Heritage Le Telfair Golf & Spa Resort

It's an ornate colonial style complex on the southern coast of Bel Ombre. The hotel offers a wide range of facilities (some included in the packages and some on a paid basis). The staff is courteous but often work mechanically and lack compassion. They misplace bags, often unresponsive and if you have a broken faucet, plumbing or electrical issues no body would come to check - so good luck with that. The food especially for in room dining is exhorbitently priced with an additional room service charge which is more than any other luxury resorts in the north. 700ml Water bottles cost a whopping 4 EUR of which you get just one bottle each per day only replenished post dinner (strange policy). This is strange considering most other luxury resorts give away as many free water bottles as you need through out your stay. There are close to 7 main restaurants which serve mostly European and Asian. Despite of being a heritage hotel, there was little or no local Mauritian taste or culture (past/present). If you like Indian/Mexican /Local Dhal Roti I think you might not find much choices. This could be mostly attributed to the fact that most guests are French. Overall, it boasts luxury but lacks the attitude. If you are coming with your family to relax, come with infinite patience, and a loaded wallet. For me, Mauritius has way too many nicer options around the same price point. Not recommended...

We spent a wonderful 1-week babymoon holiday at Le Telfair and I would highly recommend other expecting couples to consider this hotel. I was 28 weeks pregnant at the time of the stay. The resort is conveniently located just an hour from the airport. The accommodation was beautiful. We stayed in the Adult Only wing and got an upgrade to the Senior Ocean View Suite, which was a stunning room with a romantic canopy bed, large balcony, and spacious bathroom. Daily cleaning and evening turn down service were without fault. The staff prepared a pregnancy pillow in the room and some welcome treats for us to enjoy. The adult wing was very peaceful and quiet. Not just the wing, but the entire resort felt very spacious and not crowded even though we stayed during the peak season. It wasn't difficult to find available sun beds and the pool wasn't busy. Restaurants offered special menus & degustation evenings, which we were told was specific for the peak season we came in. Restaurants had to be booked in advance if you wanted to make sure to visit them all. We had the Half Board package which was more than enough given pregnancy constraints - it covered a few of the restaurants fully and the rest were with credit to spend on a la carte. We particularly enjoyed Gin'Ja, Le Palmier, and C Beach Club for relaxing with an afternoon lemonade. Oh and the breakfast buffet was delicious - we still enjoyed the selection even after one week of stay! There is a range of FOC activies at the resort, which was a great way to stay active throughout the holiday. The golf at Le Chateau was amazing - tee times could be booked without issue most days and we weren't paired with other people. Course is in great condition and hitting off grass at the range was great for practice. As for the resort-based activities, those were great as well - daily yoga/mat pilates classes are available, gym was well-equipped for a basic workout, and we even did the snorkeling at coral reefs which was an easy, very feasible and well-guided activity. We also did a pregnancy photoshoot with the resort photographer Kumar. He captured some beautiful shots of us at the beach and among the trees & footpaths, giving us beautiful memories that we'll cherish for years to come. Thank you. Lastly, the staff was extremely welcoming and communicative. WhatsApp communication with the Concierge made it so easy for us to book restaurants, golf, and other activities! We would like to give a special shoutout to Hansy who arranged the room upgrade for us, as well as Adrien who assisted us with many things during our stay.

We spent a relaxing week at Le Telfair, pampered by the staff who were extremely kind and attentive. The room was very spacious and tastefully furnished, overlooking the river and the garden. The restaurants where we dined were excellent, offering varied and very fresh food. The breakfast was also delicious and plentiful. We really appreciated the ‘adults only’ areas, both for dining and in the beach/pool area.

Our stay at Le Telfair has been truly exceptional, and from the moment we arrived, it was clear that this hotel sets a very high standard for hospitality. A special thank you to Suren and the concierge team, who went out of their way to ensure our room was beautifully prepared. The attention to detail was impressive and immediately made us feel welcomed and valued. The service throughout the resort has been outstanding. Noor and Sharmine were both incredibly helpful and attentive, always on hand to assist with anything we needed. A very special mention goes to Tushita, whose warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made a real difference to our stay. She truly embodies what exceptional hospitality should be. Dining at Gin’ja Restaurant was a highlight — the food was absolutely superb, and the friendly, attentive staff made the experience even more enjoyable. It was, without question, a really great dining experience. We would also like to recognise Joshua, Ludovic, and the concierge and valet teams, who were consistently friendly, approachable, and always on hand to cater to every need. Their positive attitudes and professionalism added so much to the overall experience. The room itself was luxurious, beautifully designed, very well thought out, and immaculately cleaned every single day. It was clear that great care is taken to maintain the highest standards of comfort. One particularly memorable moment was having the opportunity to enjoy a conversation with the General Manager of the Hotel during one of the dinner evenings — something that is quite rare in hotels and really speaks volumes about the leadership, approachability, and pride taken in guest experience. The hotel and its grounds are absolutely stunning, creating a peaceful and elegant atmosphere throughout the resort. The experience was so exceptional that we even decided to extend our stay. Having stayed at several Small Luxury Hotels of the World properties, we can confidently say that Le Telfair stands among the very best. The service, setting, and genuine care from the entire team truly set this hotel apart. We leave with wonderful memories and would not hesitate to return in the future.

The Heritage Telfare hotel is one of the best in Maurithius. If you choose it, you’ll not regret! 👌🏻 It was a wonderful time at the Heritage Telfare hotel. And our butler Hushni was the best one. She was very attentive.
