 Chalets Chamarel 

Up high, down to earth

Just 14 ocean-view chalets are perched on the Chamarel hills of southwest Mauritius and feel like a secret the island has kept for grown-ups who want to slow down.

This is a small, low-key hideaway, stitched into the hills of Chamarel. The chalets look out toward the theatrical silhouette of Le Morne and the Indian Ocean beyond, and the mood is intimate, a little romantic, and gloriously unhurried. You come here for birdsong mornings, outrageously good sunsets, and for the sense that the real Mauritius is just outside the door.

Why we love Chalets Chamarel

  • The panorama from the hillside is gorgeous all day, but sunset steals the show, turning the ocean apricot and rose.

  • The Seven Coloured Earths, waterfalls, and the Rhumerie de Chamarel are practically neighbours, so days out are easy and local.

  • With only guests aged fifteen and above, the atmosphere stays peaceful. Think more conversation than cannonballs.

  • The chalets feel thoughtfully put together, stylish without shouting about it, with a relaxed Creole feeling that lets the views do the heavy lifting.

Chalets Chamarel sits in the southwest interior, close to the Black River Gorges and the village of Chamarel, with the beaches of Le Morne and the west coast about twenty minutes downhill.
From Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport it is roughly a one-hour drive through sugarcane plains and up into the cooler Chamarel hills.

  • Good to Know

Meals happen at the SeaForest Restaurant beside the infinity pool, a relaxed spot with sweeping views over the forests and the ocean. The kitchen serves local and international dishes, including estate-sourced venison alongside other seasonal options, and opens for breakfast, lunch and dinner against that panoramic backdrop.

What's Included

Half Board • Breakfast at SeaForest Restaurant • Dinner at SeaForest Restaurant (set menu: starter, main course and dessert or selected choice of à la carte).

This isn’t a boot camp in paradise. There’s no spa programme or timetable to obey, just a pool beside the restaurant that’s perfect for gentle dips with a view rather than serious lengths. It’s not huge, but it suits the mood exactly, a place to cool off and drift for a while. Beyond that, the surrounding lanes and forest trails invite low-key walks more than punishing workouts.

The chalets sit inland, so the sea is a short drive rather than at the doorstep, but the hotel can help arrange sea-facing excursions along the coast. Big-game fishing trips, catamaran outings with stops for snorkelling, and visits to crystal lagoon spots are all within reach, giving you easy access to the Indian Ocean’s calm waters and coral reefs.

This is an adults only hotel, welcoming guests 15 years and above.
