room pretty basic, the garden is quite amazing, relaxing with a view on the mangroves.
We liked the location and the staff was polite. But there were ants and even a rat in our room. The breakfast area was not cleaned from the night before and there was trash everywhere.
HORRIBLE!! Dirty, no sheets & dirty bedding, rats in the room, run-down, no spa, no visible staff, lots of mosquitos,
DECEPTIVE ADVERTISING - DO NOT BOOK!! DO NOT STAY!!!

There was a rat in the room and we had to threw all our foods
Accueil chaleureux cependant nous avons fi changer de chambre car présence de souris dans la 1er. Dans la deuxième chambre dans la nuit une petite souris est également rentrée. Bâtiment non entretenu, beaucoup de moustique. Je n'avais hâte de quitter le lodge
Importante saber que é um local é simples. A rua de entrada é sem saída e bem estreita, chegar a noite é um pouco assustador. Nicolas foi super gentil e solicito, mas não parece um hotel, parece mais que estamos na casa de alguém. O quarto estava com cheiro de mofo, havia lagartixa morta e um coco de animal na pia, algumas janelas não trancavam para a noite. Os funcionários foram gentis. Tem uma quantidade enorme de mosquitos, muitos mesmo! O local fica em meio a uma mata. Apesar de tudo se você planeja passar apenas uma noite rápida (como fizemos) eu recomendo sim pois tem um ótimo custo-benefício para a região.
Nicolas a su tout gerer et se rendre disponible.
L’emplacement de son lodge est ideal pour une escale ou passer un sejour et découvrir les alentours.
Calme et gentillesse

Séjour mitigé ..
Un joli endroit dépaysant en pleine nature mais très éloigné de tout. L'accueil et le ménage ont été faits de manière très expéditive à mon arrivée et il y a un gros manque de disponibilité durant le séjour. J'ai eu un souci dans le lodge et je n'ai pu contacter personne.
Le gros point positif est le petit déjeuner copieux et excellent et la gentillesse du personnel.
Da vi ankom til stedet blev vi anvist vores værelse. Der var karkelakker, som af personalet blot blev sparket ud på terrassen, da de blev påpeget af os. I ekstrasengen, til vores datter, var der dyreeskrementer. Også dette måtte vi selv påpege. Sengetøjet var beskidt og guldnet. Vi havde bestilt værelse med egen pool, som var møgbeskidt. Den store fællespool var i samme stand. Værelset var fyldt med myg, og eftersom der kunne komme dyr ind flere steder, ville det forblive sådan. Det var ikke myggenet ved sengene. Vi valgte at checke ud efter et par timer, der skulle vi ikke være.
The stay was very dissapointing! Really Poor breakfast, even though the hotel in the booking posted “GOOD Breakfast”, It was small chunks of white dried bread, and jam and a bad Coffee. The worst breakfast ever! The matress in the room was really bad. We could feel the springs in the bed. And there was cockroaches in the bathroom.
Good things: The staff was very friendly and there was hot water.
Situe au fond d'une ruelle type mauritienne, ce lodge est très atypique. Pension correcte, petit bungalow , originalité de la salle de bain, et notre jacuzzi perso dans notre jardin tropical. A 15 mn de l'aéroport. Super. Accueil des plus chaleureux.
Nous avons été parfaitement bien accueilli sur le site
Les chambres étaient très propres, la nourriture qualitative
Le choix de pouvoir faire du kayak sur la rivière, et le fish spa, c’était vraiment sympa et original !
2 chiens adorables qui sont là aussi pour nous ça accueillir !
Juste une petite chose : planter de la citronnelle autours des piscines privées, parce qu’on se fait DÉVORER par les moustiques dehors, et c’est bien dommage de pas profiter du cadre ..
I really love the lodge it was very spacy and he really had a very nice time among friends.
Unfortunately, i didn't appreciate the food, wish it could be more but overall i'm satisfied with my stay and might go again there in the near future.
Die Unterkunft ist ungepflegt und unsauber. Das Essen ist nur Mittelmaß und viel zu teuer. Beim Bungalow und innen drin sind Mäuse!! Nachts ist kein Personal auf den Gelände. Grundsätzlich wäre die Anlage schön, es müsste viel mehr getan werden. Das Preis- Leistungsverhältnis stimmt überhaupt nicht.
Wir waren nur eine Nacht hier, da sich das Hotel in Flughafen-Nähe befindet.
Das Hotel entspricht zwar grundsätzlich den Bildern, allerdings ist alles ziemlich abgewohnt. Man merkt schnell, dass alles irgendwie selbst zusammengeschustert wurde.
Die Reinigung ließ an der einen oder anderen Stelle zu wünschen übrig. Nicht besonders schön fand ich das Bett, bei dem ich mir ehrlich gesagt nicht sicher war, ob es frisch überzogen war.
Das Personal bzw. die Eigentümer waren bei unserem Check In nicht da, aber Freunde von Ihnen haben uns kurz und knapp etwas zum Hotel erzählt und uns den Schlüssel übergeben.
Positiv hervorzuheben ist, dass uns aufgrund unseres sehr frühen Rückfluges am nächsten Tag ausnahmsweise bereits um 5:30 Uhr von einem sehr netten Einheimischen Frühstück zubereitet wurde. Das war wirklich super!

Unacceptable to send us to a house very far away
They sent us to a location >30 min away, which may be unsafe and no restaurant around. Totally unacceptable.
lovely accommodation. nothing luxurious, but everything was great nevertheless. friendly owners, lovely reasonable dinners, free breakfast. super relaxing and private enough, but not too far from the main city center. not much to do in Mahebourg, unless you have a car
