The gloriously refurbished One & Only Le Touessrok offers
pure indulgence in a spectacular tropical setting. Whilst the
original Mauritian architecture remains, sumptuous new suites
with breathtaking sea vistas have been developed on an island
away from the main hotel. Other rooms stretch along powdery white
beaches on the mainland, within easy reach of the Ile aux Cerfs.
A heated pool and luxurious spa invite total relaxation. |
