The story
Maré Maré Beach Restaurant sits directly on the shore at Sugar Beach Resort & Spa in Wolmar, Flic en Flac — one of the most sheltered stretches of coastline on Mauritius's west coast. The setting alone draws attention: open-air tables, the Indian Ocean close enough to hear, and the kind of light that makes an evening meal feel unhurried.
The kitchen works within a Mediterranean register, a cuisine well suited to the island's warm climate and abundance of fresh produce. That commitment to quality at the table extends to the cellar: in 2025, Wine Spectator granted Maré Maré its Award of Excellence, a recognition that reflects the care put into building and presenting the wine programme. For guests who take their pairing seriously, this is a meaningful signal.
The restaurant covers the full arc of the day — breakfast, lunch, and dinner — with outdoor seating that makes the most of the beachfront position at every hour. Live entertainment, cocktails, and a bar round out the evenings, while the capacity for private parties and events means the space adapts to more than just à la carte dining. Valet parking and table service add a layer of ease that suits the resort context without feeling stiff.
For anyone staying at Sugar Beach or visiting Flic en Flac, Maré Maré offers a straightforward proposition: Mediterranean food and a well-regarded wine list, with the Mauritian coastline as the backdrop.
