“Luxury 5-star thatched hotel resort on a stunning white sand beach. A range of suites offer varying levels of luxury - each slightly more decadent than the next. Delicious gourmet cuisine is served up and there's a sublime spa for total rejuvenation. A beach idyll.”

Royal Palm Beachcomber Luxury

This cosy and refined thatched five star nicknamed ‘Royal Calm’ sits on Grand Sable, a heavenly ivory sand cove in Grand Baie. It's a Leading Hotel of the World, with a focus on relaxing by the beach (a bevy of uniformed staff in attendance), lingering lunches at Le Bar Plage, and unwinding at the spa.
