A road trip is the most gratifying path to discovery. The discovery of hidden secrets, of the unexpected beauty of landscapes, of a day in the life of a local. While lounging by the pool at a luxury resort truly is the quintessential escape, you will only scratch the surface of what Mauritius has to offer. Instead, why not take control of the wheel and explore the island at your own pace? Go on, hit the road: as you follow this detailed itinerary we have crafted and our recommendations of can’t-miss landmarks, leave the rest to the open road – possibility is the hallmark of Mauritius.

The ever-blooming Hospitality industry and a competitive landscape demand that hotels keep up with the times, all while preserving their hallmark. It may be a matter of adding seasonal dishes to a menu, designing a new concept, or changing the fabric of the sunbeds. It may also mean closing the hotel for a few months to fully revamp the interiors and shared spaces - this is the case of Heritage Le Telfair and Veranda Paul et Virginie, which will reopen in September (we are excited!)

Ravi Kanhye isn’t yet forty and is already at the head of the five restaurants of Heritage Awali. The talented Chef, who has been awarded the prestigious title of Disciple d’Escoffier, managed to steal away from the hotel’s busy kitchen to discuss the ins and outs of the industry, what he eats when he’s off work and the use of technology in cooking today.

Inventive matchboxes, pens, pretty stationery, miniature designer toiletries… These are just some of the things hotel aficionados collect. In a way they constitute memories of fabulous holidays spent on the Mediterranean coast, in Indonesian jungles and in bustling cities. A glance at the logo on the pen conjures up the things we love about hotels. Who can resist reaching into the mini-bar? Why is it that the candy bar tastes so much better when you’re wrapped in a cozy bathrobe? How many places can you think of that don’t have lines at the check-in? Is there a greater luxury than being able to order breakfast late into the night? Who doesn’t love the sound of Room Service knocking on your door? Simply put, we love hotels (there’s a reason #robelife is so popular on Instagram). At Heritage Resorts, great service is a given. Here are just a few of the services we promise you’ll love.

Forever seeking creativity and original ideas, Veranda Paul et Virginie Hotel & Spa has expanded its offer destined for couples with an array of activities for an even more romantic and adventurous holidays… Here’s a preview!
