We stayed a night at the villas and our villa was very nice. We were picked up at the airport and the service was excellent. We also rented a car! Great airport drop off service. The car was in good condition and way cheaper than the big agencies. So, the tip is - if you end up staying at one... More

We were picked up from the airport as promised and taken to our apartment, the 125m2 apartment (#5). Thankfully Kenny kindly took my heavy bag up the stairs for me. The apartment has all you need to be comfortable. Though only two of us (my husband and I) were staying here, we opted for the large spacious apartment as we... More

Pingouinvillas provided an excellent base for exploring the south-east of Mauritius. Mr Ramjan was exceptionally friendly and helpful, picking us up from the airport, showing us the local area (including the best beaches) and taking us to the supermarket for supplies. He also rented us a decent car at a good price. The apartment was adequate as a base, with... More

A very kind man who goes by the name Sarif greets you upon arrival and looks after you during your stay. The place itself if located 7 minutes walk from Blue Bay beach in a quiet residential area. The apartment was very large and spacious and came with everything you could require for your stay. The one negative element was... More

Pingouinvillas is a charming complex within easy walking distance of the public beaches at Blue Bay. The apartment was spacious, well maintained, well equipped and comfortable. The proprietor was very helpful with airport transfers and visits to the shops but otherwise did not intrude. The apartment is ideal for families not wanting the hustle and expense of hotels. Make sure... More

We had a fantastic week in the Pinguinvillas. Blue Bay beach is the best among the baches of Mauritus, the small village is also really nice, tropical and really humid. We stayed in a 3 rooms apartment with big balcony, and view to the beutifull garden. The villa is fresh, cozy and tidy. The garden full of exotic plants, palmtrees... More

As a number of times before, I started my search for accomodation on Tripadvisor and that's how I learnt about Pingouinvillas. It is not a coincidence that it is rated as the number one specialty lodging on the island - the apartments are fantastic value. The apartment block is only about a 3 minute walk from the Blue Bay lagoon... More
