This splendid resort is located in a peaceful spot in the historic Balaclava area, facing the idyllic Turtle Bay, a protected marine park on the north-west coast of the island of Mauritius. Natural tropical elements like local teak and lava rocks combined with contemporary design create the serene and elegant atmosphere that will surely leave unforgettable memories in the minds of the visitors. Whichever of the 15 exquisite villas spread along the spectacular beach they choose for their home away from home, guests will enjoy modern amenities and private balconies with fantastic view. Complete with a childrens' club, a SPA centre and an exquisite restaurant, the resort aims to satisfy all the needs and requirements of its patrons.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
The rooms were perfect for a family of 4 . The stay was made seamless by Mr Roshan who took care of pretty much everything for us.
We were there last month to celebrate our 50th anniversary. From arriving till we left, everyone made us feel special. Special thanks to Pradeep and his team for surprise at dinner for our anniversary. Also thank you to Riya, Alvin, Dravish, Navraaj, Dev, Lalini, Aarti, Downraj, Sanjeeva, Mithi and Rohit who made excellent Uttapam and Suraj at boat house and our glass bottom boat captain, was exemplary, had a lot of knowledge and was very concise whilst in charge of our trip. He knew the area of the sea he was covering very well.
Great welcoming, amazing service, as in Marriott we say above and beyond, this hotel and all the staff from management to service and front desk, plus the concierge, housekeeping, everyone make you feel special. We had surprises coming one after another.
You won’t be bored at this resort, there are daily activities that you can always attend.
They also have separated the adults swimming pool from family and kids.
Another beautiful thing is that if you wake up a bit early you may see some dolphins in distance.
