EnquireHeritage Hotels Le Telfair is a luxury resort located along the southwest coast of Mauritius, one of several resorts that make up the larger Heritage Bel Ombre holiday destination. The complex lies within expansive parkland that’s been carefully preserved over the years, and within the resort there’s a nature reserve, a pristine beach looking out onto a lagoon, a highly rated 18-hole golf course, a lovely spa and a plantation house dating back to the 19th century.
The accommodation comprises a total of 158 rooms and suites housed across 20 large villa buildings. Some of the rooms look out onto the resort’s well-manicured gardens, while others offer direct beach access. Those on the ground floor come with their own private terrace for al fresco relaxation, while first-floor suites come with a balcony with scenic views. All suites are air conditioned and very well equipped.
There are a dozen restaurants and bars to choose from and dining venues range from vintage-style fining dining restaurants, to casual cafes and open-air beachside eateries. The cuisine is also refreshingly diverse: from hearty British fare and Pan-Asian favourites, to sumptuous Mediterranean dishes and local Mauritian specialties, there’s something to suit every palate. Cooking lessons, wine tasting sessions and private meals for couples and honeymooners are available.
There’s a great deal to do within the resort from bird watching sessions to quad biking, scenic picnics, dolphin watching boat trips and visits to the nature reserve. Those looking to get out onto the water have activities such as fishing, stand-up paddle boarding, windsurfing and kayaking at their disposal; for those keen to keep active, sports such as tennis, beach football and badminton are readily available. There’s also a fully equipped fitness centre and mini ropes course.
The resort does a very good job of catering for families. There’s a club for children aged three to eleven and one for those aged twelve to seventeen. Both clubs offer a wide variety of exciting and enriching activities, including arts and crafts, trips on glass bottom boats, beach volleyball and dance classes, to name a few. There’s also a club just for babies, with fully trained nurses available to look after newborns and toddlers up to three years of age.

Hi Lisa, We had a fabulous time thank you. The accommodation and other ideation were all terrific - that’s so much for your help. The apartment in Cape Town was particularly good - we would never have found that: Boschendal was great as well and game lodge was superb. Thanks again, Alistair

Dear Lisa
Well, we are back and still buzzing. We have had a marvellous time. The weather helped. We left Manchester in the snow and arrived in Marrakesh at 30 degrees. We were well looked after in the Riad. I'm glad we booked a meal for the first evening - ate it on the roof terrace. We can recommend that. It was delicious. We ate at the Foundouk, as per your recommendation and on the following night we ate at Le Jardin - got lost on the way to it!. We can really recommend Le Jardin.
The following day we went to Majorelle gardens. Fortunately we had looked it up before we travelled because you have to book in advance online only from Jan 2023. We found our own way to the Medera Ben Yousef and Latifa took us to Bahia Palace - both were stunning.
The following morning our lovely taxi driver Mohammond collected us to go to the EcoLodge. Yet another Mohammond made us very welcome. Again we ate well! You were right, the pool was freezing, but I can't sit next to water and not get in. Once you're in you forget how cold it is! I wasn't the only person to try the pool.
Rashid, our guide for our walk collected us. He was brilliant. It was hard work, but worth it. I was determined I would make it. Kevin is fitter than me! The Berber family were lovely. We stopped when we were nearly there to see how rag rugs were made. When we got back Rashid and Mohammond confessed that Mohammond had said to Rashid that he should get us to a road if we got too tired and they would send a taxi (or a mule!) to collect us - or me, but Rashid was sure that I'd be OK. He was right. I think they wondered about these 2 70+ year olds. We can't praise Rashid enough. He had walked over from Imlil in the morning and was going to walk back after he left us.
Thank you so much for putting our holiday together. We never thought it would be 3 years before we went. We are so glad we persevered. We did wonder what we had let ourselves in for as 2 oldies!
Fiona and Kevin
