Travel can seem a little complicated at the moment. But really it just requires some extra planning. Be sure to check your country's regulations. Here's the status in our destinations:

Mauritius

Great news! Mauritius is fully open! We compiled the most frequently asked questions below. We also invite you to consult the official Mauritius Tourism Promotion Authority website for the latest updates and more detailed information: https://mauritiusnow.com

La Reunion

Local friends, please simply follow the national's protocol: social distancing, wear your mask when you move around the resort, sanitize your hands and follow the signs. Travellers from abroad will need to present a negative PCR test taken less than 72h prior to departure. They must also be fully vaccinated or present an overriding reason.

China

Over in China, the doors to our resorts and retreats are open to domestic travellers only, as borders remain closed for now. A health QR code is required upon check-in. Local travellers from high and middle-risk areas should check in with their regional's regulations.

Maldives

The Maldives' one island=one resort has made it an alluring destination since day 1. You must present a negative PCR test taken less than 96h prior to the time of departure from the first embarkation point en route to the Maldives. This test applies to travellers of all ages, except infants 0-12 months. You must also fill out an online Traveller Health Declaration (https://imuga.immigration.gov.mv/) within 24h of your departure to and from the Maldives. You must also fill out the Resort Health Declaration form sent by our reservations team and email it back to stay@luxmaldivesresort.com 48h prior to your arrival.

For extra precaution, at LUX* South Ari Atoll, we require a PCR test on arrival at our seaplane lounge (free of charge) for travellers age 1 and upward, both vaccinated and unvaccinated. If you are coming from another resort, island or boat, you must present a negative PCR test taken within 24h of your arrival. You can coordinate the PCR testing with the property you were at before. If you are unvaccinated and traveling from another resort, island or boat, we encourage you to arrive before noon in order to receive the test results before 6pm, as you will be asked to stay in your villa until the negative PCR test results arrive. You can expect to receive the results within 6-12h. Vaccinated travelers - be sure to have your vaccination card on hand, as it will be requested at check-in.

Arrivals from India, Brazil, Russia, Ukraine, South Africa, Namibia, Lesotho, Mozambique, Botswana, Eswatini and Zimbabwe: If you are not fully vaccinated, you will be required to stay in your villa until the negative PCR test results arrive. You can expect to receive the results within 6-12h. Vaccinated travelers - be sure to have your vaccination card on hand, as it will be requested at check-in.

COVID-19 insurance: The Maldives offers a COVID-19 insurance which travellers can purchase prior to their arrival. It covers medical expenses, isolation and transportation costs.
