Coin de Mire Attitude

Mauritius, Indian Ocean

Virgin rating

The hotel

This intimate hotel offers simple wholesome Mauritian hospitality and sits in lush, tropical gardens, across the road from a lovely beach. There is a generous array of activities and sports on offer, and make sure you discover some of the hotel's Otentik experiences — a Mauritian cookery class, maybe a home-cooked dinner in local home or enjoy local music and sega dancing at sunset. Alternatively, there are two lovely pools, an outdoor terrace and a spa offering a range of signature treatments, making it a little bit too easy to do absolutely nothing! The cosy guest rooms have a cool and contemporary style, just ready and waiting for you to kick back and relax in.

A lovely stay, beautiful place. Beach not ideal for swimming (there’s a better beach 20 mins walk away).

It is quote difficult to do a full review as this hotel as not our choice of hotels as we were suppose to be in an adults only hotel , however Virgin Holiday made a mess of the booking & we had to move which kinda left us a little deflated and i have had to put a complaint in. However if i was looking for a family holiday , then i would certainly recommend the Coin de Mire / Lovely rooms & great food - however what makes the resort is the staff, they are simply amazing! The only "downside" is that you do have to cross a reasonably busy road to get to the beach, however the security guys do help people across. Read less

Fantastic hotel in great location. Food was cooked fresh for all meals and would happily return tomorrow. Room was a little small for 3 people but we weren't in there much TBH. I would say the most chilled out hotel I've ever been to with great staff. Walking along the beach towards Pereybere was a dream, the views and coastline is like a postcard… Read more
Fantastic hotel in great location. Food was cooked fresh for all meals and would happily return tomorrow. Room was a little small for 3 people but we weren't in there much TBH. I would say the most chilled out hotel I've ever been to with great staff. Walking along the beach towards Pereybere was a dream, the views and coastline is like a postcard all the way along... The staff on the beach were attentive and friendly, would recommend getting a kayak and viewing the coast from the sea... Will definitely return soon. Read less
