One of the newer additions to the Hoteling scene of Mauritius, it is one of the most promising resort on the Island nation and is fast becoming a favorite of tourists.

First Impression

Contemporary and upscale,  the idea for Long Beach has been woven around the concept of Italian Life. It offers pizzeria style living amidst sun and sands. At the heart of the resort is a lively central piazza complete with restaurants, bars and shops. The architecture is modernist and the buildings look distinctly Mauritian with  their natural form and sublime décor.
