Skvělá nabídka vyžití- loďka s proskleným dnem, šnorchlování, ping pong, volejbal, kajaky, petangue, posilovna... vše v
Pros:

Krásný resort s bazénem, sportovním vyžitím, moře s korály a bohatým mořským životem už metr od břehu, skvělé na šnorchlování, každý večer živá hudba, tanec, nebo ohnivá show, čisto, spousta lehátek, nádherná zahrada, milý personál.

Cons:

Nebylo co vytknout, rádi cestujeme a poznáváme nová místa, po třech dnech měníme ubytování, ale tady jsme si 2xpobyt prodlužovali a zůstali na celou dovolenou. Máme srovnání s desítkami ubytování na Mauriciu, ale tihle je zatím bezkonkurenční za tu cenu.

A relaxing and comfortable stay with great food and service.
Pros:

The rooms are spacious, clean, and very comfortable, many with beautiful ocean views and large bathrooms. The beach is scenic and peaceful, though parts are rocky, so it’s better for relaxing and water activities than long swims. Food quality is high, with a good variety of cuisines, and the à la carte restaurants stand out more than the buffet. Overall, it’s a great choice for a calm, well-serviced stay with excellent dining.

Cons:

The beach is quite rocky in places, which makes swimming less enjoyable compared to other beaches in Mauritius. Some areas of the resort and rooms feel slightly dated and could use better maintenance. The buffet can feel repetitive after a few days, and à la carte restaurants require advance reservations, which isn’t always convenient.
