Shangri-La Le Touessrok: A Mauritian icon reimagined

29 September 2025

For those who seek the pinnacle of island luxury, Mauritius consistently delivers. It’s a destination that pairs natural beauty with exceptional hospitality. At the heart of this offering is Shangri-La Le Touessrok, a resort that has long been a benchmark for sophistication on the island’s east coast. After a recent and comprehensive renovation in 2025, this celebrated resort is ready to welcome guests to a completely refreshed and elevated experience. The transformation, which took place from June to October 2025, has touched every aspect of the resort. All restaurants and bars have been redesigned, and the 185 rooms, suites, and villas have been updated with new indoor and outdoor furniture, elegant colour schemes, and refined decor. This thoughtful reimagining of a Mauritian icon is designed to offer an even more seamless and luxurious stay.

Your private island sanctuary

One of the most compelling features of a stay at Shangri-La Le Touessrok is exclusive access to Ilot Mangénie. This private island, reserved solely for resort guests, is a genuine escape from the everyday. A short, scenic boat ride delivers you to 3.5 kilometres of pristine beach, where you can unwind in your personal beach cabana, complete with attentive sand butler service. The island also features its own restaurant, allowing you to spend the entire day in this secluded haven, exploring nature trails or simply soaking up the sun with the turquoise lagoon as your backdrop. It provides a level of privacy and exclusivity that is rare to find.

A golfer's dream on the east coast

Mauritius is a world-class golfing destination, and guests at Shangri-La Le Touessrok are perfectly positioned to enjoy its finest courses. Your stay includes complimentary daily green fees at two of the most prestigious championship courses in the Indian Ocean: Ile aux Cerfs Golf Club and Anahita Golf Club. Ile aux Cerfs, designed by Bernhard Langer, is located on its own island and offers a challenging but rewarding game with water features on almost every hole. Anahita, designed by Ernie Els, is another spectacular course with large fairways and breathtaking ocean views. The convenience of having green fees included makes it easy to integrate a few rounds into your relaxing holiday.

Elevated dining experiences

The 2025 renovation placed a significant focus on the resort's culinary offerings. With five completely redesigned authentic restaurants and two new bars, the dining experiences are as varied as they are exceptional. Each venue has been thoughtfully conceived to provide a distinct atmosphere and menu. Whether you are in the mood for the delicate flavours of Japanese cuisine at Kushi, the tastes of India at Safran, or fresh, local seafood at the beachside Coco's, your palate will be catered for. The pop-up concepts add an extra layer of excitement, ensuring there is always something new to try.

Rooms and suites with ocean vistas

The accommodation at Shangri-La Le Touessrok has been refreshed to create an even greater sense of harmony with the natural surroundings. The 185 rooms, suites, and beachfront villas now feature new indoor and outdoor furniture, updated colour palettes, contemporary lighting, and fresh linens. Every space feels light, airy, and deeply connected to the ocean views. From the elegant Coral Ocean View Rooms to the expansive Three-Bedroom Beach Villas, each category offers exclusive benefits and a high degree of comfort. Waking up to the sound of gentle waves and stepping onto your private balcony or terrace is a daily pleasure here. With six secluded white sand beaches spanning four kilometres of coastline, you are never more than a few steps from the calm, clear waters of the lagoon.
