Had a wonderful 10 day stay at Chantauvent. Behind the hotel is Blue Bay beach, one of the best beaches in Mauritius. Great opportunity to snorkel and see marine life. Some decent restaurants nearby and airport is only 10 mins away. Staff were helpful and friendly and the room was in good condition

Amazing 4 days
We had room 6 with a bed and large enclosed patio with a clear view directly on to the sea. Couldn't be closer. The ladies looked after reception, cleaning and dinner service very well. The chef's chicken curry really good. Pizzas at the cute Spot cafe in the garden room section of the complex are a must for anyone in the area. The guy who controls watersports ewuipment very helpful. 4 given for condition as the sliding windows and patio entrance door of the seafront room we were in has been weathered, which is understandable. Nothing to put one off being there for that amazing position and at a reasonable price. Absolutely wonderful snorkelling within 5 metres of water directly in front. Bliss.

Cockroaches
Worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The place is infested with ticks and cockroaches, with stray cats living in the roof above the kitchen. The first night I was here I woke up in the middle of the night with my eye bleeding because a tick that had attached itself to my eye lid, from the bedding. The room I stayed in had an ant infestation in the bathroom, there was black mould on the shower curtains and there were also giant cockroaches in the room. I asked for another room at checkin but was told this is what I’d paid for! I tried to get help one evening after i found a massive cockroach, but this place closes at 9pm, and despite the website saying there is reception & security there was no one at all available. I phoned and text every number I could find, and rang doorbells, but you are completely on your own here between 9pm and 8am. I also got sick after eating lunch here. The manager and the director are both aggressive, and when I complained he asked me how I should fix his roof, or what other pest control I suggest he use, like this was my problem to fix. I was told as I’d booked a cheap room I got what I paid for!!!! And they wouldn’t refund me because I’d probably still write a bad review, like that’s the reason you should refund someone in this situation. Speaking with some locals after I check out they alI confirmed it’s a super old hotel with many problems, don’t be fooled by the apparent charm of the pictures.

This is a fantastic little guest house. The location is in a quiet residential area on the beach. One side of the hotel (beach side) faces the Indian Ocean and, across the road, is the garden side. Both sides have their charms. The garden side is quieter than the beach side due to the sound of the strong winds from the ocean. This is a place for those who value calm, quiet, serenity and nature. The staff are incredibly kind and I felt very much at home. Karine (the manager), Wendy, Aurélie, and Nyoulian who work the reception were all very kind and accommodating. I have special dietary needs at breakfast and the cook made special food at no cost just for me.
