The Telfair This Golf & Spa Resort extends over acres of the former sugar estate of Bel Ombre situated in Mauritius. It is surrounded by the impressive foothills of the Plaine Champagne mountain, and overlooking the Indian Ocean. The charm of Le Telfair is its very charismatic style, inspired by the grand French colonial architecture of the grand sugar estate mansion. Rooms have superb views through wonderful floor to ceiling windows and French doors, and a certain nostalgic elegance that sets it apart from alternative, often more contemporary style accommodation choices.
A relatively large hotel, with 158 rooms and five restaurants, but with just 6 to 8 spacious rooms per villa, the overall atmosphere is tranquil and private. Guests make use of choice of five restaurants, with unusual emphasis on guest/ chef interaction; all guests are encouraged to watch food being prepared and even make personal recipe suggestions! There is also an open invitation to join the 'Chef's Table' for further enjoyment of the art of eating and wine-tasting.
The Telfair - Summary
Le Telfair is smart, sophisticated and also great for kids over two years, as well as a fabulous choice for golf and spa enthusiasts; golfing on the par 72 course adjoining the resort is good all year round, although hotter from December to April, cooler from May to November. It is a 205 acre Championship Course with wide undulating fairways cutting through the sugar cane fields, against a backdrop of volcanic mountains and breathtaking views of the ocean. Golfing lessons are offered to beginners. The Six Senses Spa is surrounded by fabulously well-tended tropical gardens, with ponds & water features to provide appropriately atmospheric zen-like calm. The wide range of treatments offered blend both ancient and modern techniques, ensuring a truly revitalising experience. Activities include a huge range of watersports, including diving, sailing and even kite surfing with lessons available for all. Glass-bottom boat trips and snorkelling make the most of the glorious reef, and kayaks, lasers, catermarans, windsurfs are all available for your enjoyment. Deep sea fishing is also a popular option from here. Guests may explore the stunning natural surroundings on 4x4 driving trips or opt for two seater quads and mountain biking excursions. and if all of this is not enough for exercise of mind and body then enjoy use of the fully equipped gym, or opt for lapping the large central pool or enjoying the more sedentary pursuits of petanque and billiards! The Kids Club, the oddly named ‘Ti’ Marmite’, is well recommended for children over 2 years as a properly organized and attractive focus for children; a good range of daily activities and excursions are planned to maintain enthusiasm to return, making it much easier for adults to relax and pursue their own interests! Le Telfair also provides wealth of choice for watersports, a fully-equipped gym and potential to explore the massive nature park that surround the extensive grounds.
