The hotel

Not just a hotel, Zilwa Attitude is more of an experience, embracing the life of the islanders. With a relaxed village feel, it is packed with authentic Mauritian experiences so you’ll truly feel like one of the natives after a week or two here. In a beautiful location, overlooking endless stretches of sandy beach and with stunning views of no less than five islands, it is a slice of heaven. Just a few minutes away by boat, or a short paddle, is Grand Zil where you can while away a few hours on a lounger and perhaps tuck in to a barbecue lunch — or enjoy a rejuvenating massage on the smaller Ti Zil. Rooms are inspired from traditional seaside bungalows and are contemporary in design but rustic too with rough white-washed walls and brushed cement floors. Embracing bright colours, there's a choice of room types, as well as family rooms, apartments and suites by the sea. Book a treatment at the world-class spa and take some time to chill on a day bed in the relaxation garden whilst listening to the twitter of birdsong. As you kick back, the little ones will be kept happy at the kids' club, with a fun garden, a games room and a large boat to explore and escape the sun ! There are six restaurants at Zilwa, offering cuisines from European to Creole, Indian and Asian, and the All Inclusive dine-around experience means you can discover wonderful varied meals each day of your stay.

We got home last Tuesday. The hotel is fantastic. And the staff wonderful. A few tips - The catamaran trip doesn’t sail which was disappointing as I was told by Boat House it did. A long day and the hosts on the boat seemed disinterested mostly. Recommend you do boat trips elsewhere. The only disappointment. - The tea and lunch at Tabba J was so good! So were the staff there. - Grand Zil BBQ was brilliant and the food great - Manao. A must! - beaches are great and service very good. Yes it’s shallow but great for a cool off. - all food offerings are great - bar staff fantastic - rooms were excellent and exceeded expectations We absolutely loved this place. Beach hawkers: Avoid Big John, cashmere guy great and authentic, so too Bilal who sells bowls and jewellery. I’ll be back for sure. The best holiday I’ve ever had. Special shout out to Danny at the bar, and Rosemary and Sharmeen in Karay restaurant. You are stars. Oh and Kevin who plays mean table tennis! Thank you all. Read less

It was a short but wonderful stay. Thank you amrish. You are amazing and I can see that you enjoy your work. The rooms are beautiful, clean and spacious. The beach here is one of the most beautiful on the island. The hotel has a nice peaceful atmosphere and there are incredible sunsets. I believe that we will come back here again....
