Located by a quaint fishing village on a secluded peninsula with a stunning vista of the pretty islets in the North, the newly revamped LUX* Grand Gaube offers total privacy and a blissfully relaxed atmosphere in the form of a true island getaway. Spacious contemporary rooms by designer Kelly Hoppen offer an eclectic retro-chic flavour and are nestled in tranquil gardens of coconut trees and banyans and face a turquoise lagoon.

There is much to do whatever your preference, from a plunge in one of the two swimming pools (one is adult only), the two picture-perfect beaches or the serene lagoon. Take a day trip around the island of Mauritius to enjoy the buzzing Grand Baie, which is only 10 minutes away, or the bustling markets of Goodlands. In the evening, enjoy dinner in one of the global influenced restaurants with Peruvian and Argentinian cuisine at INTI, authentic Creole flavours at Banyan, a Turkish twist at Bodrum Blue or the beautifully designed Beach Rouge dining club.

The LUX* Hotels & Resorts have real vision and always surprise you with imaginative special touches such as a trendy pop-up Cinema Paradiso which can be found on the beach complete with popcorn and lounge cushions under the night sky and its own brand of water as well as its signature coffee roasted on the island. There’s also Phone Home using the iconic red phone box for free international calls to all landlines, its own brand ICI ice cream stall, plus a secret honesty bar that is there one day and gone the next.

There’s a golf driving range and access to international golf courses. If you want to relax, surrender to tension-soothing treatments at the LUX* Me Spa or enjoy yoga, whilst the more active can participate in tennis and water sports.

Reviews

Friendly staff, nice large rooms

A. Price

Posted on: 3rd January 2024

Friendly staff, nice large rooms, a couple of options for sunbathing and plenty of activities for teenagers to do. Food was generally very good, although the beach/dancing theme night (at an extra cost) was a complete waste of £70ph. I would recommend this for up to a14 days stay for families,

Overall Lux is a very impressive hotel

Overall Lux is a very impressive hotel, beautiful decor, pools, beach etc, however it did not compare to the Lux belle mare which we visited a few years ago. Particularly the restaurants were poor in comparison. Belle mare was incredible but the gran gaube was average/good
