    Tranquil Luxury !

    rating06 May 2026

    We booked 4 nights to end our holiday in Mauritius following the wedding of our daughter at another hotel. We wanted a hotel to relax and unwind after a hectic week of celebrations. we definately found this in the 20 Degrees Sud ! It is a small luxury hotel, only I believe 32 rooms, but big on service. Prior to arrival we were well supported in all our communications by Karen, what an Ambassador for both the hotel and Brand Relaise Chateux ! On arrival we were pleasently surprised to have been allocated a beach side suite, a stunning room with great views of the Bay. There is only one restaurant, but that is enough for this size hotel, with the opportunity to sit by the pool or beachside. All the staff were so polite and friendly and there was the very nice added touch that the GM, Lindley, both welcomed and ensured he said goodbye on departure, plus throughtout the stay always had time to ask how things were going. My wife is Coeliac and needs Gluten free meals, this was not an issue at all and they would always adapt or prepare an alternative if there was nothing suitable on the menu. A special thank you goes to Mohammad (very discrete and so helpful), Frederick, Laval and Reshmee, but that said, all the staff were equally helpful. We did go on the hotel boat, Lisbeth, for evening dinner, this was an experience and well corordinated. The food was delicious if you like seafood, I do. Just one point to note, "Lisbeth" only caters for 8 persons and you need to remove your shoes on boarding (leave on jetty), then part of the evening you sit on the deck for drinks, so you need to ensure comfotable clothes that allow you to sit cross legged, albeit on a cushion. The beach is small, but never got full, so always sunbeads available, and the sea is OK for swimming but in only a limited area due to shallow water and rocks. These latter comments are only to give a "heads up" if you have not visited before and does not detact from the luxury of the hotel. There are available Windsurf Sail Boards, canoes, snorkling trips and a very useful ferry which only takes 10 minutes to the town (Grand Baie) across the bay.I would highly recommend this hotel for luxury, food and relaxing surrounds, but it also fits well if you want a two destination holiday like we did ! Just book it, you wont be dissapointed. Lindley THOMEN, Directeur général at La Maison 20 Degres Sud Boutique Hotel, responded to this review Dear Doobles63,Thank you sincerely for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review following your stay with us.I am truly delighted to read that La Maison 20 Degrés Sud provided exactly the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere you were looking for after such a special family celebration. Your kind words regarding Karen are especially appreciated. She is indeed a fantastic ambassador for both the house and the Relais & Châteaux spirit, and I will make sure your compliments are personally shared with her. It was also a pleasure to read your appreciation of the personalised service provided throughout your stay. At a property of our size, we believe genuine hospitality lies in attentiveness, discretion and meaningful human connections, and I am delighted that this was reflected in your experience. Your recognition of Mohammad, Frederick, Laval and Reshmee will certainly mean a great deal to them, as will your acknowledgment of the team as a whole.I am particularly happy to know that your wife’s dietary requirements were handled with care and flexibility. Ensuring that every guest feels comfortable and thoughtfully looked after is something we consider essential.From my end it was such a pleasure to cross your path during the day and to have simple conversation. My congratulations again for the wedding of your daughter and thank you for being great ambassadors for our hotel. We very much hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to La Maison 20 Degrés Sud for another memorable Mauritian escape.My best personal regards,

    Lovely hotel, great location, superb food

    rating06 Apr 2026

    Stayed for 4 nights as a couple, our first hotel in Mauritius. There is so much to like about this hotel. It is located on the beach, on a relatively quiet road, behind a pair of fantastic old wooden doors. We weren't too sure about the first room we we shown, as it was adjacent to the restaurant and we felt it might be a tad noisy; we were moved promptly without any fuss, and our request for feather rather than foam pillows was dealt with similarly.The room was spacious, with two balconies, an outdoor shower (as well as an indoor shower) with a fabulous view over the gardens, the beach and Grande Baie. We had a half board package and ate in the restaurant every evening. The range of choices and quality of the food was really, really good. Prices are similar to a good restaurant in the UK, but worth it as everything was cooked just right, with some amazing flavour combinations. Similarly the wine list, whilst also similar if not more expensive than UK, had some great selections.Breakfast could not be faulted.The hotel has a small pool, surrounded by sunbeds; there are also sunbeds on the beach, towels are in plentiful supply, and complimentary afternoon tea and cakes are served daily.Great place to stay. Lindley THOMEN, Directeur général at La Maison 20 Degres Sud Boutique Hotel, responded to this review Dear Discover25728728784Greetings from La Maison 20 Degrés Sud where you just spent your holidays and thank you sincerely for sharing such a detailed and thoughtful review.

    Do not come here, unless you are French...

    rating01 Apr 2026

    If you are not French, do not stay here. You will be treated as a 2nd class guest.Whilst the hotel itself is fairly nice and well equiped, what becomes painfully obvious after a few days is that there are 2 tiers of guests - the French, who are engaged with warmth, smiles and non stop service; and then there is everyone else. After asking for a drinks menu, every night at dinner, multiple times - still without joy half the time, we just gave up in the end and settled for the bottled water (and before anyone jumps to a conclusion - we are not daytime drinkers, so it was not the case that we had turned up to dinner under the influence and obnoxious - i just wanted a coke most of the time).Its a shame, as it could be such an amazing experience but the service completely let's it down, and really ruined the holiday for us, by the end we couldn't wait to leave. La Maison 20 Degres Sud, at La Maison 20 Degres Sud Boutique Hotel, responded to this review Dear Frequenttravelzzzz,Greetings from La Maison 20 Degrés Sud – Relais & Châteaux where you just spent your holidays.I have taken careful note of your comments and would like to thank you for sharing your feedback. While I am pleased to read that you appreciated the hotel itself, I am truly sorry for the impression you had regarding our service.Please allow me to reassure you that we do not differentiate between our guests based on nationality. The situation you describe does not reflect the standards and values we strive to uphold, and I sincerely regret that some element of my team made you felt this way during your stay.I also apologize for the inconvenience faced when requesting the drinks menu at dinner. This is clearly not the level of service we aim to provide, and your remarks have been shared with the team for immediate follow-up.Please note that we take very seriously your feedback, and I do hope that you may give us another opportunity to better serve you in the future and to make you have a different exposure of our level of service.My best personal regards.
