Four Seasons Resort Mauritius at Anahita

We have just spent a week at this Four Seasons in Mauritius (this is our 4th stay at a Four Seasons in the last 12 months) which was mostly excellent with a few buts… The good stuff:- The villa was in a beautiful location, looking out to the Indian Ocean, very large with 2 very comfy beds. It was very quiet with a plunge pool and sun beds, very secluded. Staff are lovely, very helpful, smiley and friendly. Pool was good. One highlight was the free boat trip to Isle de Cerf 10 minutes away, where Four Seasons have a private bit of the outstanding beach, with a bar/restaurant/sunbeds/toilets…all excellent, definitely make the effort to go if you’re staying here, it’s really worth it. I Paddle boarded every day from the beach, free for guests, it was quite windy whilst I was there so couldn’t go far, but still enjoyed it. Upper Cut restaurant, good for steak Acquapazza, melanzanna and pasta good Not quite so good stuff:- The main reason I couldn’t give this stay 5 stars, was the food, it was so inconsistent. Some was excellent: Tuna tataki, beef tartar, beef burger all very good, but somethings were not good at all: lentil soup, club sandwich, a prawn dish we had in Bambou restaurant, I found the yoghurt very strange at breakfast, it had a filmy,skin on the top. Some other dishes were very average. Quite a lot of birds around at breakfast, if you left the table you would come back to find birds eating whatever you had left. Sometimes had to wait a long time for a buggy, 30 minutes when we were checking out The internet was very slow, I had planned a Zoom meeting but it wasn’t good enough for that. Finally, I had to call maintenance 4 times for small but irritating things in the room, the safe wasn’t working, the curtain fell down, the pedal bin in the toilet wasn’t working and the control for the plug in the bath kept falling off. I know they are closing for a refurbishment soon, but we are still paying full price, so expect full service.

Fantastic hotel with attentive and lovely staff. Stunning setting, great beach, restaurants, bar, cafe. A true tropical feel with all the native plants surrounding the hotel. Here you can play golf, relax or embark on a number of activities. High price range.

You want to visit here! The resort is spacious and spectacular. Your choice of bungalow facing the ocean or the gardens. Magnificent infiniti pool that borders on a beautiful beach. Great food options from casual, to Italian, Indian, Steak, Asian or local fish on the beach. The food service team executes flawlessly. The rooms are large and airy. The bathrooms stocked and spacious. You may never get out of the bath tub! While you will be impressed with the facilities you will be blown away by the attention from the staff. From the moment you are greeted at reception, to the waitstaff, the housekeeping team and even the groundskeeping team they all go out of their way to make you feel at home. Talking to both Martin Dell the GM and Olivier Barre the executive Chef you can understand the focus to detail that is so important to them and the Four Seasons brand. The only complaint we had is that we only stayed a week but know we want to return. You will olove it here.

Simply excellent. Possibly the quietest hotel I have ever stayed in. Very clean and well fitted villas supported by very friendly staff. My wife had been wanting to visit the island for a number of years. It lived up to all our expetcations. Not one thing to moan about throughout our 18 day stay.

This is a very nice resort. The property is huge and in a beautiful secluded environment. It is one of the two resorts in the exclusive Anahita property. There are 2 superb golf courses; one of them on the Ile aux Cerfs. I recommend golfers to have a few rounds of golf when there. The island also has an excellent beach with a lovely bar and a nice restaurant. The hotel has their own boats to bring you there. The beaches, there are 2, on the main land are nice too. One of them has a view on Ile on Cerf and the other the ocean where you can see at the horizon the waves hitting the barrier reef. If you are looking for bleu water, white sand and sun this is the place to be. Astonishing! The staff is extremely nice and helpful. We very much liked the Whatsapp to be in contact with the concierge. It worked extremely well and every request was responded upon immediately. The SPA is a nice relaxing environment with perfect treatments. The gym is very well equipped and has a lap pool. If you didn’t bring you work out cloths you can buy several brands in the shop of the gym. As said the resort is very large but there are buggies available driven by the resort staff to bring you every where or you can use the bicycles each villa has. Also, do not worry despite the size of the property we felt almost all the time as if we were the only guests in the hotel; so privacy guaranteed. Why not scoring Four Seasons excellent? Simply because of the food. The texture of the seafood was not consistent enough but rather soft. Only exception was at Umi Zaka where the scallops were delicious. For your information we haven’t try meat dishes but did try the club sandwich at Bambou and it was very good. Another great food experience was the grilled local fish and catch of the day, vieille rouge”. Excellent!!! And last but not least the french toasts at breakfast are a must. It was perfectly served and tasted extremely well. This means that there is potential and one of the chefs confirmed me that they are working on improving and welcomed the feedback. Know additionally that the hotel closes next year for several months to be fully refurbished. This combined with the improving kitchen should make the Four Season Mauritius probably one of the best resorts in Mauritius. We will be back there in 2026 to confirm. Special recognition for Chessna, Lucinda, Navisha and Chef Alexandre who served us so well in Bambou. Thank you so much!
