The first post-wedding getaway is special for every couple. The Residence Mauritius, a scenic beachfront retreat, offers newlyweds a memorable vacation, blending luxury, privacy, and authentic island experiences. With visa-on-arrival for Indian citizens, it’s the ideal escape for couples after the wedding frenzy.
Celebrating Life’s Many Memories
Couples can stroll along the pristine white sand of the mile-long beach, bordered by the azure Indian Ocean, where The Residence Mauritius is nestled. They can reflect on their wedding day and envision a bright future while relaxing in its spacious gardens, savouring tropical fruits. The little nooks around the property provide perfect settings for shared moments of togetherness.
Every Moment Enriched
With a design influenced by European elements, the resort has spacious oceanfront or garden-view suites with earthy interiors and opulent amenities – precisely what couples desire following extravagant wedding celebrations. From the moment they arrive, the resort staff attends to every requirement. A series of leisurely meals amidst picturesque vistas and the soothing sounds of the sea waves await the couple, ensuring a serene experience.
Sumptuous Culinary Experiences
While the chefs work their culinary magic, the resort team arranges intimate dinners beneath the twinkling stars or by the beach. Housed in a planter’s house, The Plantation restaurant also provides a picturesque oceanfront ambience and serves authentic island dishes along with innovative recipes. Sample this: succulent seafood like palm heart with lobster, complemented by mango salsa, and delectable crème brulée infused with litchi. The menu also offers a delightful fusion of Indian, Chinese, European, and Creole flavours, prepared using local ingredients and enhanced with indigenous exotic spices. Light lunches and homemade ice creams can be enjoyed at The Verandah by the pool.
Couples can take private cooking sessions where chefs share the secrets of Creole cuisine, indigenous spices, and flavours. The experience concludes with a delightful multi-course lunch featuring the famed Creole Cari Poule (chicken curry).
Time to Unplug & Recalibrate
Inspired by the Zen philosophy, the Sanctuary Spa offers tailor-made programmes for couples, allowing them to select from a range of signature treatments and Ayurvedic therapies. Highly recommended is the Grand Bleu outdoor massage, thoughtfully crafted and conducted in a cabana overlooking the Indian Ocean amidst gentle seaside breezes and the melodic chirping of birds.
A Day Amid Mauritian Sights, Sounds & Spices
The couples can embark on a journey to uncover diverse landscapes and warm-hearted locals. Nature enthusiasts can dive into the vibrant underwater world through snorkelling and scuba diving or set sail for dolphin watching. A scenic drive along the southern coast, a hiking expedition, a leisurely game of golf, or cultural explorations, honeymooners can create memories of a lifetime. The concierge can arrange a full-day excursion that includes Sancho Island, Chamarel, Riviere des Galets Beach, Black River Gorges, Gris Gris, and Vanilla Nature Park on the itinerary. A day wandering through bustling morning markets, selecting the freshest ingredients for your meal can conclude with a traditional Mauritian meal at a local host.
