Constance Belle Mare Plage

Our verdict

Constance Belle Mare Plage is the resort we suggest to golfers, food and wine lovers, and families who want a classic five-star on one of the island's best beaches. It sits on 2 km of white sand on the east coast, protected by the reef, in 15 hectares of gardens, about an hour from the airport. Next door are its two 18-hole championship courses, the Legend and the Links, and green fees are free for hotel guests. There are eight restaurants and eight bars, including Blue Penny Cellar, a restaurant in a wine cellar of about 35,000 bottles, and the resort hosts Constance's annual culinary festival. Every room faces the sea; the Junior Suites (68 m²) take two adults and two children, and children aged 4 to 11 have the Coconut Tribe kids club. The trade-offs: the entry-level Prestige Rooms take only one child, there's no Teens Club and no lifts, and the east coast is breezier in winter (about June to September). Against Long Beach, on the same stretch of coast: choose Belle Mare Plage for two championship courses on your doorstep, a longer beach and serious dining. Choose Long Beach for a Teens Club and a modern resort where every room is a suite of 60 m² or more.

At a glance

Which room to book

• Couples: a Prestige Room (45 m², balcony or terrace, bath and shower), sea-facing or, for a little more, beachfront. For more space, a Junior Suite (68 m²) with a large terrace or balcony, a walk-in dressing room and a Nespresso machine.
• Couple with one child: a Prestige Room takes two adults and one child.
• Family of four: a Junior Suite (68 m², sofa bed) takes two adults and two children; beachfront Junior Suites can connect for bigger families. A Deluxe Suite (96 m²) adds a separate living room.
• Bigger families or two couples: a Pool Villa (375 m², two bedrooms, private heated pool, villa master service) for four adults and two children, or a three-bedroom villa (525 m²).
• Reduced mobility: two Junior Suites are wheelchair accessible, with step-free access. There are no lifts, so book early.

Children

• Coconut Tribe: the kids club for ages 4 to 11, built around five themes: outdoor adventures, eco-missions, kindness, wellness and hands-on science and art. There are tennis and golf taster sessions, cooking, a pool for games, movie nights, and an imagination space for 4- to 6-year-olds. You can register at any time during your stay.
• Under 4s: Coconut Tribe starts at 4. Babysitting is available at extra cost, and baby equipment (car seats, strollers) on request.
• Teens: no Teens Club. Teenagers have the free water sports, including waterskiing and wakeboarding, padel and tennis, and golf.
• Food: a children's à la carte menu is available, at extra cost.
• For a Teens Club on the same beach, choose Long Beach.

Meal plans

Our current packages are on half board, which at Constance usually means breakfast and dinner at La Citronnelle, the main buffet restaurant. Constance also sells all-inclusive, and promotes all-inclusive honeymoon packages, but it doesn't publish the contents on the resort's pages.

Before we quote, we confirm which à la carte restaurants are included, the supplements, and what the all-inclusive covers (drinks, brands, restaurants), and set it out in writing.

What's free on every plan:

• water sports from the boathouse: waterskiing, wakeboarding, windsurfing, kayaks, pedalos, Hobie Cat, laser, glass-bottom boat and snorkelling trips;
• green fees on the Legend and Links courses, the shuttle to them, and a weekly group golf lesson;
• tennis, padel (rackets and balls for hire), mini golf, volleyball and group fitness classes.

What's paid: diving, private lessons, motorised excursions, golf equipment and carts, and spa treatments.

What we'd do: with eight restaurants and a serious wine list, half board with a few dinners out at Blue Penny Cellar or La Spiaggia is the way to enjoy Belle Mare Plage.

Restaurants

Restaurants:

• La Citronnelle: the main restaurant, a buffet with eight stations from South-East Asia, India, the Mediterranean and Mauritius, a bakery and live cooking. Breakfast 07:00 to 10:30, dinner 18:30 to 22:30.
• Indigo: on the water's edge, for lunch, afternoon bites and themed dinners: sushi, charcoal-grilled meat and seafood, and wood-fired pizza.
• Lakaze: a beach restaurant for lunch, with a salad bar, grills and a dessert buffet, and pancakes and waffles in the afternoon.
• La Spiaggia: Mediterranean, on a deck over the ocean in the villa area, dinner only.
• Blue Penny Cellar: à la carte in a wine cellar of about 35,000 bottles, dinner only.
• Blu Sushi Lounge: modern Japanese, dinner three or four times a week.
• Deer Hunter: at the Legend clubhouse, Indian Ocean food and venison, from breakfast to dinner.
• Le Swing: lunch at the Links clubhouse.

Bars include The Bar, at the heart of the resort, with a 10-metre counter, more than 200 rums and live entertainment (08:00 to 00:30); The Blu Bar on the beach; the swim-up Lakaze bar; and the wine bars at La Citronnelle and Blue Penny Cellar.

Room service runs 24 hours.

Honest downsides

• Prestige Rooms take one child. A family of four needs a Junior Suite or two connecting rooms.
• No Teens Club, and the kids club starts at 4.
• The east coast in winter. Belle Mare faces the sunrise and the trade winds, so from about June to September it's breezier than the west coast.
• No lifts. Buildings have up to three floors.
• The meal plans aren't published in detail. We confirm half board and all-inclusive contents in writing before you book.
• A big resort. 278 rooms and suites, eight restaurants: polished and busy rather than intimate.
