I stayed at Ocean V for 3 nights and my visit can only be described as great! I arrived the first day around 7 pm (it was about 2 hours from the airport with traffic) but was greeted by a lovely lady who explained to me all necessary information and lead me to my room. The room itself was very spacious! I was very pleasantly surprised! And the view!!! OMG the view was fantastic. The view only got better when you got to the rooftop where the restaurant, pool and bar were. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful especially the hotel manager Mr. Manav who organized an entire day of sightseeing for me all with driver and everything. He was extremely hospitable and even offered me a soothing drink when my stomach was feeling a bit upset. Highly recommended hotel and I will definitely be coming back to stay there towards the end of this year. So much to see and do and country is just gorgeous!

Everyone is hospitable, kind, and helpful, from the chef and the cleaner to the owner. The food in the restaurant is top-notch and quite affordable. Once, I didn’t like my meal, and they refused to charge me for it, which is something that rarely happens in Europe. Essentially, Europe should learn the principles of hospitality from the people of Mauritius. A warm recommendation for Le Pole! P. S. Chef from Kongo is making best cocktails! Great guy

  • Coral Azur Beach Resort Mont Choisy

    Mont Choisy
    From $295.97 per night
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.4
    Very Good - What previous guests thought, 962 reviews
    I firstly want to express gratitude for the amazing people of Coral Azur who made my birthday week the best one I have ever had. From the moment we walked in we were welcomed by Vincent and P, with a cocktail drink and in no time we were taken to our room. The best room in the Resort like Vincent said, and he didnt lie. The views?! Nothing short of amazing. On the first night of our arrival you would expect us to rest from our flight and settle in but no we were whisked away by a night of fun Karaoke with Joana, one of my favourite people there-if you meet her you will see why. I want to tell you all about our exprecince because everyday was unique and the kindness, humility, patience and thoughtfulness of everyone at Coral Azur, but I will try to keep it short. If you love fitness, there's yoga and aqua activities in the pool every morning after breakfast. Every night, there is some fun activities after dinner too, besides karaoke you will enjoy game nights, disco night (with a dj), or a cocktail night. Breakfast time you will meet all the lovely chefs that will tend to your every need if you love food like my partner and I. And while you are sitting there enjoying your meal, you might end up being serenaded by Jennifer Lopez of Mauritius, you are lucky if its your birthday because you get to be serenaded everyday. On the resort there is free paddle boating and kayaking, also a glass boat cruise to see the coral reef. All of the above come standard to your visit but i want to also mention the extra mile the staff went for this memorable vacation: They helped my partner organise a romantic evening, you know rose petals champagne and all. They baked a special birthday cake which I thought i would just get a slice with one candle on it but no, I absolutely loved it. The mama from housekeeping and laundry who ironed our clothes even if it was late so we can be ready for our dinner, thank you so much.

    We had a fabulous stay at Zilwa! What a gorgeous resort! The entire staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, from the warm welcome we received at check in to the wait staff at each of the restaurants. Even the instructor for our morning aqua gym class was great - very enthusiastic! The food at each of the restaurants was excellent; we especially enjoyed the Thai restaurant, Manao, and had a delicious Indian meal at Tadka. We also had fun at the island for the BBQ lunch. The grounds are beautiful and our view from our ocean front room was stunning. We saw several lovely sunsets during our stay too. I celebrated my birthday while I was at Zilwa and the staff made my day very special by decorating our bed and offering dessert with my birthday dinner. The evening entertainment was terrific. I loved the dancers! Zilwa also has many fun activities and we were able to go out kayaking and snorkeling. Although I also wanted to go scuba diving I did not have the opportunity during this stay. I highly recommend Zilwa Attitude and hope to return to this beautiful resort one day.

    Mauritius is called by its locals as paradise island i mean everyone says amazing things about the country they originate from however the people of mauritius truly mean it when they say it, its a beautiful colourful, green and tropical country with endless miles of beaches always a stone throw away. where ever you go you see beautiful coconut trees, palm trees and mango trees and some stunning birds, colourful dragon flies and bats the nature alone is so breathtaking. the food, the locals, the price point of excursions, the weather and the beaches were literally out of this world. its a country that i would genuinely consider going again and again infact i actually cant wait to step back into mauritous and forget my blues, if your a avid diver or snorkler then mauritius is a must, we did so much in the space of 9 days from paragliding, snorking with turtles, undersea water walking, diving, water sking, off road riding using ATVs/quad bikes, watched horse racing, zip lining, shopping in there vibrant colourful markets, visiting historical sites that were rich with history and different cultures, eating out local street food and world class cuisines for very little money. super affordable and what a beautiful hidden gem of a country. family and myself were completely blown away by it to the point we are rethinking ever going back to places like dubai over beautiful tropical natural countries like mauritius. we also had a friendly parrot that would visit us daily and gladly sit amongst us without being scared or shy and share some food with us.

    Great for relaxation. Beautiful, serene, welcoming. Splendid for scuba divers or paddle boarders. Practically zero night life. Careful: too many dangerous dogs roaming around everywhere in Mauritius (not just on this beach) make nightly walks ghastly and horrifying - I got attacked multiple times! I had to fight for my safety and health and fend the feral beasts off! That’s a harrowing experience you don’t want on your holiday. The government should tackle this serious problem ASAP!

    There are 3-4 notable restaurants, up to 5 street food options. winner's has everything you need. The beach is very good, if it was crystal clear that would be dreamy. Sunday evening (confirmed from a local, it's happening every week) a bit loud, a bit different than others. Difficult to eat outside because of the high volume.

    Balaclava is not the most lively part of Mauritius which suited us perfectly. It consists mostly of vegetable fields, forests and small hamlets. The coast is getting developed with hotels but each is keeping its space so it doesn't feel crowded. You need to rent a car or get a taxi to visit the nearest town, Pamplemousses. There you have the old sugar factory, botanical gardens and a very pleasant shopping mall with a food supermarket.

    The beach of Mon Choisy is a long sunny sandy beach nice for swimming. During October to March it is hot there but the sea is great for swimming. However during these months some cyclones may also visit the Island ! Other months are also sunny and the climate are cooler around 24c during the day. In weekdays the beach is calm and it is not crowded. However during Sundays and public holidays locals are there and it is very crowded but as it is a long beach there is still some space for everyone. On Sundays expect loud music from loudspeakers by some picknickers though there is law about it but it is rarely respected. There are also many stray dogs on the beach but they are not aggresive.

    An ideal spot away from the bustle of Grand Baie. Perfect for couples. There is a large public beach a few minutes walk away which has all the local facilities. Beach shacks selling local food and fresh fruit juices. The local people were all very friendly and the taxi rank nearby was ideal for planning trips.

    Roches Noires is a nice place.

    Roches Noires is a nice place. Keep in mind that in our summer (july / august) it is winter over there and the east coast will have a constant breeze (up to 4 BFT). Having a rental car we found that almost all of the days we would drive to the west or south coast as there is no wind on that side during their winter.
