We had a lovely stay at Tamassa. The food at Playa was excellent, and the service from Deeraj and Danvish at the restaurant was truly top-notch. At the bar, Arun and Vishesh also delivered great quality service and were always friendly and attentive.
The only downsides were that most activities were quite far from our room, and the superior room felt a bit small for its category. Overall, though, the warmth of the staff and the food experience made our stay very enjoyable.

During our stay at Tamassa in Mauritius we had the good chance of having a wonderful and caring team which assisted us and help us throughout our stay.Well done to the management of that hotel as they left no stone unturned when it come to hospitality.
The welcome, the prompt and quick service, the food at the buffet, the bar service and our room, all exceptional.This hotel needs an upgrade from 4 star to 5 star for sure.
We would like to specially give a special thank to Suhail our buggy driver who was exceptional and his smile as first encounter bring up the emotion of what you are expecting of that hotel.Well done to put Suhail as buggy driver he brings the first glimpse of what a client expect.Happiness.
We also have a good thought for Rashita on the front guest who accompanied and greeted us to our room.
Dip on the restaurant have given us a good service also.
Mathieu on security helped my mother with an issue.
Well done team.

Everybody gonna say ''Tamassa Again''....why don't you visit other hotels?
The simple and straight forward answer to all of you dear travellers, is that in Mauritius,Tamassa is my personal best resort to spend wonderful times with the family.
There are many resorts in Mauritius but no other resorts like Tamassa.
Tamassa has grown to such heights that i personally don't see any resorts reaching that level.
Why do i always chose Tamassa?It is the question that travellers do ask.
Tamassa like i always said is my second ''HOME''. The family and i are always satisfied with the hospitality and services provided to us during our vacation. We have been always provided with the best services during our stay and i am 100% sure that these services are not always provided to us only but to all of you residing at Tamassa.Whatever is being needed to organise which was not on the agenda or any unforeseen situations, these guys there... i mean the staffs in whatever departments they are always on the front foot to make what is needed to make anything possible to realise our wish as closest as possible to reality.
We are always comfortable in our rooms as usual...We are used to the beachfront rooms which we usually asked for. What i can tell you guys is to ask for the beach front rooms when you visit Tamassa as you will see a wonderful view on the ocean and the sandy beaches as well as you will admire the magic of the sun setting out in the crystal waters of the lagoon.
One of the most magical moment i spent this time was to explore the underwater world. I did some snorkelling in the lagoon which was tremendous. The lagoon at the resort was so beautifully cleaned and maintained that i could see many aquatic creatures. This is very rarely seen in places where there are resorts.
The foods are always on another level...the culinary world of Tamassa is always like visiting different cultures in one plate.The Chefs are fabulous.As always themed and international buffets are there to make you travel the world. Keep it up Chefs!
Some people at Tamassa who make our stay memorable and eager to be back soon is Mr Nishad first of all. He is the main guy out there who makes sure everything happens for the best during your stay.There is the reception team led by Mr Kevin who are doing great jobs in deploying the staffs to assist the residents in what so ever ways.The restaurant team like Ms Gulpreet and Mr Argish who are doing very well in their tasks to serve people without showing fatigue and any sign of lack of motivation. Hats Off to such people who are dedicated to their works and commitments towards their clients.
I WILL SURELY BE BACK AT TAMASSA
Thank you for taking some of your precious time to read my review. Trust me this will help you my dear travellers.
