Hotel "Le Prince Maurice" (Poste De Flacq, Mauritius)

This private sixty-hectare peninsula on which the Prince Maurice stands, recalls the time when the island was still a central part of the spice trade. Surrounded by white sand beaches and lagoons protected by coral reefs, the hotel melts into the island’s tropical vegetation due to its natural architecture, which utilizes wood, stone, marble, and thatch. The suites - some of which are built on stilts - look out over the vast blue ocean and the mangrove trees filled with birds. Between an introductory lesson to kite-surfing and a massage in the Guerlain spa, you will be able to visit the capital, Port-Louis, its markets and botanical gardens - the Pamplemousses gardens are un-missable - and stop at the dormant crater of Trou aux Cerfs.
