The Oberoi, Mauritius

When we arrived at the Oberoi Beach Resort on our first trip to Mautitius we didn´t know what to expect. It did not take us long to realise we just arrived at a truly outstanding place. The service is probably the best we have seen at a hotel anywhere and the place is so beautiful. It is a true paradise for anyone wanting to relax.

The most magnificent experience in every way imaginable. Surrounded by warmth and attention from the moment we set foot on the hotel grounds. The hotel staff and management are superb and unlike anything you will find anywhere else -- each interaction is as though you are with dear friends and everything is possible. Hotel facilities are extensive and without fail -- incredible. Restaurants are out of this world. Rooms and villas -- most comfortable and spacious and private. Scenery is remarkable -- the sunsets are to die for. We enjoyed the most relaxing and rejuvenating break ever. Could not recommend The Oberoi, Mauritius more highly -- it is unrivalled.

We have very fond memories of Mauritius from visits 40 years ago. We also have very fond memories of Oberoi hotels in other countries. The Oberoi Mauritius did not disappoint! It is a spectacular hotel, in a beautiful location, staffed by some of the loveliest people in the world. In all respects the resort excelled. In all respects the hotel team excelled. We had a delightful and exceptionally comfortable room with a double aspect to the west and to the south. We enjoyed the 45 minutes before sunset on our patio every evening. Breakfast in the main restaurant was excellent, with a very diverse buffet and al a carte menu. We skipped lunch many days but found that the beach bar served great cocktails and lunch snacks when we couldn’t resist. We alternated between the main restaurant and the slightly more casual “On the Rocks” restaurant for supper. The menus had a very good balance between international and local cuisine. We enjoyed lounging on the beach, snorkeling at least daily, an occasional sail, ski and game of tennis. The Water Sports team were very available to assist and coach, much more so than at many resorts. The plentiful supply of iced water and an afternoon ice cream to our sun loungers on the beach was greatly appreciated. We found the holiday very relaxing and perfect for heading into our 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration in London. It is difficult to single out individual staff members without mentioning the whole team. However, we greatly appreciate the hospitality and graciousness of Madame Natacha; House Keeping - Ashwynta, Sambi and Dinesh; Bar – Justin, Rabin and Sidharth; On the Rocks – Shaan and Solomon; Main Restaurant – Aum, Bharti and Djoti; Water Sports – Terry, Danny, Rakesh and Giovan. Every single staff member we encountered in the resort had a most pleasant disposition. Each one of them being perfect ambassadors for their company and their country. Very well done and many thanks, Ian and Jane Partridge

There is a reason why The Oberoi is a 5-star Deluxe resort, and it did not disappoint. First of all, once you arrive, your car is parked for you, and your luggage magically appears in your room. Oh no, sorry - The Oberoi doesn't do "rooms" or "suits", The Oberoi does Pavilions and Villas! That there tells you everything you need to know. When a hotel or resort doesn't offer an All-Inclusive option or Buffet food, you know you're in for a treat. The only options are B&B or HB - we took HB. The staff are unbelievably attentive, polite and helpful. Honestly, they could not have done more to try and please us. We arrived a bit early at the hotel, and we were told our pavilion was already ready for us. We were even offered a late check-out as it was available - we didn't even have to ask. The food is exquisite - portion sizes may appear small, but don't be fooled! That three-course meal will fill you right up even before you realize. Breakfast must have been the highlight of our trip - we tasted as much as we could, each dish being better that the last. There are two swimming pools - one for families and one for adults-only. I cannot recommend this place enough. I will definitely be going back for a well-deserved relaxing break.

Came to the Oberoi January 2026 for two weeks with our 2.5 year old and whilst I am 4 months pregnant. Firstly, I would like to focus on the experience from my daughter's perspective for anyone thinking of coming with little ones. My daughter was treated like a complete princess. We usually do very child focussed hotels mainly so you don't feel like you are interrupting other people's experience, but we needn't have worried about that at the Oberoi. The space that you have between you and other guests is huge. We had a room that we could walk out the back door to the pool in 20 steps, where we never struggled for sun loungers and didn't at all feel like we were upsetting other guests playing and splashing around. The kids club is 4+, but I was allowed to stay with my little girl so she could do activities. As she was basically the only child here, the kids club would let us borrow the access card to be able to use the facilities whenever we wanted which was a great escape from the sun (they have a play kitchen and board games etc). Also, Shamra who was running the kids club would let us pick an activity and a time that suited us best which was amazing for us. They even let us borrow sand castle equipment to have for our stay. The food is great and they have a kids menu, but are more than accommodating to go off of that menu for the things your little one enjoys most. The evening entertainment is music, but the one singer in particular on Fridays and Tuesdays would break out some Disney hits for my daughter to have a good old boogie which made the holiday for us. As for us adults, the mocktail selection was great and the food was exceptional. We ate the Indian menu options the majority of the time because it was uniquely different and authentic to anything we have had in the UK. I organised a full body pillow when I got here which meant I didn't need to bring my pregnancy pillow with me and the bed was super comfy. The room was always pristine and the teddies were always placed in cute new location which my daughter loved. Huge shout out to Antish, Anisha and Madvhi who looked after the room and were so quick with the cleaning. The room is brilliant. We stayed in the lowest standard room and it was phenomenal. The outdoor sun loungers were great with the little one having her nap inside etc. I had a wonderful pregnancy massage by Preety and my husband had 3 massages, 2 by Samantha that he said were the best he'd ever had. Major shout out to the chefs, we spoke with Hari and Udit who did us a special cooking class to see how they made our favourite dishes from the holiday. The experience was amazing, and felt really special. Final shout out to the staff that we interacted with over meals and in the bar that made us feel like pampered royalty. Rabin in the bar, Manav, Akshay, Shaan, Aditya and Rhubesh who kept my little one stocked up on chocolate after dinner. We can't fault the Oberoi, we had high hopes when we booked it, but frankly it surpassed. We are coming back feeling rested but also so grateful for all the lovely interactions. Your facilities are great, but the staff elevated our experience, and the ice cream in the afternoon was such a fun little surprise. P.s. I got to have a sneaky look around he fancy royal room which is the top level room and that was insane, bigger than my house! And we had expected some gaps in the weather before we came with it being January, and we were staying two weeks, but the weather was almost perfect, we had one night time storm and the odd shower on one or two days.
