A new experience awaits guests at this beautiful beach hotel in Mauritius,
located in Bel Ombre, on the island’s south-west coast.
Tamassa, a 4-star beach hotel, stands at the end of a long avenue of mature
coconut palms towering skywards.
A picture postcard landscape stretches across sugarcane fields to the mountains
beyond. The south-west is a beautiful part of Mauritius, with spectacular walks
and drives through lush, tropical hillsides and a range of open-air activities
in beautiful countryside.
In front of the beach hotel, beyond the sandy beach, lies a turquoise lagoon
that almost blends into the skyline. The sea air is invigorating and the ripples
of the waves gently calming. Beyond, lie thousands of miles of open sea.
The traditional style architecture ideally suits the tropical setting, with
beautifully landscaped gardens. The buildings seem at one with the environment.
The décor is breathtakingly contemporary, with clean lines and bold use of
colour. The atmosphere is one of eternal youth, friendly, cheerful and
enthusiastic. Tamassa is a new Mauritian experience!
Accommodation
Standard Rooms (43m²)
The decor is strikingly attractive, with pure, simple lines contrasting with
bright green touches on the bedspreads, and an inspired image of a bird of
paradise on the wall above the headboard. With the terrace door wide open, the
colours in the Room seem to blend with the trees and plants outside.
Each Standard Room has either a queen-size bed or twin beds. The bed cover,
specially designed for the hotel, gives an immediate feeling of intimacy.
A sliding, wooden door opens up to reveal a spacious bathroom, bathed in natural
light. As well as a corner bath, there is a separate shower cubicle edged in
sintered-glass tiling, 2 washbowls on stands and wardrobe space. The toilet is
behind a separate door.
The use of solid wood for all the doors and many of the fittings, gives a warm,
rich feel to both rooms.
Superior Rooms (46m²)
Warm, sunny colours envelop the room. The decor is attractively uncluttered,
with clean, contemporary lines offset here by touches of red orange.
An image of a huge, orchid stands above the wooden headboard and the touches of
orange in the curtains and the uniquely designed bedcover are intoxicating.
The bathroom has a bath, two glass washbasins, a separate shower edged with
decorated sintered-glass tiling, and a wardrobe. The toilet is behind a separate
door.
The overall effect is invigorating, the kind of room that makes guests want to
linger for a few weeks more.
Deluxe Rooms (49m²)
The orchid feature again predominates above the headboard of the queen-size
bed, but this time shades of fuchsia are featured throughout to dramatic effect.
Kiatt, a wood from North Africa, is used throughout all the rooms. The clean,
contemporary lines of the basic décor, offset here by the warmth of natural wood
and the touches of fuchsia colour, have a simply stunning impact.
The bathroom has a bright, luxurious feel to it, with two white porcelain hand
basins set on a taup golden marble stand and sintered-glass Bizassa tiling from
Italy in the shower. The spacious bath, set in its own alcove, has marble
surrounds.
Dining
Main Restaurant - Show (7 a.m to 10 p.m / 12 p.m to 3 p.m / 7 p.m to 10
p.m)
The restaurant’s terrace overlooks the swimming pool.
Modern elegance greets guests, with gobos casting beams of light on the pure,
contemporary lines of the interior, where shades of orange merge into rounded
lines and cubic shapes.
The main restaurant is divided into three and based on the exciting concept of
open kitchens, which adds a touch of theatre to the range of international
cuisine. For the first part of the day, Tamassa specialises in lavish buffet
breakfasts and lunches. Dinner is either à la carte or a sumptuous buffet.
