Tropical Island Holiday in Mauritius

Round off your holiday with a relaxing beach break at Belle Mare Plage, a beautiful property on the east coast of Mauritius. A direct flight whisks you straight from Cape Town International Airport to this Indian Ocean playground.

Belle Mare Plage lies along a private stretch of dazzling white sand. The ocean is protected by colourful coral reefs, just waiting to be explored on snorkelling and scuba diving trips. Go water skiing or set out in a glass-bottom boat, play a round on one of the two championship golf courses (with complimentary green fees) and visit the resort spa.

Your thatched-roof suite is set in lush tropical gardens and, when you tire of the sand between your toes, there are 4 swimming pools to choose from (one heated). Belle Mare also has 7 restaurants ranging from casual dining next to the pool to haute cuisine in the wine cellar.
