Le
Prince Maurice represents a new generation of 5-star luxury
hotels. The concept moves away from over- decorated palaces
towards a fresher and more relaxing plan of harmony with nature,
integrity of design, and simplicity of décor. The Aman
Resorts chain in Asia, created this spirit now reflected in
this, the newest of Mauritius' superior resort hotels.
The Mauritian Hotel Industry is grateful to PRINCE MAURICE
who created the spice route, thus giving great impetus to
the trade of "divine essences". It is after his
name that our island was named Mauritius, which became the
most favourite port of call of the Dutch, and which later
on became the distribution centre of Asian spices, thanks
to Pierre POIVRE. The allure of the Indian Ocean islands has
grown far beyond the quest for spices, leading to a demand
for more knowledge of this exotic region. 
LE
PRINCE MAURICE is a five star luxury hotel, overlooking a
peaceful lagoon and the coral barrier reef. This site is indeed
the true jewel of a natural predestined paradise.
Elegant and natural building materials such as marble, wood
and stone as well as an architecture allowing nature,water,
space and light to create an atmosphere of comfort. This concept
truly comes from Asian culture in its art of living embellished
with the Mauritian's smile
and hospitality.
The service also depicts a new generation of luxury hotels.
Elegant and unrestrained, the service at LE PRINCE MAURICE
reflects the tranquillity looked for a discerning clienthle.
The setup of the hotel, only 88 suites in all includes 60
hectares and 4 beaches, provides for an unparalleled standard
of service and care, uniquely personal, never familiar. The
hotel is spread out along a sheltered coral sand beach and
private lagoon. The suites are in two categories Senior and
Junior. They are scattered along the pristine beach, in landscaped
gardens, on waterways, and even suspended on site over the
lagoon. 
The Senior Suites are detached villas, each with a conventional
interior bathroom as well as a stylish exterior walled bathing
area, a waterfall shower cascading into a jacuzzi bath, surrounded
by pebble gardens and flowers.
Each Senior Suite has a large terrace and a private swimming
pool. Three of them are built on stilts, overlooking the calm
lagoon.
The entrance to the Hotel features a towering port-cochere,
leading to the central lobby over bridges spanning palm-studded
water displays. A pool stretches towards the lagoon, the waters
seeming to blend one with the other. The Hotel has no reception
area, or cashier's desk - guests are just that, and formalities
are minimal and conducted privately 
Signature shops and a tranquil library lead to an elegant
lounge bar.This, in turn, leads to the restaurant, which is
in three sections; each suspended over the pool, facing the
lagoon. A unique floating restaurant provides serene views
of the lagoon and the mountains against the setting sun, as
guests enjoy freshly-prepared seafoods and grills.

If all of this becomes too much, the select fitness centre
provides secluded massage areas, an outdoor atrium pool and
beauty therapy, all in an atmosphere of privacy and luxury.
Le Prince Maurice offers discerning travellers refreshment
and refinement in the midst of a healthy and relaxing environment
on one of the most beautiful islands on earth.
