There are lots of pretty areas with sun beds in them, itโs not just all focussed around the pool, and the parasols are steady as a rock. It was pretty windy while we were there and the parasols were steady as a rock.

My favourite was the pancakes with chocolate sauce, available every morning and afternoon. The lamb burgers in the burger bar were another favourite, and my partner loved the fish curries. This is the first time we have been all inclusive and we were very happy. I like a lot of soft drinks during the day and there was plenty of juice and water available, plus a few cans in the mini bar. We also indulged in the cocktails, and the local wine was excellent. We had a lovely candlelit meal for two on the beach, well not quite candlelit because there was a breeze and the candle didnโt stand a chance, but a lovely salad, seafood platter and a heart shaped cake in a beautiful romantic setting.

I must mention also the staff who were just wonderful, I could not fault the customer service. I felt that they were all focussed on making sure we had a lovely holiday, and we were constantly told to ask if there was anything we needed. They arranged a couple of tours of the island for us, much cheaper than our tour operator. We also went out on the glass bottomed boat, which is free. Itโs only a half hour trip, which really suits me because I get seasick easily, so we were out and back before I started to feel queasy and we saw some beautiful fish plus some rays, starfish and coral. Due to the wind we were unable to go out on the snorkelling boat trip, and they wouldnโt let us borrow masks to just go out in the bay so itโs worth taking gear with you or buying some in the town.
Flic-en-Flac beach is very appealing. It has swimming areas marked out with buoys, but there is broken coral everywhere so you need water shoes for swimming and walking on the beach.
I thoroughly enjoyed yoga on the beach. Iโve often done Pilates with some kind of soothing music in the background, but you canโt beat a session to the sound of the actual ocean. More

So first of all, the hotel is in a wonderful location and had everything you need, a good gym though could use some heavier weights on some machines (or maybe... read more I'm just strong), lovely pools, a good games room, great rooms with great views.

The TVs aren't consistent and depends what one you get determines if it's any good, but not a big concern for myself.

Eating became a nightmare. We ventured up to the burger bar one lunch time having been assured from the head chef that a gluten free option was available. It was, however it took over an hour and a half for 4 out of 5 burgers to be made, and were delivered cold to the table and without fries. One of our party had waited long enough and had already left by this point. With all the burgers freezing cold, the blame was put on the fact there was a gluten free burger in the order. I wasn't sure whether to be angry at the blatant lie (gluten free burgers don't take any longer to cook and certainly not 90 minutes) or to laugh at the circus that was becoming mealtime. It was at this point the senior management stepped in and the head chef had to cook all of the gluten free meals, which was the saving grace of the restaurant. Aside from the gluten issues, there was an overwhelming amount of curry on offer every night that was so spicy I can only assume they have invented a genetically modified chilli to make them. Prepare to wait upwards of 10 minutes for basics to be replaced.
What was more baffling was everything on the room service menu, is not available to eat in the restaurant.
The breakfast service was pretty okay with a good variety on offer, but for some reason there seems to be a reluctance to offer tea and coffee. Not once was I offered coffee or tea, I had to ask for it every time. If it was that much of an issue please make it self service.
The water sport activities at the hotel look pretty good, until you have to have lived like a saint, have the whitest of teeth and be having a lucky day to use any of the pedalos, or kayaks. Some of our party did go on the glass bottom boat tour, I say some as we were told a maximum of 4 could go on it, later finding out the boat has capacity for 9. We did book to go snorkelling and dolphin watching, (at an extra cost) which I must admit was fantastic and as a bonus we did see a whale! Then we were dropped on some god forsaken deserted island for four hours and even though the hotel is on the beach, we couldn't be dropped off at the hotel beach. It had to be the flic en Flac beach a good 10 minute walk away. Was very confused and irritated by this.
One day we thought we'd venture out and go to the local nature park for some activities, we asked reception to book a taxi for us for 1:45 for 5 people. It was quickly agreed and was told it will be 1200 rupees. Seemed steep but fair enough. Until 1:45 came, and a taxi for 4 people turned up. To then be told we'd need a second taxi and it would be 1800 rupees. We asked reception to call another taxi for 5 people, i.e. a people carrier, and they said it's on it's way. They had called the same taxi company and the same two taxis turned up. By this point we were running late and had to just pay for receptions incompetence.
On the last day we had a late check out and concierge said they would come and collect the bags at 3:30 ready for our transfer. 3:30 came and went so we were left carrying the bags down the stairs. Only to be met about 100m from reception by the concierge telling us to put the bags down and he'd take them. I'm not really sure why, we'd done all the hard parts and just slowed us down at that point. I can't bemoan them too much, I did expect them to lose the bags in that 100m so I was surprised when they did reach reception.
There is a real distinct lack of professionalism and accountability at this hotel. Even down to a lack of consistency in uniform for most staff, some looked like they were on the beach, some looked like they were staff from other hotels, and some looked the part.
Amongst all this I must commend the general manager Manoj, and the head chef who did their utmost to make this trip wonderful. 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. 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.

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 resort offers complimentary and paid water activities and also helps with any logistical requests you may have (cab, two wheeler rentals, currency exchange etc). The wifi is connectivity is strong throughout the resort and was sufficient to carry out any work related tasks if necessary.
The candle light dinner by the beach side along with live performance was certainly stand out experience of our stay and for that I once again extend my sincere thanks to Loshny and her team.
