Long Beach is a major new resort opening on the east coast of Mauritius in 2011. It brings carefree piazza-style living to the longest and widest stretch of white-sand coastline of any Mauritian resort. Beyond the beach, the tropical lagoon with its crystal clear blue waters and rare coral formations is a snorkelling paradise.

The focus of the resort’s layout and its life is the urban-style piazza with restaurants, shops and bars. Architecture brings tropical interpretations to contemporary urban themes, softened by natural forms, local detailing and materials. Buildings integrate with the resorts extensive lush tropical gardens. A unique architectural feature is the adjustable “wind breaks” that modulate the offshore breezes.

There are 255 rooms arranged in three 'crescents'. Every room has a view of the ocean and a minimum 109m² of its own beach space. The chic contemporary designs blend together open-air and indoor living. Magnificent king-sized beds and stylish furniture harmonise well with the soft furnishings in tones of apple green, coral red, white and ash grey-white.

42'' LCD flat-screen TVs receive satellite sports and entertainment, international news and kids' channels, in English, French, German and Italian. Rooms also have international direct-dial telephones, Wi-Fi internet access (charged extra), iPod stations, digital clocks, radios, electronic room safes, hairdryers, individually controlled air-conditioning and electrical shaver points (110/220 volts). All rooms have fully stocked mini-bars, tea and coffee making facilities. They have separate shower, toilet and bath.
