Boutique hotel with private beach
Small, secluded boutique hotel with a private beach and a fantastic restaurant & bar. Staff was wonderful and went out of their way to ensure we had everything that we needed. Located close to the airport, Blue Bay, and Mahebourge; but not super walkable, but close enough to local establishments, while still enjoying a bit of seclusion. Water sports and activities available through the hotel.

The location of our bungalow was good. The views out to sea beautiful. Unfortunately the bad weather did not permit us to make use of the beach and sea. A couple of things that can be improved in property 202 are a) easier way to get warm water temp in the shower. b) broken bin lid c) loose toilet seat. Service in the restaurant a bit hit and miss. If they know who are staying in their hotels and having meals then they could have their table ready especially as not many customers. Orders taken weren’t what was served for example, asked for 1 soft boiled egg with two toasts received 2 hard boiled eggs and 1 toast! Another eg asked for natural yogurt and fruit separately then was given a fruit yogurt. Either they didn’t understand or wrote it down wrong. The lamb salmi left my mouth burning it was so spicy hot that I could not eat my meal, I was offered yogurt. I think if you’re cooking for the tourist you need to bear in mind to not make it too spicy. Lastly we think the staff quarters may have been behind our bungalow as early morning chatter and laughter was quite loud. Some of us on holiday may want a lie in especially when the weather is not so good and in no rush to wake up. Overall I would stay there again. Although I do think staff will benefit from giving the customers a little more attention and less chatting between themselves. Thank you

Very boutique feeling for a reasonable cost and definitely budget friendly property. The staff are excellent and they go out of their way to help. Menu with the all inclusive option was sufficient. My one suggestion would be for management to look into getting some new beds.

What we liked: Close to airport, spacious room, sea views, dining area. Improvements required: Service staff seemed unhappy (did they like hospitality work, need training or unhappy workplace culture?) and felt at times that we were a hindrance (the service staff unfriendly, unhelpful and felt like service was a chore). A few staff were obviously unwell (coughing and sneezing a lot) whilst working. We were also left waiting, not knowing if we would be served. When we asked a question about an order, we were not given advice but expected to know the answer. The Manager did introduce himself on the first day, helping with our bags. As we only stayed one night, we decided to eat at the hotel which was a big mistake. As noted by other reviewers the meal is overpriced and very average. My partner, a vegetarian, had a small cup of pumpkin soup, lightly coated fettuccine (no vegetables) and two small balls of ice-cream for 1450 Mauritian rupee (approx $50 AUD). Having stayed in stayed in Blue Bay previously, we recommend food at the Blue Bamboo around 8 minutes walk from the Hotel, with a great atmosphere and service and delicious meals or alternatively, if your up for a drive, suggest Le Bazilic in nearby Mahebourg, one of our best meals in Mauritius! The hotel was self was older and perhaps needed some updates however could overlook this if we had a welcoming and friendly service experience, which we had at several other holiday locations in Mauritius and Reunion Island.

Not great, cockroaches, cooked breakfast charge.
A disappointing stay overall. Check in was fine and the location is good. Found out at check in that while our booked rate included breakfast, this was only the continental and we'd have to pay to upgrade to full breakfast - which felt cheeky. The room was underwhelming. The pictures make the rooms look better than they feel in real life. As others have said they need refurbishment. Beach is very pleasant but guests from another hotel are bussed in, so it is less private than it could be. Erosion has taken effect so it no longer looks like in the pictures. We had a large cockroach issue (quantity and size) in the bathroom (which my partner is very scared of). After killing a couple we eventually went to reception and were initially given a bottle of bug spray. I pushed for them to assist, which they did. When spraying down the shower drain 5 or 6 came scuttling out causing the staff to panic and run out for more tools. At this point we decided to move hotels. I explained to the reception that we would happily pay for the two nights we had effectively used (including the night we left on), but not the next two nights. They said this would be fine but we'd need to contact expedia/hotels.com who we booked with. The hotel then did not provide the confirmation required to enable this to happen, emails went unanswered. Very poor. Other Mauritian hotels don't have cockroaches, so go elsewhere if you care about this.

True Mauritian hospitality
Astroea beach hotel is a cosy hotel managed by people who really care. They represent beautifully the legendary hospitality of Mauritian people: from the manager to the receptionist, the waiters, the chef and other people of their staff. They went above and beyond to help accommodating me throughout multiple plane cancelations due to cyclones and made me feel safe. I’ll never forget that. Food is delicious, beach is unbelievable and the whole setting really induces calm and relaxation. I chose this place for its proximity to the airport and for the fact that I wanted a comfortable way to end my trip. Mille mercis pour tout!!

Nice and quiet
The hotel is ideally located on a quiet area of tge island therefore the coral reef is in much better condition than other areas. The beach has sadly eroded. The hotel is cute and small and can be elevated to 4 stars if they give some attention to detail. So much potential. The Blue Bamboo eatery down the road is an excellent local restaurant serving delicious dishes.

The three-star hotel is acceptable. The highlight of our stay is the beach right in front, perfect for snorkeling with a fantastic sea view. The food is average, and I might not opt for this place again as the price we paid for don't match the amenities provided.

Place was ok with a small strip of the private beach. The poor service rated was the front desk guy that refuse to accept our laundry giving all kinds of excuse though the service written on the laundry was clearly to be returned the same day if we hand in in the morning, in the end my gf had to make a fuss before he relented,

Fine for a short stay
Small scale, friendly hotel. Rooms are to be expected from a more budget level hotel, meaning they're fine. The beach in front of the hotel is not as wide as you expect from the photo and it was pretty windy when we were there so I wouldn't say this is a place for a 2 week beach holiday. But - Blue Bay is walkable (long walk) or 5 mins in car + more wild Point d'Esney beach is closer. We only had 2 nights half board; food was limited and just ok. Service was very good.

We were disappointed with the accommodation upon arrival. Our room was very dirty, black hairs all over the floor and bathroom, even shaving hair in the sink and stained bedding. We complained and they did a ‘deep clean’ of which all they did was change the bedding to different stained sheets and hairs were still everywhere. It’s a 3 star but there is no excuse for a dirty room. The staff were lovely but found out they are very understaffed and have to work long hours. The food was ok but you quickly got bored of the choices available. The setting and beach was very beautiful. We found out they had a sister hotel which was 4 star and they moved us a few days later which was much appreciated and a beautiful hotel.

I thought the property overall was excellent. We were given a suite and this seemed very reasonable. The facilities are in good condition but the (British) electric shower unit was rubbish! Like many of the reviews the dining was poor and overly expensive. There wasn't sufficient quantity and frankly was just too bland! The curry we had just seemed to lack any spices! Continental breakfast was reasonable though. A small but private beach with good views.

The rooms are not together, they are build like little houses which is very nice and you have your privacy. The room is nice and big. But they do need to do a renovation for the bad. I also felt that the bedsheet and pillow were not that clean, which made me feel uncomfortable to sleep in the bed. The staff is friendly and helpful. Its a little group so it feels like a family to be there. Sometimes i felt like they push me to eat and have drinks in the hotel restaurant which was annoying. The dinner was very tasty but the portions were sadly very little. All around it was a nice stay and i would recommend again. Thank you.
