SO Sofitel Mauritius

We really enjoyed and appreciated the peace, quiet and beautiful surroundings here. The rooms are nestled within a large, park-like area filled with the most beautiful exotic trees, plants and flowers, and birdsong is all around. The food here is excellent and has something for everyone, and every evening there were different specialties which we really enjoyed. The friendly staff were always ready to help, give advice and information and we often had long, funny and interesting chats with them. Although there are too many people to name, special mention and heartfelt thanks go to Raj, who always found time for us and who we had many great conversations with ( he is also a football expert!) He was always eager to help us with any questions or issues that we had. Special thanks also go to Stefanie, who was so friendly and helpful and with whom we also had a few great chats. One real highlight was a taxi trip we had with the amazing Anil : we were with him all day and he showed us a number of fantastic places and told us so much interesting information about everywhere we went. His anecdotes, personal stories and especially background information and history about the places brought everything to life and created a vivid picture and unforgettable impressions. All in all, we had a great and relaxing time here - thanks to all here!

Good afternoon. I would like to leave a review. We stayed at this hotel, we liked everything very much, the staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms are cleaned every day, everything is very clean. Also the location of the beach is very close to the rooms. There are buggies on site that will take you to any place on the hotel grounds. There is a separate parking lot where you can leave your car and, if necessary, order a taxi. The food at the hotel is varied and very tasty. We will definitely come back here more than once

We came for 2 nights and the weather was very windy and even rained on the last day but we loved the hotel and the rooms and the food. The rooms are just really comfortable and spacious and relaxing. We have had a nice welcome and service from the staff all around. The food as well was really good with different choices in the buffet. All in all a wholesome experience. Not to mention the play area for kids. Our little one had fun on the slides and the sand pit.

If you want to get a good trustworthy service on the island, this isn’t the place. However, if you go without expectations only for the location, it is good. For what you pay, housekeeping and buggy service is 1( after waiting for 15 minutes at the parking, the buggy that came denied to take us saying he was never informed while the security at the entrance said he informed twice 🤷‍♀️; housekeeping is a 0-1 ( no towels were replaced, no hand towels kept even after informing the duty manager Crisen; after calling reception/concierge on 9, you will get your request if you’re lucky or only after you call them 5-6 times or never); swimming pool was a 1 as it was cleaned on 1 of the 3 days that we stayed- it was full of plant/insect litter and algae on 2 days; food options and food service is a 1-2;, no kids activities if a minimum number of kids (5 we were told) aren’t there.

We spent 3 days in this hotel, fantastic experience! The complex is very big with lots of nature, trees, beaches and very clean and cosy. ||Food B/L/D, is also very good with different dinner-themes each night. ||Especially good experience with Raj who is responsible for personal comfort during the stay. ||Thank you!

It might have been a 5 star resort when It was built but it's definitely only a 3 star property now The room I booked was a garden view sea facing suite, yes it had a garden view and yes it was sea facing however the room they gave us was 200m from the sea!, in fact it would have been difficult to get any further away and still been in the so Sofitel The very friendly consiege who took us to the room explained that as the hotel is French the TV only shows programmes in French! The showers are outside the room, which us an interesting experience when it is raining and the first morning I had to stand and wait 20 minutes for some hot water, when none arrived i had to dry get dressed and walk to reception 5 minutes away because no one was answering the phone, the maintainance man arrived with one of the huge number of managers they have and miraculously the hot water appeared immediately, (funny how turning the tap on out in the road has that effect,) however the saga goes on when the shower either took your skin off or was freezing cold, The sun beds are passable and a decent amount of them, but that might be because the place was only 6o% occupied The only redeeming thing about this resort is the bar and the food they offer We asked to be moved to another room but at only 60% full they didn't have another one they could move us to. Until I said we were leaving on day 2 so wanted a refund for day 3, then by some miracle a suite next to the sea became available because they had a cancellation, well they got another cancellation then and we left, still waiting for the refund Lots of choice of resort, so don't get your hopes up if you book this one
