I have been watching Mauritius prices for a few weeks now and have not been able to find any under £1,000. If anyone else out there can find an all inclusive break less than this please be fair and share, its a pretty expensive destination

There are a few dates to choose from at Similiar prices so be sure to check through from your Local Departure airports too in May and June eg:

22nd June flying from Gatwick

11th May flying from Gatwick

Ignore the first price you see when you first follow the link, it drops in price slightly when you go through the booking process.

These prices are based on 1 weeks stay at the 4* Star Blumarinie Attitude which is rated 4/5 on Trip Advisor. These are First choice holidays however booked via Holiday Hypermarket you can shave some off the price.

For slightly more you can upgrade to the amazing 5* Star Lux Grand Guabe which is provided by Thomson.

Mauritius is a fascinating, world-in-one-island slice of paradise. Its very name of conjures up images of tropical luxury and stupendous extravagance. While in many destinations famed for cobalt-blue seas, white sandy beaches and luxury hotels, you may eventually find yourself wishing for something to do besides sunbathing and swimming, it’s often hard to know what to do next in Mauritius. The island is loaded with historic sights, cultural diversity, geographic variation and almost limitless activities to distract you from the daily grind of beach and pool. But perhaps its single biggest asset is the relaxed charm of its warm and welcoming people.

Mauritius is the most developed of the Mascarene Islands, but with a bit of effort and resourcefulness you can escape the crowds and find your own patch. The smells, noises and bustle of the mercantile capital Port Louis, Africa’s wealthiest city, are never far away, while the busy garment markets in the Central Plateau towns of Quatre Bornes and Curepipe and Black River Gorges National Park's dramatic virgin forests give the lie to Mauritius being just another beach destination. But what beaches! From the stunning sand-rimmed lagoons and popular wide public beaches to the picturesque islands off the country’s coastline, there’s truly something for everyone here. Add to this the joys of Chinese, Indian, French and African cuisine, the rousing beat of séga music and the infectious party spirit of the locals, and you soon understand why Mauritius really is so many people’s idea of paradise on earth.

    Aren't the above photos Bora Bora and The Maldives? There is only one hotel in Mauritius with over water villas....
    Anyway, unimportant niggle, another great deal Stacey! Hot.

    Just did a bit more digging as I was curious and have been overwater bungalow honeymoon shopping for two years now and I can confirm that the top picture is The Maldives, the second is The St Regis in Bora Bora, the third is a generic HD Desktop photo, probably of the Maldives. The last one is from The Residence in.... Mauritius!!! That Bora Bora picture gets used even by semi official Mauritius tourist websites. How cheeky. I know I am being ****, but don't want anyone being misled ;o)
    It doesn't need to use fake photos, it's meant to be beautiful in its own right so I have been told.

    I'm half Mauritan andcI would advise anyone who is thinking of going on holiday this year to book up and go. It is an amazing island and do much to do other yhan sun bathing. Castella offers walking and interaction with lions and safari. Water sports or hiking. The markets and capital Port Louis is an experience too. If thats not enough you can take island trips to the most amazing places lle a cerf is one of them. Rum factory, Botanical gardens and Underwater excursions are a definite to do. You will never be bored. I have just returned after a month with my 18 month old daughter and it was the best time so far in my 32 years of going. I found that they are so helpful and child orientated even in the resturants. If you looking for a bargain there are now many great villas and apartments to rent for smaller budgets especially in Grand Baie. Take a trip you will never forget. Counting the days till I can return.

    Wonder if the price cut is anything to do recent stories of women running … Wonder if the price cut is anything to do recent stories of women running scared from Mauritius due to fear of rapists and drug lords. I heard a lady say on TV that Mauritius is not the paradise it once was. Is it that bad? Is Mauritius safe for women?



    doubt it, prices didnt drop in Tenerife when a lady got their head chopped off, and Im not seeing any drop in India prices despite a lady getting raped and murdered there in the last wee or even cottages in wales since that pregnant lady got raped and murdered a couple of years back xxx

    We went to Mauritius on our honeymoon and it was incredible. One thing I will say though is, check the seasonal weather for each side of the island. I know that during our summer (their winter) it is very windy on the East side of the island. We visited the West and it was lovely. I'm not sure about other times of year but May and June are probably really good times to go (we went in August and it was sunny but not that hot - about 25C average). Good price. Heat added.

    My wife and took our 18 and 16 year olds last year. All inclusive hotel and water activities included meant they had plenty to keep them occupied. We stayed on the east coast at merville beach weather was similar to that of MrsT. Went south to swim with dolphins and to visit Casela wildlife park too. Well worth it holiday if a lifetime. A bit overcast at times as it was winter there only rained 3 times for a short burst and was dry within 30 mins. Reccomended we take taxis to go out at night when we got there though so we didn't see much nightlife outside the hotel which had entertainment and theme nights every night. My wife and I plan to go back in future. For info we got 10 nights from Manchester via Dubai for 1450 each but ours was only a 3 ¹/² star hotel. Good find Stacey.

    As for the tv reporting about that women I had this discussion only yesterday with other Mauritans and its a joke I went 8 weeks ago just myself my mum and my mother in law and my 18 month year old daughter and I've been going for 32 years its very safe I've never had any problems. Every place you go has crime your never going to get away from it only last week my grandmother house was burgled here in England. I honestly am more apprehensive to walk in my iwn town late at night than I would ever be in Mauritius also the fact that so many people especially locals often spend time outside their houses that there is always a presence of people.

    Our daughter decided she wanted to get married on the beach there, so off we went. Four of us (at my expense) for two weeks. As Craig Revel Horwood would say A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !

    Thanks guys I really appreciate all the helpful information and nice comments because like I said earlier, this has been a little project of mine for a while now, for the weeks I have been watching Ive not seen anything under £1000pp.

    flights can be picked up on Thomas Cook as late deals for around £500-£600 but then to find some decent accommodation, luggage, transfers etc again its well in excess of this Unless of course you do one of these hotels for a couple of quid business.

    Thanks again xx

    That's what bothers me too. It looks beautiful, but I'm not a scuba diver, what do you do every day. I'm on my own with my son, we like beaches, but we want to play, dig, laugh, without trespassing on others.... Heat though Stacey, great find!

    Also did my honeymoon in Mauritius. Fantastic holiday and the 5* hotel we had was fab (heritage resort & spa). Place its amazing. Only word of warning I would add is that compared to other comparable places such as Maldives etc the water is a lot colder than you may expect.

    Hot! Mauritius is a beautiful island with very warm friendly people, plenty of things to do
  31. deleted1015662's avatar
    Have been to Mauritius 7 times now as my wife is Mauritian and I can agree with the comments, it is truly beautiful. That is a fantastic price as I am used to paying this price for just the flights alone! There are a couple of disadvantages 1 being the weather at this time of year (great if you don't like it to hot) and the location very commercialised and not the best beaches IMO. if you are visiting Mauritius I would definitely visit the west coast as this is where you will find the best beaches.

    Great price, well spotted - Heat!

    If you go in May/June it will rain as it is the rainy/monsoon season in Mauritius. It doesn't rain constantly and the sun still shines and the weather's hot.

    Mauritius is not boring and there's plenty to do - people are friendly and food is cheap outside of the hotels. The beaches are never packed as the locals don't appear to appreciate the beauty. The sea will be cold as this time of year. If you want peace and quiet, I would suggest the Seychelles which is two hours away.

    This is cheap for a holiday in Mauritius... the cheapest flights alone are around £800pp (depending on where/how you fly there) and the hotels are notoriously outstanding.

    The picture with the two small islands doesn't look like Mauritius. The picture with the parasol looks like Mauritius.

    I am half Mauritan and I would advise anyone that is evening thinking of taking a holiday this year to go and book right away. While there make sure to do Castella walking with the lions or just the safari ride through there enclosure. I have just returned after a month with my 18 month old and anyone that says they'd be bored are very wrong you could fill your days with trips, beachs, hiking, water sports and markets. Mauritius is amazing and beautiful. However if your looking for longer and a bit more if the less tourist prices for accommodation there are many independent villas and apartments for rent. Also make sure to look at trips to lle a cerf.

    Unfortunately, there are many Mauritius websites using photos of Bora Bora and The Maldives, so when you Google search Mauritius, they're the results you get. So you can't really blame Deallady.
