However, the entrance/reception area is so out of date as is the dining area (very 70's and in need of a refurbishment).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!

Please check out our other reviews to see we always leave an honest opinion.
Booked for my 50th birthday and we joined a Facebook group to ask a few... read more questions as it was our first time in Mairitius and this hotel caught our eye.
We paid £140 a night for bed breakfast and evening meal. Someone commented thst it was nice for a budget hotel . We thought £140 a night was rather a lot but we are in Mairitius!!
Anyway, check in was easy and had a lovely welcoming drink but we had to wait for around an hour for our room.
When we got to our room it was on the 3rd floor with no lift. Ordinarily this wouldn’t be an issue but just before flying I had an issue with my sight and balance affected so this caused some issues but none that couldn’t be overcome.
Room was lovely with spectacular views of the ocean. You could actually hear the waves crashing. Room was clean but housekeeping was a little lax with things like complimentary teas not being refilled etc but with a call to receptionist this was rectified immediately.
Breakfast was lovely with a huge choice of food and plenty of it including egg station, bacon, hash browns, 3 types of sausage, different breads, fruits etc.
Dinner, I’m a very fussy eater and I had no issues at all. The only thing I would comment was there wasn’t a lot of potato selection such as fries etc but I managed. Loads of curry choices , rice, rotis and hubby loved every one. Lots of different meat choices also and cooked to perfection. I do like a soup but not fish and there was lots of fish based soup. Also, last night we had food down on the beach and it blew us away. The setting was gorgeous
Pools were great although could do with a few more umbrellas. The little private beach was great and lots of umbrellas.
Staff - wow. So friendly, polite and helpful. Always speaking to you and making sure you were ok and had everything you needed. We don’t have anything to complain about here and would definitely recommend it.

Anelia resort was booked with lot of hopes . They assured availability of good indian chef and quality food, which we never could taste during our 5 days stay. 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

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.

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.
