Zilwa Attitude

Zilwa.....Is like a little piece of heaven on earth Firstly if your thinking of staying at zilwa, go for it! You will not regret it. The hotel is beautiful, the view when you first enter, is something that you will not tire from, in fact i think it becomes better with each day! The Staff are if not the nicest at any hotel i have ever visited, with special thanks to Rani who littler made our stay the most special experience. There were only a few members of staff who tended to order people about than actually work (which in honesty did bother me) but every other staff member couldn't do enough for you. Nothing was too much trouble, after a few days your drink orders were remembered, your lunch order too. Small things like this in a hotel at full capacity to me makes a difference! It means they care! The Restaurants in the hotel are insane, all of them and i can honestly say this is not usually for a hotel with 5 different options. Usually you will find 1 or 2 that don't hit the mark. But honestly we never ate in the buffet as they were all incredibly delicious!! The bar food during the day was lush and the little huts on the beach for lunch were also so tasty. Breakfast had many options, to suit everyone. As others have mention yes there are birds around the tables when left empty but this didn't bother me. I enjoying being outdoors and id rather have this option when travelling as i want to be outside. (just remember not to leave your food unattended haha) The Rooms....We booked a sea view superior room as no other rooms were available when booking and i requested an upgrade if available. When we arrived we couldn't see the sea and the room in my opinion was small, and a two week stay in that particular room would have been a lot. After talking to on of the manager's i was told we could move rooms the next day, we were upgraded to a couple junior seafront suite, WOW just wow this room was just beautiful, perfect and exactly what we had originally wanted! Walking out straight onto the beach, watching the waves from the bed, this was perfection. The hotel offers a trip to a local home to experience true mauritian lifestyle, this was the best night of our trip and i am so so glad we did it. It was magical and we had so much fun! I haven't laughed like that for a very long time. IT'S A MUST!! The island is stunning but about 100 degrees hotter than the beach, so bare this in mind. We loved this but families with children should consider this when going over. The BBQ lunch is nice, nothing over the top but there's lots of options and drinks too. It didn't happen to us but we saw many people who had cut their feet while in the sea and around the rocks, so please take advantage of the free sea shoes. I honestly could go on and on about this hotel but i'll stop boring you, just get it booked!! :) Oh and Last but not least, make sure you see at least on sunrise!!! Trust me you'll never forget it

Amazing stay and the staff was really friendly. I felt really at home! The location make it a little heaven where you can relax and forget about everything. I will definitely come back as I really loved it
