Shanti Maurice Resort & Spa

We returned to the resort for the second year, due to the fabulous time we had last year. There were minor hiccups but everything was sorted out seamlessly in the end. My experience of the spa this time around and specifically my massage therapist Yogesh was impeccable. He is a very intuitive therapist who is guided by what your body really needs. It was one of the best massages I have had in my life. And I don’t say that lightly. The ladies at the Kids club are amazing aswell. I wanted to specifically mention Jamillah- she was so great with our busy toddler son. He came home with a smile on his face everyday. She knew how to manage his energetic character well and her patience and care with him did not go unnoticed. The Rumshed team are also a great bunch of people. They proactively created a special evening for my husband and I on one of our many visits there. Food was great although I did miss a few of the dishes that were on last years menu. Cocktails are flavourful and definitely worth ordering if you have adventurous tastebuds. The reception staff are the sort of people that when you enter the reception area you already have a feel of how your holiday will go. They are warm, inviting and go above and beyond to ensure your stay is amazing and that you leave wanting to return again- which we will probably do for the third time. As mentioned there were a few minor hiccups that didn’t deserve a mention as these things sometimes do fall short when a hotel is at full capacity but it doesn’t deter us from returning for the third time. The food is great but after being here for as long as we did (10 days) you do crave for something different and unfamiliar. Also being a creature of habit I ordered the same meal every day for lunch and there were some consistency issues which I guess can be expected when dealing with multiple sous chefs. The boredom we experienced with the menu was the reason for the 4 star review but that being said our stay at as a long one and I’m sure with a shorter stay it would’ve felt more exciting. Christopher and Satish are also worth a mention. They saw to our needs while we were lazing away on the sunbeds at the beach. These guys always stop for a chat, always have smiles on their faces and are all around friendly warm professional and they both provide a top quality service. Definite keepers. The staff in general are warm and friendly and strive to go above and beyond to make your experience personable, to make your presence valued and to make your stay worth it. A round of applause to all of them. To all the staff (front runners and those that work behind the scenes) thank you for making our trip memorable. We keep returning because of all of you!

It was beyond my expectations for myself and mom, and I recommend this balinese massage. We had a nice time. The therapist was just fantastic., great person and very talented and specially thank you so much Mr Avinash, for sure will be back again.

Having been travelling and sightseeing for 2 weeks in South Africa we were looking for 6 nights of total relaxation and got exactly that at Shanti Maurice. It was no where near full, which probably helped, but the location and facilities couldn’t be faulted. The food was exceptional as was the service and a special mention to our butler Amal who looked after our every need. Happy to recommend this place
