The hotel

Not just a hotel, Zilwa Attitude is more of an experience, embracing the life of the islanders. With a relaxed village feel, it is packed with authentic Mauritian experiences so you’ll truly feel like one of the natives after a week or two here. In a beautiful location, overlooking endless stretches of sandy beach and with stunning views of no less than five islands, it is a slice of heaven. Just a few minutes away by boat, or a short paddle, is Grand Zil where you can while away a few hours on a lounger and perhaps tuck in to a barbecue lunch — or enjoy a rejuvenating massage on the smaller Ti Zil. Rooms are inspired from traditional seaside bungalows and are contemporary in design but rustic too with rough white-washed walls and brushed cement floors. Embracing bright colours, there's a choice of room types, as well as family rooms, apartments and suites by the sea. Book a treatment at the world-class spa and take some time to chill on a day bed in the relaxation garden whilst listening to the twitter of birdsong. As you kick back, the little ones will be kept happy at the kids' club, with a fun garden, a games room and a large boat to explore and escape the sun ! There are seven restaurants at Zilwa, offering cuisines from European to Creole, Indian and Asian, and the All Inclusive dine-around experience means you can discover wonderful varied meals each day of your stay.

Our family recently spent five nights at Zilwa Attitude with our 1-year-old daughter, and it was without a doubt one of the most memorable parts of our Mauritius holiday. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the resort. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and impeccably maintained, while the facilities offered something for everyone. We particularly loved the welcoming family-friendly atmosphere, the excellent children's amenities, the wide variety of delicious food options, and the range of activities available both on and off the water. The resort strikes the perfect balance between relaxation and entertainment, making it easy to enjoy every moment of our stay. What truly set Zilwa Attitude apart, however, was the exceptional level of service. Every member of staff we encountered was warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making guests feel welcome. The hospitality throughout the resort was outstanding and contributed greatly to the overall experience. We would especially like to acknowledge Nitish, the Restaurant Manager, who played a significant role in making our stay so enjoyable. Travelling with a 1-year-old comes with its own challenges, but Nitish consistently went above and beyond to ensure our family was comfortable and well looked after. He regularly checked in on us, accommodated our daughter's needs without hesitation, and always made us feel valued and cared for. His kindness, attentiveness, and willingness to help never went unnoticed, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. Nitish embodies the genuine warmth and hospitality that Mauritius is known for. His dedication and personal approach elevated our experience and helped create memories that we will cherish for years to come. We leave with wonderful memories and would not hesitate to recommend Zilwa Attitude to families, couples, and anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable stay in Mauritius. Thank you to the entire team for making our holiday so special, and a heartfelt thank you to Nitish for the care and attention that made such a difference to our family. Read less

We recently spent 5 nights at Zilwa Attitude as a family with our 1-year-old daughter, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip to Mauritius. The resort itself is fantastic. The rooms were comfortable, clean and well maintained, the facilities were modern, and there was always something to do. We particularly loved the family-friendly atmosphere, the kids' facilities, the variety and quality of the buffet, and the water activities available around the resort. Everything was thoughtfully designed and made it easy to relax and enjoy our holiday. What truly made our stay exceptional, however, was the people. Every staff member we interacted with was warm, friendly, and genuinely committed to ensuring guests had a great experience. The level of hospitality throughout the resort was outstanding. A very special mention goes to Nitish, the Restaurant Manager. He went above and beyond for our family throughout our stay and made a real difference to our experience. Travelling with a 1-year-old can be unpredictable, but Nitish was always available, incredibly thoughtful, and consistently checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. He kindly arranged food for us and our daughter whenever required and always made us feel cared for and valued. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble for him. His professionalism, kindness, and genuine desire to help stood out from day one. Nitish is a true asset to Zilwa Attitude and represents the very best of Mauritian hospitality. It is team members like him who turn a great holiday into a memorable one. We would highly recommend Zilwa Attitude to couples, families, and anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in Mauritius. Thank you to the entire team for making our holiday so special, and a heartfelt thank you to Nitish for helping create memories that our family will cherish for years to come. Read less
