The staff were very pleasant and always helpful. The room was as depicted - spacious and comfortable. It was great to have a choice between a very effective AC or overhead fan. Mon Choisy beach was within easy walking distance and the bus stops are even closer with cheap fares and easy access to Grand Baie and beyond. There are also several restaurants/cafes within walking distance.

We had a very fun stay at this guesthouse. Our room was nice and comfy and got cleaned every day. The breakfast tasted good and the beach is just 5 minutes away. But especially the staff was great, they helped us with every question we had, were always friendly and in a good mood and tried to make our days there special.

Mañana is the right word for this hotel. Everything moves in a slow phase since they are understaffed. Plan ahead when you order drinks or food. Cosy place and nothing wrong with the rooms. Don't accept card payments and you need a Taxi to closest ATM.

Bon hotel. Nous avons apprécié la convivialité des personnes a l'accueil et du chef cuisinier. Avant notre départ, le propriétaire de l'hôtel a même offert une crêpe a nos enfants. Nous avons pu profiter des palmes, transat et parasol de l'hotel prêté gracieusement. Merci !
