Mauritius 2025
Mauritius is one of the world’s top island destinations — and for good reason. With its turquoise lagoons, white-sand beaches, luxury resorts, and warm hospitality, it’s the perfect destination for honeymoons, family holidays, beach escapes, and romantic getaways.
As a travel agent with over 15 years of experience and personal travel to 74+ countries, Mauritius remains one of my favourite destinations to plan for clients. Here’s your complete guide to planning the perfect Mauritius holiday.
