Let’s kick things off with the obvious: if you like the ocean, you’ll like Paradis Beachcomber Golf Resort & Spa. If you like golf, you’ll love it. If you like both – well, congratulations, you’ve just found your dream holiday.

Perched on the Le Morne Peninsula at the foot of the Morne Brabant Mountain, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Paradis Beachcomber is a sliver of paradise on the southwestern coast of Mauritius. The resort welcomes a slow, languid pace of life enjoyed under the balmy Mauritian sun.

The resort’s 18-hole championship course, flanked by Le Morne Brabant on one side and the shimmering ocean on the other, is the kind of place where even a terrible swing feels satisfying. The course has recently undergone upgrades, ensuring that every putt, drive, and frustrated club toss takes place in pristine conditions. If you’ve never teed off with the ocean breeze in your hair and a mountain looming in the background, well, that’s a you problem. Paradis Beachcomber is here to fix it.

But even the most dedicated golfer can’t live on birdies alone. Enter the resort’s newest addition: padel courts. Padel – think tennis, but friendlier, more social, and easier to pick up – has been gaining traction worldwide, and Beachcomber has taken note. By March 2025, guests at Paradis Beachcomber will be able to try their hand at the fast-paced sport, proving that one can indeed play both golf and padel in a single day.

Of course, if the closest you want to get to a racket is sipping a cocktail near one, that’s fine too. The resort’s four restaurants make sure of that. Blue Marlin, a long-standing institution, has been given a refresh while still serving up seafood so fresh it might as well have walked onto your plate. Zest, the new Mediterranean-inspired eatery, leans into conviviality – long tables, generous plates, and a beachside setting that reminds you why alfresco is always best.

Families are well taken care of too. There’s a dedicated Kids’ Club, a seemingly endless menu of water sports, and even a golf academy for those looking to groom the next Tiger Woods. The wellness-minded, meanwhile, will find solace at the Beachcomber Spa, where you can get stuck into a throng of rejuvenating treatments.

At Paradis Beachcomber, days slip by in a golden haze of sun, sport, and spectacular meals. If that’s not paradise, what is?
