"The art of living in Mauritius"

After a long flight and a long drive through the centre of the island and up the western coast, arriving at the Meridien is like taking a deep breath. While you are greeted by the friendly concierge, your luggage is taken care of and you are guided to sit down at a table by the reception desk to do the formalities in a most informal way. A welcome cocktail is served and while sipping it you are stunned by the magnificent view over the ocean and the pool area on one side and lush green hills with mountains in exotic shapes on the other.
