A playground resort by day and night, it's all about music, art, food and wellbeing.
Location
Long Beach is set on Belle Mare’s famous east coast, where soft white sands and a turquoise lagoon stretch for miles. The resort feels lively yet relaxed, with plenty of space along the wide beachfront and easy access to the island’s eastern highlights.
Rooms
There are 255 rooms and suites, all light-filled and contemporary in style, with clean lines, soft colours, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Every room has a private outdoor space looking onto the gardens, pools, or ocean. Families appreciate the larger interconnecting options, while couples often opt for beachfront suites.
Amenities
Dining is a highlight, with five restaurants offering everything from Asian fusion to Italian classics and seafood on the beach. The resort also has four swimming pools, a Cinq Mondes spa, and a well-equipped fitness centre. We love the central piazza-style heart of the resort, which creates a sociable, village-like atmosphere.
Activities
From paddleboarding and snorkelling to tennis, yoga, and archery, there’s always something to do. Guests have access to two championship golf courses nearby, while children and teens are kept busy with dedicated clubs. Evening entertainment includes live music and cultural performances, giving the resort a lively yet polished feel.
Sustainability
Long Beach is committed to eco-friendly practices, with energy-saving systems, coral reef protection projects, and waste reduction schemes in place. The resort also works with local suppliers to source fresh produce, supporting Mauritian farmers and fishermen.

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.
