Belle Mare Plage, Mauritius

Overview

Nestled on a sweeping crescent of pure white sand that stretches over a kilometre along the east coast, Belle Mare Plage is widely regarded as one of Mauritius’s most elegant beachfront resorts. Set beside tranquil turquoise waters, the property evokes timeless island grace – with coral-red roofs, winding lily-lined walkways, fragrant frangipani gardens, and a stylish coral-paved courtyard that hosts live Creole music and chic poolside lounges at golden hour.

Guest accommodation ranges from graceful garden rooms and ocean-facing suites to expansive beach villas, many featuring private pools, lush terraces, and verdant greenery. Interiors express calming sophistication – soft cane furnishings, tan leather accents, and Greyscale art paired with understated Mauritian textures. Many rooms open onto private patios or directly onto the beach, blending indoor refinement with seaside freedom.

Golf is at the heart of what sets Belle Mare Plage apart, with two championship courses located on-site. The 18-hole Legend Course winds through rolling hills and wetlands, designed by Ernie Els to incorporate wide fairways, rock-lined water hazards, and sweeping greens. The 18-hole Links Course stretches beside the sea, offering ocean breezes and panoramic views. Guests benefit from resort transfers, equipment hire, and preferred tee-times. Beyond the greens, the resort offers paddleboarding, kite surfing, cooking classes, sunset cruises, and tropical spa treatments using local sugar-cane scrubs.
