Today Mauritius is renowned for being a vibrant holiday destination that is popular with families and couples alike, and with an incredible choice of luxury resorts, beautiful natural surrounds and sublime beaches (among many other things), it’s really not difficult to understand why. One of the most fascinating things about this small emerald gem, is that it was only in the 16th century that it became inhabited, and before this time it was said to be covered in a thick blanket of lush vegetation and filled with sensational and unusual plant life and magical creatures.

Picturesque tropical scenery and flawless beaches played a huge role in turning the once lesser-known tropical paradise of Mauritius into the highly-coveted holiday destination it is today. Popular among celebrities looking for a secret hideaway, families looking to enjoy precious moments with their loved ones and loved-up couples looking for a romantic getaway, this stunning island paradise is what dream holidays are made of.

The tranquil oasis known as the Cinq Mondes Spa and Wellness Centre at Long Beach is something truly magnificent. Not only does it form a part of the world-renowned and exclusive Parisian Cinq Mondes brand, it’s arguably one of the best spas in Mauritius.

For people who enjoy relaxing island holidays where tropical drinks are the order of the day as they recline on a stunning beach and journey into an almost meditative state as they watch the glittering ocean, the Maldives is the epitome of paradise.
