Preskil Island Setting

Preskil Island Resort

The popular Preskil is a modern resort on a private peninsula.
Located in the South East of the Island of Mauritius

This resort is so very much like a Maldives Island with the advantage of being to explore all that Mauritius has to offer.

Location
Set on a private peninsula in Mahébourg, on Mauritius’ southeastern coast, Preskil Island Resort feels wonderfully tucked away. You’ll enjoy sweeping views of the turquoise lagoon with Lion Mountain as a dramatic backdrop, while the town and airport are just 15 minutes away. We love how it combines tranquillity with easy access to local life.

Rooms
The resort has 214 rooms and suites, from cosy Superior Rooms to spacious Junior Suites and family-friendly options. Each space is bright and airy, with balconies or terraces overlooking the gardens or lagoon. Guests love the thoughtful touches like tea and coffee facilities, modern décor, and light-filled interiors that bring the tropical surroundings indoors.

Amenities
You’ll find three restaurants serving local and international cuisine, two bars, a main pool and a children’s pool, and a full-service spa. There’s also a fitness centre, yoga classes, and a kids’ club. We love how the resort balances relaxation and activity, making it a great choice for both families and couples.

Activities
Snorkelling, kayaking, paddleboarding, cultural excursions, and cooking classes are all on offer. You can explore the nearby town or simply unwind on the beach. Guests love how much there is to do without ever feeling rushed.

Sustainability
Preskil Island Resort is committed to eco-friendly practices, supporting local artisans, running energy-saving initiatives, and encouraging guests to take part in environmental awareness activities.

January

January is prone to cyclones and rain, so if you're looking for a beach holiday this is not a reliable time to travel.

February

February is the most active period during the cyclone season in Mauritius, so we would avoid travelling at this time

March

In March the weather is hot and humid, with sporadic rainfall as the end of the cyclone season comes to a close. It is a popular time for travellers as the temperatures aren't too high.

April

If you're wanting to travel in April expect hot weather with temperatures rising to 30 degrees with increasing humidity levels.

May

May is one of the best and most popular month to travel to Mauritius, with temperatures hovering over the 25 degrees mark, with easing humidity making for a comfortable climate.

June

During June the temperatures cool to 24 degrees due to the trade winds on the east and south coast of Mauritius, offering warm and sunny days.

July

The temperatures cool again in July, as the trade winds pick up making some of the more open beaches less sheltered and breezy. It is a popular time to travel due to the summer holidays starting in the Northern Hemisphere.

August

Much like July, August experiences increased winds with warm days perfect for watersports and the islands more sheltered beaches. During the evenings temperatures become cooler and you may appreciate a few more layers.

September

In September the trade winds die down and temperatures rise once again, making it the perfect time for snorkelling as diving as the water clarity increases thanks to the calm weather conditions.

October

October is the islands driest month with temperatures exceeding 25 degrees. If you love nature Mauritius is overflowing with exotic flowers and wildlife as everything comes into bloom, making it the best time for mountain hikes and trips to the country's national parks.

November

In November temperatures start to rise again, as does the humidity as the country progresses into its cyclone season. The weather can be unpredictable with small rain showers, meaning it is still a good time to travel to Mauritius.

December

As the festive season looms, December is one of the busiest months for visitors in Mauritius. As humidity builds up, heavy rain showers occur helping lowering the humidity and clearing the heavy skies.

I have just returned from the most amazing trip to Tanzania, booked with Far & Wild. Everything went so smoothly from the first time I spoke with them. The planning was great, the itinerary was perfect for us, and the lodges were amazing. We spent 10 nights with an amazing guide, travelling through Northern Tanzania and even got to see the migration, which was a lifetime ambition of mine. This wasn't our first safari, so we were nervous as to how it would compare, but it was spot on. I will certainly be using them again to book our next trip....we're thinking of a relaxing beach stay next time to get over the excitement of safari!

Just back from another amazing F&W organised trip to Namibia with the family (8 adults). Having been there before, Alistair tailored our trip to include our favourite locations and added a new one for us, which we loved.The quality of accommodation and guiding, activities, food and drinks was exceptional throughout. It was good value for the level of luxury we had.

We had a wonderful trip to São Tomé and Príncipe - a small island nation in the Gulf of Guinea with paradise (almost empty) beaches and jungle forest. It was all well organised by Far and Wild and we stayed at a great combination of different types of resorts/hotels. We really recommend this for those who want to experience a pristine destination with few other tourists and friendly and welcoming people. The islands also feel very safe. At Principe, there are no dangerous animals, snakes or whatever, and it was great to be able to hike in the jungle without being very conscious of where to put your hands and feet. Go before everyone else does!

Back home again, basking in the joys of a superb safari. Every aspect you arranged for us, including linking up with Mack Air and Wild Horizons locally to transport us. The choice of camps was ideally situated, comfortable, in good surroundings, and with excellent wildlife on the doorstep and throughout the wider country. The service staff in each looked after us very well, catering was excellent, and the game guides were professional, knowledgeable and helpful. You made us happy, and we recommend you to similar safari enthusiasts with confidence.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!
