Maritim Resort & Spa Mauritius

A 25-hectare estate on Turtle Bay, built around the ruins of an 18th-century powder mill, with seven restaurants, a 9-hole golf course and its own equestrian centre.

A national monument on Turtle Bay

Maritim Resort & Spa Mauritius sits on 25 hectares at Balaclava, on the sheltered north-west coast. The grounds are built around the Ruins of Balaclava, an 18th-century French powder mill and national monument, and run down to the calm water of Turtle Bay.

The resort keeps its own working farm alongside the beach: an equestrian centre with horses and ponies, giant tortoises, and a 9-hole golf course threaded through the gardens. Seven restaurants and five bars, several set inside the old stone buildings, cover everything from a colonial-style buffet to a fine-dining room in a restored mansion.
