Accommodation ranges from 92 refurbished sea-facing Prestige Rooms to 137 Sea View Suites, with balconies or terraces across the board and every room facing the Indian Ocean, so you're waking up to water views each morning. If you're travelling as a couple, the Prestige Rooms are ideal for a comfortable base between beach time and tee times, with air-conditioning, satellite television, direct dial telephone, safe deposit box and a dedicated seating area to spread out your kit.
The Sea View Suites give you more breathing space with a separate seating area and a whirlpool bath, which is exactly what you want for proper post-round recovery after walking 18 holes in the Mauritian heat. The extra room also makes them a better fit for families or if you're the sort of golfer who travels with a lot of gear and likes having somewhere to dry things out overnight.
For groups or families who want privacy and their own space, the 20 Garden and Beach Pool Villas are the step up, especially if you like having your own pool and more of a 'villa living' feel between rounds. These sit slightly apart from the main resort buildings, so you get that bit more seclusion while still being close enough to walk to the clubhouses, restaurants and beach. The villas work particularly well for golf societies or extended family trips where you want communal space in the evening but your own retreat during the day.
The Presidential Villa sits right on the beach with uninterrupted sea views and is the top-end option for a true special-occasion trip, whether that's a milestone birthday, anniversary or just a bucket-list golf holiday where you want the full luxury experience.
Proximity to the golf is straightforward. Both clubhouses are within easy reach of the accommodation, either on foot or via a quick buggy transfer if you prefer, and the resort is set up to handle early tee times with takeaway breakfast options and flexible dining if you're heading out at first light. There's also plenty of secure storage for clubs in the rooms and villas, so you're not tripping over your travel bag all week.
Service around tee time logistics and restaurant bookings is quick and genuinely friendly, which matters when you're trying to coordinate a group or just want to make sure everything runs smoothly without having to chase people down.
Dining at Belle Mare Plage is varied and high quality, with enough choice that you won't get bored over a week-long stay. La Citronelle is the main beachside restaurant, perfect for relaxed meals with your feet almost in the sand, while the Blue Penny Café Gourmet Restaurant offers a refined a la carte menu and is worth booking in advance during your stay if you want a proper sit-down dinner with a bit more polish.
For traditional Mauritian dishes, head to the Deer Hunter restaurant, located inside the Legend clubhouse. It's a great spot to refuel after your round, especially if you want to try local flavours like venison curry, palm heart salad or the island's signature rougaille without having to leave the golf precinct.
If you prefer something more casual, Indigo Beach, Le Swing and La Kaze serve sandwiches, salads, grilled dishes and pizzas throughout the day, so you can grab a quick bite between rounds or if you're coming off the beach and don't want to sit down for a full meal. There are six separate bars dotted around the resort, so you'll always find somewhere to grab a drink, whether you're coming off the course, lounging by the pool or watching the sunset from the beach.
The Shiseido Spa is focused not only on cosmetic beauty but a total goal of complete wellbeing, offering treatments aimed at harmony of body and mind. The nearby health and fitness centre boasts a sauna, steam bath, plunge pool, jacuzzi and an aerobic studio which schedules classes including yoga, so there's plenty to do if you want to balance out the golf with some recovery work.
There's a Constance Kids Club for ages 4 to 11, which is a real bonus if you're bringing the family and want the adults to get their golf in without worrying about keeping the kids entertained. The club runs structured activities throughout the day, so younger guests are looked after while you're out on the course.
The beach itself is ideal if you like your beach days with a bit of action. Water sports on offer include kayaking, sailing, water skiing, windsurfing, scuba diving, parasailing and sport fishing, with most activities included as part of the all-inclusive package. You can also take a complimentary glass-bottom boat trip to see the underwater tropical wildlife up close, which is worth doing at least once during your stay.
On land, there's tennis, squash and boule if you want to stay active between rounds, and the resort's layout means you're never more than a short walk from the beach, pool or main facilities.
Service levels are quick and genuinely friendly, especially around tee time logistics and restaurant bookings, which is why Belle Mare Plage has built such a loyal following among golfers returning year after year. It's the kind of place where staff remember your name and preferences, and where the whole operation is geared around making sure your trip runs smoothly without you having to think about the details.
The resort sits on the north-east coast of Mauritius, approximately 60 minutes by road from Sir Ramgoolam International Airport, or just 15 minutes if you opt for a helicopter transfer. Direct flights from London with British Airways or Air Mauritius take around 12 hours, making this an accessible long-haul destination for UK golfers chasing winter sun and world-class golf.
