has one of the island's best beaches. With pristine white sand stretching down to the clear turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, the beach can be viewed from all suites and villas.
Coral reefs circle the sand and clusters of black volcanic rock create pools as the tide goes out. Between the still green mountains and the crystal-clear sea, the curved beach is the perfect place to curl up under a parasol with a good book, and a classic cocktail.

Whether you are interested in dolphin watching to kayaking, cultural activities, outdoor pursuits, water sports or relaxing in gorgeous surroundings with a picnic, the hotel is more than happy to prepare a tailor-made programme to suit your specific needs.
