Cosy staying at black river, great value!

We went to le gite de bonheur for 3 nights as a young couple and loved the atmosphere, the cosiness and tidyness. The hosts are very friendly, caring and give you advice what to visit in Mauritius. This was a perfect place to discover the black river region of the island.

Very homely atmosphere. If you enjoy some quiet moments in a magnificent location with a view on both the lagoon and the mountain, it is highly recommended.

Beau, convivial et confortable

Magnifique chambres d'hôte avec un accueil plein de prévenance. Propose à la fois des services de restauration et toutes les facilités pour faire sa propre cuisine. Pour trouver il est préférable d'avoir un GPS.
