Once the home of a wealthy sugar baron, the St Regis Le Morne retains much of its colonial architecture and old-world heritage. Occupying a prime location, the property sits on Le Morne Peninsula in the southwest of the island, backed by the Le Morne Mountain and facing the shimmering blue waters of the Indian Ocean. The all-suite all-butler accommodation is stretched across sheltered golden sands, while amenities include an excellent choice of dining venues, handsome spa and extensive range of water sports.
Each of the 172 suites, along with the 4-bedroom private beachfront villa has been designed as a private sanctuary, with butler service to ensure a personalized service reflecting the hotel’s luxurious vibe and Live Exquisite ethos. All feature a private balcony or terrace, neutral palette, soothing minimalist aesthetic and spacious marble bathrooms.
There is a choice of dining venues to suit all moods and appetites, with cuisine ranging from island-inspired dishes to highly accomplished Asian, Japanese, Indian and French classics. More casual Mediterranean fare is served at The Boathouse overlooking the beach, while La Patisserie provides coffee and pastries in a chic café environment. The Boathouse includes an all-day Beach Lounge, for unwinding with a drink or for a more sophisticated vibe, the St Regis Bar serves cocktails and classic drinks in glamorous surroundings.
Treatments and massages are available at the impressive Pure Spa or in-room, while the state-of-the-art fitness center includes Technogym equipment, sauna and steam room. Families are well catered for and the team of childcare experts at Kite Flyers Club have a raft of activities to amuse 4–12-year-olds.
