I honestly have no idea where to start… what an amazing well needed holiday! I knew this trip would be magnificent but it exceeded my expectations in every single way. After a long journey, we were very tired and delirious to say the least. We were instantly greeted with a refreshing drink and checked in straight away, to an amazing, clean and well decorated room with a postcard picture view! A much needed nap was taken and this is where everyone and everything blew us away. There isn’t a bad word to say about the staff or the hotel. We were very lucky to stay at Cannonier but also visit Mauricia, Victoria and Trou Aux Biches and everytime we returned, we were glad we picked this hotel. It was so relaxing and peaceful but had enough going on to keep you entertained if that’s what you like, with the like of a glass bottom boat, pedalos, paddle boards, kayaks and much more. Frangipanier… what an incredible buffet restaurant! From breakfast, lunch and evening meal, every single item is fresh, tasty and beats any other buffet restaurant at other hotels. There themed evening nights are also outstanding, especially Indian and Asian night. We actually cancelled 2 nights at the Al la Carte restaurants because we didn’t want to miss out on these nights. The Navigator is exceptional in every way! The views, the lunch (to die for), the evening dinner service and even the dance floor it turns into on a Friday and Saturday evening. It really is the cream of the crop. A lot of amazing food will be consumed here and if you really want to treat yourself, get the lobster, you will not be disappointed. Serenata is just you expect from an Italian… warm and hearty. The prawn risotto was a favourite here! The live music of an evening at the Planteur bar was perfect, not too much but just enough. The Spa… WOW. Set amongst a Banyan Tree, there is really nothing else quite like it! The perfect place to sit back, relax and unwind. I could really go on but I guaranteed you will not be disappointed with a stay a Beachcomber Cannonier. Finally, the biggest shout out to the staff! We felt like a celebrity from the moment we arrived to the moment we left and we were certainly emotional about leaving this amazing place. Every member of staff will go above and beyond but I just want to say a massive thank you Roshan, Muliah and Amirita because you made us never want to leave! Top Tips: Book your Al La Carte Restaurants in advance. Make sure you pack or buy some sea shoes from the shop on site at the hotel. Plan any excursions you may want to do, they get booked up! Especially the boat trips. Have the best time ever! P.s. Keep an eye out for the resident cats Kevin and Simone!
