La Pirogue

La Pirogue is situated along sunset west coast and bordered by scintillating turquoise waters offering guests a great four-star experience in paradise. Imbued with authentic and unrivalled Mauritian charm, La Pirogue resembles a traditional fishing village, each bungalow’s thatched roof reminiscent of the unfurled sail of a local fishing boat, from which the resort derives its name. Set amongst a coconut grove and surrounded by lush gardens, this boho-chic hotel boasts a relaxed atmosphere that is still vibrant, perfect for both families and couples alike. Located on the west coast of Mauritius 35 km from the capital city of Port Louis, La Pirogue offers numerous excursion possibilities, notably in the beautifully natural south of the island.

The magnificent beach stretches along the crystal-clear sea protected by the barrier reef further out. All along the beach, a vast, luxuriant palm-grove basks in the sweet fragrances of frangipani. With its superb new infinity pool, remodelled restaurants and redecorated guest rooms, the renovated resort has even greater appeal.

The rooms at La Pirogue are tucked away in individual grounded thatched bungalows that open privately onto the palm grove and the turquoise lagoon. These rooms offer a convivial, cosy and authentically Mauritian atmosphere. There are 7 different room options called pavilions and bungalows and guests can choose between a garden or beach setting, including family options. La Pirogue is a disabled-friendly hotel with some rooms fitted with specific facilities to ensure the ultimate comfort and ease of access. These rooms have ramps and wheelchair-friendly bathrooms

Great service, sensational signature dishes and a uniquely Mauritian spirit are all part of the La Pirogue experience. The hotel boasts three restaurants and three bars, nestled amongst coconut trees and surrounded by manicured gardens, not to mention exceptional views of the famous Le Morne Brabant and particularly good sunsets. The hotel also offers excellent Sun Kids and Sun Teens Clubs, a good dive centre, great wining and dining options, easy access to a golfing paradise and a beautiful spa all situated along one of the best beaches on the island.

Whether you are an amateur or a professional, you can enjoy spectacular rounds of golf on some of the island’s most magnificent courses. With privileged access on the world-renowned championship course Ile aux Cerfs Golf Club, designed by golfing icon Bernhard Langer, and special rates at both Anahita and Tamarina, playing golf in paradise is made easy.

A day spent on Ile aux Cerfs is a day well lived. This gorgeous tropical island is a haven for golfers but equally extraordinary for non-players. The Ile aux Cerfs Leisure Island offers additional activities, with a host of water sports, three diverse dining options and excellent spots for snorkelling and sunbathing. A mere speed boat ride from the east coast, it is an absolute must!

Spend your time relishing the temperate waters and indulge in the hotel’s good water sport and diving activities. Discover the wonders of the underwater world in a unique way from a kayak, or closely encounter the vivid marine life while snorkelling or on a diving excursion organised by the PADI dive centre. Thrill seekers can let the wind be their guide while sailing or windsurfing. There are also stand up paddle boarding and kayaking on offer, alternatively enjoy the adrenaline rush of a tube ride or white-water skiing.

La Pirogue is situated near the fishing village of Flic en Flac, named after the local fishing boat and fashioned after a billowing pirogue sail and is undoubtedly a great destination to live out your fishing dreams. The fishing activities at La Pirogue will provide you with the opportunity to get out into the really deep waters in pursuit of the ultimate catch, so possible in Mauritius. They also offer mini-fishing excursions for children.

The wellbeing activities at La Pirogue were specifically created to ensure that guests can exercise both body and mind in order to enjoy a truly carefree holiday in paradise. Partake in a Tae Bo class to ensure you stay coordinated and active while allowing stress to leave your body on a physical level, or enjoy a session of yoga, nurturing both body and mind, with stretches, poses, gratitude and meditation.
