Le Cardinal Exclusive Resort

Thirteen suites on the beach at Trou aux Biches, run as a single small house rather than a resort.

One address, thirteen suites

Le Cardinal Exclusive Resort sits directly on the beach at Trou aux Biches, on Mauritius' north-west coast, a short drive from Grand-Baie. There is no scale to it: thirteen suites in total, arranged over a few floors around a small pool and a strip of white sand.

That size is the point. One restaurant, one spa, and a team who know every guest by name. Clients who want a boutique alternative to the island's larger resorts, without giving up a beachfront address, tend to ask for this one by name.
