This beautiful, forward-thinking resort is tucked into the wild east coast of Mauritius. The beach is lapped by the aquamarine waters of a lagoon, and there’s a huge pool overlooking the Indian Ocean.

Rooms feature a soothing neutral colour palette (with a dash of tropical colour) by acclaimed designer Kelly Hoppen, along with furnished balconies, cosy living areas and beautiful bathrooms with standalone bathtubs. For extra serenity, why not choose to stay in one of the beautiful villas where you’ll enjoy outdoor rain showers, your own heated pool and stunning sea view.

At LUX Belle Mare, you’ll breakfast with your feet in the sand and lunch overlooking a glimmering lagoon. Dinner options range from Chinese street food flavours at the Duck Laundry to made-to-order delights at the Chef’s Table. Ingredients are grown in the resort’s organic farm just opposite, which guests are welcome to visit. When it comes to activities, these range from sunrise horseback rides and beachfront yoga to kitesurfing, golfing, snorkelling and swimming with dolphins. After, you can head off to the Farm Shed to indulge in a coconut oil body scrub or Balinese massage.
