Hotels near Anaya Residance, Flic en Flac

I don't know what to say, except THANK YOU to those who welcomed us with open arms in this modest residence but at the same time full of everything you need. The wifi worked perfectly (even if we didn't care much since we were on vacation and not for work), television worked but never watched, everything was always clean, breakfast not very variable but honestly had everything you needed to start the day with strength. The boy who welcomed us, remained in our hearts to the point that we were all sad to leave and he said goodbye to us from the taxi with infinite sweetness. I highly recommend it as a solution to be able to tour the island well and be independent. The pool was wonderful, but with that sea we never swam in it. The beach is a 10 minute walk away as is the supermarket.

There are four star hotels, five star hotels and, if you believe the hype of the Emirates Palace in the UAE, even seven star hotels but in my opinion few match La Pirogue. It’s not all glitz, glass, chrome or smoke and mirrors but something very special that it has successfully held onto since its opening in 1976. That something is delivered in spades by La Pirogue as a charming, extremely comfortable, beautifully appointed, beach side paradise that exudes all the traditional aspects of Mauritius. The architecture, the accommodation, the food and most importantly the people who work there together have made our holiday so special and memorable. We had the standard garden bungalow which was quiet, very comfortable and kept impeccably clean and tidy by our housekeeping lady Marianna. It had everything you need for some very comfortable and long sleeps although we tended to set our alarm quite early to walk on the very long, clean, sandy beach. Each early morning walk was followed by a lovely breakfast buffet which offered every type of breakfast you could reasonably think of with eggs and noodle dishes being made fresh to order. Two beachside restaurants offer very tasty food with the choice of dishes enough to tide you over to the evening buffet. Each evening the buffet loosely followed a geographic theme with the very extensive choice of dishes provided to a high standard. Through these journeys of the world cuisines the highlights for us were the Mauritian and Chinese nights. The beach, the very extensive hotel grounds and the beautiful pool area are maintained to a high standard by a hard working team of gardeners. So there in a nutshell you have my thoughts on the hotel itself. However, none of the above would be possible without the team of people who work tirelessly day and night to ensure that the hotel delivers what is promised as you first enter the grounds. In all our travels around the world for business and holidays we have never been so privileged to have been treated the way we have over the last two weeks. To say they’re friendly is an understatement. Every one greets you with a smile and a chat that is not at all forced but a natural reaction to the way the hotel is run as (cliched I know) a very big, happy family. With four hundred plus members of staff it’s impossible to mention all of them but those we met that delivered above and beyond expectations were Sophie, Wendy, Amelia and Suman (Coconut Café), Kamla, Lobin, Suresh, Augun, Prayag, Ravin, Ajay (Wolmar) and of course the chefs, Diksha, Mary Jane and Ketia and last but not least the captains of the kitchen Vik and Vikram. I hope I spelled all the names correctly.

I arrived late at night and all the staff are friendly and welcoming. It is good for a honeymoon, but it is also good for a family trip. I visited with my wife on a family trip. It doesn't seem like the atmosphere you think of when you come for a honeymoon, but it is recommended if you don't care too much about room condition. I haven't tried other hotels or resorts, but the food at Sugar Beach is generally good. It's on the west side where you can see the sunset, so it takes about an hour from the airport. Casella, Chamarel, and Le Mont can all be reached within 30 minutes.

During this trip to Mauritius, I stayed in a total of 5 hotels, including the popular Prince Hotel and LUX Hotel Mont Monas, but the one with the best overall experience was the cheapest. Of course, its hardware facilities are not comparable to the first two. Compare. The hotel restaurant’s resident kittens are a big part of this. I hope the hotel can treat these kittens well.

The hotel was not what i expected from a 5 star. I believe that they are going to do renovations this year. I had half board and wanted to upgrade to all inclusive but they don’t offer all inclusive had I known this before, I wouldn’t have book at this hotel. So full board was and extra Rs8000 and you could only have 2 glasses of wine or two beers included. I can’t understand how the hotel can’t see that this encourages guests to purchase alcohol outside of the hotel. Anyways the bar staff were exceptional in making you feel welcome and really spoilt my daughter for her birthday. One in particular named Sahil. This guy is truly a diamond in the rough. Our time at the hotel was rainy weather but we still enjoyed it with people like Sahil around. Thank you!

This time I stayed at the two hotels of Lishi Mona and Lishi Mei'an. The style is still quite different. The sand of Mona is yellowish and very slightly. The sand on the Mei'an is slightly whiter and thinner. Be careful. The walk is still acceptable; the rooms are larger and more modern; the sea view is better for Mount Mona. Sitting in the seaside is very eye-catching. After a day, the hotel is too lazy to move. If you are chasing dolphins, it is also near the Mount Mona. The pool and meals are not as good as the US shore.

Mauritius has lived here twice, and their restaurants are open to the public. Local lawyers say that because they are run by French bosses, although other aspects are common, the quality of food is definitely one of the best in the country, and many locals will also dine on weekends. The quality of the cuisine is better than those of the higher-end hotels and resorts that are far away. This time, I ate a Japanese beef steak with a discount. My friend was smashed, the meat was very old, the hotel was redone and the service was very good! There is no high-class beach in the capital of Port Louis, but if you are on a business trip, living in this area is very good.

The restaurant is average, and it is not suitable to like lively and popular Chinese people, so there may be more white customers in Europe and the United States, but we have to praise the service of the hotel. We caught up with the outing during the unusual period, and we have not heard of the outbreak of the new crown. As a result, the situation was pooping two days later. By the last day of our stay, I wanted to return to China. The situation was very serious. I walked to several pharmacies and didn't buy medical masks. So I tried to find a doctor's office. The staff's English is also relatively general. It should be mainly French. We communicated very poorly for a long time. The male doctors in the infirmary were older and they helped us call and ask which pharmacy had a mask. After confirming that they did not have one, they wrote it. Feng letter to the nurse station of the respiratory department of the local hospital, let us go to wear a mask, thank you very much for the upright male doctor and the local doctor. We went to the hospital for a half-day tour by car and got 12 valuable medical masks. After returning to the child with basic protection, I would like to thank the two local serious but friendly black doctors.

We stayed two nights at Ocean Creeks Hotel, paying Rs39,000 for an all-inclusive package, and it was not worth it. At check-in, there was no bedsheet on the bunk bed. Towels smelled bad, and the bed mattress was broken on one side. Saturday morning, a loud blower disrupted breakfast, and our room wasn’t cleaned by 3 PM. The hotel was noisy and overcrowded due to day pass clients, ruining the relaxing atmosphere. We asked for hot chocolate at the bar twice, but only the manager, Brian, eventually got it for us. Poor selection of cocktails in the all inclusive selection. In the afternoon, there was no electricity or air conditioning in our room. Additionally, the minibar wasn’t refilled, and we had to ask reception. After all these issues, we decided to check out early at 9 AM on Sunday and skip the inclusive lunch as we had a bad night. We asked the supervisor if they could deduct the lunch from our Rs3,000 checkout bill. To our surprise, they only offered a Rs1,000 deduction, which we refused. We paid the full amount and left feeling frustrated and confused about how lightly our complaints were taken. The poor management and service make this hotel a definite no-go. We do not recommend it and won’t be coming back.
