The islands of the Indian Ocean--Mozambique, Mauritius, Madagascar, the Seychelles, Tanzania, Kenya and the Maldives--offer a rare blend of natural beauty, cultural richness and refined escape. From pristine beaches and vibrant coral reefs to lush forests and unique wildlife, each destination reveals its own distinct character and sense of paradise. Hospitality across these islands is warm and genuine, shaped by deep respect for community, culture and the natural world.
This book highlights properties that embody responsible luxury, showcasing resorts and villas committed to conservation, community upliftment and sustainable design. Our collaboration with Ardmore enriches this edition with artistry inspired by Africa's flora, fauna and folklore, while our partnership with Steadfast Africa ensures travellers have access to exceptional, meaningful journeys throughout the region.
More than a collection of beautiful places, this book is a call to travel consciously and to help protect the fragile ecologies and vibrant cultures that make these islands extraordinary. As a reader, you are also invited to join the Trips to Earth Luxury Traveller Club, gaining access to exclusive benefits and personalised travel planning as you explore the remarkable destinations featured in Indian Ocean Islands' Best Stays.
