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. But after a week if got a little boring and repetitive. There were birds spotted in the buffet and burger bar eating the fruit and food off plates on numerous occasions.

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 room opened directly onto the infinity pool and had the beach just in front of it. The food was buffet system but was good still has space for improvement in terms of quality. It had all varieties of cuisines from French to Indian with an English breakfast for the morning.
Once again, A big thanks for Mr. Ackson and Mr. Ruben you guys made our stay special.
Dear management- Your Restaurant, bar and housekeeping team is little lazy and arrogant pls look into it.
Highly recommended for stay.
Especially for those on their honeymoon this resort is a must visit place.

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.

From start to finish the staff here were exceptional. They all were so helpful and friendly especially Martial one of the waiters. Food was good but the burger bar at... read more lunch time was defo the best for us, the club sandwich was fantastic! We had a private dinner on the beach one night and the food was amazing! 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 I’m not sure the girls knew the extent of my burn but it did scab up and turn brown ☹️ 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 would totally recommend this hotel. More
