Our house, your home away
Nature lovers, friendly and outspoken couple, travellers : these words would summarize our characters.
​
Instead of going around the world, we welcome the world to our home.
And you know what ? It is such an exciting experience !
​
Meeting new people, learning about other cultures, living styles, sharing special moments with new souls spending a couple of days with us and feel like talking to long time friends is what we enjoy the most.
Live Mauritius from the inside, connect with locals, taste a blend flavors from different cultures and come back to simple things.
Reconnect with people, with nature, with simple things.
Keep in mind that we are a family owned and ran guest house.
As such our focus is the human experience we want to share.
So take it easy and enjoy the moment,

Exploring around
Beach side
A 1 km walk will lead to Le Bouchon, pittoresque fishermen village located along the sea.
Another 3kms further, enjoy the beautiful beach of La Cambuse for a nice swim or snorqueling.
The Natural Bridge
Shaped by the sea into the cliff, the Natural Bridge is located 2 kms from Gite des Acacias. Relaxing and breathtaking view over the ocean.
Exploring Mahebourg
Mahebourg hosts a local market every Monday where one can enjoy the Mauritian living style and buy souvenirs, taste delicious street foods and visit historical monuments and unique places like the traditional biscuit factory.
Extend the local experience by taking a bus ride from the guest house to Mahebourg.
The wild south
Wild. This word says it all.
Unspoiled lagoons and beaches for fun snorkeling or swims.
No amenities around.
Getting to these spots mean you will either need a car, a scooter or be ready to walk a bit into the sugar cane fields.
These authentic places are worth the ride to our opinion.
Ile aux Aigrettes
Managed by the Mauritius Wildlife Foundation, Ile aux Aigrettes organizes guided tours to discover the endangered species of Mauritius and explain their work to protect them.
Boat trips
We organize boat trips upon request. Either to Ile aux Cerfs with a catamaran or the Old Light House island in a traditional boat, enjoy a full day tour in the largest lagoon of Mauritius.
