And ideal place for a relaxing holiday as a couple, a family or a group of friends…Built along a very wide beach of fine white sand and a lagoon with hues of blues and greens, the hotel is appreciated for its genuineness, the attentive care and the kindness of its staff. The 51 rooms, smartened up and redecorated in 2012, are nested in warm ochre bungalows in total harmony with the trees and flowers of the garden around. 16 rooms have been designed for families and have a separate room attached. With an All Inclusive package, you can unrestrainedly make the most of the hotel and all it has to offer. Nautical activities lovers are spoilt. The turquoise lagoon is in itself an invitation to a swim, an invitation to discover the seabed and its marine life or to kitesurf. Bougainville is also a privileged spot to embark to Ile aux Cerfs.

An introduction to Trou D’eau Douce

The pretty fishing town of Trou d’Eau Douce, Sweet Water Hole in English, is the first major settlement you reach up the east coast of Mauritius. True to its name, it’s a lovely place, exuding old-world charm with every step it takes along this stretch of coast. Almost everything – twee cottages, private villas, hotels, and restaurants – is marshalled along the shore-hugging Royal Road. Ocean views come pretty much guaranteed.The area is popular for its sheltered bay, which plays host to an armada of fishing vessels and speedboats, as well as watersports. The town beach is small, but big on appeal. Plus, it makes a good starting point for exploring the Quatre Cocos district directly north. Most of the beaches in this neighbourhood are set close to the coral reef with shallow, snorkeller-friendly waters. You’ll spot the occasional snack wagon trundling across the sands, but other than that things stay pretty untouched. For all its button-cute looks, Trou d’Eau Douce’s main claim to fame is as the jumping-off point for Île aux Cerfs, a 15-minute catamaran ride away. It’s fully deserving of its ‘mini Eden’ tag, with exquisite, casuarina-shaded beaches, and a shimmering lagoon weighted with marine life. The island is also home to the championship Île aux Cerfs Golf Course, which has views of the ocean from all 18 holes. The town makes a great base for exploring the east coast’s sights. In Trou d’Eau Douce itself, Victoria 1840 is an old sugar cane mill that’s worth a look. It’s been tastefully converted in to a contemporary art museum, and houses works by Yvette Maniglier, the last private pupil of Henri Matisse. Meanwhile, the island’s largest river, Grande Rivière Sud-Est, is a 10-minute drive away. Its tumbling waterfall and tropical vegetation make a great setting for swimming and picnics.

Located in an area oozing natural splendour, the resort boasts fabulous facilities and a world-class golf course that can be found at the venue.

In 2011, the Wild Coast Sun underwent a major refurbishment to improve the casino, restaurants and bars and introduce a new water park, Wild Waves. This fine example of Wild Coast accommodation caters to a wide variety of different people, from tourists, to local day visitors, conference delegates and those just passing through.

The location and facilities set the scene for a truly rejuvenating school holiday break. With December holidays just around the corner (and limited availability), this is an offer not to be missed.
