Laguna Beach Hotel & Spa

This resort claims to provide lots of free activities but when we went to the activities hut, the next boat trip to the island was fully booked because the boat can only take 12/trip and goes only 3 trips/week and the hotel accommodates so many wanting to go, and we were told that the kayaks and paddle boats could only be used within a tiny roped-off area. So the main activity is sitting around the pool. If you want to go on the boat trip, you will need to stay here for more than a week. The rooms and the dinners are only okay but the breakfast provided was good.

Just got home from our holiday in Mauritius and stayed at the Laguna beach hotel which has been a great experience beautiful views from the pool area great food and great service we also met the DJ/entertainer there in kushal ganeshe who is fantastic comes along and chats with you helps you and gives you good information about the island and plays some great music at night he's also become a friend of ours and when we visit again will meet up with so 5 stars for this man and this holiday

Tout le personnel est très accueillant et aux petits soins ( en particulier à la réception et les 2 super serveuses qui font les cocktails ) Les chambres sont bien, spacieuses, et très bien nettoyées tous les jours. ( ça manque d'insonorisation surtout pour les "soirées dj" si on est pas dans le mood mais ça ne dure pas très tard donc ça ne nous a pas dérangé plus que ça. ) Les buffets sont plutot bien avec pas mal de variété et de renouvellement. On peut éventuellement reprocher le système de navette gratuite pour l'île au cerfs, qui a l'air plus un mythe qu'un service offert. ( pas de disponibilités, compliqué de trouver les infos, panneau "je reviens dans 5minutes" toute la journée, réservation à faire plus de 4jours à l'avance, etc. ) Le personnel semble faire des horaires assez énormes en gardant toujours le sourire pour la plupart. admirable.

Très beaux extérieurs: magnifique piscine, très jolie plage. L'intérieur peut parfois être un peu plus vieillot parfois, et notre chambre n'était vraiment pas très grande. Personnel toujours charmant, on s'y sent bien. C'est moins guindé que dans certains hôtels. Par contre, c'est assez isolé. C'est parfait si vous restez à l'hôtel, plus difficile d'accès si vous voulez vadrouiller en voiture. On a apprécié la proximité des locaux, ce qui nous a changé des plages réservées aux touristes de l'hôtel précédent.

Très bel hôtel avec une vue magnifique, je suis partie avec ma fille de 13ans. La chambre était propre avec une belle vue sur l océan . La restauration de l hôtel n'est pas satisfaisante, car la chaîne du froid n'est pas respectée, c'est vraiment dommage, le choix des plats est très moyen également, on est pas difficile mais nous sommes déçue de la restauration, pas vraiment de produits locaux et surtout le manque sanitaire par rapport a la chaîne du froid, vraiment dommage, n emportez pas de laxatif vous irez au wc ... Sinon point fort les bouteilles d eau sont a volonté. Si vous souhaitez faire des excursions privilégiées avec un hôte d exception vous pouvez contacter Sailesh qui est a côté de l hôtel, c'est un ami et c'est un ange gardien qui si vous le souhaitez vous fera découvrir Maurice en toute simplicité.

Laguna beach and spa hotel is most definitely not a 3 star hotel, I would give it a 2 at most. The best part of the hotel are the staff who are very friendly and keen to help. May be a tad too keen in the dining area , as soon as your plates clean they are right at your table like a limpet clearing it away. Better than the tables being left unattended so can’t grumble too much but just don’t leave your table unattended with your food on it to pop to the loo else you’ll come back to it gone and the table relaid for new diners . The food is extremely “SAMEY” and not that much of a variety. If you’re looking for carb heaven then you won’t be disappointed as it’s all rice, pasta and a form of potato. The puddings are all mainly a minutes square of cake with a blob of cream on and each day it will have a slight different flavour. 1600 every day they do pancakes which are lovely. The hotel itself looks like it is in desperate need of an update and lick of paint. It has a very tired look to it and although the rooms are cleaned daily with clean linen and towels, the rooms just have a general dirty feel about them. It is supposedly a private beach for the hotel, however the locals walk down and spend their time fishing off the promanade , so it makes it have a busy and noisy feel to it rather than having that private quiet appeal as advertised. The beach itself is not very big and has the appearance of being a manmade beach as feels very gritty as though it’s more builders sand from b&q ( other builders merchants are available) The sea at this part is not your crystal clear waters as I was expecting , for that you’ll need to take a short boat trip where you will find a beach and small market town. The hotel itself works on a cash only system so be sure to take plenty of their currency to pay for any excursions you want to make with them as they work on a cash only system. Trips are around 7500 for 2 people The swimming pool is lovely with the right temperature for cooling down. Being all inclusive the bar is handy being centred in the middle by the pool, restaurant and entertainment. Entertainment wise they provided a display of their local dance in the evenings around 1900 hours which was lovely to watch. However throughout the day they have music playing majority of the day, way too loud and plays continuously until 23:00 hours. It’s like they are wanting to give that Ibiza , Benidorm vibe which just doesn’t work with the small complex as the music area is too close to the accommodation so no chance of having an early night or being able to go to your room for a spot of peace and quiet if needed. There is a wooden hut set just between the pool and beach area where you can book some trips out. Unfortunately due to cyclone garison we were unable to do all the trips we had booked but highly recommend the 9 island trip by taxi , the rum distillery was great if you like your rum, get to taste 11 shots of rum . Also the island tour by boat sounds amazing to
