Le Chateau Golf Course of Mauritius -Always a pleasure to come to the Castle and Telfair!
What a fantastic experience. The accommodation in the Villas was superb and the dining experience at the various restaurants was fantastic.
Travelled to Heritage Awali hotel for a 2 week holiday and we golfed every day at the amazing Chateau Golf Course. It is a fantastic golf course, that is kept in great condition, and it offers numerous tees to suit all standards. We had the privilege of meeting the Golf Director, Darrin Hedley, who gave us some great advice for a future golf trip to South Africa. Thank you!
The team at the course are all very hard working and incredibly welcoming - particularly being super friendly to our 9 year old (golf enthusiast!) son.
We also ate at the Golf club for lunch and dinner on various occasions - great food and very good service, particularly from Christophe. He is an asset to the team.
As for the course, it was simply magnificent. Extremely well manicured, greens were superb. The rough was tough, poor shots were penalised. This course was an absolute treat - Darren Hedley and his team (especially Nathan) went out of their way to make sure that our golf tour (16 people) went without a hitch. Carts were marked with each player, with tee times etc. provided on them.
I would highly recommend it.

I had a fantastic experience at Hotel Outrigger. The staff were outstanding, always welcoming and attentive. Special thanks to Robby, who managed our reservation effortlessly from the beginning. And Dinson, who truly stood out. He is diligent and committed to his work, consistently ensuring everything is done perfectly. He goes above and beyond to offer the best service to clients, and his professionalism made my visit memorable. Thanks to the entire team for such a wonderful experience!

We had a fantastic experience with Akash. It was great fun riding in the 4x4 and he stopped loads to tell us interesting facts. He welcomed all questions and made the experience truly memorable. We ended up being out for almost 3 hours instead of 2. Swimming in the waterfall was amazing! Akash also took photos and videos on my phone which was great. I think this was the best trip of the holiday!

Perfect Holiday Experience
The holiday was perfect with very nice lodging; we were able to pay for an upgrade to a beachfront villa, which was delightful. The villa was cleaned daily and equipped with air conditioning and a fan. There are four dining venues, ranging from bar snacks to gourmet meals. We had an all-inclusive package, covering nearly all meals. The beer is excellent, and the food boasts plenty of options. If possible, visit the Plantation for superb service by the pool; it's perfection. We had access to this. The beachfront is lovely, offering stunning sunsets. While the weather can vary, we mostly enjoyed sunshine with pleasant temperatures of 25°C—never cold during day or night. It's perfect. The staff are extremely friendly and eager to help. Special mentions go to Dinson at the Plantation for his 5-star service and helpfulness, along with Yanish and Meet, who also gave 5-star service. Vic at Edgewater restaurant was consistently friendly and accommodating. Arvesh at reception is the man who made everything happen for us, and Robert the manager was always ready to assist. Chand, who served drinks poolside, always had a smile. Ultimately, the people made it memorable for us. I have no qualms about returning, knowing we'd receive a warm welcome and a big smile.

Pleasant Stay with Room for Improvement in Buffet Options
Overall, the hotel is quite lovely. It's spacious and not overcrowded. Our time at the Mercado buffet fell short of expectations due to the limited variety of dishes. However, our experience at the Plantation Club restaurant was fantastic, with special thanks to Mr. Dinson for his warm and helpful service. Kudos to the customer service team. I appreciate the delightful breakfast. The room and amenities were nice and very comfortable.

Serene Escape with Delightful Cuisine
This is a charming, tranquil, clean, and spacious resort/hotel that offers a range of culinary options. The staff, including trainees and maintenance crew, are amicable, supportive, and always greet you with warm, delightful smiles that make you feel welcomed. Loved the night when they provided Asian dishes: the fish ball soup was exceptionally fresh and tasty. It reminded me of the freshly handmade fish balls from Singapore/Malaysia; the fried Asian noodles were delicious. That evening, they also served Crab soup and dumplings. Wow! These combinations greatly increased my appetite—truly felt like home. They also feature Roti, which they call Puri, quite similar to the Roti Prata in Singapore/Malaysia. On another night, they had chicken corn soup; this chicken corn soup was incredibly tasty, a must-try again. The pastries and bread served every morning were fantastic—freshly baked delights. Especially loved the croissant and Danish pastry; they were so yummy and not to be missed. I think they offer the best croissant and Danish pastry I've ever had. Thanks to all the staff for making our stay at Tamassa Hotel/resort unforgettable. <3<3<3

Wonderful Family Stay with Excellent Service and Comfort
Last year, we visited this hotel with our young child and had a delightful experience. Right from our arrival, the staff, especially Mr. Krishen Virasami, made us feel at ease and went above and beyond to cater to us as a family. They were kind, patient, and always ready with a smile, which made traveling with a child much easier and more enjoyable. The food was superb, offering a great variety that satisfied both adults and kids alike. The restaurant team thoughtfully assisted us with choices suitable for children, which we greatly appreciated. The atmosphere was relaxed, secure, and comfortable—just what we needed for a family vacation. Overall, it was an excellent stay, and we are thankful to the staff for making it a positive experience for us and our child. Highly recommended for families! We will definitely return!

Honeymooning Paradise Resort
I visited this place with my husband for our honeymoon. We truly enjoyed our stay and talked about returning with friends to the same hotel. The staff is incredibly friendly and always ready to assist with anything you need. The views are lovely, featuring the garden, rooms, ocean, beach, and pool. We also appreciated the delicious food and drinks. Additionally, we used the gym and tennis court for some exercise. The spa offers nice massages too. We loved it here for its tranquility, and it really feels like a paradise resort.

Fantastic Oceanfront Stay
The location was fantastic! I had a ground floor room with an ocean view—ideal for sitting outside and watching the sea. The staff provided superb service. At night, small lizards visited the porch, which was quite charming. There were a few ants in the room, but being close to nature and winter season, it was expected. The room was cleaned daily with fresh towels provided and the bed changed once during the week. The mini bar was basic, yet beach staff were available to take drink orders all day, or room service could be ordered. I used room service multiple times for meals, snacks, and drinks. Over seven days, the extra service charges amounted to £40, which was fine since I was on holiday. With the all-inclusive package, no additional food or drink costs were incurred. They extended the package until I left the hotel, even after the 11 am checkout. I booked massage treatments to pass the time, and it was possible to shower if you planned to hit the beach using other hotel facilities. The all-inclusive benefits lasted until my departure around 4 pm, which was thoughtful, keeping refreshments trouble-free. I embarked on three day excursions during my 7-day solo trip. I felt secure, and the taxi drivers shared the intriguing history of Mauritius and any information I required. Next time, I’d like to stay longer since the journey from the UK was long—it deserves an extended visit. A lovely place with friendly locals, stunning scenery, and amazing snorkeling to see the vibrant fish.

A Refreshing Day at Tamassa Hotel
I spent a day at Tamassa Hotel using their day package deal, and it was such an invigorating retreat! From the moment I arrived, the warm welcome and stunning tropical ambiance set the stage for a calming experience. The package provided access to the pool, beach, and hotel amenities, plus a generous lunch buffet with unlimited drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options). The food by chef Edinho and team was amazing, with a broad range of local and international dishes, fresh seafood, and delightful desserts. The staff was friendly and attentive all day. The pool area was vibrant yet serene, with plenty of loungers and shade. I also strolled along the beach—soft white sand and clear blue water, perfect for a swim or simply relaxing under the sun. If you're seeking a brief escape without staying overnight, I highly recommend Tamassa’s day package. It's ideal for families, couples, or friends wanting to relax and enjoy a taste of resort-style luxury for a day.

Perfect Island Escape at Tamassa Hotel
Spending a weekend at Tamassa Hotel was the ideal tropical getaway. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. We began with a refreshing welcome drink, then spent time basking in the sun on the stunning beach and lounging by the pool. The lunch buffet was a true highlight, offering a delicious variety of dishes, fresh seafood, and tropical desserts. Afterward, we took a relaxing walk around the lush gardens and even tried some complimentary water activities. The ambiance was chilled yet lively, with music, excellent service, and breathtaking surroundings. Whether relaxing with a cocktail or simply enjoying the view, every moment felt like a holiday. A perfect way to unwind, recharge, and savor the essence of island life—all in just one day. Special thanks to Siven, Chef Kunal, and Chef Edinho for their hospitality.

The lunch buffet was tasty, featuring a wide array of dishes to please every palate, and the drinks were simply incredible. We also had the opportunity to unwind at the spa, which was indeed a calming and refreshing experience. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the therapists were professional and attentive. The day package at Tamassa is truly worthwhile—highly recommended for anyone aiming to relax in a beautiful setting with exceptional service!

Wonderful Hotel Experience in July 2025
I stayed at this hotel in July 2025 and was warmly welcomed by the staff upon arrival. Everyone greeted us and invited us to sit at the reception, where we were offered a special sugarcane drink that was delicious. After receiving routine information, our rooms were ready. They were conveniently close to the reception. Upon entering, the room was stunning, with the bed nicely made, the temperature cool, and plenty of space. We had a family room with an adjacent space that was lovely. We relaxed before heading to dinner at the buffet. There, we were once again greeted warmly. We took turns making our plates, and the food was delightful. We enjoyed drinks at the bar with nice music, wrapping up the day. The following day, we relaxed by the main pool despite the less-than-ideal weather, which, of course, wasn't the hotel's fault. It was a lovely pool area with music and several restaurants. During our stay in Mauritius, we drove around the island, not exploring the hotel in full, but it's definitely recommended. � The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating.

Wonderful Stay at Tamassa
Our experience at Tamassa was truly delightful. We originally booked two Tamassa rooms, and the hotel kindly upgraded us to Superior rooms that offered stunning views of the pool and a direct view of the beach in the distance. The rooms were very spacious, featuring a wonderful bathroom and a comfortable bed. We upgraded to half board for 1200 Mauritian rupees per adult per night, and the breakfast and dining options included an excellent mix of continental, Indian, and Mauritian cuisines. There were ample vegetarian choices, so we had no trouble finding meals. The property itself is beautiful, boasting a long beach, excellent facilities like a boathouse with complimentary glass-bottom boat tours and snorkeling, free daytime drinks at the beach, three fantastic large pools, and expansive grounds that our children enjoyed immensely. The staff was consistently welcoming and helpful.

He truly made an extra effort to ensure we felt comfortable and welcomed. Strongly recommend this spot for anyone seeking a relaxing and luxury-filled escape!

The food stood out—delicious, diverse, and fresh at every meal, with chefs Edinho, Suraj, and Jean Marc ensuring we enjoyed each dish. The all-inclusive option made everything super convenient.

Highly recommended for couples, families, or anyone seeking a memorable holiday in Mauritius.

From our arrival, the hospitality was excellent, especially from Ayush, who was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. He was polite, kind, and had great customer service skills, making a lasting impression on our experience.
