At the Oberoi Mauritius, the 73 individual thatched pavilion rooms make for the perfect private and indulgent retreat – each has its own pool and stunning, near-panoramic sea views.

Meanwhile, the hotel’s spa is a sanctuary of relaxation with state-of-the-art technologies combined with traditional local knowledge and skills. Give your body an ‘oriental glow’ with a coconut husk body brush, followed by a deep massage with freshly ground coconut.
