Excellent and quick service from all staff: Ishrat, Akshay, Patrick, the entire breakfast team, and al.
Peaceful stay. The room was clean and so comfortable. Will definitely go back!
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.
Amazing resort with excellent facilities, well maintained and a variety of food on offer.
Clean and comfortable bedrooms with great sea views.
Excellent and very helpful staff all round service
Because of an issue with the wing where I booked they upgraded me and put me on half board option. It was truly appreciated and the facilities are awesome.
All the staff were so helpful and kind to my elderly friend. We absolutely loved staying here. Facilities are amazing, people are beautiful, the scenery is outstanding and food and cocktails were plentiful!!! Would highly recommend this resort to anyone wanting a special holiday in Mauritius.
Thanks to Roshan for keeping our room clean and sparkly during our stay. 💙

This probably the best resort I have ever been to. Beautiful, beachfront property. Great food. The staff and service were absolutely incredible. From the guys at the boat house, to the staff at the spa and front desk, and even the cleaners, everyone went above and beyond. I am definitely going to come back.
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.
On n’a passer un séjour sublime le personnel était exceptionnel vraiment professionnel la propreté de la chambre était à la hauteur de l’hôtel je recommande cette hôtel on a passé vraiment des belles vacances super un service, 5 étoiles la première boutique de l’hôtel est superbe et la vendeuse vraiment sympathique. Je recommande aussi. Merci pour tout
Belle chambre et superbe extérieur.
Les activités sont top ainsi que les gens qui s’occupent des activités ( plongé ect)
Par contre l’hospitalité de certains membre de l’accueil et du petit déjeuné, est vivement à travailler pour un hôtel 5*

Liked: Room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness
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
La chambre spacieuse, propre , bien agencée et avec tout le confort, seul problème, elle était au deuxième étage sans ascenseur et vu notre âge,(71 et 76 ans) cela posait problème certains jours.
On regrette également le buffet a 140 euros par couple..
le personnel est très sympa, à l’écoute et toujours prêt à nous aider.
