Rothschild Safaris | Mauritius

Often regarded as solely a tropical beach paradise, Mauritius is far more than a one-dimensional destination. With a mix of Chinese, Dutch, French & African influences, the island nation is culturally diverse, & the jungle interior promises abundant wildlife, dramatic waterfalls & endless explorations.

While its beaches could be considered the brightest sparkles of this jewel of the Indian Ocean, stepping away from its perfect white sand and azure waters on a luxury Mauritius vacation will reward you with a lush and verdant wilderness, bustling creole-inspired streets, national parks and rainbow-coloured landscapes.

Though romance seeps from every view and location, Mauritius is a destination equally as suited to families on a luxury vacation as it is to honeymooners. The ocean offers explorations both above and below the surface, and its wooded mountainsides are filled with birdlife, monkeys, deer and much more. Activities also abound, and Mauritius offers an endless array of entertainment for all ages of visitors.

The Mauritian experience can be divided into three key areas: the mountains and jungles, the coast and ocean and the townships. Each holds appeal on numerous levels, with nature lovers, gastronomists, cultural enthusiasts and more adventurous types all abundantly accounted for. A day of your luxury Mauritius vacation can begin with an ocean dip before boarding a boat for a remote forested sanctuary island, taking a sunset cruise and finishing with a classic Creole cooking class and dinner. In Mauritius, you set the pace, with adventure around every corner, or another beach hammock and piña colada with your name on it.

Though numerous luxury vacation options are available throughout Mauritius, accommodation is invariably spectacular. Modern, resort-style properties incorporate intimate cabins, more communal lodges and apartments, with beachfront outlook, a complete suite of facilities, golf courses and more.
