Beautiful resort, very well maintained. Exceptionally helpful staff. Only downside - our room was on the 2nd floor and had no lift access - which meant that I had to carry my 8 month old, in his stroller up and down multiple times a day on a sometimes slippery staircase.

A Memorable Paradise at InterContinental Balaclava, Mauritius Our stay at the InterContinental Balaclava in Mauritius was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm smiles and impeccable hospitality that set the tone for an unforgettable experience. Nestled along the pristine shores of Balaclava Bay, this luxury resort perfectly balances elegance, comfort, and Mauritian charm. Location and Ambiance: The hotel’s location is idyllic—a true slice of paradise. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, the resort offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The architecture blends seamlessly with the natural surroundings, and the views, whether from the rooms, poolside, or restaurants, are breathtakingly serene. Accommodation: Our room was a sanctuary of comfort and sophistication. Spacious, well-appointed, and equipped with modern amenities, it featured a private balcony that offered stunning ocean views. The attention to detail in the room’s design, from the plush bedding to the thoughtfully curated décor, ensured a luxurious and relaxing stay. Dining: The culinary experience at the InterContinental Balaclava is unparalleled. Each restaurant offers a delightful array of local and international cuisines. We particularly loved the fresh seafood dishes, which were expertly prepared and bursting with flavor.

Cadre magnifique mais propreté douteuse

1 nuit de repos et 4 nuits de conférences ( prises en charge par la société). Site magnifique, bcp de choix d’activités, bien situé mais avec chambres un peu datées et pas bien entretenues bien qu’elles soient propres. Les lits sont composés de 2 matelas individuels ce qui est inconfortable pour le dos en fonction de sa position de sommeil. Infrastructures en mauvais état pour les activités nautiques et personnel peu attentif donc éviter si vos enfants sont un peu turbulents Buffet copieux et varié (notamment les options végétariennes) mais très ciblé pour les plats indiens et asiatiques. Assez fade… dernier dîner découverte d’un cafard frit au fond du plat de riz byriani… et le pire c’est qu’il a fallu insister pour que le plat entier soit remplacé… Au global personnel accueillant mais service de niveau inégal… loin de ce qu’on attend d’un Intercontinental
