The delicate shades of beige with tropical hardwood furnishings and glimpses of antiques from all corners of Asia, unite to enhance the sense of tranquillity and recapture the elegance of a bygone era. Exquisite facilities include The Sanctuary Spa using La Prairie products, a choice of elegant or informal dining venues, and excellent leisure activities for all ages and great waters for diving enthusiasts – a true hideaway of style!
The Residence Mauritius Helicopter Arrival
Recapture the elegance of a bygone era:
The decoration of the new 135 colonial-style rooms and 28 suites is an inspired blend of sobriety and elegance. The sun’s dance on the shutters sifts into the interior to create a melody of light and dark, its mottled shadows wavering over a muted colour-scheme of white and delicate shades of beige, picking out harmonies of honey-coloured woods and wrought iron, highlighting nuances in the sandy tiles. In the bathrooms , marble and wood are elegantly combined. Absolute bliss!
Reliving the magnificence and splendour of yesteryear’s palaces, a butler is assigned to each room and suite. He will unpack and pack your luggage, run a bath and take care of your laundry and ironing service (2 items ironed per person upon arrival free of charge).
The Residence Mauritius Swimming Pool
The final touch to perfect the refined atmosphere in the rooms during the evening is the few drops of Ylang Ylang that are delicately placed on ceramic rings warmed by the bedside lamps. Recapture the elegance of a bygone era at The Residence Mauritius.
