Pointe aux Canonniers Hotels from $55

Fabulous hotel, great staff, small but well serviced. Free bikes to get around. Great breakfasts. Wine expensive.

The 3 bedroom villa was located about 10 minutes from local beaches. It was on a quiet road which felt central to local amenities. The villa offered great accommodation for our family needs with terrace, garden, pool and tennis court. It was extremely clean and serviced daily. Staff were very friendly. We really enjoyed our stay which was very relaxing and would definitely recommend to family and friends. The villa position also felt private with parking and safe.

This accommodation is located very close to the fabulous Mon Choosy Beach. About two miles of lovely white said.sand flanked by shady walkways though trees which home to flocks of wild birds.. There is no hotels fronting it and it is devoid of coconut umbrellas. The beach is favoured by Mauritanian families who flock to it at the weekend set up picnic tables, chairs sometimes carpets and small tents and enjoy a picnic with the extended family. Some bring their musical instruments so there is song and dance. Afterwards there is very little litter. The accommodation provides a two ring hob microwave kettle, adequate for simple meals. The breakfast which is served on your balcony consists of three fruits (banana , pineapple and another ), bread jam, croissants, tea, instant coffee.and yoghurt The swimming pool is lovely and is a good spot to. watch the sun set, creating a backdrop of golds.pinks and blue for men fishing standing on black volcanic rocks and the nearby Hindu Shrine. Manager is very friendly, as are all the staff, and is willing to provide info about local buses, and tours. A visit to the national park in the South of the island is a must do. We had a few showers but on the whole the weather was excellent.

We have just returned home to the UK after 10 blissful days staying at 20 Degrees Sud. I would describe it as a small boutique hotel with the décor and feel of the colonial era and at times it does feel like you have been transported back to the 19th century when you are sitting in a rattan chair by the pool having your cocktail served by a liveried waiter, but of course it has all the modern facilities you could want. We stayed in one of the superior beachfront rooms, although in our case it was actually beach facing rather than beachfront, but it was very spacious with a large balcony and queen sized bed and we couldn’t fault it. I understand the standard rooms are quite compact so it would be worth comparing space against price before making your booking. The private beach facing the bay is small but wonderfully maintained and they supply a free boat taxi service to Grand Baie town several times a day and also include snorkelling trips to the reef at 10am and a range of canoes, paddle boards and a small sailing catamaran for customers’ use. There is also the Lady Lisbeth which is a 100 year old pleasure boat moored on their jetty which can be hired for romantic dinners – at a price. We opted for half board which is recommended as the hotel is situated in a mainly residential area and there are no restaurants or shops nearby. Dinner can be taken in the restaurant overlooking the beach or on the terrace by the pool (often accompanied by local musicians) and each meal

Nice place to be as a family , only needs to improve on menus

Great hotel - lovely location (although missing a good swimming beach) with lovely views of Coin de Mire. The rooms are needing refurbishment. Lovely staff - always ready to help! Check out took 30minutes though ( a bit long ). Food was delicious and plentiful! All Inclusive option is recommended :)

Had a fantastic stay .. nice to be outside the huddle of grand baie .. it was the perfect stay. Thank you. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. See you again.

We have stayed here 3 times in the past 10 years. Excellent value for families. Clean rooms and spacious "villa" style apartments with living room and full kitchen. Nice pool, bar and restaurant. The half board with breakfast is a good combination. The hotel has a sandy beach with sunbathing and fun beach activities but it tends to be windy in winter (NE exposure). The pool is very nice and great place to relax and convenient to the villas. There is a spa that provides a peaceful escape from other activities. The hotel staff is very knowledgeable about activities in the area and can make local arrangements for rental car, day trips, or sightseeing. They are very helpful and pleasant (particularly Jennifer at the front desk), and arranged a training session and open water dive for myself and my daughter...

We stayed for 2 nights at Esprit Libre. We had breakfast, lunch and one evening meal and all our meals were excellent. The small pool was a welcome haven after temperatures of 27 to 30 degrees. We had a junior suite and it was very modern, spacious and very comfortable. Friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. The free WiFi was especially appreciated - we were able to log on easily and quickly from outside (pool area, bar/restaurant) as well as from our room. Highly recommended.
