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.

Zilwa Attitude is always our go-to hotel when we need a break. The rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable, and the views are simply soothing; greenery, sand and the ocea. It’s the kind of view that instantly slows you down and makes you breathe a little easier. It’s an excellent hotel for families with children. The kids’ club have a well planned activity schedule, the indoor air-conditioned boat area in the kids club is a great idea when it gets too hot and the covered kids’ pool is perfect since the little ones spend most of their day there. The food areas are well maintained and clean, which we really appreciate. There’s a nice variety every day, with salads, grilled options and local dishes. We also love the snack spot that opens between meals with pancakes, local cakes, tea and coffee. Simple, well organised and very convenient. The staff are always welcoming, helpful, and smiling, especially the long-standing team who make us feel truly at home. A special mention for the spa; the 90min massage is absolutely worth choosing and truly completes the relaxation experience. We highly recommend Zilwa Attitude for families. We always feel spoiled there. Thank you Zilwa Team. We love you! Read less

Visited Zilwa on an all Inclusive package for 2 nights. Warm welcome, friendly staff, food average, great drinks, limited activities. I did not quite like the idea of getting your own drinks/ snacks at the counter, minibar available but you have to go get your own. Our room was quite far so walking with drinks to your room was not ideal. I did not quite understand this concept. Did 2 water sports, was fun considering I’m not a swimmer. Special thanks to Aniket at the bar, who did an amazing job my creating amazing drinks for me ☺️ night entertainment can be better Read less
