Best hotel ever!
The Westin turtle bay was the best! Almost didn’t end up leaving the property it was that good. From the food, to the room, to the staff! It was all fantastic. Riya was such an amazing help my whole stay. I felt welcome everywhere I went. The spa was sooo lovely. Can’t wait to plan my next trip!
Excellent time had by all
We had a fabulous time at this resort. Lovely rooms, plenty of space around the pool and beach areas and very good eating choices. We used all the à la carte restaurants and had an excellent experience in them all but found the Tepanyaki experience was our favorite. The staff were excellent , always helpful and friendly. Big thanks to, in no particular order, Keshav, Yeshna and Soonita and the guys in the Retreat bar who we felt went above and beyond to make our trip special. Well done!! And please don’t forget a small tip in this part of the world goes a long way.

Lunch at Beach Grill
I stayed at the Westin Mauritius for a week in June 2026 and had an amazing experience. During my stay, I visited the Beach Grill restaurant, and the food was so good that we ended up going back several times.
The atmosphere was fantastic, and what really made each visit special was the exceptional service from the staff. A big thank you to Ratan, Vimal, Chef Kabir and the entire kitchen team, Manisha, Levi, and Abishek for their warm hospitality and outstanding service. You all made every meal memorable.
I highly recommend the Beach Grill to anyone staying at the Westin Mauritius. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
Great resort with wonderful experience and staff
Had a great stay at Westin Turtle bay resort Mauritius. The resort is amazing. Staff go above and beyond in making the stay very special. Our check in was very smooth with Sanjana helping us and paid special attention to detail, took care in explaining all facilities and sorted everything we needed during our stay. All staff have a lovely way of saying thank you and very polite. The house keeping team are very kind and attentive. Especially our room housing keeper Varousha went above and beyond with her caring work with extra special small notes to make each day refreshing! Restaurant team especially Pradeep and his team from Kangan were very attentive and looked after us. Food in all areas was very good with lots of variety for all. The bar team, especially Adam and his team in the retreat bar were brilliant , catered to our needs and made our special occasion even more special. Thank you to all the team. Great place to stay. Our wonderful experience was made extra special with the lovely staff and team. Thank you once again.
Wonderful holiday at Westin Hotel
A very welcoming moment from all the staffs, from their good morning gestures, granting style till the end of the day, they were amazingly nice & supportive. It has a beautiful room and environment, very peaceful. The sunset view, the harbour view and the hotel location were a wonder. The whole stay bring high value and memorable situation to us. The kids were delighted with the activities, kids corners and different games. Mostly, as usual, the swimming pool. A warm thanks to the whole staff, especially the Manager Pradeep, Mr. Avinesh, Ms. Dristy, Drishty , Chef Attaphone, Mrs. Kavita.
