Mauritius HoneymoonEndless sunshine and a stunning array of fabulous beach properties means
Mauritius is an ideal destination for the ultimate honeymoon. Basking in the warm waters of the
Indian Ocean, the island has been shaped by the richness of Asia, Europe and Africa and yet remains fully independent. The people are unique with their soft features, infectious smiles and disarming personalities while the spectrum of Mauritius' cultures, costumes, landscape and cuisine will stimulate the senses and the soul. The island is embraced by a spectacular
coral reef which transforms the mighty Indian Ocean into a calm lagoon laced with soft coral beaches and fringed with coconut palms, while inland, Mauritius has preserved its nature, parks and hiking trails for all to enjoy! Many beautiful hotels have developed over the island. Here are those that we feel are the most
romantic properties on the island.
