Grand Baie, in the north, is Mauritius's holiday town: a busy bay full of boats, the La Croisette shopping mall, souvenir shops, restaurants of every kind and the island's main bars and clubs.
From the villa it's a 1h15 drive, so an evening out here works best with a driver or on a day in the north.
