ISLA-MAURICIA GUEST TESTIMONIALS"It's been a great pleasure dealing with Isla Mauricia to plan my holidays in Mauritius. Reservation on the website went very well, all my questions were answered in a timely manner. Great team, I'll definitely get back to them for my next stay on the island."
Ruby"I've been having a good time and getting around successfully in English. Most people and signs are bilingual, so that has been good. And your website is indeed a mine of information.
I've been having a really good time here. I'm afraid I haven't gotten as far north as your office though. I met a German couple on my third day, and I have done two day trips with them - one to Black River Gorges, Chamerel etc, and one to Port Louis. Both were long days 8:30 until about 6pm. Since we wanted to see several places we shared a taxi so we could fit more visits in. I have not been on a bus! I expected I would use them, but no.
The hosts of the place I booked with you have been great! They have given me loads of advice and help, and some food! They have been very generous with their time. I enjoyed going to church with one of them on Sunday - to an English speaking church."
Katie"Thank you most sincerely for your effort and your dedication, and your kindness. I assure you that I would warmly recommended them, in terms of Mauritius, because they were the most perfect and helpful of many agency providers for me.
Mr Reigber, thank you again and thanks to your colleague Ms Alfred."
Maria"Thanks very much for your email. We are very pleased to accept the villa upgrade. The villa looks gorgeous. We understand these mistakes can happen and your handling of the situation leaves us very impressed with your care for your clients and your professionalism and it makes us glad we chose to stay at one of the places you manage."
Carlos & Karen"Our stay in La Hacienda was a complete success. We rented a one-bedroom bungalow and the large two-bedroom bungalow for one night. It was my father’s birthday and we wanted to do something special. Everything worked out in advance with our reservation by the Isla Mauricia team. I asked if we could all have breakfast on the terrace of the large two-bedroom bungalow so we could celebrate as a family for my father’s birthday, and the Isla Mauricia team helped me to organise this. Payment and booking confirmation progressed without any problems. When we arrived at La Hacienda our pre-booked accommodation was welcoming and clean. As it was already evening when we arrived, there was no agent there but the night porter had been instructed to give us our keys and show us to our accommodation. So everything went well. For an evening meal we drove to the next biggest town of Mahebourg, where there is a variety of restaurants. Back in our comfortable beds we got some well-deserved sleep and the next morning we were woken by the rising sun. From the bungalows we had a spectacular view of the valley, the mountains and the bay. The rising sun, mixed with fine, drizzling rain, created a very unique aspect to our view, made even better by a rainbow. We took so many photos. We were able to have breakfast, as requested, on the balcony of the two-bedroom bungalow, which was bathed in beautiful sunshine and provided a mesmerizing view. I can really recommend a stay at La Hacienda if you like being surrounded by peace and beautiful nature. This offers a great change to the typical accommodation on and around the beach, and shows another side to this beautiful island."
Melanie"I just want to thank you for your help and effort. My friends loved
the villa and the wedding went very well. The weather was not perfect
but that is unfortunately out of our hands. Thank you once again"
Alam "We arrived home, as planned, on 18th January at 14:30 with many lovely memories in our hearts and very happy, but also a little sad to have left all the nice people in Rodrigues. Rodrigues and the exemplary team from St. Francois villas provided us with a warm welcome. The team from St Francois villas are a team who always have an enthusiastic smile on their friendly faces. Satisfactory service, tasty meals, a so-called ‘anti-stress’ island, which we really didn’t want to leave…I want to thank you for your professionalism and take pleasure in saying: I hope to see you soon."
Alain"We would like to thank you once again!
We got back to Swizerland yesterday from our holidays in Mauritius!
We were very comfortable in Pointe d`Esny and had a wonderful time in Mauritius! Our hosts were very very welcoming towards us and very hospitable. They went to so much trouble for us and helped us in every way. Highly recommended! Kudos to you!
The studio also exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for us!
Pure relaxation and a view which we will rave about again and again! Just like paradise!!
All the best for the future and till the next time (We will definitely be visiting Mauritius again!)"
Simone "It all worked out well and we were very comfortable.
Short feedback:
- Beach villas: great location on the ocean, very beautiful and well-maintained facilities, we would definitely stay here again. Mont Choisy is quiet, great beach, but nevertheless has a supermarket and 2-3 restaurants, Grand Bay and Peryebere are good, accessible by buses and taxi.
-Marlin Creek: beautiful rooms and facilities, very very nice owner, but the area is somewhat expensive if you don’t have a car. The Black River area is quite dead, restaurants are 2-10 km away, supermarket about 3km away. Christoph, one of the owners, often took us to restaurants, if it was more than 2-3 km away. Unfortunately there was no bike hire (only in Flic en Flac) – Christoph is considering offering rentals in the future. Buses do not run as frequently as in the North. We travelled using public buses and even once with a rented taxi for a day in the Black River area. Black River and Marlin Creek are good recommendations as places for sport fishing; the season begins on 15th December. We also went diving, if you need any recommendations for clients, I have been diving since 1993 and have been to several places around the world."
Dieter "I met the Nixon family on Monday at Les Banyans and am pleased to let you know that they are very happy with the bungalow and the sea view and were very satisfied with the services of Isla Mauricia."
Mauricette"thank you. my flight is airfrance coming from Paris, arriving on 1st jan. at 6.10 AM, flight number AF3592. I am leaving home in 10 minutes, so if I don't receive any further emails, i'll consider everything well managed. thank you again."
Gessica"Thank you for your email and yes, sorry for being so quiet!
I have been busy and must now have seen every possible accommodation option! I know that's my problem - too many things to take into consideration.
So, I have booked a small little B&B guesthouse in Pointe D'Esny and my Dad managed to secure a bungalow in the North through a South African travel agent.
I just want to thank you so much for your great assistance and answering my questions so promptly."
Martine "Hi again. Back at home in Finland, wanted to tell all to you at office and Villa Mont Choisy thank you. We had nice and safe holiday this time and it was nice to get back home when everything at holiday has been working well.
Drivers were also very nice people and transfers went well, sorry that forgot to give some tip to drivers when coming and going back to airport. We’re really tired and not thinking well.
Hope you all nice March and rest of the year, here in Finland spring is trying to get winning from winter but still too early here for spring to come. Yet, enjoying back home about lighter days and evenings, even though it´s still much snow =)" From Finland,
Pauliina and Ari "I don’t regret booking with Isla-Mauricia. My wife and I had an amazing time for our anniversary. The team was fast in responding to our questions and we had a priceless time in Mauritius."
Martijn"It was awesome to book with Isla-Mauricia, a very professional team. All our questions got answered and they suggested some good quality/price accommodation for my family and me. We’ll definitely book with them again."
Melissa"Good experience booking our holidays accommodation with Isla-Mauricia team. We got exactly what we wanted. Thank you Isla-Mauricia."
Rachel"After long hours trying to sort out accommodation for my friends, we found Isla-Mauricia. We got all needed help and the perfect accommodation."
Ketty"I wanted to thank you again for the quick feedback and reliability, which exceeded all my expectations. Kind regards." Mrs
P."Mauritius impressed us across the board and left a lasting positive impression. This was also due to the uncomplicated booking, and the exemplary, reliable care from Isla Mauricia. From the pick-up at the airport to the location of the accommodation and the transfer back to the airport, everything ran smoothly.
Any queries we had on holiday were quickly answered by email. Overall, a worry-free package.
It was our first trip to Mauritius but it is definitely not our last!"
Rolf "
Booking procedure and I-M experience:We had great service from I-M and Dietmar personally through the booking process, which went smoothly - Dietmar was exemplary in his promptness and helpfulness, giving us a lot of confidence in the company and service. We were very happy indeed with the whole process and even more so with the holiday itself.
Paradise Beach apartments:It's hard to emphasise too much just how high-quality these apartments are - the level of space, comfort and the facilities and fittings; the location and convenience; the stunning views and beach; the exceptionally helpful service and assistance available to make the most of the surrounding glory of Mauritius... all absolutely top of the range. This exceeded our expectations and never failed to surprise us in a very good way.
It's very well worth getting up for sunrise on the beach, watching the star-fish dig themselves in for the day... a photographer's dream. It's close enough to Mahebourg to walk, close to a large number of other attractions and locations, good food nearby, etc.
It's hard to think of anything that could improve this location, we loved it.
Estuary Guest House:Our lovely host Angela has a superb guest house on the river just outside Tamarin. With views over the river with the mountain in the background and within sound of the surf (less than a 5 minute walk away), the wooden accommodation is fitted out to the highest quality and is very comfortable. Angela was invaluable in providing advice and guidance for our excursions and enabled us to make the most of our time there. She also serves a generous and delicious breakfast! We especially want to thank Angela for the way she accommodated my wife's rather picky eating requirements - no meat, wheat or dairy (and no caffeine) is quite a challenge but Angela was gracious and very generous in providing excellent breakfasts, certainly going the extra mile in providing suitable milk, beverages and cereals, etc. This made a great difference on top of what would have been an excellent stay anyway.
Whilst the location is a little out of the way for town facilities, it is only a very short walk to several places to eat, is virtually on the beach and is ideal for anyone wanting somewhere tranquil to relax between activities. Also, the night sky was very clear - the Milky Way was clearly visible in a sky full of stars.
A lovely place to stay.
Mauritius:A small island with a lot to do and see - we barely scratched the surface but were very happy. We used the local taxis extensively - cheaper than hiring a car and you get a very friendly guide in the price! We really enjoyed walking in the National Park and generally walking around the place, it's a beautiful, beautiful place with very friendly people everywhere we went. We'd love to be coming back soon!
So thanks again Dietmar for enabling this for us - without you we'd never have considered Mauritius as a holiday destination and would have missed out on so much!"
