Mauritius · St Félix, south coast
A spacious wellness resort on the undeveloped south coast, with one of the largest spas in the Indian Ocean and suites that start big and grow to villas with private pools.
Wellness-led on the wild south
The property
Shanti Maurice sits on the south coast, where sugar cane runs down to a coastline the developers never crowded. The Nira spa is the point: vast, serious about Ayurveda, with resident practitioners and programmes that go well past pampering. Suites are among the largest entry rooms on the island, the rum shack keeps things human, and the south's wind-clean air and empty beaches do the rest.
Where you sleep
Junior suites through to double-bedroom pool villas. 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.
