As Mauritius gets ready to celebrate 52 years of independence on the 12th of March, Veranda Resorts honours the country in which its hotels were born and where it has operated for the past 38 years.

Veranda Resorts cares deeply about protecting the planet and engaging with neighbouring communities. Here are some of our many eco-friendly initiatives!

Laurent, our guide from ‘Explore Nou Zil,’ meets us a 8.45am in front of Veranda Paul et Virginie Hotel & Spa. On today’s agenda is the discovery of the North of the island on an electric bike: a trendy activity that combines sports and cultural immersion. Here’s a glimpse of this unforgettable, hair-in-the-wind excursion!

World Ocean Day was celebrated on the 8th of June 2019. Among the many events held worldwide were an array of activities organised by the Veranda Tamarin hotel, on Mauritius’ west coast, to preserve Tamarin’s famous bay and the surrounding area. We look back on a day honouring the ocean.

Fancy turning back time in a 1950s vintage car? We took Veranda Resorts’ beautiful Morris Minor for a spin along the north coast of Mauritius over the course of a weekend. Fasten your seatbelts!

Spending a holiday in Mauritius in one of our hotels is a must, but it would be a shame not to experience the local Mauritian lifestyle while you’re here! But how do you find out about the best places to eat and go out off the beaten track? For that, you need to ask a local. Veranda Resorts’ team members give us their tips.
