At a glance

? We handpick the properties we work with. Everything we do is tailor-made for our clients so when you speak to one of our team they will advise you on the best property for you.

The lovely LUX* Belle Mare is tucked away in lush tropical gardens near the quaint, sleepy village of Belle Mare.  Kelly Hoppen has breathed new life into the resort with the property dressed in soothing whites and vibrant brights and each of the thatch-roofed suites and villas is blessed with sea views. And what a view it is: an unspoilt sweep of powder-soft sands, crystalline waters in sparkling shades of beryl blue, coconut palms swaying gently in the breeze – undoubtedly one of the best beaches in Mauritius.

At the heart of the resort, you’ll find the island’s largest swimming pool which provides an idyllic spot for lounging and mingling, gently buzzing by day and sashaying to Balearic beats by night.

Mauritius has made significant strides in advancing LGBTQ+ rights, particularly with the landmark legalization of same-sex sexual activity in 2023. This move was a major step forward in recognizing the rights and freedoms of LGBTQ+ individuals in the country. Alongside this legal change, Mauritius has taken steps to protect its LGBTQ+ community by enacting anti-discrimination laws, ensuring that discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity is largely banned. This makes Mauritius one of the few African nations to offer such protections.

In addition to its domestic progress, Mauritius is committed to the global fight against LGBTQ+ discrimination and violence. The country is one of 96 nations that signed the “Joint Statement on Ending Acts of Violence and Human Rights Violations Based on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity” at the United Nations, condemning violence and discrimination against LGBTQ+ individuals worldwide.

Although challenges remain, particularly in terms of social acceptance in certain areas, Mauritius’ legal advancements and international commitments represent a significant positive shift for LGBTQ+ rights in the region. These developments signal growing recognition of LGBTQ+ individuals’ rights, making Mauritius a more welcoming environment for both residents and LGBTQ+ travelers.

About LUX* Belle Mare

The hotel is set on Mauritius’ widest stretch of beach and is the perfect spot to watch the sun rise whilst sitting on its soft white sand. Enjoy morning yoga and the paradise-like feel of this resort’s location.

Turn your hand to horseriding on Belle Mare Beach as you canter along the pristine beach. It’s hard to leave this beach though once you get settled. The Sandy Toes Bar has everything you need just a few feet from your sun lounger. There’s an on-call concierge to bring you cocktails and a sumptuous beach barbeque. We recommend enjoying a glass of Frozé, the resort’s speciality drink which is a frozen Scrucap rosé.

About LUX* Belle Mare

Food And Drink

Mixe 

At MIXE, conventional all-day dining is turned on its head. With views of the glittering ocean and expansive swimming pool, MIXE dishes up a tempting all-day menu of island specialities, from a fresh sprawling breakfast buffet to round-the-world gastronomic delights.

It’s a spectacular spot: there’s a Josper-style grill, live cooking stations, Asian and Spicy Curry corners, glass tandoor, saj oven for oriental bread-making and a Japanese teppanyaki area. Sweet things also get a starring role, including a dedicated chocolate room where guests can watch and participate in live cooking sessions, a glass oven for viennoiseries and a lavish display of pastries and desserts.

Beach Rouge 

Occupying a prime spot right on the sands and with spectacular views across the Indian Ocean, Beach Rouge is open for lunch and dinner.There’s a hint of French Riviera in the airy white-and-red decor. In the lounge area, cocktails and tapas make for lazy days and cool evenings by the Indian Ocean: flop down on cushions on the beach to the upbeat sound of top DJs. Local, fresh-from-the-sea produce shines in the kitchen, where chefs whip up tantalising feasts of the island’s best seasonal fare.

Amari By Vineet

For a dash of Asian spice, head to Amari by Vineet, the resort’s new Indian restaurant – a clean-lined but opulent space for the Michelin-star chef’s scintillating fare. A leading light in the reinvention of Indian cuisine, Chef Vineet Bhatia won his first Michelin star at Zakia in London in 2001, followed by another in 2006 for his personal venture ‘Rasoi’ in London as well as in 2009 for ‘Rasoi by Vineet’ in Geneva. His masterful technique makes the textures and flavours of India shine, in sumptuous, subtly spiced dishes with contemporary flair.

Duck Laundry 

Heading further east, Duck Laundry is the top table in Mauritius today, offering contemporary-style Chinese dishes, featuring duck in its many guises including crowd-pleasing Peking duck with steamed pancakes. Dim sum, live noodle-making stations, a wood-fired duck oven and a Chinese barbecue station complete the experience, crowned by a varied selection of Chinese teas and Asian spirits.

K-Bar

Named after Kelly Hoppen, the K-Bar entertains with its dragon-inspired cocktails and headlines with another LUX* first: a microbrewery feature in this ‘gastro pub’, where an exclusive range of craft beers are available on tap.

Cafe LUX

Excellent coffee is a must, not a luxury; that’s why you’ll find a Café LUX at the heart of all our resorts and hotels. Café LUX has revolutionised the world of hotel coffee, and our commitment remains clear: to offer our guests the finest barista-made coffee, day or night.

Great coffee begins with freshly ground beans, so we roast our own in our on-site roasting rooms, which can be explored on our aromatic behind-the-scenes tour. Our specialist baristas keep up with all the latest trends and techniques – including Cold Press, Pour Overs and Nitro coffee. Bespoke ‘pod’ machines and a variety of Café LUX* blends allow guests to enjoy an aromatic cup in their room, and even at home.
