C Mauritius — Hotel in Isle Mauritius

This hotel is absolutely wonderful.

Very much a high-end boutique hotel, the sole focus being on the guests relaxing and enjoying their stay in Mauritius.

On the east coast, the hotel is situated on a beautiful beach which is both very clean (clear blue "postcard type" waters) and very safe. Beach activities and water sports are available, but with such a wonderful ocean in front of you, most guests either sunbathed, walked up/down the beautiful coastline or swam/snorkled. (Or drank cocktails at the beach bar).

The hotel itself is fantastic. Wonderfully decorated, spacious, clean and welcoming. Three restaurants, two bars, several infinity pools, a fantastic spa and wonderful gardens. The rooms are spacious, modern and beautifully decorated. Our room (Deluxe Beachfront) overlooked the beach/ocean and had a wonderful terrace/balcony. Very, very comfortable and very large bed. Walk-in shower. Spacious bathroom. TV. Mini-bar (restocked free of charge every day). Air-con. Also thick walls so no noise at all from adjoining rooms. Our room was cleaned to an exceptionally very high standard every day.

The food is amazing. In the main split-level restaurant, there is a wide ranging variety of freshly caught fish, and a huge choice of meats, available every lunch and dinner - cooked to your liking right in front of you. Local vegetables. Great curries. Wonderful salads. Fresh bread. Also local dishes to try. There is a Japanese/fusion restaurant which is excellent and definitely worth a try (talk to Wade if you need any assistance with your order/meal - he's super knowledgeable and helpful). There is also a third restaurant, more of an upmarket snack bar, selling wagyu burgers, fresh wood-fired pizzas and toasted sandwiches etc. This too, is excellent. Drinks-wise, all the drinks are included in your stay, including imported spirits, wines, prosecco and beers. (I think the super-fancy whiskeys/champagnes are chargeable). The cocktail list is extensive and the bar staff very efficient (you don't have to wait too long for your next drink!). One important note, the coffee here is excellent! There are two bars, one on the beach and one beside one of the pools (where very high standard live music is provided every evening).

All the above made for a wonderful, unforgettable stay at C Mauritius. However what made it absolutely perfect was the staff. Every single member of staff went the extra mile to ensure we had a perfect stay. They were always smiling, courteous, polite, helpful, efficient, professional and eager to ensure we enjoyed our stay here. Many, many thanks to all the staff at C Mauritius for making our stay in this wonderful hotel perfect. By the end of the first day, we had already started to make a list of all the members of staff who impressed us and we should mention in our review. By the end of our week's stay, the list included almost everybody! We will however mention 4 members of staff who we had the good fortune of meeting on several occasions. Karen (front desk manager). Incredibly helpful, professional and accommodating. Girishi (front desk/reception). A lovely, charming young lady who was always very helpful. Wade (japanese and main restaurant). Extremely helpful, friendly and informative. Nem (rooms). Always smiling, Nem cleaned/made-up our room every day to the absolute highest standard. Thank you, and everyone else who works at C Mauritius. We are truly grateful.

And we will definitely return as...

First of all we would like to thank everyone at C Mauritius for their kindness, hard work and truly generous smiles and service. Our 14 night stay exceeded our highest expectations, and showcased everything that is not only good about Mauritius, but how to provide a first class service.|We booked C Mauritius after lots of research and could not have chosen better. I contacted the customer service team a few weeks before our arrival. This was to inform them of my wife's birthday, during our stay. I knew as soon as I received a very quick, positive response that the team at C were going to be a special one.|The birthday touches on the day both in our room, and the restaurant (with a lovely cake) were really appreciated by the birthday girl.|On arrival we were whisked through the formalities - as the C provided a pre-arrival check in portal, which was excellent. We were also upgraded to a deluxe room which was a really nice touch. |Our room. (428) was lovely, bright, clean and everything worked as it should do. |A big thanks to the cleaning team who did a great job.|The smart TV (inc sports and movie channels) also provided resort info, restaurant booking and room bill details. |The snacks and drinks that are part of the All Inclusive (AI) were topped up every day along with fresh bottles of water.|The resort is a nice size and very well laid out, with easy beach access. The main restaurant is lovely with seating across two levels. There were lots of very tasty food options and all the desserts were kept in cold cabinets. |A big thanks to Deshi and his restaurant team, for what was probably the best service we have ever had. With special thanks going to the wonderful Vima and her sidekick Jay. These two epitomised the spirit and professionalism of the resort, and made everyday a joy for us.|Also a huge thanks to Vella and his sommeliers. The C Mauritius boasts (and rightly so) about it's well stocked and quality wine cellar. One word sums up the wines available on the AI, STUNNING.|I am a picky wine drinker and my favourites come from Southern France. Vella and his team produced a couple of absolute gems and my proverbial cup was definitely overflowing.|The staff both on the beach and in the main bar were great fun, attentive, knowledgeable and always willing to expand your cocktail experience! A big thanks to everyone, especially (Princess) Jasmine, who's smiling service will stay with us for a long time.|For those looking to book excursions and car hire etc, Danny in reception was a great choice.|His 5 Islands trip was an absolute blast, the small party in a speed boat and quality beach BBQ is a big recommend.|We had two visits to the spa for couples massages (as the 1st one was so good) both were excellent and very well priced.|We also had two specialty dinners, one in wok n roll and the lobster / steak dinner.|Both were superb and the sushi / sushi mi main I had was exceptional. If you are fortunate enough to go to the C, both are an experience not to be missed.|Finally no holiday is complete without meeting new people and enjoying their company.|So a big thanks to Stephan and family, Alex, Bianca and baby, you made our vacation...

C Mauritius is an amazing resort! It was our wedding anniversary, honeymoon and my birthday.

When we arrived, the friendly and smiling staff was already waiting for us at the reception. We booked a Prestige room and got an upgrade to Deluxe room which was a pleasant surprise that we really appreciate. The room was perfect with a view of the pool, the beach and the sea. The room has a large terrace, a large bathroom and a mini bar, which is included in the All-in package and refilled every day. Our room was always nicely tidied, for which we have to thank the maid Eliet. The beach in front of the hotel is beautiful, almost like in the Maldives. Sun loungers and parasols are free of charge. The facilities and everything in the hotel are really very well preserved and clean. The food is delicious and varied.

The best at this hotel, however, are the employees. Everyone is so kind and helpful. We travel a lot, but we have never met such friendly and open people as the Mauritians. We would like to thank and greet all the staff at the bar, especially Vanee, who is really unique and made sure we never ran out of drinks, Gin Tonic all the way. We apologize for not remembering the names of the others, but they are all really great. Dj played good music and he is also a very friendly person.

We mostly organized the trips ourselves, but one (the best trip) was arranged by Yajna. Catamaran trip to 3 islands in the north. Find her, she’s really bubbly and make you feel really special every time you talk to her. Yajna and Deepak prepared surprises for our wedding anniversary and for my birthday. Deepak really nicely set the table in the restaurant and provided very good service throughout our stay. At breakfast, we remembered Jesh the most, with whom we chatted a bit every morning. His daughter prepared perfect fried eggs for us every morning.

Megan and Pascal organize gatherings, sports, fun things at the resort. We only attended Beer Pong and you can imagine how it ended :) Regardless of the fact that we didn't spend too much time with the other guests, it was fun to talk to Megan and Pascal every day. Too bad we didn’t remember all the names, because really all the staff are very friendly and up to standard.

On departure we were offered a free late check out, which was very helpful because we only had a flight at 20:00 in the evening.

If I had to point out something bad, I might just mention that there was a misunderstanding for our Candle light dinner as the other two guests were accidentally seated at our table at the Wok’n Roll restaurant. Then the servers pretended like there was nothing wrong and made sure we got the food that was on the Candle light dinner menu anyway. But it’s really a trifle that didn’t even happen to interfere with our dinner.

We had an awesome stay and we can’t wait to come back. Keep up...
