LUX Grand Gaube, Mauritius © LUX Resorts
Mauritius
Ile Maurice
On arriving at reception, you are immediately struck by the magnificent view overlooking this charming setting.
Vast gardens with winding paved paths lead down to the ocean and the lagoon bay, dotted with coconut palms and casuarina trees.
The hotel has three swimming pools and four restaurants set beneath high thatched roofs with exposed beams.
LUX* Grand Gaube is in fact well known for its distinctive culinary experiences: flavourful Peruvian cuisine, a Turkish restaurant facing the lagoon, and even a rum tasting beneath a majestic century-old banyan tree.
Several dining options are available, including local and international cuisine:
The Palm Court: interactive dining with several cooking stations.
INTI: Peruvian and Argentinian cuisine.
Bodrum Blue: Turkish cuisine.
Beach Rouge: beach restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere.
At LUX* Grand Gaube, younger travellers are well catered for too! The PLAY Kids Club and the dedicated teen programme offer them plenty of adventure and freedom, while the delicious tailored menus will delight younger palates. For parents seeking quiet, head to “under the banyan”, the adults-only area, for a moment of relaxation while the children play in the sun.
With a large pool (supervised by a lifeguard) and a sheltered lagoon, young travellers are spoilt for choice at LUX* Grand Gaube. Protected by the coral reef, the location is perfect for learning to sail, paddleboard or water-ski. You can also have fun together as a family on land. Enjoy an introduction to golf on the practice range, a bike ride to the nearby village of Grand Gaube, or stargazing together on the beach, guided by the hotel's expert.
The hotel offers a range of room, suite and villa categories, all elegantly decorated and equipped with modern amenities.
Most rooms offer sweeping ocean views.
This is a relatively large resort, with 198 rooms, suites and villas spread across the property. The superior, junior and deluxe rooms are bright and well-appointed, some with a balcony or terrace facing the sea. Superior ocean-view rooms offer additional space.
The hotel has an adults-only area for those seeking extra space.
The LUX* Me spa was designed by specialists to offer a sanctuary with an unmatched tropical decor. It includes 12 treatment rooms and 3 pools offering cold, temperate or hot bathing experiences, as well as a hammam and a sauna, changing rooms, and peaceful indoor and outdoor spaces to relax before and after a treatment.
And for travellers also in search of inner wellbeing, the hotel has a meditative labyrinth, sunrise yoga classes, and a Mind & Body studio dedicated to body and mind…
Every water sport imaginable is at your disposal.
Windsurfing, kayaking, water skiing, sailing, snorkeling boat trips, big-game fishing and nearby diving facilities let you spend entire days in the sea and sun.
For those who prefer dry land, there’s volleyball, tennis, a well-equipped gym and a spa, as well as a golf course nearby.
As the water at the beach is fairly murky due to the site’s location (a bay), snorkeling and scuba diving are practiced outside the hotel grounds.
For evening entertainment, outdoor cinema, karaoke and themed nights will liven up your stay, and a concierge service is on hand to arrange your excursions and activities.
