Long Beach 

Where memories are made

Innovative and contemporary, family-friendly Long Beach is set on the exceptional beach of Belle Mare.

Long Beach has that incredible view of the Indian Ocean typical of many luxury resorts on the island, but it’s the quirky architecture and cool atmosphere that provide its unique look and feel. The focus here is on providing a holiday that suits your lifestyle whether it’s energetic or laid-back. If you wish to do nothing but relax by the pool (or on the sand as you’re tended to by a team of dedicated beach butlers) then just relax and recharge; yet if you wish to fill your time with experiences – perhaps starting the day with a wake-up bicycle ride, joining a culinary journey as part of a Mauritian cooking class or discovering the art of mixology – Long Beach can provide.

Why we love Long Beach

  • With private spaces for adults and superb options for families, the resort has all-round appeal

  • From the soft white beach backed by gardens crammed with endemic plants to the chic architecture, it’s a visual delight

  • Among our favourite thoughtful touches are the snoozing spots around the grounds, from sea cribs to beachside pods

  • Encompassing everything from stylish Japanese cuisine to grilled fish on the beach, the food is perfectly pitched and delicious

The diverse dining at Long Beach is a real highlight.

Le Marché Breakfast is served buffet-style in the resort’s main restaurant, with an interactive buffet-style dinner at night where you can watch international dishes being prepared at the many live cooking stations.

Sapori  Feast on superb and authentic Italian dishes, from simple risottos to contemporary creations, at this welcoming lunch-and-dinner restaurant.

Chopsticks  Open for lunch and dinner, this relaxing eatery has bamboo-themed decor and a menu where the traditional flavours of China, Thailand and India have been given a modern spin.

Tides  If you’re spending your days lounging by the pool or beach, this toes-in-the-sand venue is the perfect spot for lunch or a candlelit seafood dinner.

Hasu  This adults-only restaurant serves excellent Japanese cuisine in an authentic setting, with a grill, sushi bar and yakitori counter.

Shores Drop into this lounge bar anytime from 11am to 11pm for a cold beer or signature cocktail and lagoon views to savour.

Tides Bar Enjoy a cooling beachside drink at the relaxed bar section of Tides restaurant.

Dinner at adults-only Hasu comes with a supplement, but we think it’s worth it for the sophisticated Japanese cuisine and refined ambience.

Deep in the gardens, surrounded by water, the Cinq Mondes Spa takes stress reduction to new levels. If you can’t find something on the comprehensive menu of globally inspired rituals (there are 12 treatment rooms in total, including three for couples), you can relax in the traditional hammam and the outdoor pavilion or be pampered in the beauty parlour.

Start the day with a yoga or qi gong session.

The air-conditioned fitness centre features the latest Technogym equipment, and you can also join a group class such as Body Attack, Body Combat or Tae Bo. Keep a lookout, too, for the occasional special fitness and wellness retreats as you’ll have to book in advance.

Long Beach is a Travelife Food Waste Champion, and anything that can’t be used by the kitchens is turned into fertiliser or donated to a local charity to be turned into feed for pigs. Many of the fruit, vegetables and herbs they use are grown in their own organic garden, cutting food miles to a minimum. The planting in the grounds is based around endemic species, with a nature trail where guests can learn more about them. The use of energy-efficient light bulbs, plus solar panels to heat water, has drastically reduced the resort’s use of electricity.

The island of Ile aux Cerfs is a short speedboat ride away and you can snorkel in the lagoon, explore the sprawling nature reserve or sign up to learn some skills at the golf academy*. Alternatively, the hotel spa offers treatments* for those over six years old.

Family Suites sleep two adults and three children comfortably, and have a separate living room with two sofa beds, as well as an extra shower room. Interconnecting rooms are also available with selected Junior Suites.

Babysitter services are available at extra charge and compulsory for kids under 2 years old and who are not potty trained. It has its own 33m² pool and kids can enjoy tennis, windsurfing and swimming clinics as well as environmental excursions and visit places of interest. Dinner time provides a special event every evening for kids, with a selection of menus, buffets and barbecues under the supervision of specially trained hostess.
