It is lovely between October and December if you enjoy the sun and heat (it\u2019s the hottest time of year). However, if you want to unwind in milder weather, go between May and July. We recommend first-time visitors go with a laidback attitude and an open mind. Think beyond the beach and explore more of the outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Luxury-Villa-with-Private-Pool-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-6864\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A gorgeous Luxury Pool Villa at The Oberoi Beach Resort Mauritius.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">As designers, you have an eye for style. Which is your favourite resort on the island? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/offer\/the-oberoi-mauritius\/0062y000009E0t8AAC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Oberoi Beach Resort Mauritius<\/a> is our favourite resort and is truly breathtaking. It is so well maintained \u2013 it almost felt brand new. The 20 acres of verdant gardens against the clear skies gave the impression of a tropical paradise. Along with that, the array of artfully crafted sculptures placed throughout the property and the two sparkling lagoons are incredible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"6724\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_2819-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-6724\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"6727\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_3971-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-6727\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"6728\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_3950-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-6728\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"6729\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_3985-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-6729\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Oberoi Beach Resort Mauritius<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"6730\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/IMG_4287-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"-\" class=\"wp-image-6730\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What experiences are available at the resort? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The quality of the facilities offered at the <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/offer\/the-oberoi-mauritius\/0062y000009E0t8AAC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">resort<\/a>, including the glass bottom boat, snorkelling, and tai chi lessons is fantastic. Our Luxury Pool Villa was also excellent, with a private courtyard garden, private heated pool and raised dining pavilion overlooking the ocean. With its distinctive combination of therapies, the Oberoi Spa is a calming retreat. The On the Rock restaurant is outstanding, and the meal was enhanced thanks to the beachside setting. Those environmentally friendly bottles made of plastic from sugarcane deserve special recognition because they are so unusual and novel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the most incredible things about Mauritius?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mauritius is an unreal destination. The scenery, geology, and pristine coastline, everything is incredibly attractive. There is so much more to do on the island than laze on the beach; there are lakes and lagoons, forested mountains, hills, and waterfalls to explore. Simply put, everything is stunning. Coming from the height of India&#8217;s heat to a destination like Mauritius where there is a bright blue sky, glistening sun, and refreshing wind, it really couldn&#8217;t be a better retreat. As we often remark, the Mauritian winter is the ideal time to escape an Indian summer. To top it all off, the locals are friendly and warm and make us feel so welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"videowrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Oberoi Beach Resort, Mauritius_DEAL PAGE_01.mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/727249336?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for more inspiration?
