Anelia Hotel Room 325, Mauritius
I am staying in this hotel June 8-26, 2022
I found the management of the hotel needs to pay attention to the following:
... read more />
Reno needed
Baseboard incompletely installed and finished. Looks tacky.
Vanity siding, as with other areas, need a coat of varnish/paint.
Patio door latch was broken and cannot be locked.
Room walls are not tastefully finished.
House Keeping
Drape is dirty and partly off hook (this was later rectified).
Floor is tiled. It is occasionally wet and dry mopped but never vacuumed.
In fact, I do not think house keeping has a vacuum.
I think I am a very clean person, somehow, the floor in the room gets quite dirty. For the ~18 nights I stayed here (2 more nights to go) my room has only been wet mopped once.
I have so far seen in the room 4 cockroaches, a spider, two large ants and numerous small ants.
I do not know the responsibility of cleaning of the corridors falls on whom. They were seldom cleaned. There was a stray cat around and at one point during my stay, cat feces was left on the corridor floor for two days only to be cleaned when I complained to the manager.
General
Staffs are friendly and hard working. Some speak Creole more fluently than English.
Swimming pool water seems clean but does not seem well chlorinated. Pool was was not heated - feels cold to me.
Pool towels are accessible from poolside cabana but it closes early at 4:00 pm. Sunset close to 6:00 pm this time of the year.
American breakfast is adequate. Stated serving time supposedly 7:30 am to 10:00 am but food choice is not adequately stocked until realistically 8:00 am. Provided food is adequate in buffet style. However, it is unpleasant to eat with pesky birds and flies which are not too few in numbers.
This hotel has a large compound and barely adequately lit in the evening. The compound contains several buildings housing the guests. In the evening, during my early days of staying here, I found the hotel compound confusing and I did not find it easy to locate my room in the dim light. I would suggest that directions be painted on the cement pavement with the buildings clearly labelled and lit on the outside wall; eg. (Building) A, B, C..
Rooms are large, well lit, provided with kettle for making tea & coffee with powder milk and sugar. Disposable slippers are provided.
There is one each of hairdryer, TV, safe, ceiling fan and AC installed in the room.
They is a phone in the guest room. However, no pen/pencil (I lost my only pen) or writing pad is provided as is customary in a lot of other hotels.
The rooms are quite and chambermaids usually do not showed up till around 11:00 am. I am fine with that.
Each room has its own patio provided with patio furniture consisting of a table and two chairs - I find those handy especially for drying wet clothes.
Hotel security is adequate. I had to sign a paper to say that the hotel would not be responsible for lost items.
All-in-all I would rate my stay here a C+ or 3.5/5.

Just spent two weeks at hotel in May from UK. Lovely hotel that could be excellent if it just improved a few minor points. Don’t come here if you want... read more wall to wall entertainment but do come if you want to relax in excellent surroundings.
Good points -
Immaculately clean everywhere.
Friendly staff.
Beautiful swimming pool.
Good breakfasts.
Lovely grounds that were well maintained.
Large rooms with large comfortable beds.
Food was excellent and never got bored over two weeks. No tummy bugs either.
Flic en flac beach - you can walk for miles.
Drinks - mostly good although Pina Colada was pre made. White wine and beer very drinkable.
Beautiful sunsets.
Area felt very safe.
Bad points-
Arrival. Looked after well with drink and towel but left for 30 minutes then told room wasn’t ready and wouldn’t be for another 4 hours. Allowed to have a shower but after travelling for 24 hours, all you want is a change of clothes and dive into the pool. They were even a little hesitant on us getting lunch or a drink as the all inclusive didn’t start until we got our key. Shame holiday started like this as had no other real issues.
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 wasn’t bad just disappointing. Very small and rest of frontage is black boulders used as sea defences. There’s 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.

The hotel is situated on the western side of the island.
Rooms are specious, they include a safe, hairdryer and a replenished mini bar for all inclusive. Our... read more room was on the 1st floor of the new buildings. We had a partial view of the ocean, but we did not spend much time in the room.
The hotel itself is a bit outdated, but more than comfortable for us. It has 2 pools, a bar and a beach bar.
The beach is mainly rocky but there is a sandy bit. There is loads of sun loungers and umbrellas by the water and the pools.
Wi-Fi is fast in the rooms and the bar, but less so on the beach.
We used the spa, which is reasonably priced and the massage very relaxing.
All inclusive is not ALL inclusive but there is a decent list of available drinks.
Food is absolutely delicious. It is mainly curry, but not all, and the variety changes every day. Every day was a feast. We also enjoyed one dinner on the beach.
Staff - I have never met such smiley, polite, humble and helpful members of staff. They are genuinely there to help you and make your stay enjoyable and comfortable.
Right by, there is the longest beach on the island, 8km of sand. There is also sightseeing to do - a safari, the largest waterfall in Mauritius and colourful sand to name a few.
We highly recommend this hotel!
