A small hotel with about 31 rooms. Staff are friendly. I booked a single room. and got a room with one double and one single bed, but no arm chairs. Rather limited choice at breakfast Evening meal was nearly always a buffet of the basic theme of salads for starter, main course was mostly rice, curry and vegtables, and desert was fruit salad and one or two other dishes. While plenty to eat, not of great variety and nor to of great standard. Nothing special for Christmas day. Christmas Eve was the same as usual, but with some dips and a free drink. There is twice a week in the morning a glass bottom boat trip along the reef for half hour - not bad. However, I skipped the "evening cruise" run once a week, which started at 4:30 in the afternoon for half-hour. Maybe starting at 7pm would have been better. About twice a week there was some loud disco music which started at 10pm and stopped just after 11pm. The hotel is next to the beech, and the sea is fine for swimming in or laying on the beech. The hotel provides a beach towel, although a bit small. Main local shops are at Flic-en-flac, while the hotel is at Wolmar, where there are only a few shops.

In beautiful location the Gold Beach Hotel (Gold Beach Resort (GBR) is a quiet and very friendly hotel on the lovely west coast of Mauritius. The hotel is sandwiched between other more upmarket (and much more expensive!) hotels but holds it's own being so small and friendly. The staff are lovely and polite. The evening meal is little disappointing for some European guests, favouring Indian cuisine every day, but the food is always cooked well and is always edible. The hotel offers evening entertainment once or twice a week and the staff also perform songs and dances, which is lovely.

The staff were of high standard, very pleasant, interacted well without becoming over familiar. The condition of the hotel was becoming run down, my bathroom and room needed a fresh paint, mould was showing and peeling paint. The description of the hotel was modern and I think that this must be a very old description as it is no longer modern however I like the fact that it was a small hotel it just needs upgrading, maintained and freshened up.

I was greeted with a complimentary drink by friendly hotel staff. The hotel grounds were immaculate and my room was clean. This is a no-frills hotel for those on a budget. Although my room was satisfactorily clean, there were stains on the linens provided. But the staff were helpful and the hotel food was very good.

We went there in May of this year, the staff was very polite and looked after us very well. The food was not to my taste but if you tell them what you want the day before they will cook it for you the next day.
