La Pirogue Hotel is truely a tropical paradise. The Bungalows situated within lots of palmtrees, is just amazing. So is the walk towards the beach. The beach itself is a tropical beauty. We very muched loved the cabanas. The whole Team was very kindly and supportive and we had a lot of fun joking around with them. After a few days they know your favorite drinks (Red Label) and your personal wishes. if it should happen that you become ill or injuried, the nurse Reena will take very good care for you and treat you almost like a family member!!We also can recommend to marry there. Our weddimgplanner Nimisha did a fantastic job, it‘s gonna be a tropical wedding situated within palmtrees and facing towards the ocean and beach under a white Gazeboo decorated with tropical flowers. We will defenitly return and highly recommend this beautiful hotel. Read less

The people of Mauritius welcomed us with open arms. While staying at a beautiful resort, we met staff members who learned our first names and addressed us but it. This made us feel special. Learning about the island from them, made it more special.

We had a very nice time in La pirogues. The beach is magnificent and the hotel is excellent. There is one small point of criticism...the wine selection was good...but the bottled wines were too expensive, there were no low-priced wines.

We had the pleasure of spending 10 days at this resort on our honeymoon. And those were wonderful days. Great bungalows in a palm grove where you feel perfect privacy, a beach like from a fairy tale, excellent food, kindly service for whom nothing is a problem - we will gladly come back here. And hope we will also meet the beach attendant Mr. Vitay, who not only knew a few sentences in our exotic mother tongue, but most importantly fulfilled what he saw on our eyes - he was perfect. Thank you. Read less
