Private Villas Add to the Accommodations on Mauritius

When it comes to luxury holiday destinations Mauritius is at the top the list regardless of where you're coming from. The island boasts plenty to offer including some of the world’s finest resort properties. But now there are enterprising hoteliers adding to the accommodations with a new option: private island villas. Many of these villas were one-time residences of the wealthy which have been purchased by resort companies and are now rented out.

It's not uncommon to find these private villas apportioned with as much a luxury as the standard ocean-side luxury resort. Furthermore, many of these villas are on private islands or in remote areas along the coast as yet untouched by larger properties. They are the perfect option for couples looking for private Mauritius honeymoon packages. What could be more romantic than your own private island villa complete with maid service, butler service, and your own chef?

It is these types of options that continue to bring people to Mauritius from all over the world. Europe continues to supply most of the area's visitors, at about 70% annually. But travellers from China, North America, and the Middle East are beginning to come with more frequency as well. All of this adds up to a vibrant tourist industry that has grown by about 5% so far in 2011.

Regardless of whether you come to Mauritius for your honeymoon or just an annual holiday you will be swept away by the incredible tropical environment. One of the first things many new visitors notice is how crystal clear the water is. That's because natural coral reefs protect the coastal waters from the churning Indian Ocean. This provides an environment in which the turquoise blue waters come alive with natural animal and plant life as well as colours that will blow your mind.

Water is the centre point for most Mauritius holidays, with plenty of water sports available. You can try your hand at water skiing, windsurfing, snorkelling, or even PADI diving. Many resorts have access to glass-bottomed boats as well as local companies offering island hopping tours and deep sea fishing. If you love time on the water, you will absolutely love your Mauritius holidays. And even if water is not your thing there's still plenty for you to enjoy.

For the golfer Mauritius offers several championship level courses surrounded by beautiful mountain and ocean views. Nature lovers will enjoy long walks through lush gardens, hiking along nature trails, or bike riding from town to town. And for those who are into history and culture, Mauritius has more than enough to satisfy. Between the historic sugar plantations, colonial architecture, and cultural sites, you'll learn all about Mauritius and its native people.

When it's time to plan your next holiday trip you should seriously consider a visit to Mauritius. It is a place where memories are made; a place where you'll enjoy the closest thing to paradise on earth. So take advantage of last minute deals right now, or start making your plans for 2011.
