This hotel seems to have attracted very mixed reviews. I spent my honeymoon there in 2008 and I quite liked it, although I concede that it is probably more for the budget traveller (relatively speaking- this is Mauritius). The best thing about this hotel is its wonderful location: you can walk straight onto the beach and dive into the sea... more

We stayed for ten nights in oct 2008. The staff were very friendly but the food is very repetitious. If you like fish and curry you will be fine, if not youve got problems. The rooms are a bit tatty and very dark, and sharing with resident cockroaches (which are BIG). Mickey mouse comes out at night (9' sharp each... more

Like mentioned by a lot of people The Bougainville is a beautiful place. The biggest advantage is that it just has about 40 rooms and the service is very good and personalised. please note that the rooms are slightly old. Kamal in the resturant and moina at the reception do require a special mention. We did renew our vows there... more

Are you looking for a hotel in Mauritius where you can very happily spend three weeks . Do you want a quiet, small hotel where you get to know the friendly, helpful staff. Do you want a lovely beach on your doorstep with some of the best snorkeling on the island just 30m.away. If so, the hotel Bougainville will not... more

The Bougainville was a delight. 40 rooms and so you were quickly known by the staff . We were all inclusive with Mercury Direct and it was superb. Two ladies in the dining room Delila and Daveena were outstanding, and as soon as our wine glass was empty it was refilled. The food a little repetitious perhaps particularly breakfast but... more

If you like the quiet life and want to get away from it all come to this little hideaway hotel. We had a lovely time here. the staff were extremely friendly. Monty the bar man was a star and Devina the waitress always happy to serve. The rooms were clean and maybe under careful inspection a little dated, but what... more

Melbourne, Australia We stayed at the hotel for 13 nights. We were worried about the other reviews on tripadvisor but our travel agent was right that we would love this 3 star hotel. The entrance leading up to the reception area was beautifully designed. I must say that Christine and Monia were very professional and helpful with our personal requests.... more

here is a LONG viewpoint of a couple, late 20s (myself in the resturant/hospitality industry), french & american (*we read these reviews before we left and feel they are a bit off...) To begin, this place is PERFECTLY FINE for anyone, it is just the DETAILS that reveal a very AVERAGE place...we chose it knowing it wasnt the "best" but... more

The Bougainville Hotel is a little gem: well run by a great staff, nicely located and serving good food. Limited entertainment in the hotel and area makes it a bit of a fogie place, but, as a fogie, that is not bad thing. Now for the detail. This review is nit-picking, warts and all but should not detract from the... more
