Le Preskil Beach Resort

My Husband and i had the opportunity of spending our 10 Years Wedding Anniversary at the Le Preskil Beach Resort in Mauritius in January 2008 this year...We thouroughly enjoyed our stay there , not only was everything so convenient as we were on our own private beach , as well as having a few restaurants literally a minute from our room, the boathouse which was 30 sec. aways and with just the sand seperating our room and the ocean was the best view to waking up in the mornings ! It was not just the perfect place to relax, but loaded with lots of exciting water activities that the boathouse offered . Our Tourist guide was very helpful when we arrived and helped us plan a weeks itenary. So we not just enjoyed our tours, but also our water activities as well. We still cannot getover the Undersea walking that we did as well as the Snorkeling in Blue Baai! Not to forget the whole day Catamaran Boat Cruise that we took to another island ... It was amazing ! Even though its been blistering hot, just the thought of coming back to the Le Preskil Beach Resort to a cool air-conditioned neat and tidy room always was the perfect way to cool off , if not a dive into one of the pools which was also about 30 seconds away from our room. The Resort also had a beautiful spa with a range of massages as well as a gym , hired bicycles as well as motorbikes. The cleaning staff as well as the restaurant staff were always so polite and well mannered. We were really treated like royalty every single morning and evening by the staff as we were booked half board (lunch not included in package) however lunch was never a problem as we just used to go to the town Mahebourg which is a few minutes away and enjoy the food of the village. Theres also flea market stalls as well as little gift shops that you can enjoy shopping at , did become a bit uncomfortable with the heat but it really did not stop us at all.If we got tired, we could just go back to the Beach Resort which was so near and very convenient once again . Oh the Airport is also just 15 minutes away from Le Preskil, once again was very convenient. The Restaurant had a different theme buffet dinner every evening, which was so exciting with such a wide range of delicious meals , salads as well as the the desserts. We did get a bit tired of the same breakfasts every morning though, the menu is the same but i guess the dinners really made up for that. Not to forget ending your dinners with the Sega Dancing every evening , that was just too funfill as we always took the dance floor as well.So I am really glad that my husband had chosen to book the Le Preskil Beach Resort and will not just recommend it to anybody but have already recommended it to our family as well as lots of friends ! It was really a warm, peaceful and relaxing place to spend a week away !

Staff of Le Preskil Beach Resort were very friendly, helpful and accomodating !

Would have liked the breakfast menus to have changed a bit daily.

Everything is good but the internet. It was very inconvenience for use internet.

We have just returned from our honeymoon in Mauritius. We stayed for 4 nights at the Le Preskil Beach Resort. We found everything about our stay there absolutely lovely. The beach was stunning, the hotel over all amazing, and is truly a little piece of heaven. We stayed in a honeymoon suite which was decorated beautifully and our friendly valet would clean our room every morning and evening. We found all the staff to be incredibly helpful and efficient. Apart from some who do battle slightly speaking proper English. But all round the reception staff to the waiters were all equally good. Our holiday package included breakfast and supper. However we did not take the all inclusive package which I would've recommended as drinks are rather expensive. A tip to try the local beer called "Phoenix", my husband got addicted to it while at the hotel and even brought some back home to South Africa for everyone to taste. The breakfasts were good, with quite a large variety, however after the third morning it did become a bit bland. The dinners were lovely, with a different theme every night, and different entertainment was provided each night such as singers and local mauritian dancers which we found extremely entertaining. The resort itself had so much to do that we found ourselves not wanting to leave to do any other touring. However the one day Le Preskil did provide us with a taxi driver who took us around the whole day to different tourist attractions, which only cost us about 2000 rupees. All water sports were included in our package, and we found the equipment to be well looked after. We took a glass bottom boat trip the one day where we were able to snorkel and admire the coral. Our boat driver from the hotel was again very friendly and answered everyones questions. The hotel has a lovely spa where we were treated to a complimentary massage which was very relaxing. Our weather was good, very warm with only the evenings getting cool. The bar at the hotel as well as the Tapas restaurant made a lovely place to have lunch and the fried fish we had at the bar was divine, with most places serving large portions. Overall I would really recommend Le Preskil Beach Resort it sets an extremely high standard and we would love to return again next year.

Everything, staff were excellent, excellent general upkeep of hotel

none, except some staff cant speak english very well.

The traffic in the capital Port Louis is so bad in the morning that it is quite hard to reach the airport if you have to catch a flight mid morning. Therefore we stayed at the Preskil for the night because it is located 15 minutes from the airport (strangely though, you can hardly hear any airplanes at the hotel).
A very nice welcome with cold towels and a cold drink.
The room is quite basic with no bath tub and a fixed shower which is not ideal for showering a two year old.
Two pools overlooking the beautiful lagoon. The beach is well kept with enough sun loungers and umbrellas.
We had dinner in the buffet restaurant. The food was really very good as was breakfast.
We did find the drinks expensive for a 3 star hotel (one beer Euro 5,00). It might be a good idea to book the 'all inclusive' option.

Good quality food

No bath tub, fixed shower Drinks very expensive

The beach and the lagoon at this hotel is probably one of the most beautiful of Mauritius. Wonderful colours, great beach!
The hotel has been renovated not long ago so the general condition is really good. Also the rooms, really ok for a 3 star hotel.
However, the food (breakfast and dinner) was not good at all.
The hotel is far away from everything so if you want to go somewhere more lively, you need to take a taxi (for example to Grand Baie). Mahebourg is nearby the hotel but there is nothing going on at night.
This hotel is perfect for beach lovers who are looking for peace and quiet for a reasonable price.

beautiful site great beach
