Outrigger Mauritius Beach Resort Reviews

The best part of the hotel is the lagoon in front of the hotel - if you are into snorkelling. When the tide is high you can see a lot. But you should bring your own mask, snorket, fins, unless you are willing to pay 12 Euros per hour for a set. The property is sprawling. Lots of pleasant walking around. Two restaurants, with the By the Water one much better than Mercado (buffet). Book it for all night right away when you arrive. There are 180 rooms in the hotel and the By the Water restaurant takes about 50 (my guess) guests per night. This also means that there are long waits during dinner (easily 2-hour sessions). Rooms show their age but are still good. Keep light off in the evening; otherwise there will be mosquitos. Keep any food away from the room; otherwise you can have a visitor (a mouse). We were in a larger room with access to the Plantation where it is possible to have breakfast, snacks, and a semi-private pool. But this costs extra, and I am now not sure if it is worth it. There are some water activities, but they are limited either by the way the beach is (kayak) or how often they are run (snorklering and glass bottom boat trips). The pool is nice. Overall, a very good stay for 4 nights. But check when you are going. We paid a lot because it was over the New Year. We had a breakfast/dinner package, and even with that, we had to pay an extra 80 euros per head for the New Year's dinner (not including wine). New Years activities were good: a live band, DJ, some dancing, and a fire-swallowing show, plus HUGE 5-minute-long fireworks over the ocean.

The resort is very nice, the location is perfect. However, when we first arrived the water wasn't working. It was then fixed but it looks a yellowy colour. Insect repellent doesnt seem to be working in the room ( its a plug in one) the lady sprayed the room on day one which worked but apparantly they have run out of it. We had an early start and the breakfast in the lounge was our only option, the bread/ croissant were roxk hard and dry. Other then that the usual breakfast is ok. I would recommend getting the edge water reservation for dinner the good is better then the Mercardo. We got half board but the catch is that ypu have to pay for drinks and water, which you obviously can't eat the food without, we came for are honeymoon and expected it to be included not having to pay extra for drinks. Lastly we found a waiter who was amazing and has sorted us out this trip, his name is Muzammal, he has literally made it amazing at the outrigger!

Check in by Krishna was very cold & not welcoming. Surprised that this individual is allowed to check guests in. Cold , no smile, rushed, unpleasant. I was not done finishing my welcome drink and he was in a rush to bring us to our room. Rod, front desk manager, nice & welcoming. Ensures guests are happy. Resort: older resort in need of renovation. Reminded me of cuban resorts. Old furniture, dated AC but blows nice cold air. Generous room space. Check out: unfortunately got krishna again while checking out. This gentlemen needs to quit his job. I was speaking in english and he continuously answered back in creole. I had to tell him if knows how to speak in english as my wife does not speak Creole. Bad bad service. Geraldine - good service, polite, welcoming.

In December 2021, we were on holiday at this hotel. Even then, everything was quite old, the hotel needed renovation. But the food was normal, more or less clean and we were satisfied with a few days of stay. This time we were there for 4 days. Nothing has changed, the hotel has become completely old. The territory and good dinners in the restaurant on the beach save the day. Breakfast in the dining room is terrible, the tables and dishes are dirty, the food is bad. The cleaning of the rooms is so-so, it seems to be nothing, but dirt remains everywhere. The room was promised to be 63 meters, I personally measured it - at most 35. The hotel, thanks to "skillful management", has turned from 5 stars to 3 stars at most. An obvious problem with the leadership and management. I will never set foot here again. I do not recommend it.

Today was great, the service was very satisfactory. Clean. Very good, the room was quite nice. It felt very comfortable. The experience was very good, and we arrived early and arranged a rest area.

A comfortable hotel for both families and couples. There are entertainments that are free for guests: sea, children's. The food is good. The only thing is that the bar is noisy until 11 pm and you can often hear your neighbors
