Everything was so delicious and the Mauritian Rum arangé was a treat. So many varieties of Rums available. We are hoping to go to another soirée at Tamassa Hotel in the near future. Read less

A wonderful stay. The rooms were clean and fresh as was the site. With three pools, an amazing spa complex (make sure you check it out!) and a tropical beach you could want for no more. Along with lovely, discreet but friendly staff on an island that respects visitors without ripping them off it makes for a fabulous holiday. Upgrade to a superior room allowing you to eat in the Al a carte beach restaurant at no extra cost- well worth the upgrade and the food is amazing although the buffet food in the main restaurant is great too. Just be aware that the hotel is based on the quieter south coast so not much in the immediate vicinity but car hire and car and driver is very reasonably priced. The roads are excellent and relatively quiet if you avoid central St Louis so not an issue Read less
