This resort exceeds all expectations. The service is immaculate. We especially enjoyed our lunches and dinners at coconut. A special thanks to Daavian, Yohan, Suman and Alexandre for making our experience so memorable:) We also had a couple of fantastic dinners at the buffet, where we got amazing service from a 25 year old Nepalese guy. (Sadly do not remember his name). Even though the hotel markets towards the sister hotel being open to La Pirouge residents, we did in fact not feel welcome. We booked a dinner at the buffet in Sugar Beach, but were completely outcasted. We were placed at the table furthest away from the main area, and were only visited once by the waiters. At the end we had 14 finished plates of food at our table that were not picked up until after we left. (We were a group of nine people). However the service at La Pirouge was as said amazing. We had some evenings at Magenta aswell, which also did not disappoint. Very good food and service. 10/10. Definitely recommend! Read less

As a couple we have stayed for two weeks in the lovely La Piroque at Flic and Flac, Mauritius. We have enjoyed the tranquility and cleanliness of one of the oldest and most beautiful resorts on Mauritius. The idyllic surroundings are well being taken care of and we have enjoyed the view from our comfortable ‘garden house’. The staff upholds a decent level of service, which is highly appreciated. Explicitly Mw Kamla supported our breakfast. The team of Sabrina an Ravin took personal efforts to increase the holiday experience of each diner at La Piroque. For a close out of every day we have been surprised by the cocktails of Mimi and the team of the Bar at Médina in the evening. A suggestion is include music adressing not only aged couples, but younger couples too. Thank you all for a great holiday Read less
