Not recommended hotel, worst experience as a tour guide in this hotel. Arriving at hotel very tired for check in the reception everyone talking and laughthing loudly including the reception... read more manager Miss Preety and dont even make our procedure. On my trip one day I missed the toilet door and entered in the kitchen this is the most disgusting kitchen ever seen, very dirty, greasy, chefs sweating, crocroach, bad odor,slippery floor
How can the sanitary authorities can allowed this type of kitchen still operating. Till this day I prefer not to eat in there restaurants. I meet also the Chef Mr Nageaa too ask for halal certificate he gave me an expiry one not even mention the hotel name on it. Without complaining to anyone the so called director Mr Kishaan and the General Manager Mr Manoj meet me at the bar talking to us that we are his family, they have two hotels etc... MR DIRECTOR KISHAAN and MR GM Manoj kindly treat your staff well first your family is your staff they have torn shoes, bad uniforms, old pants. Humamanity, the cooks shoes make me feel very bad. I will not recommend any tour operator to send your guest there and not even for the restaurant disgusting kitchen.

This was our first time to Mauritius and the hotel and holiday exceeded our expectations. The food was great and there was something different every night to choose from with... read more lots of choices too. We loved the peacefulness of the resort and no matter if we lay by the beach or by the pool it was quiet and calm. The hotel and grounds are kept extremely keen and there are great housekeeping staff. Really good cocktails on the all inclusive menu and even the house wine was of a high standard too. The staff at the hotel certainly made our holiday. Lucie one of the chefs stood out to us as well as Manoj the manager and Ashwini in the spa. That was also a wonderful experience and a must if you like to treat yourself to a massage while on holiday. We went on two day trips organised through Mani tours at the hotel, one to watch and swim with the dolphins, followed by lunch on a desert island and the second, a tour of the south of the island. Mauritius is truly a beautiful island with lots of stunning areas and attractions to see and experience. Overall our best holiday to date and this hotel is 10 out of 10. More

We had the worst day ever!! We had to wait like an hour to get the room. Once we enterred the room, the floor was so wet. The bedsheet and... read more pillow covers were untidy, with hairs on them. We had to call to change and we lost so much time just to fix the room! Some of the staffs are very friendly but some staffs are so terrible! Like we went to the spa, they laugh on your face! The food is always cold and the service is a complete disaster! Not going there again! I wonder how could this so called hotel is rated as a 4.5 * staff don't have manners and make fun of guests. We could identify the type of service offered to international guests and local guests. Needs to improve on racism as well.

When I asked for a washed cup, she did it again. I then asked if I can have a cup that someone didn't just drink from, at which point the manager or someone came over and gave me a clean cup. 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

In the games room there are 2 pool tables, but they are both in bad condition, with different size pool balls and all of the cues had no tips! So a little difficult to play properly. Table tennis and table football were OK to play. The gym was good and acceptable as long as it didn't get too busy. The evening entertainment was poor in my opinion. They had 'themed nights' each night and one of them was billed as 80's & 90's. But it was nothing of the kind! The dance area is basically a small area in between the front of the stage and dining tables, which are kept out all day. It felt like the same playlist on every night and after 2-3 days it was very samey and there's nothing much really to do at night outside of the hotel. The food choices were OK.

There were birds spotted in the buffet and burger bar eating the fruit and food off plates on numerous occasions. Also there are quite a lot of flies around.
Beds and apartments were comfy.
There were kids were screaming and crying around the pool, so it's not really relaxing. It seems as though there are a few pools at the resort, where actually there is only the one main pool you can lounge around.
There are stray dogs walking around the hotel grounds. They wasn't really a problem though, but every night between 3:30 and 6am I would hear dogs continuously barking non stop for around 30-45 minutes. I was over in the far blocks 251 & 252, so not too sure how loud it was for other areas?
The water was a real problem for us. Sometimes there was no hot water to shower with, sometimes just no water! I actually burnt my hand once because the water came out scolding hot. Just something to be aware of if you have young kids.
Our bath and hand towels were taken and not replaced on 4 or 5 occasions. Each time I had to call reception to ask them to bring towels as we had none in the apartment. Once it took them about 40 minutes to bring towels!
I brought both the water and towels problem to the hotel managers attention saying I was getting frustrated with it. To his credit he acted on it, but the water was still an issue after this at times.
He also replaced the mini bar in one of our rooms with a new fridge as the other one wasn't getting cold.
One thing about Anelia that was good were the staff. There were some there that always made you feel special and made time to stop and chat, always with a smile.
A few that went over and above I felt are:
Alain (main pool towel swap) - Such a nice guy. Gave us plenty of help with our visit to Port Louis amongst other tips. "Thank you for everything Alain"
Lucie (chef) - What a beautiful soul! Always smiling, always asked how we were and made the best pizzas for us!! "Thank you Lucie, your smile will be missed"
Darshan, Prajith & Gaurav (restaurant/bar) - Amazing staff members. Always made sure we were OK for drinks etc and their service was great.
The manager, Manaj was so welcoming too. Nothing was a problem for him and he was always making sure we were all OK whenever our paths crossed. Thank you.
Overall, I guess if it was in full season then it may be a little more exciting to stay at Anelia. It's not a bad hotel, it just needs a few little things taken care of. More

The worst,most racist hotel ever. Front office,starting with the GM,Manoj,who know to tell stories instead of solving guests problems,till the front office lady manager,all are there to take salary’s only!... read more After booking delux room with sea view we got the storage room! On the last night of the stay,we had to move,because they overbooked your room. Now they give us a box room. Staff is over worked,rarely they smile. This is the treatment for Mauritian guests. Nobody from management will help you,actually they will blame the booking company,or you for their incompetence! Everybody should stay away from this hotel,until they change the whole management and front office staff. In the all inclusive package you will have to pay your cappuccino,espresso,and after 10:30pm,you have to pay any drinks you will take from the bar. And the mini bar,is just a mini empty fridge. STAY AWAY from this 4* hotel,because there is no star there whatsoever. Yet,a big thank you for the cleaning staff,start from their manager!
P.S. No sockets are working all over the hotel!
