MARITIM HOTEL MAURITIUS

Maritim offers a sense of style, comfort and total relaxation amid a spacious beachfront estate:

Possibly Mauritius’ most popular all-inclusive hotel Maritim Hotel Mauritius offers a sense of style, comfort and total relaxation on a reef-protected 500-metre beach with a wide choice of land and water sports, including golf. The Maritim is a real hideaway resort that boasts an inviting location on the sheltered north-west coast of the island in the heart of the historical ‘Balaclava’ estate beside Turtle Bay, a Marine National Park, offering ideal snorkelling from the beach. Ideally located near Grand Baie where all the shops and local attractions await or experience the true history and culture in the capital town of Port Louis. Guests can relax by the pool and enjoy the views straight out to sea, and indulge their taste-buds at the mouth-watering seafood restaurant on the beachfront. Romantic in style, the resort is just the place to have a wedding in paradise. In 2009 the resort will undergo some major renovations from April to September.
