LOCATION :
Modelled on a fishing village, La Pirogue hotel, on the west coast
of the island, is contiguous to its sister hotel, Sugar Beach Resort,
which also belongs to the Managed by One&Only Resorts group.
It is located along one of the country's finest beaches, of immaculate
white sand, over one kilometre long. In addition, it nestles in
a magnificent tropical garden, a remarkable palm-grove of 8 hectares
pleasantly punctuated with colourful hibiscus and fragrant frangipani.
Everything here is reminiscent of the traditional Mauritian fishing
boat from which the hotel takes its name - from the main building
inspired by a white sail floating in the wind, to the chalets built
in local volcanic rock and crowned with wood and thatch. Merging
into the Indian Ocean, the new 'infinity' pool of 1,000 square metres
is an invitation to relaxation and happiness.
The
hotel is ideally situated in the proximity of the island's main
commercial centres of Port Louis (25 mins), Quatre Bornes (20 mins)
and Curepipe (45 mins). By virtue of its west-coast location, La
Pirogue presents numerous excursion opportunities, notably to Casela
Bird Park, the private hunting-ground of Yemen, Chamarel and its
'seven-coloured earth', and the natural south. Another destination
of interest is Black River with its celebrated big-game fishing
clubs.
ACCOMMODATION
:
Recently renovated, all guestrooms are at ground-level and open
privately on the magnificent palm-grove and the Indian Ocean. Each
