Shanti Maurice A Nira Resort

In the south of Mauritius, by the small village of St Felix lies the white sandy beach which hosts the Shanti Maurice luxury resort and spa. Aiming to provide to their guests a genuine island experience, the hotel has been built and furnished of mostly local materials and offers a range of services and treatments supportive of this concept. All of its suites and villas offer Ocean views and are built onto the beach. The Shanti Maurice is probably one of the most spacious resorts of Mauritius, which is reflected by the generous proportions of its garden and inside architecture alike. All of its villas have their own private pool; the suites have either a large balcony or a terrace. The downstairs suites additionally have a small patio with an outdoor shower. Kept in a beige marble, the bathrooms are very large and equipped with a tub and a separate shower.

Families may profit from the kids club, where children can participate in creative activities, in their own environment beside the Spa. They have their own pool, game room and even especially designed kid’s yoga lessons, while their parents enjoy a leisurely holiday.

For couples wishing to tie the knot, the hotel offers a wedding pavilion or a select spot on the premises or arranges their ceremony in the local church, complete with Mauritian choir.

A variety of sports invite to the discovery of the green nature and clear turquoise waters surrounding the resort. Some may prefer tennis or a refreshing swim, whereas other may chose some of the many other leisure activities offered or organised by the hotel including picnics, non-motorised water activities, excursions and golf.

Treatments in the famous Nira Spa include Ayurveda, Thalasso therapy, Watsu and a new, Mauritian based concept.

Two restaurants and the Pebble beach bar provide a refined cuisine based on local produce and wines from South Africa to minimise food miles and hence lessen the environmental impact.
