There are many things I could say about Mauritius, things I discovered, things that have been told to us by our guide, stories the locals remember…but the most powerful thing I keep in mind about Mauritius is one essential thing: During my stay there I haven’t seen one person, yes, not even one person, who didn’t smile.

Now, after almost two weeks since I got back, yes, this is my most powerful memory of Mauritius: the positive energy I felt during my stay there.

I’ve been invited by Club Med to see their two resorts in Mauritius, what you’ ll see below are a few takes we did in one of their resorts, a place where families, but also couples without children can relax and enjoy a memorable vacation on Dodo’s island.

Here’s all of us, Cristina, Raluca, Ileana and me, with our adopted child, Costrut.

Iqos is life

One of the revelations of this adventure was Turkish Airlines, which I have access before but never the business services. Well, I was profoundly impressed, from their internet services, to their gourmet catering and their staff’s politeness, everything was impeccable. And just wait and see their Istanbul airport – the fancy-est business lounge.

A few highlights deserve to be mentioned about Club Med – La Pointe Auc Canonniers – Mauritius , you know, like the fact that their beds are the most comfortable I have ever experienced or like I mentioned, everyone’s positive vibes, or maybe the breathtaking  landscapes or the delicious sugar tea (like sugar plant tea, not actually sugar teas, as, us, occidentals perceive it) we’ve tasted. But what’s the most pregnant thing that made me love this island and this resort were the all inclusive services (by the way, did you knew Club Med created the All Inclusive concept?). And when I say all inclusive its not the all inclusive state we’re all accustomed to:  you don’t have to dance in groups. At Club Med, All Inclusive means, being known by your name and by your own preferences. And having those personal preferences fulfilled. Because that’s what ALL INCLUSIVE means. 

But more on the subject and my next Mauritius, The Island of a Thousand Tales adventure in the next episode.
