Mauritius - 5 star service

Tanuja Sudra on 16 May 2012
Well where do I start? I am one of the very fortunate Gold Travel Counsellors to have attended the most amazing ‘Gold Conference’ in the stunning destination of Mauritius. This annual trip is a reward from the company for being one of their top performing agents.

The reception we received at The Beachcomber properties was outstanding and we were all blown away by the standard of service and cuisine. We were made to feel very special. Golf lovers can enjoy one of the most beautiful courses I have seen, set right beside the sea with the backdrop of Le Morne Mountain.

This was my third visit to the island and has meant that I have now seen and stayed at hotels on its four shores. What I have experienced each time is the excellent service provided by friendly people, wonderful cuisine and second to none luxury.

This was definitely the case at Maradiva Villas Resort and Spa, a hotel I chose to stay at pre-conference. The Villas are amazing and truly luxurious - huge with a wonderful bathroom, outdoor shower, private pool and an outdoor living room. With only 65 villas set in 27 acres of lush tropical gardens there is a feeling of space, privacy and peacefulness. The service was attentive and the cuisine excellent. The Spa specialises in holistic treatments and I chose an Indian head massage which left me floating for days! A wonderful experience, my stay allowed me to de-stress and re-charge my batteries.

While in Mauritius I have experienced a variety of excursions. It’s a fantastic way to get a real feel of what this beautiful island has to offer. A catamaran cruise with stops to snorkel and the chance to see and swim with dolphins…Helmet dive Sea Walk amongst tropical fish…visit the Hindu temple at Grand Bassin the sacred lake…quad biking in Casela nature park...to name a few.

If you are looking for a holiday where you can be truly spoilt, then look no further! Magical Mauritius beckons!
