The Lux Collective has announced a new initiative catering to the growing trend of female-centric travel, as an increasing number of women embrace solo and group trip experiences.
The “Women Who Travel” package is currently available at select resorts in Mauritius and will provide luxurious treatments with a focus on holistic self-care alongside traditional spa perks such as complimentary sparkling wine and canapés.
At LUX* Grand Gaube and LUX* Belle Mare, guests can enjoy “LUX* ME Indulgences”, comprising four beauty and wellness treatments, all of which are facilitated by female professionals and include a specialised consultation. 
These include a diagnostic hair treatment, a deluxe manicure session, a signature ritual massage and a Dr Levy Celebrity Facial with oxygen-infusion therapy.
LUX* Grand Baie offers an enhanced women-only experience, from its four-storey wellbeing complex, complete with a nine-station hydrothermal circuit of alternating hot and cold treatments, a Hammam and the Indian Ocean’s first rooftop gym and running track.
The package here comprises a hair and scalp treatment, luxury manicure and pedicure and a Dr Levy Switzerland Medi-Luxe® Stem-cell Lifting Facial.
The SALT of Palmar resort on the eastern coast offers a female twist on its “SALT Equilibrium” package.
This adults-only hotel provides a series of five holistic treatments conducted by female therapists.
It begins with Halotherapy, which uses “the healing power of salt vapours”, colour therapy and calming music boost immunity. Next up is a botanical facial, a two-hour body treatment and a mani-pedi.
The Lux Collective’s initiative reflects a broader trend in the travel industry towards more personalised and wellness-focused experiences, particularly for women travellers.
The “Women Who Travel” package costs US$510 (when booked directly through the hotels) and will be available from November 1, 2024 to October 31, 2025 at the LUX* resorts, and from October 1 2024 to October 31 2025 at SALT of Palmar.
