Shanti Ananda Maurice ranks as Mauritius' premier destination spa. It not only offers a blissfully authentic Mauritian experience, but also holistic healing through a combination of therapies - the ancient regimes of
Ayurveda and Yoga complemented by the latest techniques of Thalassotherapy and Aromatherapy. And just so you’re under no illusions as to its purpose or standards, it may help to know that ‘shanti’ means peace, ‘ananda’ means bliss and that its sister hotel in the Himalayas has been ranked the ‘World’s No 1 Spa’ by Condé Nast Traveller for the past three years.

The resort is spread over 36 acres of tropical gardens on the island’s south coast, its 61 junior suites and pool villas enjoying prime beachfront locations. The spacious junior suites are housed in individual 4 unit villa structures, those on the ground floor designated as beach front and those on the first floor as oceanview. Standard comforts include private balconies, LCD TVs and DVD players, although private gardens, outdoor salas and swimming pools also await in the luxury villas.

Naturally the focus of the resort is the 50,000 squarefoot spa located amidst tropical foliage and boasting many water features. Comprising no less than 25 different treatment rooms, the holistic wellness, weight, fitness and stress management programmes are suitably complemented by ESPA body and beauty treatments. The morning walks, fitness sessions, sets of tennis and meditation classes all assist with the
process of aligning the body, mind and spirit, whilst the wholesome cuisine helps to complete the process.
