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.

The food was delicious. Memories made was absolutely memorable and fantastic. Our experience was truly lovely. All activities we did as a family was very nice and enjoyable, especially the snorkeling. All restaurants were delicious. Tides was truly an experience on its own, everything was delicious. Sapori also had wonderful food and great service, a special thanks to our waiter Akshata. Chopsticks was great as well. The buffet is great for breakfast but prefer the rest of the restaurants for dinner. All meals were really delicious. Thanks for everything❤️ Read less

Great service and food. Very friendly. Akshata was very kind and professional and was our waiter during the 3rd night. Rooms are always clean and there are lots of activities. I would recommend booking all inclusive. The food was extraordinary but the cocktails could be a bit more consistent

I came to the hotel as a 56 year old woman travelling alone for the first time ever. And wow, what a wonderful holiday it was. Mauritius itself is a stunningly beautiful island and the Mauritian people are incredibly friendly, but in addition to that Long Beach Hotel provided such a perfect holiday. The staff are attentive with 3 that stand out especially for me. Ben in La Merche would always make sure he found me a table and even ended up knowing my drink preference at the start of the meal and the coffee I liked at the end of it. Them Anastasia and Samira were just the most smiley, friendly ladies who would serve me at breakfast at La Merche and at lunch at Tides. On my last 2 days they also made sure I had a window seat and the added touch of fresh flowers on my table. I spent the 10 days there feeling as if I belonged and not out of place at all as I was worried I would be with being on my own. The food was exceptional with so many choices and delicious. The beach and pool were an absolute dream, with even the added benefit of waiters coming to ask you if you wanted a drink. I was extremely sad to leave yesterday. I will definitely go back there one day as it was very special indeed. Read less

Also thankyou to the spa for my treatments which were amazing with Simpla. Would like to see the breakfast buffet improve some more as hot food is still not warm enough to eat although other food was lovely. Also watch your bills on checkout as even though we were AI 2 items had been put on bill we had not had which were on our fridge but still not a problem as told checkout we had not had them but f you were half board you may mot notice. We will be back and hope to see all the staff which are a credit to your hotel still here. Read less
