We holidayed in late March early April which is a lovely time of year to go to Mauritius. - Very warm & sunny but not oppressively so.
Right from our first communications with Shirley she gave us a warm feeling that we’d chosen the correct villa. her replies were swift and comprehensive, and at times she answered the questions we should have asked but didn't.
Located inland in a quiet residential area - we were probably the noisiest people there - The villa was great. All areas are very clean, well kept, as well as having everything you could wish for or need on a - chill out - villa holiday It is spacious and well thought out.
We didn’t use the TV area, but it all looked comfortable and purposeful. If you open doors and windows, there is a lovely, cooling easterly breeze that blows through the open areas. The Pool was good size - I learnt to float on the water for the first time, wahoo - full UK swimming lessons next.
Linlay - the on site manager - was extremely helpful and had a light unobtrusive touch. She only lives next door so was easily available for all our needs, and was also a good source for information
Arrangements for the taxi from & to the airport were very well organised the drivers on both legs were very polite and full of information about the island.
Bain Boeuf beach was only a leisurely 15min walk away, very nice for a pre sunrise stroll, taxi's were available from that area, we travelled into Grand Baie for food shopping and lunch.
La Croisette shopping mall surprised us as it wasn’t there on our last trip, it is quite large and very modern - worth a visit. Had pleasant lunches and fantastic local ice cream at Suncoco and excellent service and meals at Divino who had a waitress with a very customer friendly style.
Would definitely return to this villa on our next Mascarene visit
