Bella Vista Mauritius

Rirn

La cadre

Central Spot good for restaurants and shops and outings

Same breakfast ( no option ) Shower pressure not the best not a great menu for dinner

Nur die Zimmergröße und der Ausblick, was mir gefallen. Honestly, what I really loved the most was the size of the room and the view. The room was very spacious, and the view was simply beautiful. Just these two things alone made my stay even more special.

Alles andere als Sauberkeit, ist einfach katastrophal. Mein Zimmer lag überall voller Frauenhaare, die Bude war sehr dreckig. Badezimmer genauso dreckig. Am Abend nach 22:00 Uhr wird die Tür unten zusein, man kommt schon raus und rein, aber irgendwie war es unangenehm, dass immer jemand kam und die Tür öffnete. Als Frühstück hat mir extrem scharfe Rührei-Eier nicht geschmeckt. Anything but clean was simply catastrophic. My room was covered in women's hair, the place was filthy. The bathroom was just as dirty. In the evenings after 10 p.m., the door downstairs is locked; you can still get in and out, but it was somehow uncomfortable having someone constantly coming and opening the door. I didn't like the extremely spicy scrambled eggs for breakfast.

I had read a lot of mixed review about this hotel before booking. Here is my honest review. At this budget this is an absolutely prefect hotel. We were given an early checkin. The stuff were extremely warm and provided us with fruits and juices and beer while we were waiting for our room. The dining area where breakfast is also served is very nice by the sea. The breakfast was descent with fruits,, bread basket, butter, eggs , tea and coffee served on each table. The tables were set up nicely. Yes there is no breakfast buffet spread, but the breakfast was filling and well done. The cleaning service was fine. Beds comfortable. And clean toilets with descent water pressure and 24 hours hot water. Bed sheets were clean. View from the balcony was great. You can sit and enjoy your beer there. Fridge in perfect working condition, coffee maker. The beach just in front is descent. You can take a dip and sit on the small strip of sand adjacent to the hotel and spend time. Lastly the staff went out of the way to accommodate our food requests. Rajan who is the main chef and the two aunties were super super warm. Cooked meals for us outside the menu for the kid. Always there to help. Overall, if you are looking at luxury then honestly you have many other 10 times to 20 times costlier than this. So please avail those. Yes there might be some delays for the eggs in the breakfast the sheets might look old (but they are clean). Overall If you are looking for a moderately to low priced one, this is one the best options and more than value for money. Everything is nearby. There is a small convenient store right next and everything is short walking distance. Its in the heart of Grand Baie.

Nothing worth mentioning. May be the lighting in the room can be a little better.

Petit-déjeuner continentale complet avec beaucoup de fruits frais Emplacement exceptionnel, Restaurant, pieds dans l’eau, donnant directement sur une plage de sable blanc

Peux devenir un Hôtel Exceptionnel si certain travaux de rénovation sont effectués.

Great position

La gentillesse du personnel que j'ai aimé et la vue sur mer

Hôtel qui demande à être rénové

TOUT LE PERSONNEL TOUT LE MONDE LE GERAND SUPER TRES RESPCTEUX AVEC NOUS LES TAXYS

RIEN

breakfast was normal ...nothing exceptional

condition of room, bathroom shower and toilet was terrible and run down...it seemed like a haunted hotel... my family and another 1 couple were the only guests in whole hotel. it seemed abandoned.

Staff very friendly and help bit of a language problem

When we booked booking.com promised to have us picked up did not happen

La plage trop jolie, pas cher du tout Et on mange bien

View

Reception

The view is excellent

Excellent location a few meters from the beach, felt like your own private beach. Hotel clean except for some really small ants that I always encountered during breakfast. Staff very polite and helpful always. Rooms are big, well appointed, comfort level above average. Would have been great if the coffee/tea station amenities were updated daily instead of just once off. Breakfast was good however it was the same everyday, with option for omelette. I am not a big Breakfast person so I feel that they should perhaps ask guests what they would like from a list of standard options (from what they usually bring) instead of bringing everything...fruits, yogurt, cheese, butter, jam, breadroll, croissant, juice all standard everyday then option for tea/coffee. It's a lot to have!! It is definitely somewhere i would recommend to family and friends.

Booking price and on the spot price was different, however there was a pregnant lady who did needful through phone and we pay the booking price, the pregnant lady was very welcoming

the location is nice, just near the beach and other businesses in town

The rooms could use a new coat of paint and a upgrade to the beds would add to the nightly stay of your customers. I also tried the tv but couldn't get any channels to come on

The property doesn't exist...and nobody answered the phone

Location and view over the bay. Restaurant with a good menu.

The reception area and unfriendly staff at the restaurant. Very slow service at the restaurant.

Location and views- rooms. Reception and communal areas reminded me of ‘ Carry on Abroad’ so was pleasantly surprised by the rooms. Great mesmerising views

Nothing major worth quibbling about

The staff were always ready to help. Very nice and warm welcome. I really appreciate that lady who is pregnant but she did her best to work on the 31 st December and 1st January to make sure that all clients have everything. I will recommend anyone going there as the place is very well located. The restaurant situated at the ground floor is next to the sea and they provide good food and a very good breakfast. I will definitely come back again. Thank you so much.

Nothing

View

Uncomfortable beds. Dried shower gel coming out of the dispenser, random bag and clothes inside the cupboard. No elevator/lift Reception has their own rate set up for Euro conversion. They don’t follow live google rate.

Location was good, close to main shopping and restaurants and overlooking the bay. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

It is an old property and some areas needed minor maintenance attention, Wardrobe door with no handle, old air con which could not be adjusted. No condiments provided.. but delivered when asked for.

Loved the view! Loved the friendly staff members!

Had a big cockroach in our room, but the rooms were kept very clean by the staff!

Very nice view of Grand Baie. (Seaside rooms and restaurant only) The staff were interactive and helpful. Breakfast simple but good.

Ants. Tiny, bitey ants. I first saw them in the bed, then elsewhere in the room, then the restaurant. Extremely annoying and quite painful. My room wasn't designed for large people. There was a gap of less than 30cm to squeeze through to the toilet, and little space to turn around.

Nice view over the bay. Clean rooms.

A little antiquated.

The shower

Location was good.

Breakfast was not very good, no variety,

Once we met the owner she couldn't be more friendly and welcoming. Breakfast cooked as requested. Given sea view adjoining rooms. Much better than the suite wed booked for our family of 5 A couple of problems were dealt with immediately Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the bay is totally lovely

Thereis a fish pool on the ground floor which seems quite lovely at first. But the smell and noise is always present.

The view was wonderful from the balcony. The breakfast was okay, same every day. They make you omelette if you want. But literally just eggs, no tomatoes, onions etc.

The staff weren't welcoming, probably because we couldn't speak fluent French. The room was really dirty and there was paint peeling off the ceiling. We got locked in the building after 10pm without being told. We were the only ones in the building and were not told what to do in a fire. We probably would have had to jump off the balcony. The shower barely sprayed any water. No coffee or tea provided in the room. No other guests were staying there and it is easy to see why.

Great view and friendly staff.

The view from our room was exceptional. Breathtaking. Directly looking onto the bay. We could watch the catamarans come and go and relax on the chairs in the balcony and watch the sunset. There was a choice at breakfast of eggs. I had a tasty omelette cooked as I like it. The view at breakfast was into the bay and very lovely. As well as omelette, i had yoghurts croissants, toast jam and cheese so plenty to eat. My husband who is vegan had a more Limited choice and had bananas and toast. The manageress was very helpful and welcoming. Our bed had lovely crisp white sheets and we had big white towels too. We had space in the room. A kettle was provided with vanilla tea and we had a fridge. We were very satisfied and loved our stay.

The furniture was a little old and tired as was the shower however at the price we paid , this was OK.

Great location and room, beautiful view from the room over the ocean. Good breakfast. Nice stuff.

On the beach!!!

Spacious. Food was excellent. Friendly staff

Too many things scattered in the lobby

Lack of communication

The view from the balcony overlooking the bay.

When I arrived at the hotel nothing was explained to me about facilities, breakfast times etc. A lady was there flagging my invoice and making sign to pay, she did not smile, nor spoke English but standing there ( I was trying with my basic French but no much interaction). I returned when the manager was there, she was rude and she over charged for my stay expressly saying that they apply a higher conversion rate at the hotel. Wifi in the room did not work most of the times, I had to ask them several times to look into this, no apologies made. Breakfast was basic, staff seems like not bothered, no word said just food laid on table. But I noticed other local guests where treated in a different manner. Hotel was run down, atmosphere was weird, you'd come back there at 8.30pm and it was already deserted. the only good thing was the view from the balcony overlooking the bay. Overall I felt unwelcome there and I was looking forward to leaving this place.

The view. Breakfast was okay, could do with more variety.

Leak in our bathroom, flooring flooded. They told us they would repair it, but no one came to do this. They said we could change rooms, a day after we complained about the leak and we were leaving the next day. Point being they had bad communication about this as multiple staff members thought we had changed rooms and would come into our room thinking we had changed. There was a power cut which they didnt let us know about. The sheets werent clean and there was a lot of dust. The smell of cigarettes lingered in the rooms. The bed frames screwed off, very outdated funiture. Mucky looking style.

Access to the beach, bar, restaurant

Good location

Messy place. Smelly fish pond inside. Locked windows in the room. No fresh air.

We liked the location of the property. It’s within walking distance of everything in Grand Baie.

The property is tired and in need of renovations. We booked a front facing room and a family room. The sea facing room has a beautiful view and it was nice sitting on the balcony looking at the boats coming and going. The family room was nice and spacious but had no balcony and looked onto the main road. It was VERY noisy at night and we were unable to sleep. The cars going by until 4am and music and activity everywhere made it impossible to sleep.

it was a fantastic stay with bella vista, truly value for money. and the staff was very supportive all the time.

the staff was very friendly and the host was always available if needed any kind of help.

Location is fantastic. Rooms and restaurant facing the harbor of Grand Baie. Rooms have everything you need. For Grand Baie in this season this is the best place in terms of value for money. Working distance from the beach and center of the town. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. To be honest I was quite impressed and if you don t want to spend too much this is the best place to go in Grand Baie.

Nothing

Good breakfast. Staffs are there to please customers for any services requested.

More coffee sachets in the host room.🙂

Location and price

Shower low eater pressure and more english speaking tv channels

Friendly staff. Superb location. Value for money Recommended for single people and for couples.

No lift

Location. It was clean.

A bit tired.

everything was perfect, thank you!!

Very unfriendly and unprofessional staff! The cleaning lady left the key to our room in the door. So anybody in Grand Baie had access to our room, because there is not even a 2 door between the street and the rooms. Not really clean and the hotel didn't see any renovations ever. The breakfast was also not good, instant powder coffee, really dry bread and croissant, we got some dirty butter and fruits. Do not let you blind by the sea facing rooms and the location, this hotel is not worth 10€ per night.

Friendly staff, spacious room and bathroom the place was very clean breakfast delicious and more than I expected.

None

Location for the view of beach .staffs are mostly elderly people and very helpful to meet your expectation at their best . Very close to grandbaie centre and public beach for island boat services.. nice beach clubs next to property for chill beer and food..dont forget enjoy local Phonix beer..

Breakfast option could be better

Its a homely place. Thinking of an expensive place to live and party, but at an affordable way, its Bella Vista. Its in Grand Baie, one of the party places of Mauritius. The staffs are coordial. The set up is amazing, just beside the beach. Sea view rooms are too good. Most importantly, on the day we were leaving, for our journey, they gave a water bottle. For free definitely. And please note, everything is costly in Mauritius. So, its the gesture that will keep this place going and will definitely recommend to others. If I go next time, Bella Vista for sure.

Actually at the cost they offered, w.r.t. other hotels, and the location they are in, nothing one can complain

The Bella Vista is in big need of renovation and a deep clean.

The restaurant is only Chinese and breakfast very limited with only an omelet every day.

very clean and comfortable

no comments

The sea view was very good, and the fact that you can hear the ocean waves from your room. Also liked the fact that the hotel provided sun beds just outside the hotel on the beach if requested. Staff were friendly. Restaurant and bar available, but only until 10pm. However, there are some great restaurants/bars next to the hotel.

Rooms need some maintenance. Been neglected for too long. Had to change rooms three times for various problems. Also rooms not cleaned very well. A shame as this hotel has a great location. Just not enough attention to the maintaining of the rooms.

very old run down has plenty potential though

rundown

Lack of professionalism. Staff & owner not cooperative. Really bad experience

Rude behaviour of staff. Service really bad

The vient the location the sympathy of everyone

Nothing

“Good location, clean. Nice balcony and helpful staff.” Breakfast was good, every day the same. they can provide a wider variety of breakfast

beach side, clean and spacious

install a safe

Breakfast was good, very helpful staff attending to all our needs.

Parking space

The breakfast was ample, with fruit, eggs toast etc. There was plenty, served by very accommodating and helpful staff. The view from our balcony was amazing looking out over the Bay.

The room was basic, and the cleaning could have been a bit more thorough but the view made up for any short falls.....

everything

location was perfect 👍 the beach is located in front of the hotel,the ladies who served the breakfast where great and trying to make you happy all the time

the washroom where a not dirty they don’t clean only come and make the bed 😩

The close proximity to other hotel we needed to go.

First of all, hope you read this carefully. This info is up-to-date. I am a hotel owner from Finland and know that sometimes there are minor issues when running a hotel. I have travelled in over 60 countries and this is the first time to write truly bad review. I have been to local guest houses and also hostels. We came yesterday late in the evening to this place and were very tired. Nobody had cleaned the room for us: sheets were stained, floors were dirty with bugs, bathroom messed by previous customer. Also the property is actually about 1 km from the premium location where they show to be on booking.com (photo) The manager Kisha is ignorant on having any chat or improving or settling anything. We needed to leave earliest thing in the first morning even though we had booked longer stay . I understand lots of small issues, but this kind of dirtiness and underestimation of customer I have never experienced in hundred of places I have stayed around the world. If you find any other places even with a way more higher price I suggest you to avoid this place. The first thing you see when you arrive is carps at the small pond by the reception. They are struggling for their life. Also truly sad was the 10 year old boy who was beated by the relative behind the bar counter. This is my true advice. Please avoid if possible.

Big respect to the evening staff….best of the best 😉
