HONEYMOON A Taste Of The Tropics 10452 views
With its kilometre-long beach of powdery white sand, the five-star luxury Residence Mauritius is one of the most beautiful jewels of the sparkling Indian Ocean and makes the perfect honeymoon hideaway.
The elegant colonial-style resort with its subtle mix of calming dark wood décor and oriental antiques offers honeymooners a peaceful, soothing atmosphere to enjoy your first days as Mr and Mrs.
Inspired by turn-of-the-century colonial mansions and Mauritian plantation houses, The Residence recaptures the refined elegance, opulent luxury and impeccable service of a bygone era.
Check-in is held in the comfort of your suite and a personal butler is on hand to attend to your every need, including unpacking and running a deliciously scented bath. Pamper yourself in the Sanctuary Spa with the romantic Ylang Ylang massage for two or take a gentle Serenity Walk along the powder-white shore and enjoy the unspoilt beauty of Mauritius.
Spend the sultry evenings enjoying dinner at the ocean-front Plantation restaurant, where fresh seafood and Creole dishes are the order of the day, and live jazz is your honeymoon soundtrack.

Insider tip:
WP bride LoobyLoo2002 travelled to Mauritius for her honeymoon and has this tip for brides-to-be: “Don’t change money at home! The rate in Mauritius is much better. When you arrive at the airport in Mauritius you’ll see loads of exchange bureaus at the arrivals halls and you can change your money there.”
