Luxury Mauritius Hotel Group Sunlife to Showcase New GLOW Wellness rand at WTM London 2024 

 Sunlife resorts is once again exhibiting at World Travel Market London and will be located on stand N11-200. This year the luxury hotel group will be at WTM showcasing its new wellness brand – GLOW. Sunlife is made up of four luxury hotels in Mauritius: five-star Sugar Beach, five-star Long Beach, four-star La Pirogue, four-star Ambre, and the private island of Ile aux Cerfs. 

GLOW isn’t a mere name. It is an entire universe anchored in natural products crafted in Mauritius, available in the hotels’ spas. GLOW radiates as a symbol of Sunlife’s fresh and purpose-filled take on wellness. Drawing its energy from the sun, it is inspired by the brilliance and vitality that truly define Mauritius and is a nod to travellers who seek a sense of renewal. GLOW represents the epitome of what truly matters to Sunlife, where wellness is a guiding principle. 

Inspired by the rich cultural fabric of Mauritius, Sunlife has taken on a novel approach to blending the abundant greenery and natural elements into one single microcosm of wellness. From lagoons to mountain peaks, endemic plants to the ocean’s salty breezes, Mauritius has always been known for its bountiful nature, and healing powers – a real sanctuary of peace. Honouring this beauty and spirit, Sunlife pays tribute to the richness of the island through the new GLOW wellness brand.

Mauritius, with its rich array of plants offering exceptional benefits, has been a natural inspiration behind the creation of the GLOW skincare line. Traditionally, Mauritians have long used natural remedies like herbal teas and plant mixtures, with these traditions being passed down through generations. Although less common today, the island’s plants still have notable medicinal properties. 

To honour this heritage, Sunlife has teamed up with Indika from Ferney to create the GLOW product range. Combining traditional herbal knowledge with modern science, and collaborating with Axonova for medicinal plant research, Indika offers 100% natural, locally-produced treatments that promote healing and well-being.

Three signature massage oils and scrubs have been meticulously crafted for the GLOW skincare line:

These exclusive formulas centred around medical research, are also packaged in biodegradable and reusable materials. All in all, they truly represent a 360-degree ethical approach to well-being, embracing sustainable agriculture and product recycling. And to top it all, Sunlife guests are given the opportunity to visit the Ferney Nature Reserve in the south of the island where they can spend time observing the plants in their natural habitat and meet the team behind these products.

While the massages mainly address physical tensions, these activities are also an invitation to free one’s mind and introspect. 

“Our goal is to spark our guests’ creativity, helping them step away from their daily routines. This is what we think fosters a profound and lasting transformation within each individual,” explains Béatrice Tsang the Group Guest Experience Designer at Sunlife.

Reshma Dookheea shares: “Sunlife has long stood out for its all-encompassing approach towards the Mauritian life, infusing each step of the experience with its vibrant essence. From one step to the other, a stay at our hotels leaves a lasting impression on guests, turning into a cherished memory for everyone.”

Rejuvenation rituals

GLOW’s new signature rituals are a celebration of Mauritius’s rich way of life, a multi-sensory journey that aims to soothe and revitalise. Each treatment lasts between 120 and 150 minutes,and is designed to lead guests into deep relaxation. The very definition of true well-being.

The “Mauritian Journey” at Long Beach and the “Cosmic Journey” at Sugar Beach are two experiences that were especially crafted to envelop guests in positive energy, aiding them to relieve any form of tension, heighten their awareness, and unveil their inner GLOW.

Long Beach signature treatment: the “Mauritian Journey”

Rooted in Mauritius’s natural remedies, this signature treatment highlights indigenous aromatic plants like moringa oil. Guests start with soothing tabla and Indian flute music, followed by a foot bath with Mauritian salts and Peruvian balm, and a herbal mask from local plants. The experience is framed by calming bell chimes, and guests can relax with tea or juice in the tropical gardens afterward

Sugar Beach signature treatment: the “Cosmic Journey”

Harnessing the sun’s vitality and the power of crystals, this signature treatment harmonizes emotions, mind, and body. It combines essential oils infused with rose quartz, sunstone, and sapphire with relaxing massages and stretches. Set to soothing flute melodies and vocal harmonies, and framed by chime rituals, this treatment offers deep relaxation and rejuvenation through the nervous system.

New intuitive workshops

Sunlife has launched four brand-new GLOW wellness workshops. Spanning 90 minutes each, these workshops will offer guests a chance to get a feel of the Mauritian way of life all while allowing their creativity to shine.

Reshma Dookheea, Cluster Spa Manager at Sunlife, said: “Sunlife has long stood out for its all-encompassing approach towards the Mauritian life, infusing each step of the experience with its vibrant essence. From one step to the other, a stay at our hotels leaves a lasting impression on guests, turning into a cherished memory for everyone.

On the east coast at Long Beach, we get to celebrate the rising of the sun. It’s an inexplicable energy that fills you with vitality and drives you forward. On the west coast, at Sugar Beach, we bask in stunning sunsets, encouraging guests to relax and unwind. GLOW beautifully reflects these two opposing yet complementary energies.”
