Character and identity
Set on a secluded peninsula on Mauritius's north coast next to the fishing village of Grand Gaube, this 186-room resort wraps two white-sand beaches and a topaz lagoon in sprawling tropical gardens by Stephen Woodhams. Kelly Hoppen's interiors run in earthy neutrals with marine accents, while architect Jean-Francois Adam frames a relaxed contemporary Indian Ocean look. Three pools (including an adults-only one at the peninsula's edge), a spa, and a creative streak (Camille Walala murals at Beach Rouge, Jace's Gouzou graffiti, a red phone box for free international calls) give the place real personality. Six restaurants span Peruvian-Argentine at INTI, Turkish at Bodrum Blue, Mediterranean at Beach Rouge, and a Creole Smokehouse under a banyan.
Who's it for
Best for:
Couples and families who want a stylish, design-led beach resort with genuine variety on the plate and room to roam. The split between an adults-only pool and smokehouse on one side and active kids and teens clubs on the other means multigenerational groups coexist easily. Foodies and design-literate travellers will find plenty to engage with.
Should look elsewhere:
Anyone wanting walkable village life, nightlife on the doorstep, or a compact boutique feel. The peninsula setting is deliberately remote, and a property of this scale with seven bars and six restaurants leans resort-energetic rather than hideaway-quiet.
Bottom line
The pull here is the combination of a genuinely beautiful peninsula setting with a creative, art-inflected design language that lifts it above the standard Mauritian beach resort. Splurge on a suite or villa with direct lagoon access, consider the optional all-inclusive if you plan to graze across the restaurants, and time a stay around the local artist and entertainment programme.
