Hotel- grounds are beautiful and staff are friendly, sea view room stunning.
Food- not for us , burger bar was not great and burgers (beef and chicken poor quality and cooked pink despite asking for well done, Buffett restaurant limited choose (unless u eat curry & fish) the pizza was all we ate every night.
Insects - big issues with insects, and birds in restaurant, and stray cats riddled in fleas.
Evening entertainment not really maybe a bit of dancing but mainly just a DJ, entertainment team appearance to just be walking around all day.
All saying that it was a good break away but wouldn’t visit again.

The resort is beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly maintained. The rooms were very clean... read more and comfortable, and the ocean view made our stay even more special. The staff were extremely polite, friendly, and always ready to help, which made us feel very welcome.
As an Indian traveler, I really appreciated the food options. There were good vegetarian choices available, and the taste was satisfying. The overall dining experience was excellent.
The beach access, swimming pool, and relaxing atmosphere made our trip memorable. It’s a perfect place for family trips as well as couples.
Overall, I highly recommend Anelia Resort & Spa to anyone planning a Mauritius trip from India. I would definitely love to visit again!

It's always advisable to first scan hotel properties and travel agencies through sites like tripadvisor and then proceed with better n reasonable options.

However, the entrance/reception area is so out of date as is the dining area (very 70's and in need of a refurbishment). The pool area is very nice, clean and the view is amazing but there is NO atmosphere round the pool area so we went to the beach each day instead. The food is definitely more for those enjoying curries (I don't unfortunately) and on one or two occasions, there were very few alternative dishes to choose from. The lack of entertainment was such a disappointment. There is a lovely man who is trying to reintroduce evening entertainment - the 2 evenings where dinner was on the beach was good and we all got up and danced with the dancers on stage but the other evenings were woefully dull - luckily we made friends with another 2 couples and on karaoke night we entertained all the other guests. There really should have been someone from the hotel to encourage others to join in but there wasn't so when we had had enough, it just fizzled out!

I liked a hotel, but few thinks was really not ok and I hope the hotel will do something to change things. The waiters was ok with the clients, but... read more few of them bullying the others waiters very very badly! It was not nice to see and sometimes I just wanted to say them to stop. Also two times was no glass in the table so I ask. The waiters went to the table were where the used glasses/plates and just pick for me a glass from there It was lipstick on the glass. Also sometimes we got used napkins and how knows what else. The other problem is the boathous. We stayed 14 day but not even once we was able the use the kajak or a pedal boat. The boats were in the beach, but they always gave us some stupid reason why we can use it. Once we went morning, they told us come back afternoon about 4 PM now it’s low tide. We went back, the some person just told us, sorry we close at 4 PM.. Also one day the cleaning staff left our door open, so when we come back we almost got a heart attack. Luckely nothing was stolen and I’m sure it was not a general problem, happened only once.
