LUX* Grande Gaube Mauritius

This totally reimagined retro-chic tropical retreat, tucked away on a peninsula, celebrates life in the tropics the LUX* way. A pioneering vision from Kelly Hoppen delivers a reimagined retro-chic lifestyle that's effortlessly sophisticated, yet blissfully informal. Tucked away bordering two coves and amidst lush tropical gardens, LUX* Grande Gaube is enveloped by the island around it. The calmest of lagoons are blessed with tranquil beaches and two spectacular swimming pools.

All of the accommodation at the resort is made to feel like a home-from-home with nine categories to choose from, each with soothing colour palettes and a chic beach house feel. The resort is known for its focus on wellness with the Wellness Junior Suites being adult only, and its culinary gems, which include a fabulous Peruvian, an overwater Turkish restaurant and even a rum treehouse.

This modern and relaxed resort also welcomes families. They take their small guests very seriously, with both a kids' and a teens' club offering younger guests a sense of adventure and freedom, while giving parents much-needed downtime.
