Map & location
Balaclava, Turtle Bay, north-west Mauritius
Balaclava is a quiet, green corner of the north-west coast, where rivers run down to Turtle Bay – named after the turtles early sailors found here. The Maritim’s estate fills a large stretch of the shore, so the resort feels secluded even though Port Louis and Grand Baie are both close.
Port Louis has the Caudan Waterfront, the central market and the Aapravasi Ghat World Heritage Site, while Grand Baie is the island’s liveliest resort town, with boat trips to the northern islets. The Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam botanical garden at Pamplemousses, famous for its giant water lilies, is a short drive inland.
- Pamplemousses botanical garden about 7km
- Port Louis (Caudan Waterfront) about 8km
- Grand Baie about 11km
- Flic en Flac beach about 26km
- Approx. transfer time from airport about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International (MRU), on the other side of the island.
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
A large outdoor pool sits in the gardens near the beach, with loungers and parasols around it and plenty of shade from the palms.
The beach itself is a long, sandy stretch on Turtle Bay. The water inside the bay is usually calm, and the marine area makes snorkelling straight from the shore rewarding.
Spa, sports & wellness
The spa is set in the gardens, with a sauna and a menu of massages and beauty treatments. Typical facilities include:
• Spa with sauna and treatment rooms
• Fitness room
• Hairdressing salon
• Games room
• Bike hire (extra charge)
• Free Wi-Fi
Activities
The Maritim is known for the amount there is to do on site. Typical options include:
• Snorkelling and water sports on Turtle Bay
• Walking and cycling trails in the nature park
• Kids’ club and playground for younger guests
• Boat trips from Grand Baie to the northern islets
• A day in Port Louis for the market and waterfront
• Visiting the Pamplemousses botanical garden
Guest services
Guest services typically include:
• 24-hour reception
• Room service
• Currency exchange
• Laundry service (extra charge)
• Car hire desk and parking
• Meeting rooms
If anything is especially important to you – accessibility, a quiet room or a special occasion – tell our team before booking and we will check the latest details with the hotel.
Food & drink
The resort has a main buffet restaurant for breakfast and themed dinners, plus à la carte options for evenings out, with Mauritian, Creole and international dishes. Bars by the pool and the beach serve drinks through the day.
The estate is self-contained, but Grand Baie and Port Louis are close enough for a dinner out if you want to explore.
