Anantara Mauritius Resort — Photo by Minor

Anantara Mauritius Resort is located in the underdeveloped yet arguably most beautiful part of Mauritius, Blue Bay on the island's southeast coast. A protected marine park of unbelievably luminescent Indian Ocean waters and powdery white beaches, Blue Bay is also the island's premier snorkelling and diving destination with pristine coral reefs.

The resort offers laidback beachfront living, with thatched roof design and indigenous décor reflecting the rich melting pot history of the island. Dine by the beach. Spa in luxurious surrounds. Fall asleep to the gentle lull of the ocean waves.

Make the most of a stunning location, with adventures out on the water. Charter a boat for deep sea fishing. Paddle over serene coral gardens in a glass-bottomed kayak or learn to dive. Stroll the surf at sunset at the end of another blissful day in paradise.
