Preskil Island Resort

I wanted to take a moment to extend my heartfelt thanks for the truly wonderful stay I had at Preskil Island Resort. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed, and that hospitality continued throughout my entire visit. It’s rare these days to find such a perfect blend of comfort, professionalism, and genuine care, but your team delivered on every front. My relatives and I felt pampered all throughout the stay. The room was immaculate, beautifully appointed, and provided a peaceful retreat to us. The room meant for the couple about to get married was beautifully decorated by Rakesh's team. I also want to highlight the nice setup/décor made at Pavilion C for all our meal times. Mackline’s team did a great job!. Each experience contributed to the sense that I was being well looked after, and it made my stay all the more enjoyable. The food was great and it suited the taste of everyone. Good job chefs! Preskil is the place to be with its spectacular views of the islands of the South-East of Mauritius! Looking forward to another great stay! Great job everyone! Read less

We stayed at this hotel after a wonderful experience at the 4-star Beachcomber Hotel, and unfortunately, the difference in quality was quite stark and disappointing. To start on a positive note: the arrival and welcome were very pleasant, and the introduction to the hotel was well-handled. Our room was beautifully decorated and very clean, which we really appreciated. However, things quickly went downhill from there. The service in the restaurants was poor. Staff struggled with English and often came across as unfriendly. The concierge was frequently absent and not welcoming when present. Tables were left dirty, and basic items like cutlery were often missing. At the Mosaic restaurant, our drinks order was completely forgotten. The food itself was just okay—certainly not on par with what we've had at similar-rated hotels in Mauritius. The beach, with much of the sand washed away and the area in need of some care. The pool was not all clean and had an emplty plastic bottle a n crisp bag flowting inside. While the location is convenient—especially being close to the airport—this hotel simply does not meet the standards of a 4-star property. Our stay was acceptable, but we expected much better based on our previous experience. Read less

We were extremely privileged to stay at the Preskil Resort and had the most marvellous holiday. We will definitely without hesitation book another holiday and return to this resort. It is one of the finest establishments that we have ever stayed in. We would be overjoyed to bask in the luxurious comfort and hospitality of the such accommodating, diligent and compassionate team who treat their guests with such grace and care for a second time. We had previously been on holiday at the Solana Beach Resort but were offered an upgrade. Though we had a wonderful holiday within the Solana and were sad to leave, we were sent to Preskil and we relished the opportunity to visit another side of Mauritius and were excited to visit another resort. We have been so very lucky to have had the opportunity to have two holidays within one. We are eternally appreciative to both the Solana Beach Resort and to the Preskil Resort for this wonderful opportunity. The Preskil resort itself is utterly exquisite. From our initial arrival and meeting the wonderful team at Reception we were treated with such kindness minutes into our holiday. Every person we met was so polite, attentive and had such outgoing personalities. We were greeted initially by Juliana and Khushi, they were so bright, friendly and caring. They reassured us that our room would not take long to be ready. I received a WhatsApp message within minutes and we were showed to our room after we were given a short tour of the hotel grounds. The resort has many different rooms set in different locations but all within a short distance of the main buildings. Our room was on the ground floor and through the balcony door we looked directly onto the sea. The view was utterly breathtaking and so calming, an absolute beautiful site to behold. It was just luxurious. The room had ample space and more than sufficient storage for our clothes and suitcases. The bed was large and when we did sleep in it on the first night, we found it extremely comfortable. The large walk in shower was very powerful and we had an additional large bath tub which was an excellent addition to our room so we could enjoy a soak should we want to. The Housekeeping team worked exceptionally hard through our nine day stay and cleaned our room to the highest standard daily. We were offered housekeeping in the evening as well as in the morning, an added touch of luxury should we require it. The toiletries were constantly refreshed on a daily basis, we had facial tissues and toilet paper, bars of soap, shampoo, conditioner and handwash refilled each day. Our towels and beach towels were always changed even if we didn't use them. The refreshment tray by the kettle was always replenished if we wished to have hot drinks and sealed glass bottled water was replaced constantly without us needing to ask. It was put in the fridge for us too so we appreciated it being cold and refreshing to drink. Our room exceeded our expectations. We already from initially viewing our bedroom felt the upgrade we had received was exquisite. We also had bath robes and slippers, another added touch of extravagance. The grounds of the resort are so well maintained and everywhere you walk outside is immaculately clean. The outside areas of the bar areas are sparkling with chairs and tables showing no signs of age and wear. The pool is pristine and cleaned daily. There are absolutely no traces of litter. The Gardeners and maintenance team look after the grounds to such an exacting standard and high regard, you can clearly see the effort put into the upkeep of the resort. They work around the clock keeping everything so neat and tidy. Each person who was responsible for the outside areas of the resort carrying out duties such as sweeping leaves, combing the sand, straightening sun beds and even maintenance team members emptying the dustbins in the mornings and evening acknowledged us, smiled and greeted us with such politeness. We didn't encounter any employees who were not happy in their work. It was so nice and reassuring to see people content in this working environment. It is clear that this resort glows. These individuals radiate such pride and are extremely passionate about the service they deliver. When we had drinks in the bar we were always met by such diligent and outgoing waiters and waitress staff. Every person who served us in the Medley Bar was very friendly and possessed such a warm hospitable attitude. The Entertainment facilities we had the pleasure to experience were outstanding. Daily activities, all of which were complimentary and free were excellent. We had trips out on a glass bottomed boat to see marine fish. We went out on a boat to deeper sea water to go snorkeling which was a wonderful hour or so. We also rented a pedalo boat and at our leisure spent a lot of time out on the sea which was great. We didn't have time to use the kayaks and canoes but again, another free activity available. All of these options are offered each day with no charge so if you find time on your hands in between soaking up the beautiful sunshine this resort offers these extra touches which are well worth your time. We recommend if you do stay in this resort to book a day trip on a Catamaran boat. The reception team organised this for us. For what it cost, the experience was absolutely incredible and it is definitely a must. We had such a magnificent day! In the evenings the entertainment available within the resort was very extravagant and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The quality and content of the show in the evening after we had eaten was fabulous. Our three favourite evenings were the Indian themed dancers, the Mauritiun Sega dancers and the four piece band who played classical guitar. All of these displays were precise, entertaining to watch and very moving. The amount of detail put into the choreography of the dancers and the efforts made from the band was highly evident. These are highly talented and professional people who deliver a superb performance. An absolute pleasure to watch. The amount of care I received from the resort at meal times was immeasurable and I am forever in their debt. As someone who has severe food allergies I can feel very apprehensive about eating outside of the comfort of my own home. In Preskil my every need was catered for, I was made to feel at complete ease and I was overwhelmed by the efforts put into the preparation and presentation of my meals each day. Though we were half board and we had the opportunity to eat in the Rendezvous Restaurant, we had the majority of our meals served to us in Mosaic Restaurant. The exceptional level of care and consideration I was given blew me away. I thank you and appreciate you all for your grace and kindness. The buffet food available within Rendezvous Restaurant was always so plentiful, of excellent quality and cooked to perfection. Food is constantly refreshed and replenished in the morning at breakfast and in the evening at supper. There are chefs working constantly to prepare and serve delicious meals throughout the day. To have chefs in front of you who cook dishes to order in the morning and evening shows the highest level of standard and what you receive is freshly made by your own eyes. This added level of luxury is another layer of exceptional service delivered within Preskil Resort. Marchiano. You are an utter asset to this resort and are such a highly dedicated chef.
