Mauritius is an island nation located in the Indian Ocean off Africa’s East Coast and is also home to Hotel 20°Sud. With just 29 rooms and 7 suites, guests are sure to feel pampered and pleased during their stay. Rooms range from “Charm” to the more desired “Beachfront” rooms and suites. The hotel’s five “Austral Suites” include private plunge pools, a Jacuzzi, and large terraces overlooking the turquoise waters.

No matter where you stay, you’ll have access to a clawfoot tub, a separate shower, and two sinks built into beautiful wood furnishings—bits of antique furniture pepper each room, giving the hotel a truly distinct and personalized atmosphere. One of the unique things about this hotel is that guests have the opportunity to dine aboard the island’s oldest motorboat! The boat, named Lady Lisbeth, was built in 1929 and sets sail every evening with a maximum of just eight passengers. If this is something you’d like to do, make sure to have reservations set in advance!

What island hotel is complete with a spa? The “Comfort Zone” offers over 40 different treatment options ranging from waxing and manicures to hot stone massages and facials. Looking for a bit of adventure? The hotel offers excursions, including trips to the exotic market of Port-Louis, the Botanical Garden of Pamplemousse, the Sugar Cane Museum, and more! Swim, golf, dive, and sail your way to fun and relaxation at the Hotel 20°Sud!
