New resorts and luxury properties are creating their own little havens of wellness, peace and tranquillity. They are competing with each other by introducing every possible element to soothe and calm the guests. In the midst of these much-in-demand oases, there are properties that focus more on wellness. By sheer virtue of their natural location, being surrounded by pristine backdrops and with the use of locally sourced materials, they have been following the wellness mantra much before wellness became a fashionable term. We look at five such luxury properties that have a strong wellness quotient inbuilt into their hospitality code. Rather it lies at the very centre of their “operations” and little wonder then that it has a steady and loyal clientele who come to them for their dose of wellness.

Set on a pristine coral sand cove on the southern coast of Mauritius, Shanti Maurice - A Nira Resort is luxuriously spread over 36 acres of tropical gardens, surrounded by sugarcane fields, lush hills and the turquoise Indian Ocean. A world-class 75,000-squarefoot Nira Spa and succulent eateries dedicated to capturing the essence of traditional Mauritian cuisine tempt you with their 44 spacious suites and 17 villas, each of which is ocean-facing and among the most generously sized in the region. Outdoor rain showers and dining pavilions or “Salas,” within the villas with private pools and an easy-going ambience that runs through the entire resort, makes the stay memorable in more ways than one.
