The Grand Mauritian, a Luxury Collection Resort and Spa, has unveiled its new-look designer beach, providing guests with improved access straight from their villas to the beach-front, as well as stunning landscaped features.

Over-looking the marine park of Turtle Bay, the luxury resort, which celebrated its second anniversary last month, occupies one of the most beautiful locations on the island.

The new-look shoreline is now a quarter of a mile of beach and secluded bathing areas. Two natural basalt-rock pools have been discovered in the sea and provide the perfect safe areas for bathing for the family, whilst the rest of the shore is a mixture of sandy beach and shady retreats under a mixture of palm and casuarina trees.

General Manager, Mr. Jan Bundgaard, commented,’ Despite our beach being one of the most beautiful on the island, we also recognised that extending the access to the sea for our guests was extremely important. There were many issues to consider before undertaking the work, no less important being the care taken to protect both the natural beauty of our coastline as well as any potential environmental impact. That is why we are both delighted and excited at our re-styled beach. It is both in harmony with our environment but also picture perfect for our guests.’
