LUX Grand Gaube, the retro-chic tropical resort masterpiece of The Lux Collective designed by British designer Kelly Hoppen and Mauritian architect Jean-François Adam, has won yet another global accolade. Located on the northern coast of Mauritius, LUX* Grand Gaube has been named “The Most Instagrammable Hotel in the World” for 2023 by readers of Luxury Travel Advisor.

This year nearly 200 hotels nominated themselves for the competition, from which Luxury Travel Advisor editorial team selected 64 outstanding hotels for inclusion. Each region was divided into four brackets (“Asia, Indian Ocean and South Pacific”; “Europe, Middle East and Africa”; “Latin America and Caribbean” and “North America”) and randomly paired against one another. In total, six intense rounds of voting were required to crown the champion.

LUX* Grand Gaube won the Asia, Indian Ocean, and South Pacific Regional Title before entering the semi-finals. In the grand final round, LUX* Grand Gaube won with a “score” of 32, 637 votes to 17, 159 votes, championing with almost two-thirds of the overall votes.

“The readers of Luxury Travel Advisor have spoken and LUX* Grand Gaube—represented by its natural-yet-retro-chic lobby—has come out on top,” said Matt Turner, Editor, Luxury Travel Advisor. “We hope to have inspired some of our readers and shed light on just a few of the many impressive (and Instagrammable) hotels worldwide through the competition. We thank our community and all the hotels for their participation and offer our congratulations to LUX* Grand Gaube on its victory.”
