C Mauritius

C Mauritius is a resort facing Palmar Beach, on the eastern shore of Mauritius, where the wind off the Indian Ocean runs steady enough to draw kitesurfers most of the year. The tide is the one thing that keeps a schedule here. Rooms are locally furnished and open onto a terrace or balcony, air-conditioned and fitted with Wi-Fi, TV and minibar. The resort operates all-inclusive, with a buffet dining room, an Asian outlet called Wok 'n' Roll, a bakery counter for doughnuts and pastries, a bar, and a wine cellar stocked with biodynamic labels. Beyond the pool, guests can take a kayak or pedalo out, join a game of padel, or simply watch kites lift off the sand. Each year the beach turns over to the C Kite Festival, drawing world-ranked riders and a live music line-up for a long weekend in June. The property holds Green Globe recertification, covering energy and water use, waste handling and local sourcing. It is a straightforward, unfussy stay, built more for barefoot afternoons than formal ones. Shops and restaurants in Palmar and Quatre Cocos sit a short drive away, useful if the resort's own kitchens run their course. You can hear the wind pick up most afternoons, which is precisely the point.
