A short stroll from the bustle of Grand Baie seaside village, the coconut-pal-shaded resort of LUX* Grand Baie fuses tranquility and nightlife lovers in equal measure. Spend days lounging poolside of basking in the sun-warmed lagoon or try your skills against the ocean by water skiing, windsurfing or kayaking the coast. On dry land, perfect your backhand on the tennis courts (or ping-pong tables); play volleyball and petanque on the beach and give yourself over to a body-beautifying LUX* Fitness program tailored for you.

As far as dining goes, you’re in charge. Saunter straight into the kitchens and take your pick from the pans of Mixe2.0 or take a seat at the tapas bar for classic Spanish bites and more than 40 wines from the barrel. Cross the road to Barbacoa 1526, where wood-fired meats from nine national cuisines – Korean to Iranian via the American South – are sourced from the on-site butcher’s shop and smokery and served straight from the grill.
