An Exceptional Stay at Tamassa Resort, Bel Ombre – 10/10! I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Tamassa Resort, Bel Ombre. The service was excellent from beginning to end, and I truly enjoyed every moment of my experience. I would especially like to thank Celina at Reception for her warm welcome, guidance and assistance throughout my stay. A special thank you also goes to Kaajal, who takes care of the beach towels, for her kindness and lovely service. My sincere appreciation goes to the entire team for making my stay so enjoyable. The room was absolutely fantastic, housekeeping was excellent, and everything was perfectly clean and well maintained. The food was delicious, and I particularly loved the dessert selection at the buffet! Everything exceeded my expectations. I am extremely happy with my experience at this hotel. I am already looking forward to returning in January with my family. For me, Tamassa Resort truly deserves a 10/10 and every bit of its 5-star reputation! Thank you to the entire team for making my stay so memorable. Keep up the amazing work! Read less

A big thank you to the entire team at Tamassa Resort! ❤️ This was our very first time visiting Tamassa, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would especially like to thank the reception team for the warm welcome (apologies, we didn’t manage to catch everyone’s names), the F&B team, especially Chloé, Kenny, Aurelina and Owen, as well as the amazing animation team for making our Saturday so much fun! A special mention to Aurelina for her outstanding service, kindness and attentiveness. Thank you for going the extra mile and making us feel so welcome. Your hospitality truly made a difference in our experience! From the excellent service and hospitality to the entertainment and, of course, the foam party, everything was absolutely wonderful. We had such a great time! As Mauritians, it means a lot to us to feel welcomed, valued and well taken care of when visiting our own local hotels. Experiencing such genuine hospitality made our visit even more special. Thank you to every single member of the team, including the ambassadors, for making our first experience at Tamassa so memorable. We came as guests, but left with beautiful memories and the desire to come back again. Keep up the amazing work! ❤️🇲🇺 Read less
