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.

However, on our last night, at around 4:20 a.m., someone knocked loudly on our door. Before that, cats and dogs had been making loud noises near our room for several hours. The incident frightened us, and we felt quite unsafe.
Apart from this incident, our stay was perfect. We truly enjoyed our time at the resort

5* review for the exceptional dining experience here.
Thank you to Nitish for his high quality service, making us feel valued as guests and going above and beyond to make our stay special. Chef Arvin's food was amazing and exceeded expectations. Cocktails were also very good.
The rooms were comfortable and clean, there were quiet areas throughout the resort for relaxing. Note that the beach is man-made.
We were under the impression from the website that in the "dine around" experience we could eat at other hotels within the chain (as many resorts allow). However, on asking with guest experience, we were informed this could only be at the buffet and had to be pre-approved. We were disappointed with how management dealt with our query, making us feel like we were asking for something unreasonable; despite the dine around experience being advertised on the website as a "choice of restaurant at our hotels". We can see the wording on the website has since been changed.

We have just returned from an amazing 15 night stay at this hotel. Great facilities for couples or family with daily activities and great evening entertainment every night. Our room was very nice and kept exceptionally clean during our stay. The restaurants offer a different dining experience and the standard of food was very high. The buffet restaurant was also excellent with a different theme every night so it doesn't get repetitive. All the staff are amazing but the following went that extra mile to make our stay even more special. Rishi at the Indian restaurant, Arvind who oversaw the main bar, Danvir and Suraj who brought us endless drinks/cocktails on the beach, such great service. Manav and Ajay who served in the main bar and Alyssa who was the funniest lovely lady who always took time out to come and talk to us. Gregory and all the team at Guest Services who also went that extra mile and made sure our stay was a good one.

The only think I would mentioned for those that love to snorkel is that the water is a little murky off the beach and there weren’t many fish. Would suggest a snorkelling trip which we did and it didn’t disappoint.
