Excellent apartment right on the beach
If,or rather when, we return to Mauritius, we would stay here again. Very comfortable. Large, partially covered deck overlooking the beach plus sun loungers and outside dining area. Very clean, high standard of furnishings. Very friendly and helpful staff. Pool was nice too. Direct access to beach, great location.

Very great
Nous logions dans la dernière chambre (2e étage) : terrasse incroyablement grande ! Cuisine équipée (micro-onde, frigo, grille-pain, cafetière, taque de cuisson), machine à lessiver. La cuisine donne sur le salon, c'est super sympa. Par contre pour manger à l'intérieur c'est style bar (grand plan de travail), la table et dehors (sous la partie couverte de la terrasse). Grande chambre avec grand lit double, garde-robe complète. Salle de bain avec douche et WC. C'est moderne et bien décoré. Il y a aussi un emplacement garage :) le seul souci vient du bruit de la route, c'est la seule chose a reprocher. Propriétaire dispo, personne sur place super sympa aussi ! Ils nous ont conseillé pour des restaurants. Pour finir, on est très bien situé : club de plongée à coté super, la plage est belle, la grand route et le super U pas loin. Les 2 autres appartements conviendront pour les familles car nous n’avions qu’une seule chambre.

Fantastic
This is the second time I visit this propery in Trou Aux Biches with my family and everything is just as perfect as we remembered from last year. This year we had invited my parents to joins us so we were 3 generations with my parents in the penthouse flat and my family in the large flat in the middle.
The property is located right on the beach and offers a fantastic view over the ocean and a spectacular sunset. Everything is very high quality and kept in a spotless condition both inside and outside.
The apartment is equipped with all the things you could wish for when you are a family and travelling with children. Especially the big gas grill on the terrace is a hit when grilling big steaks or freshly caught tuna.
There is access to a beautiful beach nearby (500m) and it is possible to snorkel on the coral garden right in front of the property. There are also a number of nice beaches further up the coast.
We were warmly welcomed by Maria and Gabrielle. During the holiday we also met both Gabrielle's husband Guy, the security man and the gardener. Marie and Gabrielle were so kind to prepare a carry dish for us so we could get a taste of the local cuisine. They also helped us clean and prepare a large yellowfin tuna that we had caught on a fishing trip. It was a fantastic experience to try the deep sea fishing.
The owner and staff were very kind and helpful in relation to providing good advice on trips and they helped arranging fishing trips with deep sea fishing, different sailing trips with both catemaran and speedboat, renting cars and transport to the airport, etc. It has been a great help for us.

Trou Aux Beach, the northern part of the island, is a beautiful part of the island. (The whole island is beautiful but for me the north is) Quick to where ever you want to be and for me the best weather as protected by the mountain of the prevailing winds.
Getting around
Bus, taxi, car hire, scooter hire, can be acquired quickly. Walking is recommended as you see more and interact with the local. Very friendly nation with a variety of cultures, religion and ethnic groups.
