The Oberoi Beach Resort

With an excellent beach-side location within walking distance of the lively village of Grand Bay, Mauricia Beachcomber Resort & Spa is the ideal destination for an island getaway. The hotel has a smart-casual character and the design is contemporary. The spacious public areas make the most of the fantastic beach views.

The 220 rooms and suites feature bright, summery colours with swathes of white and accents of wood. Standard and superior rooms all face the sea while some, which are located closer to the beach, are classified as beachfront standard and superior rooms. All superior rooms have small, semi-private gardens. The two-bedroom garden facing apartments are located away from the main hotel.  The most opulent space of all is the private villa with its own garden and pool.

The hotel’s main restaurant is Les Quais Restaurant which is designed to look like the deck of a boat. There are modern, live cooking areas so you can watch the chefs at work. Mediterranean-style Baywatch Bar boasts its own private beach area and snacks are served at certain times in the afternoon.
