Family Holiday in Mauritius

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

Mauritius is an ideal family holiday destination and is great for kids of any age. Mauritius Island offers great value for money on family holidays, with the choice of all-inclusive resorts and self-catering apartments and houses.

Many resorts and hotels are child-friendly, offering children’s swimming pools and play areas, kids’ clubs, programs packed with fun activities, and services such as babysitting.

Whatever part of the island you’re in, you’re never far from a family-friendly activity.

There’s snorkelling, diving, water skiing, paddle boating, kayaking, kite surfing, animal parks where kids can feed giant tortoises, and amazing natural attractions such as Black River Gorges National Park and Tamarind Falls, where you can hike in beautiful forests, go abseiling and canyoning and swim in rivers.

While there are child-friendly resorts in Mauritius on each side of the island, the island’s western coast is particularly popular for family holidays in Mauritius because of the sheltered, calm ocean.

Look out for special deals at resorts for families, where they offer discounted rates for kids under 12.
