The collection spans marine conservation, culinary immersion, outdoor adventure, and mindful wellness, all shaped by the resort’s Be Iko, Be Lokal, and Be Well pillars.
“Travellers want days that feel both effortless and enriching. Our collection is designed as a set of clear, well-guided journeys that bring the southeast to life, one moment at a time,” said Daniel Méndez, General Manager, Anantara Iko Mauritius Resort & Villas.
