Mauritius itself is located in the Southern Hemisphere, just on the Tropic of Capricorn, surrounded by unstoppable
views of the azure waters of the Indian Ocean. The island itself is small, with a journey from top to bottom taking no
longer than 2 hours. The capital is the vibrant Port Louis on the north west coast, with the main business district being
Curepipe in the centre of the island. Temperatures are warm year round, dropping to around 24 degrees in June/July,
and creeping up to the low 30’s in January/February. Rainfall is lowest in June, July, and only up to about 9 inches for
January/February…… all in all a year round destination.
Weddings at Beachcomber Hotels are popular with around 300 every year taking place, in one of the 8 hotels. They
guarantee only one wedding each day in any one hotel, so you can rest assured that on your special day you will have
the undivided attention from all the hotel staff! They offer expertise and unrivaled attention to detail, in a wonderful
location. You will also meet your own personal wedding coordinator, who will take care of everything from matching
bouquets and button holes, to arrange witnesses for your ceremony if required. You are free to choose where you get
married within the resort, whether it is in the stunning gardens, by a pool or on the beach, the flexibility and choice
really is yours.
All of the hotels in the Beachcomber group are suitable for weddings and honeymoons, and choosing will really
depend on your particular requirements. If undiluted luxury in a small, boutique, Leading Hotel of the World is what
you are looking for, then the Royal Palm is a must. This is arguably the premier hotel on Mauritius, with the finest
discrete service, first class accommodation, and an unrivalled location, on a stunning beach, close to Grand Baie.
If you are looking for relaxed, barefoot romance in understated accommodation, with a choice of fine dining then the
Trou Aux Biches hotel is a must. Located on one of the best beaches on the island, the Trou Aux Biches is one of the
most popular choices for weddings and honeymoons in the Indian Ocean. The friendly relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere
makes a stay here one you will savour and want to repeat.
If you are are looking for some activity during your honeymoon, then the Shandrani hotel comes highly recommended.
It is a superb five star all inclusive hotel with a unique combination of superb accommodation and facilities, with a fully
inclusive service. Not only are all your meals and drinks included, but so are some spa treatments, and most of the
sporting activities including scuba diving.
Paradis and Dinarobin Hotels are located on the stunning south west peninsula of the island, with Le Morne Mountain
as a backdrop to the azure waters of the Indian Ocean. These hotels offer spacious resorts, with elegant and luxurious
accommodation. Paradis is the more vibrant of the two, with more rooms, restaurants, pools and a beach. The
Dinarobin is the more elegant of the two, with all suite accommodation and a stunning spa. Whichever you choose to
stay at, the facilities of the others are available for your use.
Finally the three other hotels, Le Victoria, Le Canonnier and Le Mauricia. These are the most vibrant of the
Beachcomber hotels, and offer excellent value for money. Le Victoria is particularly suitable for families, and is offered
on a half board basis. It’s located close to Port Louis, and Grande Baie, so if you get itchy feet then it’s well worth
considering. Both Le Canonnier and Le Mauricia are fantastic value, both are inclusive hotels and great if you have a
lively group for a wedding. They are located on the north west of the island. Le Canonnier is on the old Cannon Point,
one of the most spectacular locations, with uninterrupted views of the Ocean in more than one direction! Le Mauricia is
closer to Grand Baie, and strolls along the beach in the evening for pre dinner drinks or a wonder around the shops
are well recommended.
In all a honeymoon or wedding in Mauritius won’t disappoint. The attention to detail for your wedding, with personal
wedding co-ordinators, and the guarantee of only one wedding a day ensures that the day is as perfect as you
planned. The choice of hotels, accommodations, dining options and locations will guarantee you can find a perfect
location for the honeymoon of your dreams.
