international and island cuisine. Here you
can partake in fresh seafood buffets and
regional Chinese, Creole and Indian dishes
as talented local musicians and performers
delight you with a genuine taste of island
entertainment.
The exclusive Orangine is an enchanting
and eclectic mix of classically modern
touches of sparkling glass and polished
wood in a vibrant island ambience. Here
you can tuck into dishes that range from
sumptuous lobster Carpaccio on sugarcane,
papaya spring rolls or homemade cinnamon
and honey ice cream.
At La Plage you can experience a truly
unique dinner experience. Nestled between
the beach and the swimming pool, La Plage
celebrates the traditional Creole cuisine of
the island hosting its guests on a glorious
wooden deck overlooking the lagoon.
Enjoy delicacies such as the spicy sausage
rougail or red tuna tartar, vanilla-flavoured
rum or fresh papaya juice, savoury king
prawns, duck magret or lobster, as well as
the chocolate tart or cardamom-flavoured
banana cake.
Looking for a quick late afternoon snack
or even just a cocktail? Then you can swing
passed Le Bar for a light, fresh lunch or
a laid-back afternoon snack. Overlooking
the crystal clear swimming pool, this
lively venue offers appetising snacks and
refreshing cocktails throughout the afternoon
and evening as the perfect way to unwind
after another adventure-filled day on the
island.
If it's a great cup of java you need then
you have to make your way to Café LUX*,
where the team only serves its very own
blend of certified green organic beans.
Roasted by its experts and prepared by
trained baristas, every cup of coffee served
at Café LUX* is said to be one to savour.
If all else fails then enjoy your meal in
your room. Room Service at LUx* Ile de
La Réunion, is open from 7am to 10pm
for your convenience. A beach and pool
service is also available, as is a private
dining option. Don't forget that there is also
always evening entertainment on offer at
the resort which is made up of talented local
musicians, dancers or island performers.
kIck Back and enjoy
One of Réunion's great treasures is her
beach, but even the beach can't keep some
of the more erstwhile travellers happy. If you
are tired of lounging on the beach and sun
worshipping, then perhaps you would prefer
to do something a little more active.
At LUX* Ile de La Réunion you can
snorkel dive, surf and try your hand at deep-
sea fishing. Alternatively if you have had
enough of water sports then you can always
head inland for hiking, paragliding and
horse riding. According to the team at LUx*
a must see are the waterfalls at Salazie,
alternatively a visit to the historic St Paul to
learn about local folklore at Musée de Villéle
provides something different.
For the more adventurous there is the
Volcano Magic 4x4 tour that takes in the
awe-inspiring natural beauty of Réunion's
most active volcano, Piton de la Fournaise.
To quote: "From the ocean wave geyser at
Souffleur you'll call at Col de Bellevue, the
Biberon waterfalls and the famous church,
Notre Dame des Laves. Following lunch at
Anse des Cascades you'll explore the lava
tunnels with our certified speleologist, your
torch unveiling unlikely shapes and colours
in a magical subterranean world."
an Island TreaT
The LUx* team has combined the notion of
island adventure, luxury accommodation and
gourmet dining and fanfare in an experience
like no other. Remember when ambling
along the beach, should you stumble upon
a message in a bottle it may well be a
complimentary spa treatment or a voucher
for an outrageous experience. At LUx* Ile de
La Réunion they are full of surprises.
