Your Destination —
Due to its history, influences from Chinese, Indian, French and African cultures are all present in day to day island life, from cuisine to music and religion. It is surely this melting pot of cultures, which makes the island and its inhabitants so warm friendly and welcoming. The resort is situated in the village of Trou-aux-Biches, famed for its long stretch of white sandy beach on the north west coast of Mauritius. From here, you are also just 5 km from the lively town of Grand Bay if you fancy exploring some nightlife.
