Westin® Turtle Bay, Balaclava
The Westin® Turtle Bay in Mauritius is the perfect setting for a luxury family holiday with activities for all ages. The beautiful beach has plenty of space for sandcastles or you can head to the watersports centre to choose from the variety on offer - from kayaking and paddleboards to glass-bottomed boats - just the thing for exploring the underwater world with children.
As an all-suite hotel, all the accommodation works well for families. Children will love the alcove bed in the Family Junior Suites, or you can spread out in a 1-bedroom suite, so the children can go to bed early and you don't have to.
Food is another highlight at this hotel, with a delicious buffet in addition to a four à la carte restaurants. Whether you go for a week or a fortnight (or longer!) you'll never get bored!
