The Oberoi, Mauritius

A wonderful spot for the first leg of our honeymoon! Excellent 5 star service and our bungalow was well-appointed and so comfortable! Favorite parts were the snorkel excursion you could take any day, the spa massage experience, the Gunpowder restaurant dinner experience, and the bar and beach food and service.

The Oberoi, Mauritius is an exceptional place, offering beautiful surroundings, great hospitality, and some truly memorable food. However, improvements in the check-in experience and refinements to certain dishes would make the stay even better. Would still recommend, but with expectations adjusted for these minor setbacks. The food was mostly excellent, with the reef fish, malai kebab, roasted chicken, and dal makhani standing out as truly delicious dishes. The hotel staff, especially Natacha, were incredibly courteous and friendly, making the experience feel warm and welcoming. The F&B staff were also very professional, ensuring a great dining experience. The grounds of the hotel are absolutely stunning, beautifully maintained, and add to the charm of the property. The checkout process was smooth, and the front office staff member in the white shirt was the most professional of them all—unfortunately, I didn’t catch his name, but his efficiency and service were outstanding. The thali was disappointing this time, especially compared to last year. While it looked stunning, the chicken and lamb dishes were bland and watery, lacking flavor, and the rest of the dishes on the thali didn’t fare much better. The check-in process remains an issue—once again, it was not up to standard, and I strongly feel that the check-in staff need better training to be more proactive and attentive. Given the level of service expected at a property like this, it’s an area that should be improved.

My husband and I were guests at this incredible resort in April last year and submitted our 5 star review on our return to the UK. We pledged to return again and re-booked for the end of April this year and we are literally counting the days. We regularly seek out YouTube videos of the resort, just to relive the wonderful experience we had last year and I truly think we're now as familiar with the resort as we are with our own home!! I can honestly say that, in all our travels and holiday experiences throughout our lives, neither my husband nor I have ever been as captivated by a hotel, resort or location as we have with Oberoi Beach Resort Mauritius. I cannot put into words just how great an impression this hotel and it's amazing staff has had on both of us. Suffice to say we are beyond excited to be returning for our 2nd visit in 6 short weeks time. We really cannot wait to see you all again.

We had a brilliant time at the Oberoi hotel. Everything from the food, service and facilities was fantastic. Special mention must be given to the chef Deepak who made us his special Tandoori Chicken which was not on the menu, but was delicious ! The star-gazing, the rum tasting and the special dinner in the herb garden were all highlights and everyone member of the staff made us feel welcome and relaxed - what a great team !

If you want relaxed luxury hotel situated directly on the beach then The Oberoi is for you.This hotel is just superb. we cannot find anything negative to say. The staff are just brilliant - all of them. There is nothing that is too much trouble for them so it is wrong to single any of them out. Ashna and Yash were great. Aum was bril. but ALL were great. The room was well appointed. The abundance of sun loungers good. As for the location of the Rock restaurant - cannot be beaten, with the lapping waves 2 or 3 yds away-soooo romantic. Well done Oberoi, we will be back!!!
