It all began with a chance stop in Balaclava one breezy afternoon, at Baie aux Tortues, also known as Turtle Bay, on the North West coast of Mauritius. We caught sight of old ruins and remnants; an ancient wall made of cut stones and another one with arched openings, signs of an olden civilization and colonization. Our imagination ran wild. We wanted to know more about this place. Mauritius is not just about beautiful beaches. It also hides intriguing historical sites…
Once upon a time, or Jadis in French, there was a secluded bay in Balaclava where the Dutch settled in 1646. It was the Dutch’s second occupation in Mauritius and they chose this cove for its year-round sheltered location. At the time, the bay was home to an impressive number of giant turtles and it was hence named Turtle Bay. The turtles were so massive that four persons could sit on one. There were as well indigenous birds that flew low as they were not used to predators. Likewise, the Dodo birds were easily caught. The land was full of lush red, white and black Ebony trees. These were traded in Europe and Balaclava was the place of their embarkation. There were also Latanier palm trees with large leaves, which served as umbrellas for the Dutch.
What the Dutch saw and lived in Turtle Bay back then, no one else did. Colonized by the French in the 17th century, the area was transformed into an embattled fort and the remnants are what were once an arsenal for the French army. From the elevated land where we were standing by the ancient stone wall, once an observation point, we could visualise soldiers watching out for enemy ships entering the island through nearby Tombeau Bay.
A stunning sunset over the small beach cove, the soothing view of the turquoise sea, and the sound of gentle waves caressing the beach, added to the feeling of mystery, serenity, seclusion, and romance of the place. We dared to dream: could we make this moment into an eternity? An eternity that everyone could discover and in which they could find solace… A Luxury Boutique Resort & Wellness was thus born, Le Jadis.
Le Jadis embodies the continuity of the civilization that was once there, and its evolution. The ancient stone wall on the beach, though kept intact, has been moved further inland in order to put an end to the sand erosion that it was causing, and give back to the beach today what was taken away from it over time. As for the newly-erected walls of the resort, they immortalize the cut stones of the colonization era while embracing today’s technique of handcrafting stones. Featuring distinctive thatched roofs, the architecture of the resort reflects a melting pot of cultures from Asia, Europe and Africa, thereby perfectly encapsulating how Mauritius has evolved since its first colonization.
Nestled near the Balaclava-Turtle Bay Marine Park, the first of only two national marine parks of Mauritius, in the quietude of Balaclava, Le Jadis is the ideal hideaway for those who seek refuge from crowds and noise. It is located a mere twenty minutes from the tourist village of Grand Baie, and the Mont Choisy Le Golf estate, as well as 45 minutes from the Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International airport.
The award-winning luxury property, previously named Angsana Balaclava Mauritius, is managed by Banyan Tree Hotels and Resorts. Blissfully intimate, timelessly elegant, inspiringly romantic, and reflecting a strong focus on thoughtful design as well as green features, Le Jadis is paving the way for a very unique resort lifestyle in Mauritius.
