The Residence Mauritius

There are 163 large guestrooms and suites to choose from, each decorated and furnished in the rich creams and dark woods so redolent of colonial style. Each room has a private balcony or terrace, luxury marble bathroom, air conditioning, satellite TV with CD/DVD player, complimentary WiFi, tea/coffee making facilities and private butler service (on request). Colonial Rooms have either a garden, partial ocean or full ocean view whilst the more spacious suites are divided into Junior, Senior and Ocean Suites. Junior Suites enjoy an adjoining open-plan lounge area and the larger Senior Suites include a separate living and dining area. The romantic Ocean View and Ocean Front Suites are highly recommended, featuring a king-size four poster bed and an expansive private terrace with breathtaking ocean views. Interconnecting options are also available for families, so do call us for details.

Mauritius, a tropical island paradise in the Indian Ocean, offers travelers a year-round escape to pristine beaches, lush landscapes, and a rich cultural heritage.

**Dry Season (May to October):** The dry season in Mauritius is the most popular time to visit. From May to October, the weather is sunny and dry, with cooler temperatures and gentle trade winds. This is the perfect time for beach lovers, water sports enthusiasts, and outdoor activities. Explore the beautiful beaches of Belle Mare, visit the colorful botanical gardens in Pamplemousses, or go hiking in the Black River Gorges National Park.

**Wet Season (November to April):** The wet season in Mauritius brings warmer temperatures and occasional rain showers, as it falls within the cyclone season. However, it's still possible to visit, and this season offers lush green landscapes, fewer tourists, and lower prices. It's an excellent time for experiencing cultural activities, such as the Thaipoosam Cavadee festival, and exploring the island's unique culture and cuisine.

Whether you're relaxing in a luxury resort, snorkeling in the clear turquoise waters, or savoring Creole dishes like seafood curry, Mauritius promises a tranquil and idyllic escape year-round. Discover the magic of this Indian Ocean paradise and create lasting memories in this tropical haven.
