Ottima struttura
Pros:

La struttura è ben posizionata e fronte mare, con uno splendido ristorante che affaccia direttamente sulla spiaggia. Gran parte dello staff è cordiale e simpatico. Il punto forte, oltre la vista sull’oceano, è il ristorante che serve ottime pietanze con ingredienti freschi e di qualità; si mangia davvero bene.

Cons:

Una piccolissima parte dello staff al Desk ha a volte modi un po’ bruschi o poco professionali, o sembra ti stiano facendo un favore. Questo non riguarda nella maniera più assoluta lo staff che serve al ristorante che è squisito.
Le stanze potrebbero beneficiare di un refresh.

Schönes, kleines Hotel mit sehr, sehr nettem Personal in phantastischer Lage am Meer.
Pros:

Die Zimmer sind sehr schön eingerichtet und komfortabel.
Wir hatten ein Zimmer im 1. Stock mit Meerblick. Wir sahen über das Restaurant und die Sonnenschirme hinweg auf das Meer. Eine grandiose Aussicht.
Durch ein kleines Tor hat man direkten zum wunderschönen Sandstrand.
Zwischen den vielen kleinen Booten kann man wunderbar im warmen und flachen Wasser schwimmen.
Ebenfalls gibt es ein tolles Schwimmbad.
Das Frühstück war sehr lecker.
Ein kleiner Verbesserungsvorschlag: Der Cappuccino könnte auch im Preis enthalten sein. War leider nicht der Fall.
Das Dinner am Abend war auch sehr komfortabel und hervorragend angerichtet und sehr, sehr lecker.
Am Strand und aus dem Zimmer kann man wunderbar den Sonnenuntergang genießen.
Grüße an das nette Team des Hauses, insbesondere an Tracy.
Irgendwann werden wir uns wiedersehen auf Mauritius, und dann in diesem Hause!

Cons:

Cappuccino, wie oben erwähnt, könnte im Preis enthalten sein.

Pros:

The Bay is this kind of gem that you actually prefer no one else to discover ... so that you still have a chance to secure some accommodation when you next plan to visit. Its location, the staff, the quality of the food, etc you name it! This property delivered consistently in all aspects better than many five star properties would.

Cons:

That there was no availability to prolong our stay for a second time! -;)

2 semaines de bonheur
Pros:

Notre séjour de 2 semaines a été parfait. L’emplacement est très bien ainsi que l’accès à la plage. Merci à TOUT le staff de l’hôtel & restaurant. Tout le monde est adorable, gentil et attentifs. Merci à Emilie de nous avoir fait d’excellentes recommandations sur l’île et surtout d’avoir pris le temps. Merci à Tracy pour sa gentillesse et à Gilda au restaurant.

Si vous souhaitez réservez des activités en mer, Jack et Sparrow sont là pour vous faire découvrir les dauphins. Le duo de choc pour l’océan. La nourriture au restaurant est excellente avec les suggestions chaque jour.

Encore merci à tout le monde d’avoir rendu notre séjour formidable.

Cons:

Peut être des suggestions également au petit déjeuner. Lors d’un long séjour, la carte du petit-déjeuner peut être un peu répétitive.

Pros:

This little gem exceeded all of our expectations.

From its exceptional location directly on a perfect stretch of powder white sand beach over the quality of the food/drinks and the friendliness of the team to the overall facilities. Officially, this property is rated three star, but it can effortlessly compete with properties in higher categories.

The property is located within walking distance from well-stocked supermarkets (London Way and Monoprix), the popular Sketch cafe and several excellent restaurants in case a change of scene/surroundings is desired.

Pros:

Super schöne Lage. Toller Pool, wenig Zimmer und herrliche Location für Frühstück und Abendessen.

Cons:

Die Matratze war extrem hart. Leider hatte ich jeden Morgen Rückenschmerzen.
In der Nachbarschaft hat es viele Hunde, die teilweise am Morgen sehr früh auf sich aufmerksam machen.
