Where to Stay in Mauritius
This is probably the most important decision of your trip. In Mauritius, choosing the right area matters just as much as choosing the right hotel. Staying in Grand Baie versus staying in Le Morne makes for a completely different holiday — different beaches, different vibe, different activities nearby.
Then there's the question of what kind of accommodation suits you. An all-inclusive resort that takes care of everything from morning to night? A villa with a private pool where you set your own pace? A guest house steps from the local market? Each option has its strengths, and the right choice depends on who you are and what you're after.
We've broken it all down to help you see things clearly.
