The hotel lies on a 25 hectare private estate known as Balaclava along Turtle Bay (between Port Louis and Grand Baie) on the north-west coast, which is the sunniest region of Mauritius. The distance to the airport is 60 km (45 min), to Port Louis 12 km (15 min) and Grand Baie 12 km (15 min).

New trunk roads provide easy access to the Maritim Hotel. The 'Balaclava' Estate is a historical estate dating back to the 18th century, with a fascinating natural scenery from Mauritius. On the northern border flows Rivière Citron, over dams and cascades into a shallow lagoon flanked by lush tropical vegetation of Mauritius. Mysterious ruins, remain to be explored as witnesses of the colonial times. Walkways and footpaths allow for long walks through the luxuriant garden of the estate with its magnificent views over the most picturesque mountain range in Mauritius. 'Turtle Bay' is the first Marine National Park in Mauritius with well preserved underwater life. There are excellent snorkeling grounds right off the beach.
