A luxurious haven: Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita

The Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita is close to paradise

The Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita is tucked away in the eastern corner of the island. Port Louis, the capital, is just over an hour away by car and the drive from the airport to the resort – along tight, winding roads – was a wonderful introduction to the country’s landscape and local life. On my right was an endless view of vibrant sugar cane fields – a testament to the island’s rich history in sugar production – against the dramatic backdrop of the mountains. On my left was the tranquil and turquoise Indian Ocean. Eventually, a black gate appeared. As it opened, the driver announced, “this is the gateway to paradise”. He wasn’t wrong.
