Mauritius: The Out Of Office Collection
Tailor-made VacationMauritius is one of the LGBTQ+-friendly pearls of the Indian Ocean. Unlike its Indian Ocean neighbor the Maldives, Mauritius is comprised of a single island. Mauritius is considered a superb beach destination, especially on the north side of the island, where the longest stretch of beaches can be found. Our favorite beach in Mauritius is Belle Mare Plage, a peaceful and palm-lined shore with powder-white sands.

Our Experts
Mauritius always feels like next-level luxury, a cut above the rest. It's quieter than some of the other island destinations so has a heightened sense of secluded relaxation.
