An extensive resort re-imagined reflecting high quality and luxury in tropical paradise surroundings
Location
On a sheltered peninsula just outside Grand Baie, LUX* Grand Gaube blends a playful spirit with postcard-perfect views of the Indian Ocean. The setting is all palm-fringed coves, quiet beaches, and turquoise lagoons, yet you’re only a short drive from the bustle of northern Mauritius.
Rooms
There are 186 rooms, suites, and villas, all with sea views. Interiors are bright and retro-chic, styled by designer Kelly Hoppen, with splashes of colour, natural textures, and terraces that make the most of the views. Guests love the easy indoor–outdoor flow, whether it’s breakfast on your balcony or a dip in a private pool if you’re staying in a villa.
Amenities
Dining is a highlight, with seven restaurants ranging from Peruvian–Japanese fusion to wood-fired pizzas on the beach. There are two main swimming pools, a spa with wellness classes, and even a private cinema under the stars. We love the quirky touches that LUX* is known for: an ice cream parlour, a rum treehouse bar, and coffee roasted on site.
Activities
You can snorkel straight from the beach, try paddleboarding, or head out diving and kite surfing. Tennis courts, a driving range, and fitness classes keep things active, while private catamaran cruises let you explore the coast in style. For families, there’s a kids’ club and a teens’ programme, with plenty of space for everyone to do their own thing.
Sustainability
LUX* Resorts run their own Tread Lightly programme, and Grand Gaube is no exception. The hotel has cut out single-use plastics, uses solar energy, and supports local farming cooperatives for much of its produce. Guests will notice refillable water stations and eco-friendly spa products.
