Ambre Resort and Spa

This was our first visit to Mauritius and the staff and setting of this hotel made for a perfect 2 weeks. The rooms may not be the most modern in the world but hey, how much time do most people spend in their room? The rooms are very clean with an extra large and comfortable king size bed and the walk-in shower is excellent. We stayed in room 604 which is a standard court yard room which, when we were told we immediately thought that we may want to upgrade but when we got into the room we were pleasantly surprised so we stayed put. Our housekeeper, Nirmala was so good, keeping the room spotless and adding little touches like decorating the bed with flowers. Overall the staff are superb and always try and go the extra mile to make your stay as special as possible. The restaurants are very good for all inclusive especially La Dolce Vita with very good a la carte menus which is a mix of Italian and Mauritian cuisine. The staff here are also brilliant with our hostess Smita, head waiter Ravi (try his Cafe Creole) and also waiters Neha and Vishal looking after us. Indigo buffet was very good with plenty of choice. The beach is beautiful and very clean and the staff at the boat house are very good and knowledgeable. You can take a kayak or a pedalo or take sailing and wind surfing lessons. A glass bottom boat goes out twice a day as does the snorkeling trip. And this is in your all inclusive package. Nights were relaxing with either the entertainment and cocktails at the Coral Bar or just stroll along the beach or sit on the sofas around the fountain. If you want to take a trip I would recommend the five islands tour which you can book through Chris on the beach. Best day out (especially the Mauritian Coffee served on board his speed boat). There's not a lot to do in the area in the way of bars and restaurants but we found that we didn't need to leave the hotel as everything we needed was there. If you're looking for a relaxing holiday this is the place to go. We don't go back to the same place twice (too many places in the world to see) but we'll definitely be back to this hotel. Thank you Ambre

This is mine & my husbands third visit & once again it didn’t disappoint. It was like coming home. Beautiful setting, with the friendliest staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was up to it’s usual high standards. One thing we did notice, is that plastic bottles especially water aren’t used very much.Only glass, which can be refilled in various parts of the hotel with either still or sparkling . Even on the beach if you want a drink it’s bought to you in a stainless cup. So nice to see the care for the environment & this beautiful part of the world. This is the perfect to place to relax & be pampered. There’s so many people to thank. Especially the wonderful Mr Puttee. And the lovely Armelle from TUI See you all very soon. Love Indi & Paul
