Hotel berhampiran Monument Commemorating la bataille naval du Vieux Grand-Port, Mahebourg

Initially we booked 4 nights here with a plan to extend our stay or move on somewhere else. We were a bit concerned with some of the negative reviews but it definitely looked our sort of place - a small property with stunning beachside location that offered a limited facility all-inclusive. Well, we arrived after the 12 hour flight from London to be told they were overbooked and we’d been “upgraded” to their sister hotel, Preskil Island Resort (see separate review). Our brief view of Astroea Beach left us wanting more and so after assurances from Southern Cross that we would not be overbooked again, we decided to spend the remaining 5 nights of our Mauritius holiday here. Accommodation We booked a 2 bedroom bungalow and were allocated 205 which has a direct sea view and easy access to beach. It looks like rooms have been spruced up with comfy, but firm beds and a newish sofa in the lounge. There is a mini bar fridge, included on the all inclusive package (beer and soft drinks topped up daily). The bathroom had a new loo and washbasin but the tiles seem to be have been part painted in emulsion by a small child or visually impaired person. The grouting is pretty grim too. The electric shower is an instant Triton heater so water pressure is compromised . There is no hot water into the bungalow so I had to boil the kettle in order to shave in the wash basin, but this was no real hassle. There was an air conditioner in each bedroom which was effective, albeit noisy. Despite some poor decoration in the bathroom, everything was kept spotlessly clean. Food and Beverage We loved the small, part-open restaurant directly above the beach. Breakfast had a selection of fruit, cereal, pastries, bread etc with a toaster for the bread. There was a bean coffee machine if you wanted something different to the filter coffee and tea was served in a teapot, essential for us Brits. There was a number of hot items for order including great omelettes, eggs, sausage (chicken), bacon and crepes. Lunch was a good choice menu of salads, pasta, burger, fish and paninis. The choice of all-inclusive items was more limited and did not seem to have a logic as to why they were included or not, but we loved the fish “burger” which was actually a large fillet of sea bream. Dinner was 3 courses with a choice of 2 items for each course, which you selected at breakfast time. This was absolutely fine by us and avoided food waste. All food was freshly prepared (with love) and cooked to order from the tiny kitchen, so this could take time, which was absolutely no problem when you had the amazing view and you are on holiday. The all inclusive drinks were good for the price point. The wine was Cape Bay South African which was perfectly OK. Phoenix lager was on draft and there was even large glasses (0.6l). Double measures of spirits were no problem on request and there was a selection of cocktails. You signed for drinks and your meals at the end of each session. Beach and grounds Stu

We visited Le Peninsula in October and had a wonderful stay. We were truely able to relax and unwind with picture perfect beach views. The staff was friendly, room clean and the food good. We had a fantastic stay and would love to visit this piece of paradise again. We had a wonderful driver during our time there, Mr Ritesh Gaungoo whom we could highly recommend. He went above and beyond to meet our needs regarding places we wanted to see and introduced us to the local culture, always ensuring we were safe and well taken care off. He even worked longer hours than usual to work in all the tourist spots we wanted to visit. Thanks again Ritesh!

We have just spent nine days at the Sunrise Attitude and I could not recommend it more highly. We arrived first thing in the morning after travelling for 24 hours and were greeted at the gate with cold drinks. Our luggage was taken straight to a secure room, we were shown to the breakfast buffet and then taken to a well equipped shower/changing room so that we could start our holiday immediately. I would recommend having a small bag packed with everything you need. Check in wasn’t until 1400 but our room was ready much earlier and this was greatly appreciated. We had a partial sea view room which was above one of the swim up rooms. The room was spacious and had everything we needed, a large comfortable bed with a mattress topper, a powerful shower and a nice balcony. We visited the lovely ladies in the bulk shop every day to get supplies of freshly ground coffee, local vanilla tea, cold drinks and snacks for our room. The staff at the hotel were the friendliest and most helpful of anywhere we have ever stayed. They made the trip really special. They could not do enough to ensure that we were happy and had everything we needed each day. I would have loved to be able to thank everyone individually but there were so many people that we met each day, from every team, that we loved chatting with. We were ‘All Inclusive’ and were really pleased we chose this option. The choice of food and drinks was so extensive that it never occurred to us to order anything supplemented. We enjoyed the juices, mocktails and cocktails at the bars, we loved having drinks at the bar in the pool on hot afternoons and the cold drinks from the cart by the beach were very welcome. The local lychee rosé wine was delicious with our evening meals. The food is superb and really made our trip. We enjoyed the breakfast buffets of fresh fruit, cereals, hot and cold foods. Curry for breakfast was a real novelty for us! We will particularly miss the vegan pancakes with banana jam. Where we ate lunch depended on what activities we had planned during the day but all options were great - the buffet at The Social House, the menu at the Papaya Bar and the street food at Taba J (fantastic!) The evening meals were excellent. An extensive buffet at The Market with lots of fish and vegan options. We ate at the Kot Nou twice and were really pleased we were able to try the traditional Mauritian dishes- delicious! Our favourite option was the tapas at The Social House and we ate here three times. Both the Kot Nou and The Social House need to be booked at least 24 hours in advance but availability was never a problem for us. There are lots of activities available for anyone who wants to participate. We enjoyed yoga, tai chi, meditation and Secret Sunrise. Our favourite was the glass bottomed boat and afternoon snorkelling trip that we did many times. We had full body massages at the Spa at the beginning of our stay and this was a great way to relax, unwind and recover from our journe

We would like to thank the managing team and all his staff including the reception team, housekeeping and the restaurant personnel for their exceptional hospitality and assistance. All the hotel staff went above and beyond to make our stay a very comfortable one. A special thanks to the restaurant team who attended to all our requests without hesitation. We would like to make some positive suggestions for senior citizens and handicapped person. There should be more accessible rooms for wheelchair, available for them. The concrete pathway near the restaurant could be extended up to the sea-side where the senior citizens and those on wheelchair can enjoy the scenic view of the sea.

We have been to Anahita 3 times now and the reason we keep going back is the entire team are amazing and look after their guests with so much care. The facilities are fantastic - the dining options, the golf courses, the beaches. The accommodation is very spacious and comfortable. Any issues that arise are resolved immediately by the hotel. These and many factors make Anahita more special than anywhere else.

Semasa Festival Musim Bunga, 6 sekeluarga menginap selama 5 malam dan ia berasa hebat! Tak sanggup nak pergi! Sarapan pagi kaya, anda juga boleh memberi makan ikan sambil makan (ikan laut yang cantik yang hanya boleh dilihat dengan snorkeling), memberi makan burung (lihat sekurang-kurangnya tiga jenis burung), pemandangan yang indah, pengalaman bermain golf percuma, perjalanan bot kaca ke dan dari rusa sepanjang penginapan anda di Pulau, bilik rekreasi, memerhati kura-kura gajah, berbasikal, menaiki bot dasar kaca ke dan dari tebing bertentangan ... Saya juga secara tidak sengaja menjumpai banyak pokok mangga dan pokok Sakyamuni. Penghijauan seluruh hotel adalah indah, dan ada yang tinggal dalam bonsai yang besar Perasaan di syurga mutlak di bumi!
