Anantara Iko Mauritius Resort & Villas

Abdullah AlSalman

Words cannot adequately convey the beauty and magnificence of the experience at this upscale resort. Starting with the amicable and professional staff, who provide every comfort and attend to all guests' needs. I would like to particularly commend Imen and Yasira, who are regarded among the finest employees at this establishment; their support and assistance to guests are truly extraordinary. From the moment of our arrival, we perceived interactions with respectful and professional personnel. All staff members were welcoming and smiling, fostering a homely atmosphere. They thoroughly explained the resort's services and how to utilize them effectively. The resort features three accommodation options: villas, ocean-view rooms, and garden-view rooms, all offering breathtaking vistas. Regarding dining options, there are several restaurants on-site; I personally sampled three main options: - Sea Salt Fire, serving lunch and dinner (reservations required). The cuisine includes seafood dishes, which I highly commend. The flavors, presentation, and professionalism of the staff are exemplary, especially from JP (Manager), Kavish, and Avishka. - Horizon Restaurant, offering an open buffet for breakfast and dinner, typically presents a diverse array of international cuisines. - Zafran, providing dinner service with Indian cuisine (reservations required). My evaluation of this restaurant ranges from average to high. The resort offers a range of activities, events, and services; some require prior reservation and additional payment, while others are included in the standard reservation at check-in. Beyond the luxurious architecture, exquisite design, and strategic location, the resort's most commendable features are its cleanliness, room service, and the staff's eagerness to assist. During my stay, I encountered no issues related to cleanliness, and staff promptly addressed all requests. This resort ranks among the most beautiful and elegant locations I have visited during my travels and merits a rating of five stars or higher. Should I revisit Mauritius, this resort would be my preferred choice, as it is truly worth every penny.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Imen, the duty manager of the resort. From the moment we arrived, she treated us with such warmth, kindness, and genuine care—especially knowing it was our first time traveling. Iman went above and beyond for us, arranging a beautiful beach trip that became one of the most unforgettable moments of our lives. My family was truly touched by her generosity and the way she made us feel welcome and safe. Thanks to Imen, our trip wasn’t just a vacation—it was a precious memory we will carry in our hearts forever. We are so grateful for everything she did for us. “Lastly, thank you to all the staff — they were incredibly kind. One thing we really appreciated was that the resort does enforce a proper dress code in the food room, ensuring everyone is appropriately covered, especially with children around. They follow this rule perfectly, and it really makes a difference. Other resorts should learn from them.”the Indian food there is the best highly recommended-

Thank you Anantara Iko Mauritius for making our holiday memorable even though it was for a short stay we really felt welcomed ,specially Rebecca nailed it with her very professional and genuine hospitality which is very rare nowadays, made for it with her electric sense of humour and together with Mr Ahmed the FOM who is a nice gentleman who joined to make our wedding anniversary even more special with a special little surprise in our room to mark this occasion with even more added value bonus A wide variety of fresh tasty food and local spicy snacks. Nice and clean wide cosy room . I would definitely recommend and come back again to this hotel. Best regards Dinesh

I stayed at this resort for three days, and it was an amazing experience. I want to give a special thank you to Rebecca for her kindness and the way she made us feel welcomed and cared for during our stay. I also want to thank Vidya and Diya from the kids’ club. Their positive energy and the way they interacted with my daughter were wonderful. She felt happy and comfortable with them, and that meant a lot to me. The only downsides are that the place is a bit dark and there aren’t many activities. However, this makes it perfect for those who enjoy peace and quiet. Thank you all for making our visit memorable. Highly recommended! 🌟

As someone who’s stayed in many 5-star hotels, this was unfortunately the most disappointing experience I’ve had. Highlights: • The hotel’s design, pools, and restaurants are beautiful. • Location: only 10 minutes from the airport, but quite far from most Mauritius attractions — good if you just want peace and quiet. Lowlights: • Food: Buffet had variety but not 5-star quality. Service was poor — staff often ignored guests. I was even told mid-meal that my outfit didn’t meet the dress code, which felt rude and unnecessary. • Beach: zero service, no umbrellas or bar nearby, rocky and not ideal for swimming. • Room: spacious with nice bathroom, but had a slight smell and bugs inside. • Checkout: chaotic — staff knocked multiple times even after granting late checkout. • Transport: no taxis or apps available; you must arrange through the hotel or your own driver. Overall: beautiful property but poor service, stressful experience, and not worth the 5-star label. “I wouldn’t recommend it”
