Accommodation in the north of Mauritius
Leaving the east of Mauritius, you will drive to the northern part of the island. In the Creole language, Zilwa means 'islander' and that is exactly what the hotel exudes. Located in a quiet, sheltered bay on the northernmost tip of Mauritius, Zilwa overlooks the northern islands and two small wooded islands that belong to the resort. Zilwa Attitude is not a contemporary beach resort, but invites its guests to discover the authenticity of Mauritius. Contemporary rustic design and Mauritian architecture can be found throughout the hotel. The hotel offers various facilities for both couples on a romantic honeymoon and a wonderful holiday with a family with (young) children. From several restaurants to an extensive spa and from a fun kids' club to no less than four swimming pools, Zilwa Attitude offers it all and always with a smile from the staff.

Northern Mauritius
Northern Mauritius, like most of the island, is known for its soft white-sand beaches and crystal-clear waters surrounded by swaying palm trees. It is home to a variety of fascinating attractions, including the Mauritius National Botanical Garden, with more than 650 plant species; Port Louis, the island's bustling capital; and the Sugar Estate and Museum. Other northern highlights include: lively nightlife in the charming village of Grand Bay with its beautiful beaches and the picturesque village of Cap Malheureux with its famous red-roofed chapel.
