Location
Constance Lemuria Resort is attractively and sensitively designed to blend into the hillside at Anse Kerlan, only a few minutes’ drive from the airport. The calm simplicity of the hotel welcomes you into a sense of tranquillity the moment you arrive. The main building is is utterly charming: a mix of natural materials suffused with light and views of pools or ocean in every direction. The main pool has three levels flowing from the hotel down to the sea and the fragrance of frangipani awakens your senses.
However, despite the luxury and scale of this 5 star resort, the environment has been left as natural as possible. Turtles still lay their eggs on the white sandy beaches of Anse Kerlan in complete tranquillity. Anse Gorgette has been ranked as one of the top 10 beaches in the world.
