Picture a place along the wild and unspoilt east coast of Mauritius. On one side, sprawling fields; on the other, a turquoise lagoon. A simple place to disconnect and reconnect. This hotel exists… and it’s called Sunrise Attitude.

This adults-only hotel is located opposite the white-sand beach of Belle Mare, which is reached by crossing the street. This is one of the best beaches in Mauritius and the hotel has a great position along this preserved coastline.

Sunrise Attitude is eco-committed. Rooms are decorated with locally-made crafts, and guests won’t find a stocked minibar. Instead, they can visit the hotel’s Bulk Shop and stock up on tea, coffee and snacks in reusable glass jars.

There are two outdoor pools furnished with sunloungers, umbrellas and swings. There is a swim-up bar, games room, a street food truck, plus a choice of bars and restaurants offering healthy and delicious cuisine with a wide vegan selection. A buffet breakfast is served daily at The Market, and a dine-around experience allows guests to choose between three restaurants on a half-board basis. Wherever possible, all supplies are locally-sourced to ensure the freshest produce on each plate.

Sunrise Attitude has 145 air-conditioned rooms and 8 villas with a private plunge pool. The hotel also features swim-up rooms, allowing guests to go from bedroom to pool in no time. Rooms and villas do not have a TV, as the hotel encourages you to switch off and reconnect.

Guests can book a treatment at Spa POZ. The herbs and ingredients used in the spa products are 100% natural and grown locally. There are also a variety of activities dedicated to wellbeing, including creative workshops..

Experiences include having dinner with a local family, and the chance to enjoy self-guided walking or cycling tours via the hotel’s free mobile app. Guests can also explore the ocean on the glass-bottomed boat or with snorkelling equipment.

Belle Mare Plage Golf Club is only a 5-minute drive away, and the towns of Trou d’Eau Douce and Flacq are 10 km away. There are parking spaces available at Sunrise Attitude, but a parking space cannot be booked in advance.

Please note that Sunrise Attitude works with animal welfare charities to care for stray dogs and cats, which guests may see occasionally on the hotel premises.
