Le Jadis Beach Resort & Wellness

Le Jadis Beach Resort & Wellness is a boutique hideaway along Turtle Bay on Mauritius northwest coast, where just 54 suites and one private villa sit in a lush, intimate setting. This is not the kind of sprawling resort you can get lost in; it is smaller, calmer, and deliberately so. Most suites come with their own pool, which is a remarkable ratio for a property of this size, and makes each stay feel genuinely private.

The accommodation spans from the 72 square metre Luxury Lagoona Suites up to the Imperial Beach Jet Pool Villa, a substantial 770 square metre property that can sleep multiple groups in comfort. Dining is well covered across four venues: Sylea for European dishes, Oryza for Pan Asian, Passion Creole for lunch with a swim-up bar, and Cruso on the Beach for seafood. The spa has six treatment rooms, a hydrotherapy jets pool, sauna, and hammam, and the wellness offering extends to yoga, tai chi, and meditation sessions.

Watersports are generous for a hotel of this size, with complimentary sailing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, waterskiing, glass-bottom boat trips, and group snorkelling. Chargeable options include game fishing, sunset cruises, and catamaran trips. On land there are cooking classes, table tennis, billiards, and a games area, so there is plenty to fill a week without ever feeling the need to leave.

Le Jadis suits couples and solo travellers who want a high level of personal space, genuine relaxation, and a well-run spa without the scale and bustle of a larger resort. It is polished, discreet, and very comfortable.
