Good times, together

We believe that holidays are not only for escaping the everyday, but also a precious chance to reconnect and remind ourselves of the most important thing in life – each other.

Derived from 'tamasha', a Hindi word used in Mauritian Creole meaning festive, Tamassa’s three syllables evoke the pounding beat of the tam-tam drum. Our rallying call to gather family and friends and join us at a place dedicated to sharing good times, together.

Go to Tamassa Mauritius

Together you'll Love…

We want to ensure that all our guests feel a little closer and leave happier than when they arrived. With dining experiences to remember, activities to share or simply moments to cherish, at Tamassa, ‘together’ really is a wonderful place to be.

... How we bring people closer

We believe in celebrating the little things that make you smile, surrounded by those who matter most. Perfect your duet during a karaoke session or enjoy the simple pleasure of discovering a wooden swing strung from a tree. It’s often the unexpected moments that become your favourite holiday memories.

... Our fresh take on wellness

Inspired by the pursuit of happiness and joy, this isn’t your usual resort spa. More fun and less prescriptive, forget serious staff and hushed voices. Reserve some personal ‘me time’, a bonding experience for two or even some social pampering. It’s your space to relax, treat yourself and enjoy each other’s company.

... Drinking and dining with us

The best memories are often made around a table, and good food always tastes better paired with great company. With a focus on fresh, simple ingredients paired with a dose of theatricality and fun, we’re bringing the art of conversation back to the table – and everyone’s invited.

... How we take care of families

Happy kids equals happy parents, and we’ve not forgotten about our youngest guests when it comes to sharing good times. At our Kids Club, we guide children back to the days when summer holidays meant making real friends, and ended with a new ‘best friend forever’.

... How we take care of the planet

Caring comes in many forms: beach clean-ups, tree-planting, waving goodbye to plastic with our own water bottling plant, banning motorized sports in our lagoon, tending to our endemic plants, cultivating our herb garden, carbon off-setting, and getting together with like-minded people such as IT MUST BE NOW.

Everyone appreciates a break from the lounger and the chance to try something new, but in addition to the holiday activities you’ve probably come to expect, we offer our guests something a little more meaningful. At Tamassa, you’ll discover what we mean when we say that laughter really is the best therapy.

    Travel today

    Travel can seem a little complicated at the moment. But really it just requires some extra planning. Be sure to check your country's regulations. Here's the status in our destinations:

     

    Mauritius

    Great news! Mauritius is fully open! We compiled the most frequently asked questions below. We also invite you to consult the official Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority website for the latest updates and more detailed information: https://mauritiusnow.com

    La Reunion

    Local friends, please simply follow the nation’s protocol: social distancing, wear your mask when you move around the resort, sanitize your hands and follow the signs. Travellers from abroad will need to present a negative PCR test taken less than 72h prior to departure. They must also be fully vaccinated or present an overriding reason.

    China

    Over in China, the doors to our resorts and retreats are open to domestic travellers only, as borders remain closed for now. A health QR code is required upon check-in. Local travellers from high and middle-risk areas should check in with their region's regulations.

    Maldives

    The Maldives' one island=one resort has made it an alluring destination since day 1. You must present a negative PCR test taken less than 96h prior to the time of departure from the first embarkation point en route to the Maldives. This test applies to travellers of all ages, except infants 0-12 months. You must also fill out an online Traveller Health Declaration (https://imuga.immigration.gov.mv/) within 24h of your departure to and from the Maldives. You must also fill out the Resort Health Declaration form sent by our reservations team and email it back to stay@luxmaldivesresort.com 48h prior to your arrival.

    For extra precaution, at LUX* South Ari Atoll, we require a PCR test on arrival at our seaplane lounge (free of charge) for travellers age 6 and upward, both vaccinated and unvaccinated. If you are coming from another resort, island or boat, you must present a negative PCR test taken within 24h of your arrival. You can coordinate the PCR testing with the property you were at before. If you are unvaccinated and traveling from another resort, island or boat, we encourage you to arrive before noon in order to receive the test results before 6pm, as you will be asked to stay in your villa until the negative PCR test results arrive. You can expect to receive the results within 6-12h. Vaccinated travelers - be sure to have your vaccination card on hand, as it will be requested at check-in.

    Arrivals from India, Brazil, Russia & Ukraine: If you are not fully vaccinated, you will be required to stay in your villa until the negative PCR test results arrive. You can expect to receive the results within 6-12h. Vaccinated travelers - be sure to have your vaccination card on hand, as it will be requested at check-in.

    Arrivals from South Africa, Namibia, Lesotho, Botswana, Eswatini and Zimbabwe: You will be required to stay in your villa until the negative PCR test results arrive. You can expect to receive the results within 6-12h.

    You will be required to take an additional PCR test 48-hours from the time of your arrival at the resort. It's free of charge.

    Arrival protocol will be applicable for all guests visited South Africa within 30 days prior to arrival at the resort.

    If your home country or next destination requires a PCR test, we can do it from the comfort of our resort for USD 125 per test.

    COVID-19 insurance: The Maldives offers a COVID-19 insurance which travellers can purchase prior to their arrival. It covers medical expenses, isolation and transportation costs.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS TRAVELLING TO MAURITIUS

  1. Mauritius is open I hear. What’s the protocol?

    From the 1st of October 2021, vaccinated travellers can travel to Mauritius quarantine-free. They must simply show a negative PCR test taken at least 72 hours prior to embarkation. Upon check-in, an additional antigenic test is required, as well as on day 5. We are happy to cover both tests per traveler per stay (kids included!) Once the first antigenic test is cleared, you are free to wander the island as you please.

    Unvaccinated travellers are required to stay in an official quarantine for 14 days. After 3 negative PCR tests, they are free to wander the island on day 14.

  2. I want to travel to Mauritius. Which of your resorts can I stay in?

    Vaccinated travellers and vaccinated locals can stay at LUX* Grand Gaube Resort & Villas, LUX* Le Morne Resort, LUX* Belle Mare Resort & Villas, SALT of Palmar, and Tamassa Bel Ombre. As from December, you can discover our new flagship, LUX* Grand Baie Resort & Residences.

  3. I'm fully vaccinated. Do I need a PCR test?

    Yes. You must present a negative PCR test taken at least 72h prior to boarding. If you are heading to a resort, you will only be required to take one antigenic test at the hotel upon arrival and one on day 5. We will happily cover the costs of these two tests. If you are not staying in a hotel/resort, you will be required to take a PCR test at the airport upon arrival.

  4. Which vaccines does Mauritius recognize?

    You must be fully vaccinated with any of the following: AstraZeneca Covidshield, AstraZeneca Vaxzevria, Covaxin, Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, Pfizer, Sinopharm, Sputnik.

    For double vaccinations, the second dose must have been injected for at least 14 days. For single dose vaccines, 28 days before embarkation for Mauritius.

    Or you must present an official document attesting that you have had a COVID-19 infection and can justify a dose of vaccine injected after infection at least 14 days prior to boarding.

  5. What about the hotel staff? Are they vaccinated?

    All of our Team Members and their immediate families have been vaccinated. We also take daily temperature checks of all Team Members, as well as all precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

  6. Do I have to wear a mask?

    A mask isn't required when you're at the pool, the beach, or seated at a restaurant or bar. However, you will need to wear a mask when you're going from one place to another.

  7. Can I travel with kids?

    Absolutely. Children under the age of 18 do not have to be vaccinated to enter Mauritius. However they will be required to present a negative PCR test taken 72h prior to embarkation (the PCR test can be performed in oro-phraryngeal up to the age of 6), one antigen test upon check-in at the resort, and one on day 5. We will happily cover the cost of these two antigen tests.

  8. How do I get from the airport to the hotel?

    After going through baggage claim, you can reach your hotel by organised transfer, taxi, rental car, or any other means of transportation. Just be sure to disinfect your hands, wear a mask and roll down the windows!

  9. My home country requires a PCR test before boarding my return flight.
    Will that be readily available?

    Yes. The test can be conducted at the resort and be collected by the private clinic at your expense. Just get in touch with us at Reception so we can schedule it for you.
