Sugar Beach Resort

Set on the sunset side of the longest white sand beach on the island, Sugar Beach Resort is built in the style of the old Mauritian sugar plantations, this luxury resort combines a fascinating blend of colonial architecture, great romantic ambience, gracious lifestyle, incomparable recreational facilities and superlative service to create a unique tropical island holiday experience.

There are a number of things which make this resort unique: the dining is as varied as it is tasty - everything from tandoori chicken to teppanyaki, with a little shark thrown in; La Rhumerie which is as fine a place as any to watch the world go by; the well thought out Sugar Club health and fitness facility.

The luxury accommodation at Sugar Beach Resort is divided into rooms in the gracious Manor House, and in the sixteen adjacent Creole-styled Beach Villas, some of which are no more than 30 metres from the beach.

Dining at Sugar Beach Resort is indeed a pleasure. A sumptuous buffet is presented at breakfast, including an enormous variety of freshly baked pastries and delicious breads. Lunch is usually a fairly informal affair, and all the stops are pulled out for dinner. Menus have been thoughtfully composed and tastily prepared, and buffets offer a huge variety of absolutely delicious and interesting options.

One of the highlights of this wonderful resort, La Rhumerie is open every evening for your pleasure, and offers a huge range of traditional and flavoured rums, together with cognacs, liqueurs and a selection of fine cigars. La Rhumerie is also the perfect place to be at peace with the world as you watch the sun sink slowly over the tranquil Indian Ocean.

The unique Sugar Club offers a health and fitness centre with a fully equipped gym with latest cybex machines, supervised by professional instructors in addition to a hairdressing salon and beauty centre which provides cosmetic and facial treatments as well as a full range of rejuvenating body treatments and therapeutic massages for men and women.

Located conveniently at the entrance of the resort, and with the backdrop of the magnificient mountains, the Conference Center of the Sugar Beach Resort can host the smallest of meetings to the grandest conferences.

The true Creole plantation domain style architecture houses an array of the most modern office automation and presentation accesories, covered parking spaces and a fully equipped kitchen that combine to rank the centre amongst the best in the world

The conference center has an area of 294 square meters (14m x 21m) for seating 200 delegates in classroom parallel style and up to 360 in cinema style. This makes the new center one of the largest available on the island.

When not in use in full capacity, the room can be transformed into 3 breakaway rooms - 2 rooms of 7m x 7m, with a seating capacity of 40 delegates each and the third of 14m x 14m, with a seating capacity of 160 delegates - all in classroom style.

The center is fully equipped with state-of-the-art presentation, documentation and office automation systems that include the BARCO system, computer links, video, large electronic screen, silent air conditioning, soundproof walls, moveable partitions, special lighting and a host of other standard equipment.

No wonder, the only things you will miss are the exhaust fumes, the traffic jams and the crowds.
