On October 9th at 12 noon local time, a wild fire originating from the surrounding area spread to the The Grand Mauritian Resort & Spa in Turtle Bay, Mauritius.

The hotel was promptly evacuated and the local fire brigade got on site to control and extinguish the blaze. Thankfully, none of our hotel guests, associates or other persons were injured. All guests have been offered the opportunity to relocate to other properties nearby, including the resort’s sister property, Le Méridien Ile Maurice. Currently, the hotel is not accepting any reservations, and it is not clear when the resort will be fully operational again. Any questions regarding an existing or future reservation should be directed to the temporary reservation office.

Hotel management is working closely with the local authorities to investigate the cause of the fire. The safety, security and well-being of our guests and associates is our paramount priority.
