The Oberoi, Mauritius

"Roughly 550 miles east of Madagascar, Mauritius has drawn attention from travelers over the years for its remote, pristine beaches. And the country’s Oberoi resort takes full advantage of those famous stretches of sand with its location on Turtle Bay, a natural marine park. The resort is spread across 20 acres of gardens, with villas and pavilions covered with traditional thatched roofs, sunken marble bathrooms, and private garden views. Select villas come with private heated swimming pools. Dine under the stars at one of the resort’s al fresco bars and restaurants, with cuisines ranging from fine Indian dishes to smoked meats seasons from the on-site herb garden."
