Beachcomber Tours and the Fine Art of Luxury

24/08/2014Tom

I dare not begin to estimate the number of miles the Blue Bay Crew have travelled over the years, but it’d be a big number. Really, really big.

But when it comes choosing our business friends, we like to talk in much smaller numbers. We only like to associate ourselves with the gentlefolk of the travel trade, those passionate, whip-sharp institutions that like to break new ground in the sector.

One such friend is Beachcomber Tours. They’re masters of Mauritius, Marrakech, and the Seychelles, and their genre of choice is luxury. Not your vanilla luxury either, but real, gob-smacking, flabbergasting luxury that seduces you with its effortless magnificence.

I could keep slinging adjectives at your eyes in an attempt to articulate everything that Beachcomber Tours can offer you, or I could showcase some of their resorts to back up my banter with some solid facts. For that very reason, I have assembled below three of their most captivating properties, each equipped with dazzling offers to whet those whistles and pique that interest.

New and wonderful lands beckon, and here’s what is laid on the table:

Le Mauricia

Le Mauricia’s reputation is born from its excellent location in the heart of Grand Baie in Mauritius, and from the outside in everything is a feast for the senses. I could say the food is delicious, but that’d be an understatement. I could say the rooms are gorgeous, serene, and welcoming, but again I’d be selling them short. What I can say is that Le Mauricia needs to be experienced in the flesh, as every little detail reaches out and requests your personal presence. It’s all about comfort and simplicity, with a cosmopolitan flair that is eager to open the door to anyone. Trust me, it’ll be love at first sight.

Paradis Hotel & Golf Club

General consensus has it that Paradis Hotel & Golf Club is one of the best resorts on Mauritius. It’s easy to see how the masses have come to this conclusion, given the resort’s privileged location on the tip of the iconic Le Morne peninsula, surrounded by flourishing palms and spectacular rock formations. But more to the point, the resort itself is a centre of holidaying excellence, where culinary journeys, championship golf, and a Spa by Clarins work together to create a breed of luxury unique to Paradis Hotel & Golf Club.

There’s a time and place to experience luxury at its best. The time is now, and the place is Royal Palm Marrakech. Here you find spectacular luxury set in an equally spectacular location, with the Atlas Mountains accenting the local skyline. Every element of this resort is inspired by the vistas, with stunning cuisine, a comprehensive sports centre, and a Cabell B. Robinson golf course all drawing in the beauty of Marrakech and the world beyond. Here you get royal treatment as soon as you cross the threshold, and from your modern accommodation to the wealth of facilities at your disposal, you’ll live like kings and queens in this exclusive corner of Morocco.

Bonus Trivia

You’ll notice that a couple of these deals come with Emirates Airlines flights. This pleases us all, as Emirates rock like a hard thing. There’s flying, and then there’s Emirates Flying, where your holiday starts the moment you set foot on the plane. It’s like a hotel prelude, where you can get some luxury and refinement on the hoof. It’s one of the best ways to travel, especially when you’re being delivered to one of these spectacular Beachcomber destinations. It just makes your holiday that little bit more special that little bit sooner.
