A new experience awaits guests at Bel Ombre, on the island south-west coast.The 4-star Tamassa stands at the end of a long avenue of mature coconut palms towering skywards.A picture postcard landscape stretches across sugarcane fields to the mountains beyond. The south-west is the most unspoilt part of Mauritius, with spectacular walks and drives through lush, tropical hillsides and a range of open-air activities in beautiful countryside.In front of the hotel, beyond the sandy beach, lies a turquoise lagoon that almost blends into the skyline.

The sea air is invigorating and the ripples of the waves gently calming. Beyond, lie thousands of miles of open sea.The traditional style architecture ideally suits the tropical setting, with beautifully landscaped gardens. The buildings seem at one with the environment. The decor is breathtakingly contemporary, with clean lines and bold use of colour. The atmosphere is one of eternal youth, friendly, cheerful and enthusiastic. Tamassa is a new Mauritian experience!

A tropical holiday is not complete without the luxury of a massage or beauty treatment. The spa, in its exotic setting, adds to that feeling of complete relaxation and well-being.Gentle shades of green and khaki blend harmoniously with wooden fittings and the surrounding greenery, in an atmosphere of warm, tropical contentment.The spa has 16 treatment rooms (14 double), a 12m long pool, a whirlpool, a sauna, a hammam, two changing rooms, 6 large relaxation beds, a hydro therapy room, a spa boutique, a hair dresser and a beauty salon for manicure and pedicure.The 14 double treatment rooms all have a private garden outside, so guests can enjoy the idyllic surroundings.
