Rooms & Suites:

Each of the five room categories has a different design scheme, with corresponding colours and materials.  The rooms range from comfortable and spacious Superior Rooms to the sumptuous Emperor Villa, which features aspects of all the elements and has its own private beach.

The Superior Room’s feature element is metal.  Wooden fittings give sensuous warmth to the rooms, which are resplendent in subdued and elegantly sophisticated shades of sand and ochre colours.  The warm, subtle lightings gleam almost like candlelight through the Deluxe Rooms where the dominant Feng Shui element is featured in the water sculpture.  As in all the rooms, the décor uses clean lines, with shades of blue and sandy colours.  The Junior Suites are spacious and luxuriously decorated in subtle shades of sand and ochre, blending perfectly with the main element, which is wood.  There is an ottoman at the foot of the super king-size double bed and a large comfortable sitting area on the private terrace or balcony.  Each suite has a small dressing room and spacious bathroom with bathtub and walk-in shower.

The themes are earth and fire.  Each Senior Suite has its own private garden looking out towards the lagoon.  Ming Suite and Tang Suite almost glow with warm red and orange hues.  From the sitting area, two steps lead up to the magnificent double bed.  Each of the suites has its own whirlpool bath and a very spacious bathroom.

The Emperor Villa is Legends’ ‘Jewel in the Crown’, the most luxurious place imaginable in which to renew all one’s energy.  All five elements of Feng Shui are used in the furbishing and fittings, with its simply fabulous décor.  The villa has two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, as well as its own fitted kitchenette.  It has its own whirlpool and a delightful, private outdoor stone garden with a pool, a barbecue area and a gazebo for outside dining.  A very special feature of the villa is that it has its own private beach, and there is a butler available to help make each guest’s  stay even more agreeable in anyway he can.  For a large family or a small group of friends, a suite with two extra bedrooms is also attached to the villa.

Restaurants & Bars:

Looking out over the pool and towards the sea, Ginkgo, the hotel’s main restaurant offers a magnificent breakfast buffet, including almost everything that anyone might want to start the day on a happy note.  Dining specialities include table d’hote, gala dinners on alternate evenings and buffet themed with Mauritian, Asian and Mediterranean.  La Bastide, the beach bar and grill is very popular at lunchtime with those who enjoy Mediterranean cuisine, with a hint of the tropics.  It has a relaxed atmosphere under large parasols on a decked terrace, by the water’s edge, looking out towards the northern islands.

Karma House, the hotel’s gastronomic restaurant and the culinary flagship of the hotel is perfect for a special evening in an elegant setting with impeccable service.  A superb open terrace overlooking the pool adds to the feeling of space, also reflected in the open-style kitchen and the walk-in wine cellar.  For those who love seafood, Abalone is like heaven on earth, with produce straight from the sea brought daily to the hotel.  In the evenings, seafood and pearly shellfish alternate with scarlet red crayfish twice a week.  Abalone is also open for lunch, when its specialities include hearty salads and local, Mauritian dishes.

Legends Mauritius Dining

Grand Bleu is Legends’ pool bar, with comfortable sofas in the middle, surrounded by tables and chairs for meals.  Light lunches come in all shapes and sizes, from club sandwiches to snacks, traditional Chinese tea service and dim sum.  Home-made pancakes are served between 4:00 and 6:00 pm each afternoon.  It takes a while to read the cocktail list, full of exciting concoctions.  The bar also serves a wide selection of local and international beers, wines and spirits.  Enjoy memorable moments in the elegant and refined Spirit Lounge, ideal for a quiet drink, before or after dinner.  Lounge music flows through the Champagne & Caviar corner.  The atmosphere is reminiscent of the plush comfort of an English club, with a choice of Havana cigars.

The Banyan Bar is a laid-back place, under some of the oldest Banyan trees on the island, beside its own pool, with seating at the bar itself or under parasols on the lawns.  The bar’s selection includes fresh fruit juices, beers and tropical cocktails.  At lunchtime, fish, seafood and meat grills are cooked in front of you and there is also a selection of salad dishes.
