The hotel

Those torn between ‘contemporary chic’ and ‘utterly authentic’ needn’t choose – after a radical revamp, Tropical Attitude promises both. All bold geometric design and luxe natural touches, this adults-only retreat gives grownups that boutique hotel feel and a genuine Mauritian experience. It starts with its location – facing a turquoise lagoon, just a free shuttle ride from the beautiful beaches at Ile aux Cerfs, it’s near the traditional fishing village of Trou d’Eau Douce. And it continues with its attitude – with real Mauritius found everywhere from its spa treatments to its experiences, including cookery lessons, a weekly ‘Made in Mauritius’ market, and home-cooked dinners at local families’ homes. Dining at Tropical Attitude is equally authentic, whether you’re at its intimate Kot Nou restaurant (which seats just 20 guests), tucking into Mauritian street food from TABA-j, or taking one of its picnic baskets over to Ile aux Cerfs. Book into one of the newer villas to enjoy a private pool all to yourselves, perfect for a special occasion.

We spent an unforgettable day at Tropical Attitude Hotel for a bachelorette party with Cindy Lobin, and everything was absolutely perfect! The day was sunny with clear blue skies, and the beach was simply stunning – the entire vibe was tropical bliss. From the moment we arrived, we were treated with warmth and care. The cocktails were delicious – refreshing, creative, and beautifully presented. The food was outstanding, with generous portions and flavors that left us completely satisfied. Throughout the day, we were so well served by the amazing team. A special thank you to Rayaan, our lunch server, who was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. He truly added a special touch to our day. We also want to give a heartfelt shoutout to Selven at the reception. He was absolutely wonderful during tea time – so gentle, attentive, and genuinely caring. His service made us feel so welcome and at home.
