Starwood has launched St. Regis Mauritius Resort - its first St. Regis Hotels & Resorts property in Africa. Located in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Le Morne, the resort features 172 guestrooms and suites.
St. Regis Mauritius Resort houses the region’s first Iridium Spa featuring 12 treatment rooms with ocean views.
The 22,730 sq ft (2,112sq m) spa uses beauty and skincare brands Valmont and Bella Luccè.
Spa facilities include a salon, relaxation lounge, spa pools, sauna and steam rooms, as well as a dedicated men's grooming salon and a 24-hour fitness club.
Designed by South African firm Stauch Vorster Architects with interiors by Trevor Julius of design firm dsgn, The St. Regis Mauritius Resort is modelled on a Victorian sugar-baron's manor house set in a historical estate.
There are six dining options at the resort including signature restaurant Simply India created by Michelin-starred celebrity chef Atul Kochhar. Other options include French, Asian and African inspired restaurants.
Other facilities include private 24-seat cinema, a Drawing Room for indoor entertainment, a swimming pool, as well as a library and a tennis court.
There is also a luxurious beachfront St. Regis Villa featuring a private entrance, four bedrooms with private pools and gardens, entertainment and dining areas, an infinity pool, a bar and private spa treatment room.
Paul James, global brand leader St. Regis said: "The opening of The St. Regis Mauritius Resort truly marks an important milestone for the brand. Celebrating Mauritius' rich and diverse cultural heritage, we look forward to welcoming guests to the best address on the island, offering bespoke service and refined elegance both befitting of the destination and true to the St. Regis legacy."
The St. Regis Mauritius Resort follows recent openings in Hainan and Shenzhen in China; Doha and Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi in the Middle East; and Bal Harbour in the United States.
