Mauritius

Mauritius, what a great place to have a relaxing island holiday and it's only 4 hours away from South Africa. This was my third trip to Mauritius, previously visiting the Grand Bay and Trou aux Biches areas on the North West side for family holidays.

This visit was more work related - as I was attending our Travel Counsellors Conference. We were hosted at the 5-Star Shandrani Resort & Spa in Blue Bay on the South East Coast, only 10 minutes from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport. Shandrani is a fully inclusive resort inclusive of all meals, all drinks, most sports, activities, recreation and entertainment, with 5 restaurants, 2 swimming pools, 3 beaches and a Wellness Centre. It is the perfect getaway for families, couples & even honeymooners.

If you want to explore the island, Port Louis is only 40 kilometres away and Grand Bay 80 kilometres away.

I had the opportunity to visit another two properties in the area, the 4-Star Preskil Beach Resort and the 3-Star Astroea Beach Resort, so if you need any advice on Mauritius I'm sure I can help you make the right decision.
