The hotel

After a makeover in October 2023, the hotel re-opened as a spirited and luxury hotel, occupying a dream location overlooking a pristine stretch of beach washed by sparkling azure waters. It’s also home to one of the island’s largest swimming pools, take a dip or treat yourself to a fresh, low-fat ice cream packed with island fruits from the 'ici' vendors. You'll also find some quirky LUX* touches, such as their own blend of coffee roasted on site, a pop-up restaurant and Cinema Paradiso. LUX* Belle Mare offers a range of suites and private villas to tempt you, all beautifully designed. Upgrade to a Pool View Junior Suite overlooking the swimming pool or to a Wellness Junior Suite for wellness perks and spa discounts. Looking for a couples escape? The cocoon-like Ocean Suites are nice and private, or if you’re travelling with the children the Beach View Junior Suites are very spacious. It’s the little touches here that make all the difference, a British red phone box, for example, a novel way to call home! Exciting amenities include an impressive list of water sports with probably something new to try every day of your holiday. As for restaurants, you’ve several to choose from. MONDO specialises in worldwide cuisine, whilst at Amari by Vineet, you can enjoy Indian delights fit for a maharajah.

We visited here this May for our Honeymoon. Can’t really fault the hotel at all and certainly can’t fault the staff. There were review’s prior to our visit that there’s loads of kids and the adults only section of beach was non existent . This simply wasn’t true. The beach was stunning! Yes there was kids on the beach and around sun-beds but not in the adults only section. The kids provided great entrainment and were impeccably behaved so credit to all their parents. Shout outs: Niktin (mixologist bar & our favourite), Pravesh (beach area waiter) , Vickram (mixologist bar) Doleres (Mondo) Jennifer (celebration manager), Bilall (maison lux) Yash (mixologist bar) All of the above were super friendly and standout to our trip they simply couldn’t do enough for you. We only have two ever so slightly negatives and they really are minor. 1- The entertainment on an evening was relatively poor. Not the acts they were great but there was too many nights with nothing on at all and the venue became a bit sole-less because of it. 2- Would’ve been nice for a “snack bar” on a lunchtime. We didn’t always want to order off a menu or an A La Carte meal as nice as they were. Would’ve just been nice to have some picky bits or snacks by say where the ice cream parlour is. Over all experience 10/10 Read less
