EnquireThis all-inclusive beachside resort is situated along the northwest coast of Mauritius and is particularly family friendly. It occupies a convenient location roughly midway between the island country’s capital city of Port Louis and the village of Grand Baie, a popular tourist destination. The superb facilities include a spa and a fitness centre, and one of the more quirky features of this lovely property are the ‘swim-up rooms’, namely bedrooms that can be accessed directly from the ocean-facing infinity pool. The 18-hole Mont Choisy golf course is not far away, and it’s worth making the journey to the Photography Museum of Mauritius, the beautiful and historic Pamplemousse Gardens and the historic ‘Aventure du Sucre’ museum where you’ll learn all about the three hundred year history of Mauritius’ sugar industry.
The accommodation comprises nine different room categories ranging from standard rooms, to suites, two-bedroom family apartments and swim-up rooms that open out onto the swimming pool. All rooms face the ocean and offer picturesque views and amenities include air conditioning, tea and coffee making facilities, a minibar and a TV with satellite channels. En-suite bathrooms have a separate shower and bathtub.
There are four on-site restaurants offering an array of culinary experiences, from international cuisine and Italian specialties, to fresh seafood and sumptuous steaks - there’s something to suit all tastes. The list of available activities is extensive, with many of the options included in the rate. Some of the many land-based activities include beach volleyball, tennis, football and even mountain biking. For those looking to get out on the sea, there’s water skiing, stand-up paddle boarding, kayaking and snorkelling. The resort has its very own fully certified diving academy offering dive sessions and lessons for an additional cost. There’s also a fitness centre with state-of-the-art equipment and a spa with a range of enticing treatments on its menu. Keen golfers will be pleased to learn the resort offers exclusive to the Mont Choisy Le Golf 18-hole course, which is just ten minutes away.
Families are very welcome and there are several family-designated accommodation options to choose from such as the Family Apartment which comes with two bedrooms and can comfortably accommodate two adults, two children and one baby. The ‘Le Superbe’ restaurant has an area especially for families, there’s also a fully equipped baby care room and two kids clubs: one for children aged three to eleven and one aimed more at teenagers. Both of these clubs offer exciting programmes packed with engaging, age-appropriate activities and experiences including arts and crafts, movie screenings, sandcastle building competitions, disco nights and educational visits to the lagoon.
Thank you, Lisa! Our trip was wonderful even with the weather disruption. We loved seeing so many different parts of the country, meeting people and experiencing the culture. The desert was surely a highlight for our boys and the creativity and artisanship of everything from food to crafts were a highlight for me. A special shout out to our guide and driver, they became a special part of our trip and we will forever be grateful for meeting them and learning from them. I cannot believe we had to wait three years for this adventure but it was certainly worth the wait! Thanks for all your help building the itinerary, modifying it and troubleshooting during our stay.

Hi Lisa and everyone at Tourdust,
We've had a wonderful time on our holiday and wanted to pass our appreciation to you. Everything has been expertly planned and executed, allowing us to enjoy the holiday to its fullest. Special appreciation to Muhammed, Ibrahim, and Omar, our Atlas guide, cook, and muleteer, who couldn't have done more for us and were just generally wonderful and hardworking. Riad Hanane is a perfect base in Marrakech to complement the trekking as it's ina less touristy area of the medina, which we appreciated. The staff and accomodation was superb.Thank you again for a trip to remember!
Bob, May, Grace, and Lucas

Hello Lisa. We came back from our trip two weeks ago now so I am sending this email much later than I wanted to. Nevertheless, what I wanted to say was thank you very much for helping us organise an amazing trip. Our days in Mafia Island to celebrate my 50th birthday were exactly what I wanted them to be: a fantastic time with the family doing activities that we all love and enjoy in a relaxing, unusual, beautiful place full of sun, surrounded by water, wildlife and friendly people. We swam with whale sharks, did a lot of snorkeling, had two picnics on a beautiful sand bank, watched the sunset over the sea, did a bird watching excursion and tried scuba diving.
All merit to you because Pole Pole in Mafia Island was your recommendation. I never heard of Mafia Island before and didn't consider Tanzania to start with. It was an amazing place to stay: friendly, relaxed, beautiful, comfortable, with great food and fantastic service. Thanks not only for finding the place but also for your patience as we prepared the trip and I explored options and decided what I wanted. All went incredibly well (places, transfers, flights) and we had a very memorable time together that we will all remember forever - as we still do the safari trip to South Africa you organised for us 5 years ago.
I cannot wait to plan another trip! I am already thinking about where and when. Hopefully no pandemic will get in the way this time. And I will come to you as my favourite travel agent.
I copy in this message the Tourdust office because I want them to know how good you are and how much I appreciated the different trips you organised for us (including the trip to India for my parents that was cancelled due to Covid). I cannot thank you enough :o)
Kind regards, Carol
