We stayed here as a family of 5, (2 adults, 3 children aged 13, 10 & 4) for 10 days. The hotel is smaller than hotels we usually stay in, but it was great with a personalised feel - upon arrival we were given a tour and explanation of all amenities. We stayed on a half board basis, the breakfast and evening meals in the buffet restaurant were very good and varied each evening. All the kitchen and waiting staff were really friendly, polite and attentive. The daytime entertainment team were engaging and fun, organising water polo, volleyball, aqua aerobics etc. The hotel is directly on a sandy beach, with sun beds to use and free water sports - kayaks, paddle boards and pedallos. In the evening there was live music and dancing each night. We used the gym, it was small but fine for a workout with 4/5 cardio machines and a weights section. We had massages at the spa, which were lovely and overlooking the beach. The hotel reception helped us organise trips around the island, and we took some taxi rides and trips with Rishi - who was so great with the kids and told us lots about the island as we travelled around. There was a most beautiful beach locally was Mont Choisy, truly beautiful 😍 and less than 10 mins in a taxi from the hotel. (Thanks to the staff at the hotel for telling me about this beach). There was a little shop just across the road where we picked up extra snacks and bottles of drinks etc for days out. Overall we all had a great 10 days in Mauritius, and the children are asking if they can come back here next year 🇲🇺 Read less

A little gem on the west coast of Mauritius. We spent 5 nights here and had the best time. The staff really are so friendly and a big shout out to the children’s club. Jerina, made my son feel instantly relaxed and formed a lovely bond with him. She’s a great asset to this hotel. The rooms are nice and cleaned daily. We all thoroughly enjoyed the food and were staying on the half board. We recommend the half board as there’s not loads of restaurants easy within easy reach outside. Staff go above and beyond and as it’s a small hotel it feels more personal. There are some nicer beaches not too far away but for a few days it is fine. We would love to come back in the future and would like to say thank you for a memorable stay. Read less
