Get festive with your feet in the sand
Are you tired of the questions yet? ;
“What are we doing at Christmas?” “Is it at your place or mine?” “What should we do on New Year’s Eve?”
No more debating – come and spend the festive period in Mauritius!
Whether you are a couple, family, group of friends or going solo, our eco-conscious hotels will welcome you. That’s Christmas, New Year’s Eve and starting 2025 in the sunshine all sorted.
Gifts under the palm tree
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way... to Mauritius! With us, the festivities start early, with DIY decorating workshops!
On 24 December, there will be:
• A dedicated cocktail party and a Christmas meal with local flavours
• Shows in keeping with the theme (including a choir and Christmas entertainment)
• A live concert
On 25 December (the big day), treat yourself to:
• Share gifts with your loved ones while in your swimwear
• In the kitchen, we will be preparing a special Christmas buffet
And what about children?
In the early hours of the morning, we'll be handing out gender-neutral and local gifts (yes, our commitments don't take a holiday)! Even Father Christmas will be there. Will he be wearing flip-flops? You'll have to come and find out
Our festive menu
The festive period without an indulgent meal is like Father Christmas without a beard: impossible.
So, tuck into our gourmet buffets on 24, 25 and 31 December and dine in style! Each of our seven hotels will be rolling out a banquet, with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options available.
The traditional lunch on 25 December will be a brunch at Tropical Attitude and Lagoon Attitude!

Spend New Year's Eve under the sun
To end the year in style, we start with a gourmet meal, set to live local music. The evening continues in sound and light with a show on the beach (eco-responsible, of course). No fireworks, to protect the lagoon, but a traditional fire performance until the big countdown... 3, 2, 1, Banané!
That means Happy New Year here in Mauritius
Start the year right!
On land or at sea, you can enjoy a wide range of activities: stand-up paddleboarding at sunrise, catamaran day trips, yoga on the beach, snorkelling and glass-bottom boat tours. Or how about a street food snack at Taba-J, learning to play a local instrument, an eco-workshop, tennis, beach volleyball, or discovering off-the-beaten-track itineraries with our Otentik mobile app... We've got something to keep you busy.
And when the sun goes down, with a glass of Takamaka in your hand, enjoy our music programme: live concerts, DJ sets or a music evening around the pool.
It makes a change from the Christmas movie marathon!

Need a last-minute gift?
Visit Otentik Bazar to get those last-minute gifts or bring back the best of Mauritius for your loved ones: wooden games, natural cosmetics, cool and sustainable clothes... You'll only find products made locally by talented craftspeople! A good reason to (re)celebrate Christmas in January!
Spa time at POZ
At our spa, you don't need to think about the year gone by or the one to come.
You just need to POZ (pause). The treatments offered in our spas are inspired by the surrounding nature. They also use handmade ingredients grown here on the island, and inspired by local rituals and traditions....
Kids can spa, too! The treatments are available in a mini version adapted to their skin (and their patience).
Travel responsibly!
- A Christmas of solidarity for Mauritian children
