hanti Maurice prides itself in being the perfect Mauritian boutique retreat. Firstly it is small with only 61 junior suites and villas dotted across 36 acres of exquisite tropical gardens and around a pristine horseshoe coral sand cove. Secondly, everybody gets that picture perfect sea view and the orientation of the resort is perfect for romantic offshore sunsets. Most importantly, the attitude and service is spot on with staff who genuinely spoil their clients and cuisine that is the envy of the “oh so” hotels in the not so close vicinity. In a nutshell Shanti Maurice is a little gem that prides itself in promoting the creole* culture of Mauritius.

The largely untouched south coast means that the resort feels richly detached from the ribbons of gimmicky developments now redolent to the north. Instead, Shanti Maurice has taken enormous care to work with the community both to respect its environs and minimise the impact of the resort on it.

Shanti Maurice, a Nira Resort, has combined the right ingredients to create the ideal all-round beach retreat in Mauritius
