Africa Adventure Holidays

Overall, I had a great stay at The Residence Mauritius and thoroughly enjoyed my time there. The rooms were comfortable and well maintained, the service was warm, and the beach is simply spectacular—without doubt one of the hotel's greatest assets. That said, there are areas where I believe the hotel could improve. The biggest disappointment was the food at the main buffet. The quality was average, and on some occasions even below average. For a five-star resort in Mauritius, this was surprising, especially considering that many other luxury hotels on the island offer exceptional dining experiences. Coming from the hospitality industry myself, I genuinely believe this property has enormous potential. The foundations are already there: a beautiful location, excellent beach, charming atmosphere, and a strong team. With greater focus on the food and beverage offering and continued attention to detail, I have no doubt it could become one of the standout luxury resorts in Mauritius. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay and would happily return. At this stage, however, I would personally rate the hotel between **4 and 4.5 stars**, rather than a full five stars.

It was a good experience, worth it

Clean room nice view but too far from activities

Spent 4 nights here in August with my teen daughter and had the most amazing time. Beaches and pools were regularly cleaned. We used the heated pool which was comfortable. A jacuzzi would be a great add on! Boat house activities were great, recommended to book when you arrive as well as the restaurants if you are not doing half or full board. Breakfast variety was very good and replenished well. Service was great and there was no language barrier at all. Rooms were clean with modern amenities. Toilets were in a separate cubicle than the shower (probably a French influence thing) so washing hands was a bit of a hassle but it reduces bathroom traffic lol. Small point but relevant. Also I felt there could have been more activities. Overall it was a wonderful resort and would love to return for a week long relaxing stay.
