A Slice of Paradise - Preskil Island Resort Revisited

Since I last visited in 2016 this resort has undergone a major refurbishment and is set to reopen on the 15 May 2019 so read all about this amazing resort
The New Le Preskil Resort

Arrival

When we arrived at Preskil Beach we actually arrived by speedboat however most clients arrive at the fantastic resort normally by private car and its just a short 15 minute transfer.

 Preskil Beach Resort is on the South-East coast of Mauritius. The resort is the only hotel in Mauritius to be on a private peninsula, which gives you a feeling of your own private island, with a large beach which gently slopes into the breathtaking turquoise coloured lagoon making it good for families.

Say I do 


The hotel is very popular with weddings, but they still only offer one wedding per day with a dedicated team looking after all your desires and dreams whilst you are there; couples can choose to get married on the beach, in the gazebo or even on one of the catamaran yachts

Dining 

The resort has three restaurants offering something for everyone, Rendez-Vous, the main restaurant and where your day starts with a buffet breakfast with eggs and omelettes cooked to order whilst for lunch and dinner you will live the “local market experience” for lunch and supper, discovering a creative cuisine made from the freshest local ingredients and best imported foods. You will taste different flavours from all four corners of the world, all the while interacting with and observing the chefs at work.
Rendez-Vous
1810, the beach restaurant is located on the beach facing the turquoise lagoon, it offers Mauritian specialities for lunch and let yourself be impressed with beautiful dishes (mainly seafood treats) for dinner.
1810 Beach Restaurant
Mosaïc, the Mediterranean restaurant is open for dinner most evenings and is rich in flavours coming from the different cultures it brings together… At the Mosaïc, you will travel across this region by tasting a variety of typical dishes specially prepared by the Chef, either with fresh Western ingredients or delicious Oriental spices.
Whilst at Medley, the main bar, cocktails are in fashion, especially after a long day under the hot sun of a tropical island… the resident mixologist will propose a selection of creative cocktails for all tastes, served in modern or somewhat eccentric glasses. Thanks to their “Best Brews” concept, you will also be able to enjoy one (or more!) of 12 different beers from 12 different countries. And if you are a wine lover, there are over 50 carefully selected wines for you to choose from.

Ahoy 

The hotel has its own catamaran which we were lucky to have to ourselves for the morning for a cruise over to Ile Aux Cerfs with time for snorkelling and a delicious BBQ lunch cooked on board before being dropped off at the island for an hour, this beautiful paradise island has stunning beaches, restaurants, shops and even a golf course and where you can walk between the two islands through a narrow channel.

Activities 

Why not enjoy some of the resorts complimentary water sports such as stand up paddle boarding or windsurfing or if you prefer land then there is speedminton, pentanque, volleyball, tennis, table tennis and football.

Enjoy a swim in their new infinity pool. Whilst if you are a scuba diver then the spectacular underwater scenery in the unique marine park island just a short distance away is amazing.
New Swimming Pool 

Kids have fun too

Children will go on real adventures at the Tikoulou Kids Club! Welcoming kids aged 3 to 12 years old, the club offers fun activities that will delight your little ones!

The Waldorf Astoria Dubai - unpretentious elegance

Image
The Australian Adventure had ended but we still had a few days to chill out and relax in Dubai. When you have been away for 7 weeks and you are flying home from Australia, the last thing you want to do is fly straight home, if you are going to have jet-lag, then why not relax in scrumptious surroundings and glorious sunshine and having worked there as a Holiday Representative a few years ago,  Dubai was the perfect answer. The Wardorf Astoria is located on the iconic Palm Jumeriah island, which can be seen from space, and was the perfect spot for a relaxing stay. There is building work going on the Palm but to be honest that can be said for most of Dubai and will continue until 2020. On arrival we received a wonderful welcome from the concierge and whisked straight to the glass lift and up to the 5th floor where the Waldorf Astoria Lounge is located and it was here that we were checked in.  We were staying in a King Deluxe Suite with sea-view which was located on ...

2 Days of Exploring the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria

Image
Day 4 The weather was not on our side as we left the Twelve Apostles, in fact it more of less followed us all the way back to Melbourne and on to the Mornington Peninsula. The Mornington Peninsula has long been established as Melbourne's favourite playground located about an hours drive south east of Melbourne.   If there is something familiar about the Mornington Peninsula its because it has a bit of a Mediterranean feel about it especially with the olives groves and vineyards dotted around.  Its a great location to escape from the city and head for some truly idyllic beaches with some pretty familiar names! With historic fishing villages such as Hastings and laid back shoreline locations such as Sorrento it won’t be long before you’re affected by the charm of this little piece of land. We were staying for two nights however the rain had followed us so we didn't really get to see the beauty of this place until the next morning. Day 5 We got up b...

Brisbane and her surroundings

And so our Australian Adventure continues with .... Day 9   We arrived at my Cousin Clare and her husband Robs house which was located in a suburb just outside Brisbane called Rochedale South where we would base ourselves for the next few weeks and were so happy that we could actually unpack properly for the first time since leaving the UK. Day 10 This was my cousins daughters christening day. Day 11 Andy was excited to visit Rob's shop Hobby1  and like a kid in a sweet shop as its the place to visit if you are into Model Kits, Model Railways, Radio Control Vehicles, Drones, Slot Cars, Diecast Models, Puzzles or Rockets, you will certainly find it all there at Hobby One. Day 13  Today we found out that the Australians love a pie.  We visited the famous  Yatala Pie Shop.  This shop has been in the area for more than 130 years and nowadays often sells in excess of 3,500 pies a day and even has a drive through.  They have a g...
