Tea and coffee - only available from main restaurant. Even at breakfast it was pre made in insulated jugs. Each bar had a coffee machine but was not in use. No cold milk.
Local area - some restaurants but no local shops apart from two and they closed very early.
Prices - very expensive for everything outside the hotel.
Beach wasnโt bad just disappointing. Very small and rest of frontage is black boulders used as sea defences. Thereโs steps leading to a sea swimming area but they are broken but still can be used with care. Take own snorkel and reef shoes. Please get those steps fixed.
We did two trips. Both were excellent and booked through Facebook from recommendations on the Love Mauritius page. Took boat trip which was fantastic. South Island trip brilliant too.
Weather in mid May was very good. Occasionally depending on wind direction there could be some cloud cover and short, sharp showers but majority of time was perfect. Very warm but not too uncomfortable.
So please fix steps to sea, get coffee machines working. Sort out check in. Otherwise fantastic hotel - keep up the good work. More

The entertainment was a bit of a joke, the stage where it happens is in the dining room so all a bit awkward, the staff just seem to want to amuse themselves doing all the karaoke and dancing, there was no daytime entertainment that we saw apart from aqua aerobics and the glass bottom boat was out of service.
On our departure at 6.30am there was nobody on reception to book us out, luckily someone found him. Not a four star hotel and don't recommend. More

The only silverlining was good tour guides , though they too didn't take us to some better locations. It's always advisable to first scan hotel properties and travel agencies through sites like tripadvisor and then proceed with better n reasonable options. Mauritius is of course a great beautiful country with scenic views and many options for fun loving tourists having very hospitable people. More

Another disappointment thing is the food. They do not know how to cook or serve the meals. Very poor buffet spread and strictly no for Indians.
We interacted with the chef and told him our concern.. asked him to prepare something for us or at least take care of the following meals, to which the answer was so shocking..
He does not know how to make it, and he does not have the staff.
Would not recommend this property to anyone even if they offer the stay for free.

There is lots of activities to do if you wish but we just wanted to relax. We had a sea view room which for me was a real bonus and defo worth paying extra for. We had a couples full body massage and facials too at the garden spa on site. The girls were fantastic although I did get burnt with boiling water to the side of my face by a machine they were using to steam my face. Obviously the machine was faulty and to be fair Iโm not sure the girls knew the extent of my burn but it did scab up and turn brown โน๏ธ If I had to look for a complaint it would be that at the bar the French speaking people all got served first even though I had been standing there before them and sometimes for 5/10 mins at a time.

I was absolutely baffled by the whole scenario.
The quality of the food was low. The only good food were the indian dishes (note that I'm not Indian nor have been there so no idea how authentic it was) as they tasted very good and were somewhat spicy. Also the fried eggs at breakfast were good. Everything else was kind of awful.
The bar staff had zero training whatsoever. They didn't know how to make most of the cocktails so they googled them there and then or improvised. None of them were even close to what they're supposed to be. Also, when asking for dry wine, the bartender kept giving me very sweet ones. They had no idea what they were serving.
So while the room, the view and the pool were nice, I really cannot recommend the hotel. The staff are not professionally trained at all. More
