Hotel RIU a Mauritius

Era bello stare lì, ma c'era un hiccup in un punto, abbiamo prenotato il posto per avere accesso alla sauna e al jacuzzi e è stato chiuso durante il nostro soggiorno senza notifica, quindi invece abbiamo deciso di avere un bagno caldo ma l'acqua dal bagno era Giallo... che diceva... ci hanno cambiato le stanze, ci hanno anche dato una bottiglia di champagne e una sessione di massaggio gratuita di 50 minuti... comunque, era un bel posto, il cibo era fantastico e bellissimo ambiente!

This is a wonderful resort, on a fantastic island, in a stunning location. We have done a lot of travelling and this holiday surpassed all expectation. We liked the remoteness of the location as we were there to relax but did venture out for 2 day trips. The Chamarel rum distillery is great. We found the staff couldn't do more to help, friendly, chatty and helpful (easily sorting an issue with our room and getting us moved). The food was absolutely faultless, the buffet can't be beaten (fresh fish, meat, veg and great global dishes) but we also had a superb meal at the Asian and Indian. The whole set up made it all made it an effortless holiday. If you miss breakfast you can get a coffee and pastry/fruit/yogurt at the coffee bar from 10am - equally if you miss lunch they've got snacks and Pepe's grill stays open till later. The rooms are spacious and perfectly cleaned everyday and have all the amenities you need. The beds are comfy and huge. The drinks offer is great. I have been to some all inclusive and been offered low quality spirits and poor wine but both were good with a great range of cocktails. Bottles of different wine started at £20 which is great value. We didn't manage to conquer the app but it's only needed for 2 restaurants in the adult only bit and reception booked us the dinner we wanted in the Asian restaurant. The buffet however wins out every time for food offering and is the only option for sitting outside. We found the strong breeze very welcoming (around the pool it is more sheltered) as it was 32 every day. It is great to watch the kite surfers etc out on the water. The sea was fine to swim in everyday apart from one day when it was a bit choppy so we walked round the corner into the sheltered side. Take wet shoes if you want to snorkel as it is a bit rocky/coral on your way in.
