Overall Ratings & Reviews Chantauvent Guesthouse

Pleasant stay walking distance to Blue Bay Beach. (60 metres, 200 ft).

First off the lady at the check in was not nice at all. The guy at the restaurant was extremely nice. Then my room was ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING and small it was a room under a stairway straight out of harry potter. The room was covered in these black wing fly things. Like all over they didn't even spray the room before I came. I got there and they literally told me to spray it myself. I have asthma and I could not spray it before I slept. To be fair to them the location and the food was good. But the price of the room if I paid a little more I would have gotten a better hotel. The door to the room is a glass sliding good with a curtain if it is not closed anyone can see inside. The bathroom door is a sliding door that doesnt even work. So if I am sitting on the toilet and the curtains are open anyone can see straight inside. HONESTLY, for the money I paid it was not worth it and it was DISGUSTING! The size of the room i could have probablyh lived with even the not working bathroom dog and glass sliding door. BUT THE BLACK FLY BUGS THINGS !! THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE!

Had a wonderful 10 day stay at Chantauvent. Behind the hotel is Blue Bay beach, one of the best beaches in Mauritius. Great opportunity to snorkel and see marine life. Some decent restaurants nearby and airport is only 10 mins away. Staff were helpful and friendly and the room was in good condition

Good stay, nice staff

The customer service was perfect 100%. As so I will say this, if you do not mind sleeping with bugs it is a great place to stay.

Unsuitable..we didn't get what we asked for...too small like a prison cell...i requested two single beds but were given a queen size bed instead & we are not a couple

Very nice place with incredible snorkeling. Great pool and loved the table tennis table.

A bit less than what is advertised but OK overall

Awesome beachfront property! lovely room with balcony views, would definitely stay again !!

ve : right on the beach -ve: no tv in room

We had room 6 with a bed and large enclosed patio with a clear view directly on to the sea. Couldn't be closer. The ladies looked after reception, cleaning and dinner service very well. The chef's chicken curry really good. Pizzas at the cute Spot cafe in the garden room section of the complex are a must for anyone in the area. The guy who controls watersports ewuipment very helpful. 4 given for condition as the sliding windows and patio entrance door of the seafront room we were in has been weathered, which is understandable. Nothing to put one off being there for that amazing position and at a reasonable price. Absolutely wonderful snorkelling within 5 metres of water directly in front. Bliss.

We really enjoyed our stay there

Nice & cosy beachfront guesthouse. Good buffet breakfast. Surely recommend.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The place is infested with ticks and cockroaches, with stray cats living in the roof above the kitchen. The first night I was here I woke up in the middle of the night with my eye bleeding because a tick that had attached itself to my eye lid, from the bedding. The room I stayed in had an ant infestation in the bathroom, there was black mould on the shower curtains and there were also giant cockroaches in the room. I asked for another room at checkin but was told this is what I’d paid for! I tried to get help one evening after i found a massive cockroach, but this place closes at 9pm, and despite the website saying there is reception & security there was no one at all available. I phoned and text every number I could find, and rang doorbells, but you are completely on your own here between 9pm and 8am. I also got sick after eating lunch here. The manager and the director are both aggressive, and when I complained he asked me how I should fix his roof, or what other pest control I suggest he use, like this was my problem to fix. I was told as I’d booked a cheap room I got what I paid for!!!! And they wouldn’t refund me because I’d probably still write a bad review, like that’s the reason you should refund someone in this situation. Speaking with some locals after I check out they alI confirmed it’s a super old hotel with many problems, don’t be fooled by the apparent charm of the pictures.

The staff were rude, the room was dirty, stained bath towels and throw pillows. When it rained, my room flooded.

I loved it here. 😍😍 Friendly staff.. The view was Spectacular 👌👌👌Food..excellent 👌I was hooked on the fish 😍.. Over all it was Excellent.. 👌👌💯 WiFi.. Close to to beach.. Restaurant etc. Thank you for making us feel welcome. Ps even the dogs made us feel welcomed 😅♥️

The staff was very accommodating and friendly in ensuring that our comfort was met.

The service and staff at the guesthouse were fabulous. The staff were happy to help me book transport and explore the region. Breakfast was good. My room was very simple and a little musty.

This is a fantastic little guest house. The location is in a quiet residential area on the beach. One side of the hotel (beach side) faces the Indian Ocean and, across the road, is the garden side. Both sides have their charms. The garden side is quieter than the beach side due to the sound of the strong winds from the ocean. This is a place for those who value calm, quiet, serenity and nature. The staff are incredibly kind and I felt very much at home. Karine (the manager), Wendy, Aurélie, and Nyoulian who work the reception were all very kind and accommodating. I have special dietary needs at breakfast and the cook made special food at no cost just for me.

Welcoming staff and good service throughout. The room was spacious and light with fridge and simple kitchen facilities. The shower room was modern with plenty of hot water. The balcony was well used by us for morning and evening relaxing. The views from our room were amazing - the bluest sky and sea and white coral sand. We were lucky to have a sea view room. Chantevent has a pleasant garden on the entrance side with some sitting areas. The terrace on the beach side is shady in parts with loungers, tables and chairs and access too the beach. We ate in the restaurant on our first night. There is a set Mauritian meal of three courses for 650rupees. We enjoyed a smoked marlin salad, dorade in a sweet and sour sauce and a banana split dessert. Breakfast is buffet style with a good variety of items. Chantevent could do with a little attention such as a coat of paint but I recommend it for a peaceful stay with easy access to all that the south-east of Mauritius has to offer.
