A landmark of refined contemporary opulence, The Oberoi Beach Resort, Mauritius, glistens along the emerald shores of Baie aux Tortues; a stunning canvas created by the undulating coastlines of the island's northwest. Spanning over 20 acres of flourishing subtropical gardens, with an impressive 600 metres of pristine beachfront basking in the golden sun, the resort presents a seamless blend of nature and luxury. Upon arrival, guests are welcomed into a breathtaking open-sided pavilion lobby that breathes sophistication. Towering palm trees sway gently in the balmy breeze, while tasteful Mauritian art pieces punctuate the serene space. As you glide toward your suite, the sound of swaying palm fronds complements the intoxicating aroma of the sea. The experience effortlessly continues as you explore soaring thatched villas adorned with chic cane and bamboo furnishings; each detail speaks of elegant craftsmanship. The Restaurant tantalizes with a culinary tapestry of European, Asian, and Mauritian dishes, featuring highlights such as steamed snapper baked in clay and lamb shank wrapped in sugar cane-served against a backdrop of tranquil garden views and an ornamental pool.

Explore the Local Area

Positioned approximately 20 kilometers from the vibrant capital city of Port Louis, The Oberoi Beach Resort offers guests easy access to a playground of cultural experiences. Visitors can indulge in the local flavors at the lively Port Louis markets or admire the architecture of the historical Government House. Just a short drive away lies the enchanting Maheswarnath Mandir, a revered Hindu temple that opens a window into the island's rich heritage. Afterward, unwind at the breathtaking beaches of Le Goulet and Pointe Aux Piments, or explore the natural beauty at Bras d'eau Nature Walk. For conveniently arranged transportation, airport transfers take about 65 minutes from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, ensuring a smooth transition into paradise.

Room Information

The Oberoi Beach Resort features 73 exquisite rooms and suites, including luxurious villas that epitomize spacious living with an allure of exclusivity. Starting from 70 square meters, each villa is thoughtfully designed, boasting natural lighting, high ceilings, and private outdoor spaces. Amenities include air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, fully stocked minibars, and elegant bathrooms enhanced with sunken marble bathtubs. But it's the personal touch from the attentive staff-a dedicated butler to cater to desires-that truly elevates the experience.

Room Upgrades

For those seeking even more grandeur, The Resort offers upgraded options including the Luxury Villa with Private Garden, which spans 140 square meters. With an exquisite private swimming pool and expansive terrace that gazes out onto the azure Indian Ocean, it can accommodate up to three adults or two adults and two children. Additional features include indulgent bath amenities, a smoke house for personalized dining experiences, and exceptional ocean views. There's also the opulent suite option with two bedrooms, perfect for families, while the serene private butler service ensures that every moment is catered to perfection.

“In my opinion, this resort stands out with its commitment to thatched, natural aesthetics, avoiding concrete structures for a more immersive tropical feel. The emphasis on well-maintained gardens and diverse dining, moving away from buffet-style service, points to a refined vacation experience. I think its dedication to personalized service and creating unique culinary memories elevates it beyond typical luxury stays.”

attentive stafffine diningwarm welcometrue vacation

All staff members are attentive and friendly. The cuisine features fine dining, and it offers diverse dishes for different dietary needs. I found it easy to destress and enjoy the sunsets (a true vacation!). I deeply appreciated the warm welcome.

I noticed the layout felt a bit uncomfortable. The atmosphere was dull.

Rooms

9/10

My villa had comfortable beds and excellent bathroom facilities. I also appreciated the cute and thoughtful decorations that housekeeping left every evening. The air conditioning worked efficiently and kept the room at a comfortable temperature.

Location

10/10

The hotel provides easy access to a boat club with beach access. Guests have opportunities to see dolphins and snorkel on private boat trips. I would also recommend a helicopter ride (a must) to see the underwater waterfall.
