The Heritage Le Telfair Golf & Spa Resort is an invitation to wander along the alleys of time, back to when Mauritius was a strategic stopover along the Sugar and Spice Routes. Ideal for couples, families or groups of friends, the 5 star accommodation is designed with the character of former plantation houses, looking almost like a replica of an ancient painting. Nestling between the ocean and the foothills of a mountain range, in a rolling landscape crossed by peaceful rivers, this world-renowned luxury property is a tribute to the Irish botanist and naturalist, Charles Edward Telfair. The latter and his wife, Annabella – whose name has been given to the hotel’s main restaurant – played an instrumental role in the development of the Domaine de Bel Ombre, where they lived in the 19th century. The Heritage Le Telfair Golf & Spa Resort carries on the genuine spirit of Mauritian hospitality with which Charles and Annabella used to greet their friends and acquaintances. A member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, the resort offers spacious and luxury accommodation combined with a decor reminiscent of olden day Mauritius, refined cuisine with a thousand and one flavours as well as an abundance of leisure activities, both on land and water.
