Jacaranda FMโs Philicity Reeken recently returned from a sun-drenched adventure in Mauritius.
Known for co-hosting the popular โBreakfast with Martin Besterโ show, Philicityโs trip reaffirmed why Mauritius remains a top pick for South African travellers.
PHILICITY TAKES MAURITIUS
From the moment she landed, Philicity was captivated. โMauritius is stunning all year round,โ she says.
โItโs close to home, affordable, and offers so much variety. Whether youโre after relaxation, adventure, family fun, or romance, this island has it all.โ
Mauritiusโs appeal to South Africans is clear. Visa-free travel, direct flights, and a broad range of accommodation options make it incredibly accessible.
Philicity stayed at Club Med La Plantation dโAlbion, a resort that impressed her with its flexibility, according toย A Slice Of Naija.
โThereโs something for everyone. You can do as little or as much as you want. Whether youโre solo, with kids, or a group, it caters perfectly,โ she explains.
THINGS TO DO IN MAURITIUS
Food lovers will feel right at home here. Philicity, a confessed foodie, raved about the resortโs culinary delights.
โThe food was out of this world. Every dish suited a different mood or craving. I was delighted, not surprised.โ

One standout experience was a submarine adventure that gave her a fresh perspective on the ocean. โIf youโve ever dreamed of being a mermaid, this is it.
A must-do for anyone who loves the sea,โ she enthuses.
PRODUCTIVE HOLIDAY
Despite her early-morning radio schedule, Philicity kept herย routineย even on holiday. โIโm up at sparrowโs every day โ even earlier on vacation!โ she laughs.
โThat gave me the chance to see the island wake up. Those early mornings were some of the most beautiful moments.โ
Looking ahead, Philicityโs travel wishlist is growing. โLocally, I want to visit Sutherland in winter to see the Southern African Large Telescope.
Internationally, Namibia, Sri Lanka, Chile, and the Trans-Siberian Railway are calling my name. Itโs a long list!โ

Philicityโs journey highlights why Mauritius continues to charm South African travellers. Itโs not just a beautiful destination but an adaptable and inspiring place for all kinds of holidaymakers.
