Tamassa

Tamassa – Creole for ‘party’ – is a vibrant all-inclusive four-star beach resort in Bel Ombre, south Mauritius.

Hidden amongst tropical gardens and fringed by white sandy beaches, a cobalt lagoon and imposing mountains, this four-star, family-friendly resort makes for an action-packed luxury holiday to Mauritius. There is a whole host of exciting activities on your doorstep, from a watersports centre, diving centre and four pools to a spa, cycling tours and tennis courts.

The rooms are stylish and contemporary, with beautiful Mauritian touches, and each has an incredible sea view. Part of the ‘LUX’ group of hotels, Tamassa of course has the renowned LUX* Me Spa, movie nights on the beach, fantastic coffee and wine, and a 50/50 mix of activities and relaxation. As well as land and water sports, you can simply unwind within the lush gardens and play on the giant chess board, take a dip in one of the four pools, or read a book whilst swinging in a hammock.

Picture yourself soaking up the sun on the powdery beach whilst marvelling at the surrounding coconut groves and sugarcane fields; tuck into a juicy homemade gourmet burger from the street food truck; and as dusk settles, listen to the rhythmic live music and lively evening entertainment, or head to the nightclub.

The crystal-clear waters are ideal for a whole host of watersports, whilst golfers can enjoy a few rounds at the spectacular Heritage Golf Course. Children will have hours of fun at the PLAY Kids’ Club, and mum and dad can enjoy yoga classes and use the sauna, steam room and gym. Complimentary facilities and activities include glass-bottom boat trips, the use of bicycles to explore the island, and all food and drinks at the restaurants and bars.

Evenings are just as important as daytime at Tamassa, when poolside DJs, live bands, dancefloors and the onsite nightclub swings into action. The resort brings in authentic Sega dancers from all over Mauritius and showcases talented local music troupes and performers of every variety, so there is always a spectacle to marvel at. Two special nights include the Island Night, when guests enjoy a pop-up authentic dinner on the beach whilst passionate dancers move to the hypnotic beat of the Sega dance.

An interesting feature of Tamassa is that it plays host to elite athletes and sports enthusiasts from all over the world, who take part in the LUX* Sports events throughout the year. With state-of-the-art fitness facilities, children’s club and the LUX* Me Spa specialising in pampering and restoration, Tamassa is an unforgettable family holiday destination in Mauritius.
