Most people anticipate a holiday as time to rest and recharge while getting away from it all, but that need not mean flopping by a pool all day, every day – even in a tropical-island paradise. Not at C Mauritius, anyway. This lively hotel has put fun at the top of the agenda with an irresistible invitation to “let go of your grown-up concerns and reconnect with your inner child”. C is for cool, for cocktails and for cannonballing into the swimming pool.
Carmen from Amazing Africa departed from O.R Tambo International Airport to C Mauritius located on a picture-perfect bay on the island’s east coast, with white-sand beaches and an enticing lagoon that offers a natural setting to rediscover the joy of playfulness.

The Clubhouse is stocked with board games, and it’s also the base for energetic sessions on sea and sand. That’s not just water activities such as kayaking, paddle boarding and aqua volley or beach contests of bocce (similar to the French game of pétanque), volleyball and football. Like the best party organisers, C Mauritius introduces new pleasures – anyone for a bounce on the floating trampolines or a water gun battle?
New friendships can be forged through beer pong, treasure hunts and sand-castle building competitions. Tennis and golf are on offer too, as well as the opportunity to explore the island on inland treks and wildlife-spotting boat trips. A party atmosphere runs late into the night with live music and DJ sets on the beach and the music starts pumping as the sun goes down.
Refreshments, too, come with an appealing family-friendly twist. Wok’N’Roll serves sizzling Asian fusion food overlooking the spectacular beach. At the heart of the resort, Chow and Carafe is styled as the ‘Cpicerie’, where you can grab a coffee and doughnut on the go, or pick up a bento box for the beach. The deli-style concept allows guests to take a laissez-faire approach. Best of all, it’s part of the all-inclusive package. Not having to face daily budget assessments is a key element in reconnecting with your inner child.
The hotel is dedicated to people who are curious by nature and dream of escaping the everyday worries of adulthood. Who doesn’t dream of a place where you can regain the free spirit of youth and forget the worries of growing up in a natural and playful environment? It all starts at the Cwings, giant swings overlooking the ocean and the Club House, a nautical hut with fun beach activities. It continues with “Concoctor”, a unique cocktail machine with an original retro design to Cascade, a huge shower under which guests can dance on the beach. These “C-ignatures” are at the heart of the C Resort experiences.
And while you’re in the midst of this nostalgic flair, you can really relax in the modern, boho-chic designed rooms. Numerous local influences shine through in the decoration, so guests can immerse themselves in the island’s attitude to life. This also achieves the perfect balance between casual relaxation and a lively atmosphere.
C is also for chill. If you seek quiet time, there’s ample space to relax with a book in the sun, enjoy private time, or do yoga by the pool. At C Spa, a treatment menu promises purification and restoration. And when sleep calls, head back to an air-conditioned haven. Deluxe rooms have king-size beds and swinging sofas on the terrace; Prestige rooms offer double beds and a furnished terrace. Both have private mini-bars for midnight feasts.
Last but not least, one of the best things about C Mauritius is the hotel’s commitment to protecting its environment. The brand proactively works with local businesses and collaboratively works with eco-conscious organisations to ensure that everything from the soap in the rooms to the clothes in the gift shop is produced sustainability.
Sharing the same DNA and drive but with a different personality, C Resorts is the sister brand of luxury Constance Hotels & Resorts -the award-winning collection of luxury hotels located throughout the Indian Ocean. The concept behind the C Resorts brand is ‘Nature’s Playground’ –combining the simple beauty of the natural surroundings with lively vibes that encourages guests to let go, run wild and share unforgettable moments.
Here you can let go, forget about everyday life and allow yourself to feel nostalgic. C Resorts Mauritius is where you should be booking your next stay! This is what we call a holi-yay!
