LUX Saint Gilles

LUX Saint Gilles is one of the best 5-star hotels on La Réunion. Located on the western coast of this lush volcanic island, it faces a shimmering expanse of turquoise waters, fringed by a stretch of immaculate sand. Tucked away in acres of beautiful tropical gardens, Creole villas sit in the shade of coconut palms and filao trees, just steps from the coral-sheltered lagoon. The white-sand beach is the perfect holiday escape for an idle lounge by the emerald-blue waters.
