Where minimalism meets tropical island living
The spirited, forward-thinking LUX* Belle Mare resort reopened on the east coast of Mauritius on 1st October 2023, with a refreshed look after more than a year of renovations. The highly anticipated reopening of the resort – tucked away in lush tropical gardens near the quaint village of Belle Mare, unveiled the timeless architecture that has been elevated with a striking new design whilst retaining its celebrated family ethos.
Taking the resort to new heights, LUX* Belle Mare’s new interiors have been conceived by internationally acclaimed Mauritian designer, Jean-Marc Tang. With a fresh feel, look and style, Tang brings soothing shades of pastels, coral, greens and sand white to LUX* Belle Mare, taking cues from the natural surroundings – where minimalism meets tropical design, exuding island living.
Island’s Rich Mauritian Heritage
Inspired by the resort’s sublime surroundings, the 174 suites and 12 unique villas are modern, with an indoor-outdoor living concept, whilst retaining the island’s rich Mauritian heritage and encapsulating laid-back and family spirit.
Exclusive Restaurants at LUX* Belle Mare
Guests can also look forward to the return of the iconic culinary offerings across five exclusive restaurants with an array of cuisines including Indian, Chinese, Mediterranean and international classics.
Beach Rouge – LUX* Resorts’ signature beach club concept – serves fresh Mediterranean cuisine paired with stunning ocean views and a notable programme of international DJs and performers setting the mood.
Signature restaurant Amari by Michelin-starred Chef Vineet Bhatia is a must-visit, offering a modern interpretation of India’s rich heritage, in earthy pink interior settings with contemporary murals.
Much-loved Duck Laundry offers modern Chinese dishes and tasting menus with house specialties like the Peking duck, dim sum and Sichuan favourites.
Adjacent to the pool, at the heart of the resort, the all-day-dining restaurant, MONDO serves a selection of international cuisines. For lunch or afternoon snack, guests can head to Royce Street, where a vintage 1933 Hooper Limousine Rolls Royce serves exceptional Southeast Asian cuisine.
They can also discover the ‘Keen on Green’ concept, an impressive offering of plant-based, vegan and locally-sourced dishes on every menu.
A holistic approach to wellness is a key component in the design of LUX* ME Wellbeing and LUX* ME Spa. The five elements: earth, water, fire, air and space are the foundations of wellness journeys for guests. Each journey us tailored to individual needs combining mindfulness activities, relaxing spa treatments and breath workshops to restore.
The resort reopens with a range of enriching conservation activities, whilst retaining its commitment to championing sustainability through socially responsible and environmentally friendly practices. Guests can learn about marine life conservation with Eco-Sud, a NGO specialising in marine biodiversity and visit the resort’s very own farm, supplying fresh, pesticide-free vegetables, herbs and leafy greens.
