Family Traditions at The St. Regis Le Morne

More than a beach break, The St. Regis Le Morne offers a chance to build family rituals that stay with you. Set in one of Mauritius’ most striking locations, it’s a place where local culture, nature, and togetherness shape each day. Each day brings something new — baking local treats, flying kites on the beach, learning Sega steps, or simply watching the sun dip behind the ocean. These aren’t scheduled activities; they’re memories in the making. Guided by a team who understand the rhythms of family life, every detail is considered — from the youngest guests to grandparents. This is where traditions begin. What follows is a closer look at the signature family experiences that make it all possible.

The Kids Butler

Thoughtful, personal, and entirely attuned to family life — the Kids Butler at The St. Regis Le Morne is there to make every moment easier and more enjoyable. Created as a family-focused extension of the resort’s renowned Butler Service, it brings the same level of intuitive care to younger guests and their parents. Whether it’s planning a day of activities, setting up a surprise treat after a swim, or arranging a quiet evening in with games and snacks, no detail is too small. It’s about knowing what matters before you need to ask — and delivering it with care, so you can focus on what really counts: time together.

A Taste of Mauritian Culture

Mauritius is an island shaped by many influences — African, Indian, French, and Creole — and there's no better way to experience that richness than through shared, hands-on moments. Families can take part in craft workshops using natural materials, try Sega dancing with local musicians, or join nature walks that uncover the stories behind the island’s plants and wildlife. It’s not about observing from a distance, but joining in — side by side — with activities that are playful, memorable, and rooted in tradition. For children, it’s a window into another world; for adults, a reminder of how discovery often comes through the simplest things.

Family Chef’s Table

Cooking together has a way of bringing people closer — and at The St. Regis Le Morne, the Family Chef’s Table turns that into something special. Guided by our chefs, families are invited into the kitchen to explore the flavours of Mauritius hands-on. You’ll prepare traditional dishes using fresh, local ingredients, learning the stories behind them as you go. It’s relaxed, interactive, and always tailored to suit the age and interest of each guest. At the end, you sit down together to enjoy what you’ve made — a shared meal, and a shared memory.

The Kite Flyers’ Club

Designed for children aged 4 to 12, The Kite Flyers’ Club is a space where curiosity leads the way. With a changing programme of age-tailored activities — from nature walks and Creole storytelling to hands-on crafts and local games — it offers young guests a chance to explore, create, and connect. There’s also space for quiet play, with a shaded outdoor area and shallow pool, all supervised by a team who understand how to make children feel safe and inspired. While grown-ups unwind, young explorers make their own discoveries.

The Kite Tradition

On the wide, wind-swept beach at The St. Regis Le Morne, a simple tradition takes flight. The Kite Tradition celebrates the timeless joy of kite flying — not just for children, but as a cherished family ritual. With gentle support from the activity team, families gather on the beach to craft and fly colourful kites — a joyful ritual that brings generations together. There’s a rhythm to it — the tug of the string, the laughter on the breeze, the shared concentration as young and old alike coax their creations into flight. It’s a moment of connection that needs no words. Set against the backdrop of Le Morne’s dramatic landscape, it becomes something quietly unforgettable — a pause in time, held by the wind.

Water Sports Club

There’s something about the water here — clear, calm, and full of possibility. At The St. Regis Le Morne, the Water Sports Club is where families can set off on a different kind of adventure. Paddle together in a kayak, drift out in a pedal boat, or take a peek beneath the surface on a glass-bottom boat trip — it’s all right on your doorstep. For those wanting a little more speed, there’s water skiing and windsurfing, with friendly instructors on hand to help you get started or sharpen your skills. You can even try sailing along the lagoon, where the views of Le Morne from the water are something special.

Where Family Traditions Begin

At The St. Regis Le Morne, family time takes on new meaning. It’s not just about what you do — it’s how you do it, and who you share it with. Whether you’re cooking side by side at the Family Chef’s Table, learning Sega steps in the sunshine, or watching a handmade kite take flight against the backdrop of Le Morne, every moment is made to bring people closer. For families looking to slow down, reconnect, and start their own traditions, The St. Regis Le Morne is more than a destination. It’s where togetherness finds its rhythm — and where it’s never too late to begin something meaningful.
