It's a nice property with spacious rooms and modern facilities. Location by beach and close to airport is a plus. However, the experience is let down by some staff who just don't seem to bothered about their jobs, unfortunately. House keeping was poor with dusty rooms and towels not changed and even basic things like toilet paper not replenished. The bar area and main buffet areas are too small given the type of property this is. Finally, some F&B prices are astronomical. To put into context, a large draft beer is over GBP 11. That's more than you would pay at the Dorchester Hotel in Central London. This has the potential to be a great property but sadly let down by the above. More a 3 star standard at this point in time. There are plenty of better properties in Mauritius.

CORPORATION HAS MORE MONEY THAN CLIENT
The area was hit with CyClone, the area was devasted with property damage and flooding and they refused to grant a refund. The Airport was closed until further notice and they still would not provide refund. I am also disappointed that Hotels.com did not provide a client credit on my account knowing the reason was due to natural diseaster.

My husband and I stayed at Anantara for a week earlier this month. The hotel is amazing and has a lot of facilities. There are a lot of activities in the hotel free of charge- e.g. archery, snorkeling, etc. The beach is great with crystal clear water and enough sunbeds for all the tourists. Everything is clean and very well maintained. The staff in Anantara is super friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Zahra for making our anniversary so memorable and to the two guys at the snorkeling (Fernando and Ariano) explaining all the things we see at the trip. It was definitely a memorable trip for us and one of the best hotels we ever stayed. Thank you!

I’m really surprised how this hotel qualifies as a 5 star. Everything about it was completely off. The food was pathetic, especially their Indian restaurant. The staff is not at all well trained. They do not value people’s time. Cleanliness is horrible, we returned with painful bed bug bites. The only people who were helpful and sweet were Nishta, Hema and Oceane.

Beautiful property with great amenities. The spa is fabulous. The service was excellent and except for dining staff at breakfast. They would asked you if want coffee and never return, had to keep asking for my coffee over and over. Overall excellent hotel. Needs another pool though.

Don't make our mistake and book this property. Full of cabin crew who treat it like a backpackers hostel. Rooms run down, with stains/ripped bedding every single day. TV didn't work for 3-4 days. Phone in room didn't work and wasn't repaired even though we were promised 6 times. Furniture chipped, sticky and stained. Food was awful and half board/all inclusive was a massive waste of money. SeaFireSalt was incredibly small portions, however, generally nice food - although the menu doesn't change, and on HB/AI, you get a choice of 2-3 options... after a few days, you're bored of the same bland food! Horizon had ants crawling over tables and the croissants in the morning, whilst the dinners were rushed, with bad quality bland food. Nowhere enjoyable to go for evening drinks as the outdoor bar was always full of cabin crew, with no room for us actual guests. Pool area was nice to look at, but dirty - cigarette butts everywhere, dirty sunbeds & bird poo. Not relaxing as the cabin crew all bring down loud personal speakers, so you'll end up listening to 3 different music at the same time - not ideal for reading a book! Staff were generally ok, but when complaining about room issues, no one cared and appeared to find it amusing. The most unprofessional & ridiculous hotel I have ever been to, in addition to being the biggest waste of money I've spent. Anantara didn't bother responding - but they need to decide if they want to be a luxury hotel or a backpackershostel for cabincrew

Beautiful hotel with great landscape. Staff are friendly and professional, they do their best to make u feel comfortable. Food is good in all their restaurant. We had a tour by speed boat to different location including ile au cerf through the hotel with staff name Kamal, we enjoyed it so much just make sure to apply sunscreen as u will get sun burn. Location of the hotel is great on the beach but you definitely need a car to go all over the area as there is nothing near by u can do
