Richly gratifying peregrinations across #Mauritius The journey of building Travel Essence Magazine has brought with it a profound appreciation of the continent I call home. I'm constantly seeking destinations that ignite the soul, and to say #Africa never disappoints is an understatement. It's been a few days since my return to #Dubai from Mauritius, and what beautiful stories of cultural diversity and preservation of history I gleaned from while there! A 6-hour flight from DXB International Airport took us onto the Island, where shortly after arrival, I set off for my first tour of the Chateau de Labourdonnais. Day 1's afternoon was a journey through time, as this iconic landmark isn't just a stunning example of neo-classical architecture – it's a symbol of resilience and cultural fusion that embodies the spirit of Mauritius itself. 150 Years of Family History are deeply embedded in every piece of wood, steel, brick and furniture that form this mansion, built between 1856-1859. I'm certainly looking forward to sharing more glimpses of my Mauritian adventure, where breathtaking landscapes and warm hospitality delivered at every turn during our 7-day tour. A special thank you to Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority for curating such a spectacular itinerary that really showed off the beauty of the island. And to our wonderful friends at Newmark Hotels & Reserves and Poised Solutions (Pty) Ltd for cushioning us with so much luxury with our stays - the Travel Essence Magazine family is grateful.

In her review of The Winchester Hotel, Editor-in-Chief of Travel Essence Magazine , Yvonne Mtengwa (BSc, MSc) takes guests on an experiential tour of the recently renovated hotel facilities and the new Sanctuary Spa. "The spa at The Winchester Hotel spared no spoils for me as I was treated to an afternoon of pure relaxation and rejuvenation during my first-afternoon in-house. Expertly trained therapists offered me an extensive menu of treatments to choose from, each designed to soothe the mind, body and soul. And so of course I was up for a revitalising massage and facial." #TheWinchesterHotel #SeaPoint #NewmarkExperiences #SanctuarySpa #ShoreditchRestaurant Rene Baatjes Walda Lloyd
