Mauritius · Grand Gaube, north coast
Kelly Hoppen's retro-chic rework of a north-coast classic, wrapped around two beaches and a lagoon, with a food line-up that ranges from Peruvian to Creole smokehouse.
Retro-chic on a double bay
The property
Grand Gaube is the LUX* flagship for design: Kelly Hoppen rebuilt it in a warm 1960s-riviera key — terracotta, rattan, banana-leaf green — across a headland with two distinct beaches. The dining is the other reason to come: Peruvian-Argentinian at INTI, a Creole table, the group's Beach Rouge, and Bodrum-style Mediterranean. The north-coast lagoon keeps the water calm year-round.
Where you sleep
Rooms, suites and villas across the headland. Which one is right depends on the month and who is travelling — that is the first thing we will ask.

What makes it itself
The sand in front of the resort is its own, so the walk from your room to the water crosses nobody else.
Treatments on the property — massage, steam room, beauty services, so a bad-weather afternoon has somewhere to go.
Run from the resort, which matters here: the boat leaves from your own jetty rather than an hour up the coast.
Supervised hours for the children, which is the difference between a holiday and a fortnight of childcare with a view.
