Whether you’re looking for a lively spot with plenty of water sports or a quiet cove for relaxation, Grand Baie offers a variety of beach experiences. From the serene waters of La Cuvette to the vibrant atmosphere of Pereybere, each beach has its unique charm and allure. Discover these must-visit beaches that will make your stay in Grand Baie unforgettable.

Grand Baie Public Beach

As you explore Grand Baie, you’ll come across its most iconic attraction—Grand Baie Beach. With its soft white sands and dazzling turquoise waters, this beach epitomizes Mauritian paradise. Grand Baie Beach has it all, whether you’re keen on swimming, sunbathing, or trying out thrilling water sports like windsurfing and parasailing. To make the most of your visit, consider coming on weekdays when the beach is quieter, allowing you to enjoy its beauty without the weekend crowds.

La Cuvette public beach

La Cuvette Beach

Strolling through Grand Baie is an adventure, full of surprises at every turn. Just a short walk from the hotel, you’ll find a hidden gem—a small, sandy cove with a crystal-clear blue lagoon that’s sure to become your daytime paradise. Don’t forget to bring along your snorkel gear; the underwater world here is teeming with vibrant, colourful fish, offering a mesmerising experience. This little slice of heaven is one you’ll want to return to, time and time again.

Pereybere Beach

A little further down the coast, just a short drive from Grand Baie, lies Pereybere Beach—a tranquil haven that offers a more peaceful retreat. Known for its calm, crystal-clear waters, Pereybere is the perfect spot for snorkelling. Here, you can dive into an underwater world brimming with vibrant marine life. This beach, less frequented than Grand Baie Beach, is a local favourite and an ideal place to relax and soak up the serene atmosphere.

Bain Boeuf Beach

Just a short distance from Grand Baie, Bain Boeuf Beach offers a tranquil escape with stunning views of Coin de Mire Island on the horizon. This beach is perfect for those who prefer a quieter spot away from the busier beaches. The soft sand and clear, shallow waters make it ideal for a peaceful swim or a leisurely stroll along the shore. Bain Boeuf is also a great place to relax under the shade of the casuarina trees, enjoying the natural beauty of Mauritius. It’s a hidden gem that invites you to unwind and soak in the serene atmosphere.

Whether you’re sampling spicy street food or indulging in a leisurely dinner with live music, each bite tells a story of the island’s heritage and the vibrant spirit of its people. Let’s explore the culinary delights that await you in Grand Baie.

Local Eateries and the Mauritian Flavours

The effervescence of the bazaar *

Bazar de Grand Baie

This Tamil temple is a visual delight, adorned with bright colours and detailed carvings that depict various deities. As you approach, you’ll hear the gentle tolling of the temple bell, rung by devotees as they enter to offer prayers.

The temple is open to visitors who wish to explore its serene interior and honour the gods within. Entry is free, but it’s important to show respect by removing your shoes and headgear before entering. This visit allows you to connect with the deep-rooted traditions that continue to thrive in Grand Baie. You may either admire the temple’s architecture or observe a prayer ceremony at the Tamil Surya Oudaya Sangam Temple, both are not to missed experiences during your stay in Mauritius

Whether you’re looking for refreshing adventures, chilled-out experiences, or hidden gems away from the heat, we’ve got you covered. Here are five of the best ways to beat the heat and enjoy every moment of your island getaway!


1. ENJOY NATURAL AIR CONDITIONING

Air Conditioning on Your Holidays in Veranda Resorts

Luckily, Mauritius is blessed with stunning coastal spots where you can unwind in the shade of palm trees, feel the gentle ocean breeze on your skin, and take a refreshing swim in turquoise waters. If you’re staying at Veranda Grand Baie, you’re in the perfect spot to cool off in style. With its lush tropical gardens, serene beachfront, and a stunning infinity pool overlooking the lagoon, relaxation comes naturally.

For an even more peaceful escape, you can set off to one of the nearby islets, such as Îlot Gabriel, Coin de Mire, or Île Plate. Picture yourself spending the day on a quiet stretch of sand, surrounded by the soothing sounds of the waves, with nothing but the endless blue horizon in sight. Whether you’re basking in the shade of a parasol or simply enjoying the slow rhythm of island life, these little slices of paradise offer the ultimate way to cool off during your holidays in Mauritius.


2. WATER ACTIVITIES

Exciting Water Activities to cool off during your holiday at Veranda Resorts

During your holidays in Mauritius, there’s no better way to cool off than by diving into some thrilling water activities on the island’s stunning west coast. At Veranda Tamarin, you’ll have access to a variety of options to explore the beauty of the region. Start your day with a kayaking trip in search of playful dolphins or take a more relaxed approach by paddleboarding along the Tamarin River, surrounded by the island’s lush landscape.

For those seeking a little more adventure, set out on a catamaran cruise to sail across the crystalline lagoon, or try your luck at big game fishing with local experts, casting your line into the deep blue ocean. For a unique perspective, take a seaplane flight and enjoy panoramic views of the sparkling waters and the iconic Le Morne Mountain, a UNESCO World Heritage site. And if you love the thrill of riding the waves, surf lessons in Tamarin Bay, known for its fantastic surf spot, are a must!)


3. REFRESHING LOCAL DELIGHTS

Refreshing Local Delights at Veranda Resorts

As the temperatures rise during your holidays in Mauritius, opt for cold dishes at mealtimes and stay hydrated with refreshing drinks. Our favourite combo? A freshly squeezed tropical fruit juice alongside an ourite* salad. This Rodriguan specialty, full of zingy lemon and coriander flavours, is an absolute must. In fact, it’s one of the dishes that our chefs will teach you to make during cooking classes at your hotel, offering an unforgettable experience!

To complement your meal, nothing beats sipping on chilled beverages like fresh coconut water or a locally made fruit punch, which perfectly balances out the heat. And for the ultimate cool-down treat, cap off your meal with the local version of sorbet: delicious and brightly coloured shaved ice. Whether you choose exotic flavours like guava, lychee, or passion fruit, it’s the perfect sweet ending to any meal, giving you that refreshing pick-me-up to enjoy the rest of your holidays in Mauritius.

4. EXPLORE THE LAGOON AND ISLETS

Explore the lagoon and islets at Veranda Resorts

The lapping of the water against the hull, the salty breeze, the rocking waves, the deep blue of the depths… We all dream of spending hot summer afternoons on a boat. Your Veranda Resorts hotel invites you to spend the day exploring the lagoon and islets aboard a catamaran. Lunch and drinks are provided – just bring your swimsuit and sunscreen! Alternatively, take a two-hour ride on a traditional pirogue with a local fisherman. Soak up the magnificent views of the north-eastern coast and sail at a Mauritian pace while sipping a glass of champagne.

Whether you’re cruising along the coast or venturing out to remote islets, a day at sea offers both relaxation and adventure. The gentle sway of the boat and the endless horizon create the perfect setting to cool off, unwind, and enjoy the true beauty of the island, making it one of the best ways to experience the magic of Mauritius during your holiday.

Veranda Grand Baie's culinary concept unveiled by Darren
Hotel Mauritius

Veranda Grand Baie’s culinary concept unveiled by Darren

posted by Elodie Ova 26th July 2023 0 comments

So, who is Darren? you may ask. Originally from France, this lively young man in his thirties moved to Mauritius years ago to study hotel management.

His passion for food and mixology makes him the perfect candidate to take on the position of Operations Manager – F&B for our new Creole Chic address!

Let’s discover without further delay what Darren and his team are concocting for you, our dear soon-to-be guests:

Can you tell us more about the culinary experience our guests will live at Veranda Grand Baie?

The culinary experience will be both simple and chic, in line with the Creole-Chic atmosphere that will reign at Veranda Grand Baie. Through our two restaurants, two bars and our dedicated Feel Mauritius. Feel Mauritian kiosk, which is the cornerstone of this renovation, the aim will be to highlight our local know-how and our tropical lifestyle… the Mauritian way. Emphasis will also be put on the quality and local origin of the products.

How will the Creole-Chic atmosphere be reflected in the restaurants and service?

The two restaurants & bars will be quite distinct from each other. Thus, we will be able to offer our guests a variety of dishes and beverages in line with the Creole-Chic atmosphere of the hotel, in different places with unique ambiances, each of them enhancing the Mauritian culture by highlighting local products and bringing a touch of refinement.

Let me give you an example. Let’s take La Varangue, our bar associated with the main restaurant! In the island life, the varangue is a privileged place of life in a Creole house. Always located in front of a luxuriant garden, it is always the corner of the house where one relaxes under the sun. From the chesterfield armchair to the creole armchair, La Varangue will reflect through its decor, the history of the island.

And what about the food options?

Mauritian cuisine has a 300-year history, with a multitude of influences brought by different cultures. Deer and sugar cane were brought by the Dutch. The French left their cooking methods, in “daube” and “civet”. Pierre Poivre brought many spices like cinnamon. The English and their Indian workers brought the famous curry, and finally, the Chinese introduced the wok! All these influences gave birth to a rich, varied and above all exceptional cuisine.
At Veranda Grand Baie, we wish to honor this multicultural heritage. From breakfast to dinner, through afternoon tea and daytime snacks, each meal will be an opportunity for the guest to soak up the soul of Mauritius.

Can you give us a taste of this Mauritian menu?

Our beach restaurant “Lazy Lobster”, overlooking Grand Baie, will be a sensory awakening! Here, our Chefs will showcase their know-how by revisiting Mauritian classics such as the famous lobster bisque or the Mauritian style “VIELLE GRISE” fish salad. This casual yet refined restaurant will be the ideal place to enjoy an unpretentious and simple cuisine, where local ingredients will be honored & tasted with appetite, for sure!

Finally, what emotions and feelings will guests be experiencing at Veranda Grand Baie?
The welcoming at Veranda Grand Baie will be warm and sincere, in a relaxed and family atmosphere recreating the atmosphere of a Mauritian plantation house and our culinary experiences will be carefully designed to awaken the five senses of our guests, so that they live a unique holistic experience, facing the bay of Grand Baie!

A relaxing atmosphere in a refined setting

A tropical oasis at the heart of Grand Baie

Inspired by typical creole guesthouses, this hotel and its private beach provide guests with a peaceful haven!
