Awesome room on a top floor with seaview. You can see sunset from the spacious balcony. The room was clean. Air condition worked well. The staff was very friendly. They helped with taxi and tour reservations. Tip: hiking the Tamarin Waterfalls route with guide is highly recommended. Breakfast was ala carte and delicious. We ate every dinner at hotel. Creolean cuisine is worth for ordering! Pool was nice. Beach is right next to the hotel and there are sunbeds for guests. Overall great getaway romantic hotel with human touch. Not too big, not too small. Would go again!

Disappointing Stay at The Bay

We stayed at The Bay for 3 nights as part of a longer vacation. Unfortunately, the service was lacking, the staff were unhelpful and misleading, and their English skills were limited. On day 3, after placing the cleaning request sign on our door, our room was finally cleaned. However, upon our return, we found that neither the toilet nor the shower had been properly cleaned, and the dirty towels were still on the floor. This was especially frustrating as our room had not been cleaned at all on day 2, despite the request sign being displayed. The food in the restaurant is decent, but you quickly become dependent on it since there are no real dining alternatives in the surrounding area.

Väldigt mysigt guesthouse med suveränt läge vid stranden. Personalen otroligt gulliga och hjälpsamma. Rummet standard var enklare än förväntat och var äldre och mindre charmigt än på bilderna. Vi hade rum på första våningen med utsikt över havet och poolen, terrassen trevlig men blev väldigt varm under dagen utan skugga och ingen fläkt i taket. Badrummet har en skjutbar vägg mot sovrummet vilket inte var så praktiskt och trevligt när en sitter på toaletten. Badrummet hade bara en liten spegel med väldigt dåligt ljus. Maten höll väldigt hög kvalitet och restaurangen var välbesökt av traktens boende så både lunch och middagsreservation behövdes varje dag för att få ett bord, även som gäst på hotellet. Stranden lugn och fin, vattnet kristallklart. Många båtar ankrade precis utanför hotellet så man fick bada mellan båtarna men det gick bra. Poolen blev väldigt grumlig när det hade regnat och ingen gjorde rent botten så mycket sand låg i hörnen. Överlag ett väldigt trevligt ställe med familjär stämning där maten och läget övervägde den något låga standarden på rummet och lobbyn. Restaurangen hade suveränt läge ut mot havet.

Eine sehr schöne, übersichtliche und vor allem phänomenal gelegene kleinere Unterkunft direkt am Strand von Tamarin (La Preneuse). Vor Ort gibt es alles, was man braucht, von verschiedenen Sitz- und Liegegelegenheiten an Pool und Strand über das wirklich sehr gute Restaurant am Abend bis hin zu gelegentlich dargebotener Live-Musik (ein Gesangs- und Gitarrenduo am Samstagabend, wirklich toll!). Der Service bedient an jedem Platz, dadurch, dass auch hotelfremde Gäste Restaurant und Terrasse besuchen, dauert es manchmal ein wenig. Es gibt keinen Grund, das Hotel zu verlassen (sofern man keine Entdeckerpläne hat), wenn man sich hauptsächlich entspannen und die Sonnenuntergänge genießen will. Wir hatten ein tolles Zimmer mit direktem Meerblick und konnten den Strand und den Sonnenuntergang auch von unserer Terrasse aus beobachten. Die offenen, nur mit Schiebetüren abgetrennten Badräumlichkeiten sind vielleicht etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber alles im allem ist es eine sehr angenehme, ordentliche und luxuriös anmutende Location, ohne abgehoben zu wirken. In der Ecke von Tamarin bis Flic en Flac können wir das Hotel bedenkenlos jedem ans Herz legen, der Wert auf Strandnähe und eine gute Versorgung legt (gerade auch, da im Winter viele Geschäfte/Restaurants und Imbisse in der Stadt früh schließen oder gar nicht erst öffnen).

Séjour fabuleux à The Bay.

La restauration face à l’océan est variée et raffinée. Quant aux activités proposées, elles sont elles aussi diverses avec notamment possibilité de faire une excursion en mer pour nager avec les dauphins et snorkeling au lever du soleil, juste magnifique. Bref je recommande ce lieu où nous espérons retourner lors d’un prochain séjour à Maurice

È stata un'esperienza straordinaria, addirittura superiore alle aspettative. L'hotel è un vero gioiello: poche camere, un'atmosfera intima, estremamente pulito e curato in ogni dettaglio. Si ha la sensazione di essere a casa, il che contribuisce a creare un ambiente molto rilassante. Il ristorante è altrettanto raffinato, con un'atmosfera romantica e una vista mozzafiato sul mare: assistere al tramonto mentre si cena è un'esperienza che difficilmente dimenticheremo. Un ringraziamento speciale a tutto il personale, sempre gentile e sorridente, in particolare alla Sig.ra Emily e allo Chef Jonathan, che ci ha deliziato con le sue prelibatezze. Consiglio vivamente questa struttura a chiunque voglia visitare Mauritius: si trova in una posizione ideale, a breve distanza dalle principali attrazioni e dalle spiagge più belle.
