With World Leisure Holidays still able to offer packages to Mauritius for the Easter holidays (set departures on the 28 or 29 March), the hardest part about spending the Easter holidays on the island is choosing which of these seven resorts to spend seven nights, starting from as little as R12,650 pps.
