Sheila Malloo

Sheila has been an integral part of the LUX* Belle Mare team for over 22 years, starting her career journey as a receptionist in September 2002. During her tenure rising through the ranks, she has always demonstrated exceptional dedication, outstanding leadership and commitment towards the resort. She is an exemplary team member who embodies the Group's brand and ethos of care. Her extensive hospitality experience, coupled with unwavering passion and quest for excellence, will steer the resort into its next chapter.

In line with Group's talent development and succession planning to ensure a smooth transition, Sheila will take office after the departure of General Manager Gerhard Hecker when his contract concludes on 25 November 2024. Gerhard has been highly instrumental in the last three years in the repositioning of the property, the rebuild post-fire, and its grand reopening.

Within 10 months of operation, the resort has been conferred with remarkable industry recognitions from the international Forbes Travel Guide 5-Star Award to the recent 5-Star Luxury Rating by Mauritius Tourism Authorities, after LUX* Grand Baie. This reinforces The Lux Collective's luxury positioning as the first and only global hospitality group in Mauritius to have two properties with such luxury grading.
