The hype
Guests are obsessed with the location under Le Morne mountain and the butler service, often calling it the best hotel on the island.
The St. Regis Le Morne Resort, Mauritius
$650-1600+/ noche
Reserva esto si You want the absolute best address in Mauritius for kitesurfing and colonial-style luxury right under a UNESCO mountain.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- The legendary St. Regis butler service (unpacking, coffee delivery) is back
- World-class kitesurfing right off the beach at the 'One Eye' spot
- Five distinct restaurants mean you never actually have to leave the resort
Resumen rápido: It's a grand, sprawling plantation-style manor that feels more like a private estate than a hotel, provided you don't mind the occasional tropical bug.
Reseñado por @salzanotravelcode: I honestly didn't think a luxury resort could be this kid-friendly. We spent days just hopping from the pool to the beach, and the staff treated my daughter like a princess. The pizza by the pool was a lifesaver! Truly the most relaxing family trip we've ever had.

- You are a kitesurfer or windsurfer (world-class spot)
- You want a romantic, quiet honeymoon with butler service
- You appreciate colonial architecture and massive bathrooms

5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The 'Manor House' rooms are actually in the main building and lack the privacy of the standalone villas.
💡The wind can be intense on this side of the island (great for kites, bad for hairdos).
💡You might find a gecko or two in your room—it's the tropics, not a hygiene failure.
💡The Indian restaurant, Simply India, is often rated higher than the French fine dining option.
💡The sunset view from the jetty is superior to the view from most room balconies.
