Mauritius Hotels
The name Mauritius conjurers up images of picture-perfect stretches of white, sandy beach, gently lapped by the warm and clear waters of a turquoise lagoon, bordered by palm trees and saturated in sunshine. Coconuts, pineapples, service and long, cool, refreshing tropical cocktails are also all common items with which to furnish the imagination. These things, however, do not need to remain solely in the mind, while the body is stuck in an office somewhere, cold, bored and full of innumerable cups of coffee. With the enormous variety of hotels in Mauritius, there is sure to be one to suit any type of tastes or budgets.

Mauritius Honeymoons
To me, nothing seemed quite so passé as planning a honeymoon in Mauritius. When I first visited the island, romance was the last thing on my mind and I was determined to cut through the gloss of the travel brochures and find the ‘real’ Mauritius which I was sure existed beyond the impossibly photogenic sunsets and beaches. Alas, as Burns so neatly put it, the best laid plans of mice and men...

Mauritius Golf
Along with tourism and the export of sugar cane, golf has become one of the top sources of income for Mauritius. For such a small island there are an astonishingly high number of golf courses dotted all over the island, ranging from the Mashie course at the Shandrani Hotel in the south east of the island to the Héritage Golf and Spa Resort in Bel Ombre. But without a doubt, three of the most well known and enjoyable courses are the Ile Aux Cerfs course, the Anahita Golf course and the Tamarina Golf course, all of which are eighteen holes.

Mauritius - Demystifying the Myth of the South East Coast
In popularly held opinion, the south east coast of Mauritius is the ostracised sibling. Holiday makers and tourists flock joyfully to the sun-washed beaches and warm lagoon waters of the north, west and south of the island but shun the east. This bias, however, proves to be totally unfounded and this article could equally well be entitled Demistifying the Mists of the South East Coast.

Easter Holidays Mauritius
Although this is not traditionally a period of grand celebration and festivities, Easter is generally a fantastic time to visit Mauritius. As it does not follow the civil calendar, the date of Easter is not fixed: it is the first Sunday after the Paschal Full Moon, following the vernal equinox of the northern hemisphere, and generally falls between the twenty-second of March and the twenty-fifth of April. In these two months, the humidity on the island drops, cyclones become a thing of the past and the sun shines brighter than ever.

Summer Holidays Mauritius
The European summer holidays coincide with the winter and spring months in Mauritius. Although this sounds like a chilly reception awaits, nothing could be further from the truth. The average temperature during the winter is 24ºC, with the sea temperature dropping from the summer high of 29°C to about 20°C. Winter also heralds a welcome drop in humidity and although there can be moderate winds buffeting the east coast, compared to the Mediterranean they are negligible.

School Holidays Mauritius
Mauritius, that small, beautiful island in the Indian Ocean, is the perfect location for a family holiday.
