Le Touessrok Mauritius to rebrand as Shangri-La's Le Touessrok Resort & Spa
The Shangri-La brand is set to assume management of the legendary Indian Ocean resort on 15 April, when the property will close for a major renovation. The renovation will encompass all guestrooms and public areas and bring Shangri-La's well-known spa and restaurant concepts to Mauritius.

Shangri-La's Le Touessrok Resort & Spa will be the second property in the brand's growing portfolio of extraordinary five-star resorts in the Indian Ocean, joining Shangri-La's Villingili Resort & Spa, Maldives–one of the world's leading luxury resorts–and preceding the highly anticipated opening of Shangri-La's Hambantota Resort & Spa, Sri Lanka in 2016.

Located on the east coast of Mauritius in one of the island's most spectacular bays, the five-star Le Touessrok Resort is among the world's most distinguished. It has three villas and 200 sea facing guestrooms and suites. Along with extensive water and land-based activities, it offers guests access to Ilot Mangenie, a private, secluded isle with 3.5 kilometres of pristine beach. The resort is also located within five minutes of Ile aux Cerfs, where the 18-hole, par 72 championship golf course designed by Bernhard Langer is located.

Hong Kong-based Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts (www.shangri-la.com), one of the world's premier hotel companies, currently owns and/or manages 89 hotels under the Shangri-La brand with a room inventory of over 36,000. Over four decades the group has established its brand hallmark of ‘hospitality from the heart.' The group has a substantial development pipeline with upcoming projects in mainland China, India, Mongolia, Myanmar, Philippines, Qatar and Sri Lanka.
