A blend of elegance and relaxation, Sugar Beach Resort is a haven of refinement in the purest tradition of old plantation mansions. This majestic manor house and villas of characteristic colonial architecture are set in a vast, manicured garden lined with palm-trees, with the sweet fragrance of tropical shrubs wafting in the air.

Located on the west coast of Mauritius 35 km from the capital city of Port Louis, Sugar Beach Resort encompasses a magnificent 20-acre tropical park filled with floral fragrance. Everything here spells harmony.

The ornamental ponds, small bird lake and immaculately neat gardens are an open invitation to serenity. The bright white of the kilometre-long beach sets off the Indian Ocean’s rich palette of limpid-turquoise to lapis-lazuli blues. Just as the echo of the breakers on the barrier reef in the distance and the ruffle of the breeze through the coconut palms highlight the prevalent peace of the place.

From the superb Manor House to the Villas and La Rhumerie, the resort’s unique colonial architecture and style, with its Creole or rattan furniture, recreate the splendour of the island’s finest sugar domains.
