Overall a very good experience - most of all due to the fantastic staff of Outrigger. So so service minded and everyone took really good care of us! This was absolutely the best service we have experienced in Mauritius.
Buffet food could definitely have been better, the changed the menu every evening, but it really look the same, tasted the same and overall reminded me of Indian food (nothing wrong with that) - 14 days with same food is a long time. The hotel has a restaurant down by the sea, it was good and the chef Ashok really came through and made us special dishes and it was amazing. In the day, there could be more children menu from the bar, but on.

This place could have been 5* but long time ago. I stayed at 4 different hotels during the last 20 days, and this was on the edge of a 3-4* star.
Rooms need renovation. Some pictures attached. Service mediocre, one poor guy for all pool area all days, no beeping solution to order etc. Not fresh bread at breakfast at all days, wifi at room sometimes not working. Espresso at breakfast came from a machine (undrinkable) I can go on with more details, but as a summary, do not book if you really want a 5* experience.
Some area of the resort seemed to be quite empty, or desserted, never reached the pavilion area. Spa was under renovation and in general this resort was not a good experience for us.
Please put some more lights in the rooms ! ceiling lights or something !

A beautiful beach and great options for pools, especially loved Plantation Club where afternoon tea is a must. The Edgewater Restaurant is excellent and Bar Bleu good for casual meals though options limited. The spa treatments were great.

My partner and I stayed at the Outrigger Beach Resort from mid-late January. Overall we enjoyed our time both in Mauritius and at the hotel, but there are a few things I think it is important to note about the hotel if you’re planning on staying there.
1. It didn’t feel 5* to us. Possibly when it was newly constructed it might’ve passed as one but many areas are in need of renovation and updates - from the tired rooms and bathrooms to the lobby and guest toilets. Lower your expectations before arriving.
2. It is expensive! I believe this might just be a Mauritius thing in general and not just this hotel but something to be mindful of. Food and drink aren’t cheap and more expensive than the UK. For example a soft drink (e.g. Coca Cola) is around £3.50 - £4 for a small glass. Plan extra spending money, even if you’re on an all inclusive package (there are extra charges for quite a few meals/drinks).
3. The food and drinks aren’t 5* quality. The buffet is okay, lots of choice and some good dishes but can be hit and miss and repetitive. Not worth the money in our opinion but choices outside the hotel are limited from what we could tell, although we didn’t explore the local area much due to rainy weather conditions.
4. Pack a LOT of suncream, and when you think you’ve got enough pack some more. You can buy it from the hotel shop but it will set you back £35 .
5. The beach and pool area are genuinely the best part of this hotel. If you like snorkelling you’ll be just fine with

Overall it was a good stay. Breakfast was good, dinner had some really good tasting options and some not so good. If I had to change one thing it would ne for the walkways to be concrete instead of sand. The walkways would get muddy and also it means you always got sand in your shoes even when dressing up for dinner.

Great value for the money! Outrigger was a pleasant stay for us. We had half board and the dinners were excellent, great food! Drinks albeit a bit pricy but it’s an island.. The staff was very friendly, professional and helpful. The beach was lovely and the veiws stunning. Plenty of activities like petanque and kayaks.
I read the negative reviews before choosing this hotel - which I’m glad I didn’t take any further notice on. Yes the facilities are not super updated but they are fresh and rooms are well cleaned and you don’t even think about that while you’re there because everything else is great and peaceful.

What a beautiful resort with top notch, friendly service, unbeatable food, excellent activities and facilities, and an incredible beach. We were taken the best care of by the staff, and especially Kunal from the Plantation Club who went out of his way to make our stay memorable, including making custom and delicious cocktails for us, and Vashil from Mercado. Thanks for the unforgettable time! We appreciated and loved being here.

We love staying at Outrigger - the place needs a bit of an update in general - new aircons in the rooms and gym - but the staff is worth everything else! Thanks to Roby, Jarvin, Hans, Xavier, Grenadine, Angelique, Shambam and the Kids Club - as long as the staff stays we will come back :0)

A lovely hotel. Can walk along the beach or stay at one of the pools. The food is excellent and caters for many tastes. Water is clear and good for snorkelling. Some free water sports including paddle boarding. Glass bottom boat runs twice daily - be sure to book by 9am though. The staff throughout the hotel are so very friendly and helpful. Robbie at concierge offers great advice for tours to take, Megha and Arvesh at reception very helpful, Yan and lots of staff at Mercado and Bar Bleu are great! Close to Heritage golf club if you like a game of golf! Short ride to Heritage Nature Reserve for some quad biking or buggy through the reserve to see the country and red deer, wild boar and swim in the waterfall pool.

Staff doesn't understand instructions. We had booked using two websites for three nights, and same was conveyed at reception. Staff still came to our room asking us to check out after first night. Usually any 5 star hotel reception will call and ask if we are ready to check out instead of directly sending people to force us, and this is when we had already extended our stay. You will have to beg them for free water and until you don't finish the existing stock , you won't get new water bottle. There is zero flexibility in check out time, you have to pay MUR 2000 if you check out after 12. Very hard to get food , as everything has to be preordered the previous day or you have to go for Buffet

A great Resort for a perfect vacation. Stayed for 6 nights at the Junior Suite. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Got a 50% discount voucher at the Spa which was a good surprise. The Beach is extremely clean. Breakfast was a pretty decent layout with options of Indian, Asian and Continental / European. The Guest Relations was very helpful in giving and helping decide the recreational options for us. The Resort is conveniently located - 45 mins drive from the Airport. The only drawback I felt was that the rooms do not have foot-mats to wipe off the feet and footwear before entering the room which just makes the room a little too sandy.

It was heaven! Such a lovely hotel. The best food we ate in Mauritius. Wonderful staff, particularly the chefs who were so accommodating with our dietary requirements. Constant cleaning and maintenance of the property is done very discretely. I’d highly recommend doing half board as the buffet is incredibly extensive and delicious. Brilliant kids club, and overall such a welcoming and accommodating place to take young children. Would love to return!

First of all I contacted hotel.com to inform the hotel about my late reservation, upon arrival the room was not ready, it was ready around 2:40pm. Drinks &towels were offered upon arrival and one of the staff gives information about the resort.The room is well-equebed but outdated. Old furniture and stained curtins, toilet door without lock, but overall clean.The room that was offered in first floor with a view at a family pool and setting beach area. The A.C. was good, electricity was off couple of times for few second..Room service is slow for a 5* resort and sometimes no one answer the call!!The wayer bottles that were offered has to be consumed to be replaced with new one!! Guest should have the right to drink the bottle of waters any time.Breakfast was excellent. First day tea was served cold and I had to call to be replaced. But in general was the best about the resort. The setting area at the beach is small next to family poor compard to the number of guests. The hotel agree to allow 10m late check out so this is highly appreciated.

I was very disappointed with the housekeeping and cleaning on the first couple of days at the resort. I must say that this was addressed when I raised the issue and then new housekeeping staff, Dixsha & Avisha took over and that improved.The staff at this resort collectively are excellent, friendly and very responsive.My family & I are avid travelers and have been to dozens of hotels all over the world and the staff at the Outrigger are the quickest to respond to any request that we have ever come across. Excellent service

Beautiful hotel, staff is not very polite except very few. Food at the main restaurant is ok.
