The Bay Club at Anahita is a five-star Sunlife resort on Mauritius’ east coast at Beau Champ, set within the Anahita estate among tropical gardens and an Ernie Els–designed championship golf course. Spacious suites and villas, lagoon beaches, GLOW Spa & Wellness and complimentary access to two golf courses — Anahita and Île aux Cerfs on published terms — make it a strong fit for golfers, couples and families who want room to spread out.

Stay in a one-bedroom Junior Suite beside the fairways, a Prestige Suite with a private plunge pool, or a one- to three-bedroom Deluxe Villa with its own pool and kitchen. Days move easily from the main infinity pool and kids’ pool to tennis, padel and lagoon water sports, with a boat shuttle to Anahita’s quiet beach on Île aux Cerfs often singled out as a highlight. Dining centres on Origine Kitchen, Maré Maré Beach Club, The Jetty Bar and Harbour House, with the Sky Room, L’Atelier, La Réserve and The Daily for more intimate or casual moments. The airport transfer is about 45 minutes by road.

Overall, The Bay Club at Anahita suits travellers who want a calm, golf-led east-coast base with suite and villa space, warm service and beach-club dining — ask us how Half Board, Full Board or All Inclusive works on your dates.

What recent guests tell us
