Lovely location in the bay. A small hotel, but has all the amenities you need for adults only stay. Most pleasant staff. Beautiful food. Rich library, gorgeous atmosphere. Feel like you are at home.

Beautiful boutique hotel on a small sandy beach. Nice rooms. Great atmosphere, great food including lots of good and fresh fish. Only downside, in August it's windy.

Amazing place, and beautiful area of the island. The staff was wonderful and helped me organize a lot of activities. I loved being there. The cleanliness of the room was sub-par. The shower overflowed because the drain was plugged and water went all over the bedroom and living room. The maid didn’t replace the toiletries or all towels daily. It was not so nice in that regard. Also, with the car rental, the GPS didn’t work and I had to use my phone data to get around. The hotel said I didn’t have to pay for the GPS, but then when I dropped off the car, there was a big argument with the car rental company and they made me pay. I contacted the hotel regarding this, and have not heard back. Disappointed in them, especially with their amazing service while I was there.

Faultless. Came for a rest and recovery break, ten days of taking it easy, and access to great water activities and spa services. Food included in the booking is excellent. Did not get bored with the choices, which also include daily special dishes. Great service from guest relations, without feeling any pressure. Many thanks again to the great team. Highly recommended. It is one of the few places where I felt that the actual experience was beyond my expectations from the website.

I rarely rate things negatively, but I had a terrible experience here and wish to warn others. However, before getting to the bad, it would only be fair to give an honest opinion of the good as well. The rooms are nice and the service staff were very friendly. The food was also excellent. Unfortunately, it only takes one bad thing to make a stay memorable for the wrong reason, particularly for a property that is marketed as upscale. So on to the incident... I was booked on a half board basis, which in every place I've ever stayed means that breakfast and dinner are included in the price. At no point was I ever told that there would be supplements charged for certain dishes. I received my bill the night before I checked out and noticed extra charges on my bill. I raised this with the front desk and when I told them I was not informed about additional charges either during my check in or by the wait staff they said they would take care of it. I thought that was the end of it, but later I was requested to speak with the manager. They said they couldn't do anything about the extra charges and then proceeded to make me feel like I was stupid for not knowing something that no one explained to me and was not explicit on their menu. I've never felt so belittled by hotel management and would never recommend this place to anybody. There are many beautiful places to visit in Mauritius so I suggest you find somewhere else to go!

Very warm welcome upon arrival in this cozy,, charming hotel. It was more compact than expected perhaps due to it's location in busy Grand Baie. Did not use the beach facilities so have no comment, nor the small swimming pool situated in the middle of the hotel. The restaurant was delicious, and one of the nicest meals we experienced, the breakfast buffet was equally enticing. The room was clean and practical, though smaller than expected. We were very surprised that this hotel is (and the only one on the island) labelled a Relais and Chateaux. We stayed in several hotels that were easily on a par.. and they certainly not the most expensive.

Basic rooms poorly designed and look right into main pool area - upgraded and had a great time

Despite email confirmation prior to travel didn’t get room we thought we’d booked. Spiralled downward from there; too many petty rules quoted to us on arrival and to cap it all was told to re-park my car as policy says cars must be reveresed into spaces. Checked out after 1 night of 4 night stay. It felt that guests got in the way of the hotel, it’s policies and tbe staff. Could be such a brilliant place but reminded me of being at school. Avoid.

I can recommend the hotel. It is an attractive architected ensemble of houses, direct at the ocean front. We could go snorkeling by Boat and take bikes with at no extra costs. The hotel ia a little off Gran Bay, but they provide several times a day the possibility to go there by boat at no costs

Nice rooms. Quiet and private. Excellent wifi, even on the beach.

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights in Nov 2016. We arrived in the evening 730pm and the check in took longer then expected. They had said the room wasn't ready although it states check in time is 3pm! We had booked the charming room and it was quite small - the bathroom was bigger then the bedroom! The room features were beautiful almost like staying in at Soho Farmhouse - white washed rooms with shabby chic furniture. We had half board - breakfast and dinner included. it was a continental Breakfast with special orders of egg so not much really. Dinner was lovely and some good options however a lot of the items on the menu are not included in the half board. Also if your hungry after 930pm then you're kind of stuck as the kitchen closes no in room dining and your in a remote area which means you can't go anywhere. The beach is small but has a beautiful view of the bay, can be windy at times. Watersport are complimentary although didn't get a chance to do any. Boat shuttle available into town however its a shabby boat which didn't seem safe! A charming hotel with a games room and a very big library of books with traditional games back gammon, large chess board etc. A nice place if you don't want to leave the hotel however it is rather small and we were the youngest couple there (Aged 30-35) A lot of insects around the premises - i saw a snake crawling up the stairs as i went to my room! but thats natural right in a place like Mauritius
