Shangri-La’s Le Touessrok Resort & Spa is a luxurious and private getaway located on the calm shores of Trou d’Eau Douce on the East African island of Mauritius. The resort offers uninterrupted views of the Indian Ocean accompanied by white sandy beaches, and features 200 rooms and suites, along with three beach villas—all featuring contemporary island-chic style complemented by thoughtful touches of local character. It also offers exclusive access to Ilot Mangénie island and two championship golf courses.

Located in a beautiful and secluded area of the island surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, CHI, The Spa at Shangri-La's Le Touessrok Resort & Spa, Mauritius offers guests a relaxing and holistic wellness journey. The spa has eight treatment rooms, each with their own design elements inspired by local Mauritian culture, and guests can choose from a range of treatments provided by Carita and Decléor using their signature blends of the finest organic ingredients.

Every quarter, CHI, The Spa also hosts local and international wellness coaches to add new dimension to their offerings. The spa has also embraced World Wellness Day (second Saturday of June) and World Wellness Weekend (September 22 & 23), providing guests a curated well-being schedule. We interviewed Christelle Gamelle, spa manager at the resort, who shared insider tips, recommended spa treatments to try, and more:

Why You’ll Love It: The personalized service dispensed by our talented and well-trained team members, as well as outdoor treatments such as on Ilot Mangenie, the resort’s private island.

Key Features: Set within a secluded area of the resort that is enclosed by luscious, verdant tropical vegetation, CHI, The Spa features design elements inspired by the local culture. Harnessing the naturally rich soils of the island, CHI, The Spa also boasts a private garden, a visually stunning oasis where guests can pick herbs and learn how to create the ointments to be used during their treatments.

Insider’s Tip: Upgrade your treatment with our Caviar Hair Treatment for hydrated and revitalized hair or Caviar Face Mask to hydrate and bring a glow to the skin with anti-aging benefits.

Snacks: Upon arrival at the spa, healthy snacks such as raw nuts and fresh dry fruits, as well as locally-infused fresh citronella are served to guests.

Bonus: The warm towel experience in our treatment services; massage on the private island of Ilot Mangenie; both indoor and outdoor showers in our spa suite; osteopathy service and a nutritionist.

Splurge Treatment: Authentic Coco Massage. This is one of the Mauritian essence massages, which uses fresh coconut oil on the face and body to nurture and balance the body, mind, and soul. Heated coconut oil is good for soothing tired muscles, nourishing the skin, and re-energizing the body.

Insider’s Favorite: Coco Massage and Asian Blend Massage.

Unique Treatment: Traditional Tipik Healing with Sega Rhythm created by the local spa team. This traditional massage was created to soothe the body by releasing muscle stress and help you embrace the island’s peace through the sound of Mauritian Sega Tipik (African beat) rhythms. It helps boost the body’s energy levels, eliminate toxins, improve circulation, and clear the mind.

Featured Products: Carita & Decléor for the Facial and La Sultane de Saba.
