Calming, restorative and deeply connected to nature, a blue-health escape with Constance Hotels & Resorts is an invitation to begin the new year with calm energy and undeniable presence.
As January arrives, many people look for gentler days, soothing landscapes and experiences that embrace a slower rhythm. Across the Indian Ocean, the island’s welcoming lagoons and shimmering coastlines create the perfect setting to start the year with balance and intention.
Blue-health travel celebrates the therapeutic qualities of oceans, lagoons and pools, drawing on water’s natural ability to restore both body and mind. Time spent soaking in ocean waters is known to ease muscle tension, support circulation and encourage deep relaxation, whilst the steady rhythm of waves helps quiet the mind.
From the sound of the sea to the sensation of floating in clear water, blue-health experiences invite stillness, reduce stress and inspire a deeper connection with the natural world.
Stillness and sanctuary at Constance Prince Maurice
On the peaceful northeast coast of Mauritius, Constance Prince Maurice rests beside peaceful waters, hidden among lush-green vegetation and secluded beaches. Here, we invite guests to begin the new year refreshed and renewed whilst washing away unwanted energy.
Days here revolve around the healing presence of water - glide through gentle waters in the early morning light, float beneath the soft warmth of the sun or wander along quiet beaches as the tide smooths the sand beneath your feet. You can even experience blue-health at our onsite Spa, where soothing rituals inspired by local botanicals ease the body, allowing you to truly reconnect.
Elegant suites and villas are situated overlooking the gentle waves of the Indian Ocean, allowing nature to infuse every moment with serene moments. As evening arrives, dining becomes an intimate experience. Le Barachois, the resort’s signature floating restaurant, sits above the lagoon and feels almost suspended between water and sky. The experience of crossing the lantern-lit walkway at dusk, with the lagoon beneath and the soft ripple of water all around, is unforgettable.
With suites on stilts that sit directly above the water and villas positioned beside the shoreline, Constance Prince Maurice is an idyllic retreat for starting the new year in harmony with the ocean.
The glistening soul of the ocean at Constance Belle Mare Plage
Along a sweeping stretch of coral-protected coastline, Constance Belle Mare Plage offers a livelier take on blue health. The ocean here is full of movement and colour, perfect for travellers who are looking for adventure and exciting exploration.
The ocean becomes your daily source of energy and inspiration. Snorkelling introduces you to vibrant marine life just beneath the surface, while windsurfing invites you to glide along soft ocean breezes. For gentle evenings when you long for stillness, wandering the shoreline with waves brushing your feet becomes the perfect way to clear the mind and welcome new intentions for the year ahead.
Here, even mornings are shaped by the rhythm of the coastline. La Citronnelle opens onto wide ocean views, letting the sound of the waves frame slow, sunny mornings. Lakaze, set directly on the beach, is ideal for returning between swims or water activities, with sand-under-foot dining that keeps you connected to the shoreline. As the light shifts later in the day, Blue Penny Cellar and Deer Hunter restaurant offer intimate and atmospheric spaces to soak in carefully selected wines and Indian Ocean-inspired drinks after hours spent in sun-kissed bliss.
Soft shores and slow moments at Constance Sakoa Boutik
Overlooking the tranquil lagoon of Trou aux Biches, Constance Sakoa Boutik offers a beautiful retreat shaped entirely by the sea. Here, the water feels close enough to guide the pace of each day, its gentle movement creating a soothing backdrop for guests seeking true renewal.
Days unfold around the resort’s inviting pool, where still, sun-warmed water offers a different kind of calm. Mornings are ideal for gentle swims or quiet moments spent floating beneath open skies, while afternoons invite unhurried relaxation beside the water’s edge. Nearby, the spa extends this sense of ease with restorative treatments designed to release tension and encourage deep relaxation, allowing the body to fully unwind. With the sea always within view, these peaceful poolside moments create a soothing balance between comfort and nature, encouraging you to slow your pace and embrace a softer rhythm to the day.
At Constance Sakoa Boutik, the lagoon becomes the quiet thread running through each day. Its calm presence invites you to slow your breathing, let your thoughts settle and embrace the simple pleasure of being close to the water.
