Delightful Anahita

Four Seasons Mauritius at Anahita is one of the favourites of Select Collection customers for its poised perfection and style. The pool villa product is really exclusive, while food & beverage, spa and all sporting facilities are excellent – with a special mention for the scenic championship golf course, against the backdrop of the Bambou Mountains.

On my catch-up trip to Mauritius, we visited Four Seasons Anahita for lunch and a hotel inspection.


Here are a few snaps of that useful and enjoyable occasion….

Our host was Bernard Ramen, Director of Sales and Marketing
All villas have sparkling private pools and a feeling of exclusivity, whether tucked away in a private tropical garden, facing the natural lagoonside mangroves or one of the manicured beaches.

A double sunbed for dreaming by the sparkling private pool of your villa

Now for lunch...

We were not the only visitors to lunch
And enjoyed a fabulous meal....

In paradise with St Geran

Mauritius is my second tropical home. We at Select Collection were the first in Sweden to invest in sending elite clients to that beautiful Indian Ocean island. Ever since then I have kept up to date with the charms of  our Mauritian hotels and am in Mauritius now to catch up.

One&Only Le St Géran is just what you expect in a tropical paradise. Thousands of palm trees, and a sandy beach washed by crystal sea. On top of that it is imbued with class, fun and great food & beverage.



Now it will take a new forward leap with refurbishments of all rooms, to be reduced in number from 163 to 143. The ocean suites are real havens in the flawless style of sister hotel One&Only The Palm with the tropical mood of muted white.  There will be 35 of these each with living room and beautiful wooden terrace. 

On my short stay at beloved Le St Geran I saw a new sample room and all the impressive plans.

New room look - with a huge walk in closet between elegant bedroom and gorgeous bathroom




Ocean suite. Lovely wooden terraces furnished for outdoor living

All the restaurants will have major renovations,  Our clients who love pool villa living will be delighted with another new opportunity – 48 villas to be ready 2019 on the old 9 hole golf course. At present they have one gorgeous 2 bedroom pool villa.

The hotel will close from February for almost the whole of next year to launch the totally made-over Le Saint Géran in time for Christmas.

Here are some more of my snaps. The tropical ambience....
