Over in the kitchens, you’ll find an intoxicating mix of Mauritian and Indian cuisine. Two resort restaurants serve up that mouth-watering mix of fare and, the best part is, there are only 75 rooms. So you’ll never be stuck among the crowds.

But when you’re not out exploring the local scene, you could be making the most of your time at this trendy beach club-esque resort.

6. Radisson Blu Poste Lafayette Resort & Spa

Radisson Blu Poste Lafayette is without doubt one of the best resorts for couples in Mauritius. Its beachfront positioning over on the east coast of the island promises quick access to lively locations like Grand Baie, while the stretch of white sand on your doorstep will help keep you grounded. 

One of the best things about staying at Radisson Blu Poste Lafayette Resort & Spa is that you get to more than double up your restaurant selection by going all-inclusive.

The BLU Passport initiative allows all-in guests to make use of the facilities at its sister resort Radisson Blu Azuri which is just 10 minutes down the road – a short journey that can be negotiated via a free resort shuttle. More on that resort in a moment. 

So, by booking one stay in Poste Lafayette, you could actually access over 10 bars and restaurants, as well as 2 staggering beaches, spas, gyms, swimming pools and a host of water sports and other activities.

The Ying to Radisson Blu Poste Lafayette’s Yang. Radisson Blu Azuri Resort & Spa is another incredibly beautiful destination located in the stunning little town of Haute Rive. 

With rooms offering garden, beach or beachfront views, you have the ability to place your dream landscape in your windows every day. Plus, when you decide to venture away from the resort, you can either try the delight of the sister resort or head out into Azuri Village. 

Azuri village is the small complex you’ll find yourself at the heart of during your stay. Walking around the village you’ll find shops, restaurants and bars. There’s also a nearby 9-hole golf course where your green fees are already paid – so it’d be rude not to try a round, right?!

If you prefer a more sequestered and authentic escape, then the final stop on our selection of the best resorts for couples in Mauritius will be perfect. Sure, Le Palmiste Resort & Spa offers fewer restaurant and bar options than its predecessors on this countdown. But what it lacks in eateries it more than makes up for in beauty. 

Set in the heart of picturesque Trou Aux Biches village, Le Palmiste dips its toes in the sand of one of the most beautiful beaches in the area, using charming thatched rooves to promote a more wholesome island vibe. Or, if the beaches aren’t your scene, why not take some much-needed R&R time alongside the 3 resort pools? 

Although, there is just one resort restaurant at Le Palmiste, this awesome eatery serves up authentic Mauritian favourites. So you can try something new during your break. Plus, if you prefer a change of scenery, there are more eating options out there in Trou Aux Biches.
