Set along one of the island’s most pristine and largest natural lagoons, Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita extends through the impossibly turquoise waters on the east coast, offering a natural wonderland for wellness seekers.
The overwater spa, with its freestanding treatment villas, lends itself naturally to holistic healing at waters’ edge. “Our treatments reflect the spirit of Africa and the Indian Ocean,” says Martin Dell, general manager. “The spa’s gardens are home to an abundance of tropical plants and trees such as aloe vera and lemongrass, which are cultivated for use in treatments to harness their natural healing properties,” adds Joelle Jennepy, senior director of spa. Expressing the local healing traditions, the spa menu offers a glimpse into the diverse cultures on the island with signature therapies like the Mauritian Fusion Massage and Indian Bliss Massage, besides the luxurious pampering highlighted by the Coconut and Aloe Island Ritual.
Innovation is at the heart of the spa. Four Seasons Mauritius is proud to highlight the exclusive partnership with MyBlend range of skincare products to offer elevated restorative treatments. Collaborating with a spa on the island for the first time, this cutting-edge brand is now available in Mauritius exclusively for guests staying at the resort. MyBlend has perfected the art of holistic skincare with its intuitive approach to treatment. Their award-winning innovative anti-aging technology follows three simple steps: nourishment from within with food supplements rich in vitamins and nutrients, taking care of the skin with highly concentrated and clean skincare products, and finally, maximizing the effects with the use of a full face LED mask. “By blending cosmetic agents with LED masks and food supplements, they deliver a comprehensive healing programme that is guaranteed to achieve lasting efficacy and care,” says Joelle. Just a little help goes a long way with wellness; sometimes all one needs is to give the body a little boost to help rejuvenate and respond to the treatment.
From its recyclable packaging to clean formulas, MyBlend’s products strike a chord with the resort’s robust sustainability programme. “Luxury is no longer about appearance, it's about respect,” Martin comments on the choice of this partnership, “Each guest who experiences a transformational MyBlend treatment is supporting ‘La Maison des Femmes’, an organisation that provides care and assistance to women who have endured domestic, psychological or sexual abuse.” Besides its social responsibility, the brand has already made changes to its product range. “17 ingredients have been blacklisted, including volatile silicones, MIT, BHA and 8HT, mineral and petrochemical oils and sulfated surfactants,” shares Joelle, indicating that these ingredients either have a negative impact on the environment or are potentially controversial for the skin. “We invite all our guests to invest in a little self-healing with the benefits of this miraculous product amplified in the blissful setting of our seaside spa,” she quips.
