A little Mauritian holiday goes a long way in making life so meaningful!

Mauritius – A slice of Paradise!

One of my personal favourites on my list of ‘top 100 places to visit before I die’ is unquestionably Mauritius, and I just ticked it off. This exotic tropical island nation in the African continent is a luxury tourist destination that shows no signs of slipping down from its position of being a leading holiday location in the world. And speaking of luxury, here you can experience treatment that is nothing short of royalty. The bookishly romantic French, the weirdly organized Germans, and the unusually rich Arabs – this place buzzes with tourists that fly down for a sortie here. Maybe it’s the place, but you won’t see any airs either, but simply people who’ve come here to relax.

Luxury and Peace Go Hand in Hand

The best way to enjoy and explore Mauritius without having to raise a hand, except to raise a glass of cocktail, is to stay in one of the luxurious villas in Mauritius. These villas are possibly equipped with everything that could spoil you silly on a vacation. There’s a kitchen, gas cooker, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, barbecue weber, LCD, internet, desktop, Jacuzzi/pool, maid, babysitter and even a gardener. And the best part is they are big enough to accommodate two families easily. Not that serious trippers and peace seekers like me would ask after hearing about the facilities, but if you’re curious about the tariff, you can have it all for a song.

Options galore to choose from

These Mauritius villas get fancier as they get bigger in size. Villa Cassia in Roches-Noires, East Coast was the place we stayed in. It is a 4-bedroom villa that can accommodate eight people and belongs to the mid-range villas here. There are four-plus bedroom villas as well that can fit in even 12 people. But what’s uniform in all these villas is the presence of complete peace as several of them are located on their own private beach with splendid views of the ocean.

Oh and another thing! There’s a lot of talk about the fierce wind of the East Coast. All I can say is that it was not an issue when I was there. I was explained that it's the orientation of the villa that is determinant; not all villas along the East coast are wind-facing.

Good luck!
