The hotel

Long Beach just oozes cool — it combines carefree, elegant living with a blend of contemporary architecture and tropical landscape. A playground resort by day and night, it's all about music, art, food and wellbeing. At the heart of the resort is the piazza, with restaurants, bars and shops surrounding the chic central square. If sports are on your agenda, you’re in luck, there’s plenty here to tempt you both on land and sea. Located on the longest, widest stretch of white-sand coastline in Mauritius, it’s a beach lovers paradise. While away the hours by one of the three pools or in a hammock under the shade of a palm tree, or be pampered at the Cinq Mondes Spa with its relaxation area overlooking the gardens and pond. The dining options are varied at Long Beach, ensuring all tastes are catered for. Kids have their own club, with activities including arts and crafts, plus beach barbecues around the campfire for the teens.

A stunning resort in an amazing location! The beach is beautiful, with coral and tropical fish that you can spend hours snorkelling around. Rooms are spacious and quite private. The restaurants were all great and we had some amazing dishes - particularly in Chopsticks and in Tides on the fish night where there was an incredible choice of seafood and some great entertainment. The best quality was the service where it seemed every single member of the staff were genuinely interested in giving us the best possible stay! In particular I'd like to mention Dani & Yudish at the Tides restaurant, Nilesh at Sapori, Shika & Nadia in guest services, Aidah at Chopsticks and Samia who served us multiple times at breakfast. We'll definitely be back! Read less

A wonderful dinner experience at Hasu restaurant. Special thanks to Chef Ritesh for the amazing dinner. The food was really great including the sushi. I want to give a special shoutout to Elvish, for making our dining experience truly memorable. His attentiveness and friendly demeanor enhanced our meal and made us feel valued guests. Thank you

First the good points; Lovely staff, beautiful beach, good food, nice decor in rooms, engaging evening entertainment, excellent daily cleaning of the room [thanks Nikita}, great beach service {thanks Godswill!}, plenty of sun beds And the bad; The main pool was dirty - my daughter got a bad stomach bug and my granddaughter got an ear infection .. and there were several others in the same position The air con was ineffective in the bedrooms, the buffet was unnecessarily chaotic due to a poor layout of food, the location of the hotel was very out of the way, the whole site needs smartening up, all inclusive didn’t include lots of stuff .. like ice cream, many of the sun beds were broken, €150 for a late check out🙀 All in all Long Beach does not deserve a 5* rating. It’s also worth noting that the hotel is on the wrong side of the island to see the amazing sunsets in Mauritius Read less

We stayed at Long Beach Hotel for our Honeymoon and we have to say that the trip was amazing from start to finish. We were greeted by friendly staff and refreshing drinks which is just what we needed after a long journey. The room was spacious, plenty of room in the bathroom and a lovely honeymoon gift was waiting for us. In terms of food, the restaurant of note was Hasu - Japanese style food. The buffets in the main restaurants were brilliant with a lot of variety for dinner including the chance to sample Mauritian food and breakfast was also satisfying. The pool/beach lunch menus could be a bit more extensive. We were treated to special dinner at the beach. The service at the hotel was excellent and really helped to make our stay a memorable one. There are so many people to thank individually from the porters, to the restaurant and bar staff and front desk staff. A special shout-out to Aslam, Soonam, Ben, Raoul, Pamela and Jasmine. We would recommend this hotel and hope to be back again soon! Read less
