Discover the best luxury experiences in Mauritius

One of the most luxe things to do in Mauritius is to book a luxury villa. The One Bedroom Garden Residence Villa at Four Seasons Resort Mauritius At Anahita is the ultimate in sophistication and elegance where you can indulge with private BBQs and sink into your stunning infinity pool. 

The Grand Beach Pool Villa at LUX* Grand Baie is pure opulence located directly on the beachfront. One of the most amazing villas is the Beachfront Suite Pool Villa at Maradiva Villas Resort & Spa, which has an outdoor open-air garden shower.

Book a private luxury catamaran cruise for you and your party so you can relax and enjoy the ocean waves, take in the sights, or even dive into the ocean and swim with wild dolphins. 

Explore luxury boutiques that are brimming with elegant items such as clothes, homeware and jewellery as your private guide takes you on a journey through Port Louis, Caudan Waterfront, and Bagatelle Mall to explore the vibrant shopping scene. 

Like to hike? Book a tour guide to take you on a private hike through this stunning World Heritage Site. Discover the flora and fauna as you make your way to the top for the most stunning views over Mauritius. 

One of the most sophisticated things you can do in Mauritius is to charter your own yacht. Whether you want an intimate charter for two or to gather some friends and take to the seas, it’s one of the best ways to explore this beautiful isle.

Your captain will take you to the best places and coastlines whilst your personal chef whips up the most sumptuous fine-dining feast imaginable. 

This unique experience is one of the most incredible ways to explore the tropical marine life of the Indian ocean. This sea scooter is a mix of a submarine and a scooter, where you can get down on the sea bed to explore the coral reefs and the colourful fish. It’s definitely worth the splurge. 

Explore the most beautiful National Park with a surrounding lush rainforest that is full of monkeys, boars, giant fruit bats, deer, and exotic birds.

Hike through the paths to explore Alexandra Falls, Gorges Viewpoint and Piton de la Riviere Noire, which is the highest mountain in Mauritius.

Being an island, it’s no surprise the best things to do are often on the ocean. Venture out to sea with your skipper, who will tell you all the best places to make the catch of the day. You should book a private session for one-to-one training and advice. Plus, you may even be able to hire a chef to cook up your caught fish! 

For a truly magical experience, take to the depths of the ocean with a scuba diving session in Blue Bay Marine Park. You’ll admire the most vibrant marine life, such as coral heads, reef sharks, barracuda and eels, as you explore the rainbow-coloured ocean floor. The beach itself is spectacular, with the most stunning stretches of sand to relax after an exciting dive. 

Explore the underwater waterfall Mauritius is known for as you fly over the coastlines, the islands, and the cerulean waters. Book a helicopter tour and explore this twinkling gem from the most incredible vantage point. Note, it's an optical illusion created by sand and silt on the seabed, not a real underwater waterfall!

Got a need for speed? You can visit the Heritage Nature Reserve, which is one of the most stunning settings in Mauritius, then hop on the back of a jeep and explore the forest and spectacular views.

You will also see local animals like monkeys, fruit bats, and Echo parakeets as you whizz through the trees. Many of these excursions include a picnic in a suspended pod in the trees, so you can really be at one with nature. 

Adrenaline-seekers can explore the depths of the ocean from a submarine. See majestic sea turtles, tropical fish, and mammals pass your window view of the deep blue sea. 

Anyone for a cup of tea? Mauritius has plenty of plantations for you to explore. Head to Le Domaine de Bois Cheri to discover the first ever plantation, and enjoy a tour as well as a medley of teas during a tasting. You’ll feel right at home...

For a unique experience, try out some flyboarding. It’s essentially a hoverboard soaring over the water, like an ocean inspired ‘Back to the Future’ vibe. Something for those adventure seekers who want to try something completely different on their holiday.
