Mauritius Holidays

Luxury holidays to Mauritius

Mauritius is well known for its sugar cane and the iconic dodo that became extinct due to its friendly nature.  On luxury holidays in Mauritius, you can enjoy landscapes with stretching cane fields, small villages and white sandy beaches with secluded breezy bays and magnificent seascapes.  Mauritius is from the Mascarene Archipelago which was an ancient land mass that long ago joined Asia and Africa.  Southwest of Mauritius lies Reunion Island and the jagged beauty of its volcanic landscape and 560km away is the island of Rodrigues circled by other tiny islets – all part of this idyllic destination for quality holidays.

Small but perfectly formed

Mauritius is very small covering just 1,865 square kilometres but is densely populated and is popular with holidaymakers for luxury holidays.  There is an excellent airport, dreamy beaches and resorts bedecked in flowers welcoming visitors from around the globe to their quality holidays.  Inland there are resplendent mountains to be seen and if you are lucky you may snatch a glimpse of a Java deer.  Mauritian scenery is simply stunning with lagoons, bamboo thickets, glistening waterfalls and pretty Creole buildings.

Luxury holidays to Mauritius offer diversity and beauty

The name Mauritius will conjure images of luxurious indulgence and magnificent extravagance.  While those luxury holidays that boast cobalt-blue seas, luxury hotels and sandy beaches can often be limited in activities other than swimming and sunbathing, in Mauritius you will have plenty to do.  Quality holidays in Mauritius offer a wealth of historic points of interest, the culture is diverse and the scenery varies dramatically. However this island’s best asset is the laid back charm of the welcoming and warm locals making luxury holidays to Mauritius unforgettable.

It is easy to find a quiet getaway here on quality holidays but you will always be within easy distance of the bustling mercantile capital Port Louis.  There are vibrant garment markets to visit in the towns within the Central Plateau such as Curepipe and Quatre Bornes. 

Beaches and top cuisine

If you are a sun worshipper you will be blown away by the beaches.  There are spectacular sand fringed lagoons and pretty picturesque islands to explore in addition to the popular stretches of wide sandy beaches on luxury holidays on the island.  The cuisine here is a joyous mix of Indian, Chinese, French and African influences which can be enjoyed whilst listening to the vibrant séga music. 

It’s impossible not to be swept away by the infectiousness of the locals and their love of parties.  Luxury holidays to Mauritius are truly our idea of a paradise on earth at Personal Travel Advisors.  Speak to one of our advisors to learn more about quality holidays in Mauritius.
