Tennis stars seeking some rest and relaxation in Mauritius have made Beachcomber hotels their first choice for a holiday in the sun. During October and November 2008 a plethora of top tennis names featured on the guest lists of Le Mauricia, Paradis, Dinarobin and Royal Palm. And it’s not surprising! Not only is the Beachcomber brand the most visible in Mauritius but the hotel group is also the official partner of HEAD, world leader in the technology and design of sporting equipment. HEAD supplies the nine hotels in the Beachcomber group with their tennis equipment. Part of the agreement also involves the creation of the “Beachcomber HEAD Tennis Academies”, state-of-art tennis training centres, in Mauritius, Seychelles and ultimately at the new Royal Palm in Marrakech. As a result of this partnership, players in the HEAD PRO TEAM are regularly spotted at one of the group’s hotels, often delighting guests with tennis demonstrations.

The most recent visit was that of French Tennis Player Gilles Simon in November who initially stayed at Paradis before moving to Le Mauricia, another Beachcomber hotel, to play an exhibition match.

Other French players including Paul-Henri Mathieu (ATP rank 32) and Jeremy Chardy (ATP rank 73) have also stayed at Paradis at the beginning of November.

The elegant 5-star resort Paradis Hotel & Golf Club has earned an excellent reputation with international athletes thanks to its extensive range of land and water sports, which includes a spectacular 18-hole golf course built on the resort’s premises.

Players of the HEAD PRO TEAM, including the Swiss national Stanislas Wawrinka and French player Marc Gicquel chose the tranquil atmosphere and setting of the Dinarobin Hotel Golf & Spa, which shares all the facilities of sister hotel Paradis on the spectacular Le Morne Peninsula.

More recently, Raphaël Nadal, the world number one tennis player, spent a few days at the Royal Palm, the most prestigious address in the Indian Ocean and flagship property of the Beachcomber group in Mauritius. These are just some of the stars you may come across during your stay at one of Beachcomber’s hotels.
