About Le Cardinal Resort

Hitting the sweet spot on Mauritius's most picturesque beach

Mauritius lies 800 kilometres east of Madagascar and a long way from anywhere else, preserving the idea of a remote, tropical island paradise. In reality, it's quite a sizeable island that has seen a fair amount of development, especially in tourism. And it's certainly an alluring destination for anyone looking for crystalline beaches and turquoise ocean adventures. Le Cardinal Exclusive Resort, on the island's northwestern tip, faces westwards over the Indian Ocean. It offers everything you'd expect from a tropical island holiday, and more besides, including a gourmet restaurant and superb watersports.

Property details

The property

The hotel centres around a large, glittering, ocean-facing pool. To one side, the formal dining area offers both indoor seating and a more casual deck outside (the smoked marlin is a treat!). For casual dining, head to the beach bar, where umbrellas shade simple wooden tables with spectacular views. The smart Piano Bar and plush adjacent lounge are great for cocktails. Massages are offered on-site, and you're welcome to use the gym, tennis court and spa at nearby Casuarina Hotel.

The rooms

The 13 spacious air-conditioned suites include junior suites, two penthouses and a family duplex. The junior suites have double beds, a comfortable lounge and small sea-facing balcony. The duplex has an extra bedroom with a bunk bed as well as a pull-out sleeper couch. All bathrooms are open-plan and en-suite, with showers and free-standing tubs. The penthouses are substantially larger both inside and out, with ample seating and beautiful wooden floors. One has a plunge pool; the other a Jacuzzi.

Activities

In Mauritius you can be as active or inactive as you like. Relax on the sands or take advantage of Le Cardinal's complimentary activities – snorkelling, kayaking, pedal-boating and sailing in a glass-bottomed boat. Diving and water-skiing can easily be arranged with nearby operators, and there are a few golf courses within a couple of kilometres. Fancy a party? There's a humming nightlife around the corner at Grand Baie Beach, or a more chilled vibe five minutes away in Trou-aux-Biches.
