Paradise Cove Boutique Hotel

Mauritius, Indian Ocean

Star rating

The hotel

Nestled in beautiful tropical gardens, Paradise Cove Boutique Hotel is a gorgeous adults-only boutique hotel, offering guests a secluded retreat from the world. Aptly named, it really is paradise here with a pristine white beach and exceptional views of the lagoon and the northern islands from the peninsula. Highly romantic, the resort even offers ‘love nest’ twin sun beds. Also recommended is a visit to Spa Cinq Mondes. Not only does it boast a pool, hammam and flower baths, you can treat yourself to an Indian Ayurvedic massage — sure to banish any lingering cares! At the Paradise Cove, water sports are very much the order of the day, from snorkelling to water-skiing. Come dusk, Stay Bar is the place to sip on tropical cocktails whilst admiring the sunset. There’s live and unplugged music here too but first enjoy dinner at a choice of restaurants. For local dishes, the Dining Room is ideal or experience Asian fusion cuisine at XO. For a real treat, book a table at The Cove — highly romantic, tables for two are set in small huts, right on the beach, beside a coconut grove.

We stayed at Paradise Cove for 11 nights for our honeymoon. It was everything we hoped for. A luxurious, relaxing, unforgettable holiday. Where do I begin? The room was beautiful and spacious (loved the double shower & sink bathroom, perfect for couples), and lovely Devianee made sure it was super clean and we had everything we needed during our stay. The hotel is very well designed. The space is used well, you always have a nice spot where to chill/eat/enjoy the sun. We never had to worry about getting sun beds and it was nice to try out different spots (infinity pool area did require going there a bit earlier, but there was no reserving the seats with towels, etc). The views are beautiful, especially the sunset by the infinity pool. The atmosphere was relaxing and peaceful. We enjoyed the sundowner drinks and evening entertainment. And the food… Just incredible. The buffet was good, lunch options were varied, and it was great that à la carte dinners were included (just make sure to pre-book). We especially enjoyed XO Japanese restaurant. Great vegetarian options everywhere too. The drinks were great - wines were of good quality, tasty cocktails (we enjoyed tasting hotel’s own creations). The piña colada, with local rum, of course, was the best I’ve ever had. We also had some treatments at the SPA, the romantic couple’s package was lush. Little touches for our honeymoon and the candlelit dinner by the pool were highlights too. Something that sets out Paradise Cove apart from other hotels is the eco mindset. It was great to see refillable shower gel/shampoo bottles and zero single use plastic. The local stray animals were also well looked after. Ultimately, it was the staff that made our experience comfortable and enjoyable. Everyone was friendly and professional, but we would especially like to thank Adrian, Yushal, and Tulsi for looking after us. Luxmi who leads the art sessions was wonderful too. The only feedback for improvements would be regarding the Pirogue getaway. This was something we put some of our wedding pool money towards and were very excited about. Whilst the boat ride was fun and the food provided was great, the main island we were taken to for a stroll around and to have the BBQ was covered in rubbish. We recognise it’s an island accessible to the public and waste management is something the country is working on, but considering there are other hotels/tours going there and profiting from it, maybe something could be done for regular clean ups. It did ruin the experience a little bit, just made us sad to see such lovely island with all the rubbish. Overall it was the perfect honeymoon. ❤️ Be prepared for some post holiday blues after though. 😊 Read less

Nothing is too much trouble, you ask and they deliver. Luxurious rooms, the food is out of this world and the cattle market buffet of other hotels is no more. Prepare to be spoilt in every way.

Nothing is too much trouble, you ask and they deliver. Luxurious rooms, the food is out of this world and the cattle market buffet of other hotels is no more. Prepare to be spoilt in every way. Enjoy your own space, even at full capacity the atmosphere is peaceful and you find your own personal space. Staff always happy to chat, laugh and make sure you have a great stay. Look out for Dipac Adrien yogesh rahen to name a few that went the extra mile (excuse spelling). Entertainment every night from local bands and music to fine to, we had a harpist pianist and violinist which were all fab. Please ignore the 1 star review on the website, this person was obviously deluded and just trying to get a refund. No way is everything they said accurate. Expect the best, get the best. We would definitely return 🏖️👌🥰🐟🐠 Read less

The room, the location, the food choices and, of course, the fabulous and friendly staff who were always available to help and make sure you had everything you need. The location is outstanding and I loved the layout which meant that it had loads of atmosphere but was never too busy anywhere we went. Facilities are excellent. We used the spa and the tennis courts and the Peninsula was gorgeous for a yummy lunch with a view. We also went to The Cove for our last dinner, which was so nice. My favourite thing was how calm it felt and how nice everyone was. Thank you - a truly memorable holiday. Read less

Wow, what a fantastic hotel! We had a lovely relaxing time in beautiful surroundings looked after by an extremely friendly and professional team who made our stay so enjoyable❤️ We stayed in room 427 and had a lovely view across the beach to the cove. We took it in turns spending our days in one of the love nests overlooking the inlet, looking out to sea by the plunge pool at the peninsula or near the larger main pool - all were beautiful. We ate at the main dining room which served a mix of À la Carte and buffet meals, The Peninsula and our favourite XO which served Japanese. Read less
