JN sunflower residence

Maybe some bottle of water in the room upon arrival. When you're not used to buying water, it can be something you forget to buy.

J'ai passé une semaine merveilleuse. Soorekha était tout le temps à ma disposition pour des conseils, réservations activités et taxi. Emplacement conforme à la description, petit village de pécheurs locaux. En face du lagon et à 10 minutes en scooter la plage du morne et de kite surf ! et logement à 2 minutes d'une plage idyllique " la prairie beach" (voir photo). Je recommande !

La zona es un tanto tenebrosa por la noche. Pagar en efectivo para un turista es difícil porque no está acostumbrado a manejar la moneda local. No obstante para pasar 1 noche a poco precio está bien.

Ellas son muy majas y muy atentas, el sitio es muy bonito aunque si vas fuera de temporada no hay absolutamente nada, está todo cerrado y no hay ni siquiera un sitio donde cenar

El agua caliente de la ducha tenía muy poca presión y el desayuno, muy básico y que había que pagar a parte, nos pareció un caro para lo que era

Die Besitzerinnen waren super! Jedes Anliegen wurde direkt behandelt und sie konnten mir tolle Tipps geben. Die Gastfreundschaft war genial. Ich habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt.

Очень отзывчивая и вежливая хозяйка. Кормила вкусно. Помогла распланировать отдых, любое вопросы решала на счет экскурсий и аренды мопеда, ещë часть разменяла. И самое главное, можно было по прибытию оплатить, даже скидку сделала.

До пляжа нужно добираться либо на такси, либо на своëм транспорте. Автобусы до ближайшего пляжа Ле-Морн не ходят.

Pension à 5-10 min en voiture du départ pour le morne brabant. En face de la plage et possible coucher de soleil côté morne brabant Les chambres côté route donnent sur les arbres et la plage, c’est très sympa. Par contre la route est très bruyante, boules quies indispensables. et ambiance boîte de nuit un dimanche soir à côté… Les restos sont dispo en voiture (village touristique de la gaulette à 10min par exemple). Possible de garer la voiture sur le trottoir, sinon parking de la plage plus loin. Pas vraiment d’interactions avec les habitants sur nos 3 jours. Grands espaces communs si vous voulez faire la cuisine. Douches communes pour 2 des chambres. Température de l’eau difficilement réglable.

Space and cleanness

Noise from road and roosters

The residence was very comfortable, clean and cozy. There was a welcoming vibe of peace. The owners were warm and very nice!

Nothing

I had a very unpleasant stay at this property. I booked for a one night stay for 2 people from Thursday 14 May 2026 to Friday 15 May 2026. When we arrived at the property, the owner's daughter assisted us with check in and payment for one night stay had to be made in cash while checking in which was fine for me. I checked in the accomodation on Thursday 14 May 2026 at around 4pm. Upon check-in, the owner's daughter assisted us with the check-in and payment for one night (€35) was made by cash as requested by the residence. The owner's daughter demanded that we pay tourist tax for two people, even though I am Mauritian (i hold a Mauritian passport and Mauritian ID card). I explained the owner's daughter as per Mauritius Revenue Authority, it's only my partner (non mauritian) who has to pay tax not me as I am a mauritian citizen living abroad. The owner's daughter further added since I made the booking from Australia and I included country of residence as Australia, that's why I will be charged tourist tax. I explained the owner's daughter that I live in Australia so obviously my country of residence will be Australia and not Mauritius but she keep on insisting that I pay my tourist tax of €3. She stated booking.com will charge her the €6 (€ 3 for myself and €3 for my partner) for tourist tax when she submit her monthly report to booking.com. I informed her the tourist tax is payable to Mauritius Revenue Authority and not booking.com as booking.com has nothing to do with tourist tax in Mauritius. She asked me to review the €3 tourist tax refund with booking.com, for myself being a mauritian citizen (see screenshot attached). After i made the payment of €41 in cash for the room including €6 for tourist tax for 2 people, I noticed the room was dirty and not cleaned properly (sand on the floor and rubbish bin hasn't been collected, no toilet paper and no bath towels).

Ubicación cercana a la playa. Habitación cómoda y buena recepción de la dueña.

El desayuno puede mejorar (demasiado simple).

Goede locatie .lieve eigenaren !

Niks

Proximité du Morne Brabant . Accueil très sympathique !

Everything

The owners were very friendly and helpful. Since there aren’t many taxis in the area, they kindly provided transportation multiple times, even late at night and early in the morning, at very reasonable rates.

přístup majitelky byl ve všech směrech perfektní. Vaření večeří a snídaní, taxi kdykoliv jsme potřebovali třeba na pláž nebo nakoupit, půjčeni auta na celodenní výlet a odvoz do další destinace. Vždy vše proběhlo velmi vstřícně.

This place is rather good for the price. Don't expect a 5-star hotel, but for budget traveller you will get all you need: a clean room with A/C and private bathroom, big open common space and fully equipped kitchen. Close to le Morne beach and other Southern points of interest. Evidently I wouldn't want to stay here for the whole holiday, but still it is a good option for 1-2 day stop. There is a car park just oppisite the property and a small kiosk nearby.

I guesss you can't find any bars-cafes in the area, but some street food stalls are opened at daytime.

L emplacement est au top pour faire le morne. Le coucher de soleil est magique. La propriété est tres bien L accueil est tres bien Je recommande

Der Host war super und hat einem bei allem geholfen. Hat mir eine Tour gebucht und mir Tipps gegeben. Frühstück war lecker. Zimmer war sehr groß, mit einer top Terrasse.

In der Gegend ist nicht viel los, auch nicht wirklich Restaurants, man sollte ein Auto haben.

Vriendelijke ontvangst, mooi uitzicht vanaf balkon en lekkere stoelen.

Sehr gute Lage 100m vom meer. Die Besitzerin hat uns sehr geholfen. Sie hst für uns Ausflüge organisiert und uns nach borden den Ineln mit gebracht. Sehr fämiliere Atmosphere.

Hilfbereitschaft. Nette Leute. Die Lage ist super.

Bel endroit avec vue sur la baie. Appartement spacieux. Propriétaire très sympathique et serviable.

Tout était très bien

Nette Eigentümer, wenn gewünscht gutes Essen.

Liegt direkt an einer Hauptstraße. Zu laut.

A friendly base to explore a beautiful area. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Sometimes road noise was noticeable - hardly a major problem.

L'emplacement est calme et proche de tout, à quelques minutes à pied ou en voiture. L'accueil est exceptionnel ! Nous avons passé un super séjour

La sympathie des propriétaires

Gentillesse , humour, disponibilité de notre hôtesse Cuisine ou possibilité de demander un repas du soir cuisiné par nos hôtes . Plage et promenade par la mer et la mangrove jusqu au départ du sentier du Morne Brabant Plage à quelques minutes à pied loin des touristes du bout de la presqu’île .

Close to Le Morne. Well equiped kitchen.

Not a nice beach, nor neiberhood. Whole night either street dogs are barking or roosters scream ( at night ???) . Naftaline smell and balls in the room.

The accommodation is in a good location for excursions in the southern part of the island. The owners are friendly and helpful. Upon arrival we could choose which room we liked better. The room was not luxurious but it was sufficient for our needs. You can park on the grass across the street or you can also drive your car right in behind the gate at the accommodation.

We were a bit bothered by the smell in the room, which we had to air out every time, and also the low water flow. The hot water flowed only after about 3 minutes. The water ran either hot or cold, nothing in between.

On the whole island, this was the only place where we felt like home. The hostess is very kind and cheerful, she extended our day by a few hours while we waited for a taxi. To get to the most beautiful beaches of Le Morne you have to take a 40-minute walk along a wild beach and go through shallow water - unforgetable adventure! I recommend it! I would love to come back with my family, there is a playground right in front of the house by the beach. Le boulette bought on the road are delicious.

Without a car, it is difficult to shop for fresh vegetables and fruit in this part of the village.

The shared kitchen was stylish and it was a nice place to meet other accommodated people. The owner was very friendly and nice. The lady who cleaned the house every day was very friendly too.

The oven didn't work.

Fantastic location - right by the ocean, next to Le Morne mountain, few people on the beach. The room has a very comfortable bed, refrigerator, and air conditioning. Fully equipped kitchen, very good water pressure, hot water at any time. The staff is invisible, it feels like I'm at home - and they're very helpful! They even washed our motorcycle without asking us when we accidentally got into a big mud puddle :( And their towels are super huge - it was so convenient to take to the beach :)

Nothing

Comfortable, pratical

They treat foreigners differently from Mauritian, and foreigners get better treatment, The host even said to us, " akoz sa mm nou pa louer r Mauritian."

I love this guesthouse! Excellent value, and even more so than the accommodations, the host is a true delight at JN Sunflower Residence. I've never felt more welcomed, and the entire place felt warm, homey, everything I needed was there, I was in a room with a balcony overlooking the relatively busy road which was a bit noisy but double pane windows solved that issue, and it was very pleasant to see local folks and families enjoying the park and beach directly across the street over the course of the weekend. I could hear music from other properties or cars sometimes but it was pleasant also and quieted down after maybe 9:30. I was able to walk to some very tasty meals as well (but the restaurants close early!! some stop at 4pm!!) The AC worked great and was much appreciated, guests are free to use the kitchen too, and the shared bathroom was very clean and readily available. The other guests were very pleasant to interact with as well.

I had a hard time finding it, and I couldn't call because I had no cell service yet. I had to ask strangers to call for me, it was quite stressful because my phone was running out of battery and there was no phone charge capability in the rental car. There are no house numbers, nor a sign, and the hosts finally gave me a landmark and visual indicator that made sense (it was across from a children's playground near the Government school, and had certain features on the gate.) Once I found it, all was well.

Hospitality

Low water pressure in the shower

Clean, host was very kind

Washroom

Exceeded my expectations. Wonderful host and super helpful.

Quiet place, opposite to children park

Not clean, flies in washroom

Friendly host and her doughter.

Not enough parking for all guests. Expensive breakfast.

Great location-opposite side of the street is beach. Host also provides possibility to have breakfast or lunch - owner will prepare it by herself. Recommend to use this option - very tasty food!

Very friendly owners. Along the main road with sea view. Meals can be arranged with additional payment. Stayed on the unit at the ground floor which was very comfortable.

Wish the bathroom has floor to ceiling walls

Nice little village

Not much to do exept for hiking mount le morn (other mountains are private, no entry). At least in low season problematic to get a dinner if you have no car.

Good location for kite surfing for Le Morne. Simple facilities and lovely hosts.

Very basic and a little run down - but for the price very good value. Took me a while to realise the hot water takes a long time to come through.

Cleanness

Location was perfect, we even had our own parking , and we really felt like at home , the owners are so nice couldn’t wish better , you can even use the kitchen in the back ..

In our first room we had lizard and cockroach but the owner came right down and changed us room so nothing to complain we laughed about it later haha

Really good location, close to Le Morne beach and mountain. Lagonn Island with a beach is also very close. The west side of the island where you can watch the sunset. Very friendly and lovely hosts who prepared great tasty food. The owners of the house will treat you like their own.

A Family place with a lot of aime and „ambiance“. The first place out of six all over the island, where the hoste is really taking care about you. Thanks a lot for all the services.

It is a really nice place with really nice people. They have bikes and a kayak and try to help you with everything. Would recommend coming here <3

Location was exceptional and host was very pleasant

The rooms need better cleaning. Dust on the floor and on furniture.

Fabulous location. Host and hostess extremely helpful. Both offer a taxi service and tours which was great.

Everything was good.

Nice and clean

Everything was very good. Super breakfast with amazing coffee. Very lovely family which provides this accommondation.

There was nothing bad. We were very happy there.

The staff / family Good value for money

Noisy , road

I absolutely loved tjis place the owners we super super nice

Nothing

the accommodation is essentially a room (in my case very spacious) with the entire remaining apartment shared with the other guests. The value for money is unbeatable if we also consider that you are close to all points of interest. The sunset just outside the apartment is beautiful

...that the other guests or the inhabitants of the house ate and drank from the shopping I had done and which I had placed in the fridge in a closed bag.

There are 3 apartments in total, we had the one on the ground floor and right side. The room was clean, with two beds, ac, anti moskito socket, kitchen. Well situated just next to Le Morne beach where a lovely sunsets happen.

Not definitely a negative, however owner accepts only cash.

Wonderful location on a quiet beach looking out at Le Morne Brabant. It was so nice to stay outside of the general luxury tourist area. The village is charming and one of the highlights of my trip. The owner, Soorekha, is warm and helpful. I truly felt at home and looked after while I was there. The room was lovely and the terrace gave incredible views of the water. It was a wonderful stay.

Nothing

Location is okay to Le Morne if you have your own car.

There is no fresh air as when you open the window the mosquitoes come inside. When you close the windows the room is not avilable for fresh air. There should be some mosquitos filter. İt can be more clean however it is countryside of mauritius so do not expect more. Thee is place to put clothes. There is nothing to hang on wet towels.or clothes after sea activity.

A wonderful place and warm and charming people at a level I did not know. They took care of everything for me at any hour even for special requests beyond the usual. Everything is very clean and tidy and well-equipped, a large and comfortable bed, there are sitting areas and a pleasant and large balcony facing the beach. The location is excellent, right on the beach and accessible to public transportation. A supermarket is a few minutes away by bus. Soorekha and Navin are lovely people, they treated me just like a family member, professionals and know how to recommend trails according to the nature of my trip, guide and help me get there, organize guided tours for me when I needed them and helped me personally with things I needed more than usual and continued to be there for me even after that I left and when I needed help at every hour.

Location excellent.

It was all good for me

Welcoming

Find the place

Good staff

No hot water

One of the best stays in Mauritius. Best meals I had in Mauritius!!! Amazing, thank you so much.

Soorekah was very open and welcoming, helping me to arrange my trip around the south of Mauritius, offering to drive places, and even cooking a delicious Mauritian meal!

It's a bit far from the main beach area, but the bikes they have available to rent work great for this!

very nice and welcoming!

the owners are very kind and super friendly
