Following its transformation into The St. Regis Le Morne Resort, Mauritius in 2025, this all-suite resort gives travel advisors a fresh luxury proposition to offer clients travelling to Mauritius. It combines the St. Regis Butler Service, signature rituals, exceptional dining and, from this August, The St. Regis Spa by La Prairie – the first La Prairie spa destination in the Indian Ocean.
Formerly the JW Marriott Mauritius Resort, the property was reimagined as The St. Regis Le Morne Resort, Mauritius in 2025, with enhancements across the guest experience, dining concepts and accommodation. Having celebrated its first anniversary as The St. Regis in May 2026, the resort is now billed as "the best address in Mauritius", attracting honeymooners, couples, families and multi-generational travellers looking for a more personalised way to discover the island.
Inviting guests to live exquisitely
The resort’s location is one of its key selling points. Tucked beneath the Unesco World Heritage Site of Le Morne Brabant mountain, it sits on one of the Indian Ocean’s most iconic beaches. It offers 172 spacious suites and private villas, set among the tropical gardens and on the beach.
Designed as private retreats, the interiors reflect Mauritian craftsmanship through clean lines, natural textures, and distinctive details. Guests are surrounded by a calming, neutral colour palette, with spacious marble bathrooms featuring deep baths, double vanities, and rainfall showers. Many of the suites also boast private terraces or balconies.
For families and friends looking for a special stay, suggest the exclusive Grand Beachfront Villa, set on a secluded beach. It features four elegant suites, each with a private deck, and sleeps up to eight adults and eight children. Highlights include three plunge pools and a large infinity pool.
The St. Regis Butler Service
The St. Regis Butler Service is one of the resort's defining features, and Butlers take care of every detail, allowing guests to focus entirely on their stay. Butlers can arrange coffee or tea service on arrival, assist with unpacking, prepare an evening bath, organise a private dining experience and more.
Available 24 hours a day, this intuitive, anticipatory service has been a hallmark of the St. Regis brand for more than a century.
The new St. Regis Spa by La Prairie
One of the year's biggest developments is the opening of The St. Regis Spa by La Prairie, making the resort the first destination in the Indian Ocean to introduce the Swiss luxury skincare maison.
Opening this August, the 2,000-square-metre spa features 12 treatment rooms and a collection of personalised wellness experiences inspired by Swiss skincare expertise and the natural beauty of Mauritius.
In the spa, guests can discover the exclusive Mauritian Radiance Experience, created exclusively for The St. Regis Le Morne. Inspired by the island's volcanic origins, the signature ritual combines La Prairie's skincare expertise with locally inspired techniques, creating a treatment available nowhere else in the Indian Ocean.
St. Regis Signature Rituals
Signature Rituals are at the heart of every St. Regis stay, and at Le Morne they have a distinctly Mauritian character.
Each evening, guests gather for Sabrage at Sunset, honouring the champagne traditions of the House of Astor. Against the backdrop of Le Morne Brabant, champagne is ceremonially opened with a sabre before guests toast the sunset accompanied by local storytelling and traditional Sega performances.
Another highlight is Afternoon Tea by the Sea, where guests enjoy pastries inspired by local flavours. They're served alongside teas from Bois Chéri, Mauritius' oldest tea estate, either with their feet in the sand or from the resort's colonial veranda.
Every St. Regis hotel around the world also celebrates the Bloody Mary. At The St. Regis Le Morne, guests discover The L'Île Mary – the resort's own interpretation of the iconic cocktail – inspired by Mauritian spices and Creole flavours, and presented table-side from a cocktail trolley.
Other signature experiences include the Le Morne Leisurely Stroll, a guided walk to the first plateau of the neighbouring mountain; and the Exquisite Bathtime Experience, transforming an in-suite bath into a personalised ritual using locally sourced oils, salts and aromatherapy.
A culinary discovery
Dining is another reason guests return to The St. Regis Le Morne. Each restaurant has its own identity, celebrating flavours from Mauritius and around the world.
Guests can enjoy international cuisine at Le Manoir Dining Room, Pan-Asian flavours at Floating Market and Japanese dining and live Teppanyaki at Atsuko. INDYA celebrates contemporary Indian cuisine, and seafood by the ocean is served at The Boathouse Beach Grill. La Pâtisserie offers freshly baked pastries and artisanal coffee throughout the day.
For something more intimate, recommend The Chef's Table, a private dining experience tailored around guests' preferences.
Family traditions
Although known for its ultra-luxury positioning, The St. Regis Le Morne is equally suited to families travelling together.
Alongside its outdoor pools, tennis court, fitness centre and water sports, children aged four to twelve can enjoy The Kite Flyers Club and the Young Luminaries programme.
From making traditional gato coco sweets and harvesting tropical fruits to storytelling, birdwatching and island games, these "Family Traditions" encourage younger guests to discover Mauritius through hands-on experiences, while creating memories for the whole family.
For clients looking for more than a luxury resort, The St. Regis Le Morne offers a different way to experience Mauritius. Between its Butler Service, signature rituals, exceptional dining, the upcoming St. Regis Spa by La Prairie, and one of the island's most celebrated beachfront settings, travel advisors have plenty of reasons to recommend "the best address in Mauritius".
