The Oberoi Beach Resort, Mauritius

What an AMAZING experience! I celebrated a special birthday there and the staff went above and beyond to make it fantastic. They paid attention to every detail and they were all so nice. The food at all the restaurants was delicious and meeting the head chef and doing a cooking class with him enhanced the entire culinary experience. One of the best hotels I’ve booked and I will be back!

This place is truly amazing, rooms and services easily exceed the 5 stars resorts that you would expect in Mauritius and globally for that matter. We went there to celebrate our anniversary there and it was the right decision. Their staff are friendly, welcoming, professional and highly trained. The hospitality and services we received from one of the bartenders and the chief was unbelievable. They gave us the feeling that we are their only host. Similarly, the other guests were friendly and very respectable. The whole vibe over there was exceptional. In terms of food and drinks were top quality, I had there on of the best seafood dishes I ever tasted. Rooms are spacious and very clean, privacy are well considered. Definitely an amazing resort and a successful management team Wish them the best…

Best hotel I have ever stayed at! My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon here and could not have had a better experience - everything was perfect! The setting, the room, the food/ drinks, the team - everything was amazing!! Everyone at the Oberoi couldn't do enough to make our stay as memorable as possible. Special shout out to Natasha who was so kind to us and made our stay so special and to the team at 'On the Rocks', especially Aksay, where we had a number of outstanding meals! I can't wait to come back!

Been twice to the Oberoi and I still think this resort stands out in Mauritius. Nothing bothers me visually and I do feel I have escaped to some kind of hidden paradise! The service is outstanding, the food is great. It is never that busy compared to other resorts where there are a lot of people. Another compliment on the architecture of the Oberoi, it is really magical and comfortable

After my stay at The Oberoi Mauritius, I can truly say it is one of my favourite hotels in the world. This is due to a few things: 1. Outstanding customer service. The service here is a true depiction of "guest is God". You won't pass an employee without them bowing to you. They try to remember details like your room number, name and flight details, and they don't seem to ever tell guests "no". Though breakfast finishes at 10:30am, I've seen guests walk in later and still got to order off the menu. There are closing times for the gym and spa but once you ask they arrange for you to use the facilities outside the hours. 2. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and designed. I loved my individual bungalow with a private sun deck. The grounds are well maintained and adorned with trees and flowers which attract an array of birds. The whole concept of the hotel seems to be bringing nature indoors, with a private garden adjoining the bathroom for lots of natural light and big windows in the bedroom (the shades are also fully black-out so no need to worry about the sun waking you!). Natural materials are utilised everywhere and some of the public toilets have partial outdoor spaces. Though the hotel was pretty busy while we were there, there were so many different areas to relax that it did not feel crowded. There are lots of little spots to sit and be in nature as well. The architecture of the main pool is a work of art by itself. Many of the seating areas are designed with amazing views of the beach. 3. Their focus on convenience and the little details. There were so many touches that made my stay special - every time you sit at a sunbed, you are greeted a few minutes later with cold towels and iced water. As a water lover myself, I did not even need my travel bottle, as the rooms are always stocked with daily bedside water and there are water dispensers throughout the property. The beach bag and umbrellas for use during my stay were much appreciated! We celebrated an anniversary and they arranged a rose petal bath for our first night. They also add to the room a taste of local Mauritian snacks, lots of coffee and tea options and some fruit. The handwritten cards on check in and check out are very thoughtful! They seemed to always know when we left the room as that was when they would clean or do turn down service. 4. The free activities and events. Every day they have an array of activities organized including yoga, Tai chi and nature walks. Then they also have a special event each day such as a cooking class, stargazing or rum tasting. The quality of the event was top notch too! They also have lots of free water sports included, which is usually at an extra charge at these type of resorts. But because the grounds and seaside were so beautiful, I found myself hardly partaking in any of it for my five day stay! So definitely you can spend two weeks here and not get bored, particularly if you plan to tour around the country which has lots to offer. Overall, exceptional service from a world class hotel. Special mention to Yuvraj and Vedank who went out of their way to give great service at the bars, and Samanta from the spa. There are so many more names that stood out but unfortunately I don't remember them! A truly special hotel that deserves a stay at least once in your life.
