Heritage Awali Golf & Spa Resort Heritage Awali Golf & Spa Resort
About
Heritage Awali Golf & Spa Resort is immersed in the multi-cultural landscape of a cosmopolitan island, wistfully reminiscing on Mauritius' African lifestyle.
As the best all-inclusive in Mauritius it's probably apt that 'Awali' actually means 'first' in Swahili. And that African influence subtly sweeps through the warm ochre, tan, and saffron tones in the spacious rooms.
But relaxation is key when it comes to Heritage Awali, the Seven Colours Spa and Umuzi Sports Centre provide a bounty of activities designed to release all tensions. In addition, what else helps with relaxation? Great food. Luckily, the resort boasts a plethora of dining options which stretch from Africa to Europe and beyond.
Meanwhile, when you're not travelling the world from your dining table, you could be exploring the local golf scene - which is thriving by the way. Golf-lovers can indulge their inner McIlroy by taking on the Matkovich & Hayes designed Heritage Golf Club golf course. Where your green fees are already taken care of. It'd be rude not to, right?
If you're searching for a wholesome escape which places you in the lap of luxury while offering hat tips to other cultures. Then Heritage Awali Golf & Spa Resort is your perfect match.
- The best all-inclusive in Mauritius, located in the exclusive Domaine de Bel Ombre area
- Outstanding range of gourmet dining and premium drinks
