Overall Ratings & Reviews Maradiva Villas Resort & Spa

The resort itself is beautiful and peaceful. Staff were really kind but didn’t always get food orders right. The food is average and massively overpriced which would prevent us from going back.

Beautiful beach, gardens and accommodation. Super friendly, helpful and professional staff Good food with variety of options. Very quiet and relaxing.

An amazing hotel with lovely friendly and welcoming staff. It felt like being welcomed into someone's family for a week. The room was spacious and well maintained. The food in Coast 2 Coast was fantastic and the staff were so accommodating. A lovely peaceful, friendly and quiet hotel for a relaxing holiday.

Lovely hotel 50mins drive from airport - comprises of villas only. Well maintained modern/ colonial type decor. Staff very friendly and efficient. Food is excellent- exceeded expectations. 3 restaurants on site, plus you can use your credit at the 3 restaurants at the Sands Hotel next door ( sister hotel). Snorkelling on site not great, but they offer complimentary snorkelling trips further out. Beach is lovely but beach beds could do with new mattresses. Spa is very busy and good- needs booking in advance. Flic en Flac public beach nearby with local restaurants and shops, but most sights need a cab/car to get to. Driving is same as in UK.

We had a wonderful week at Maradiva in November 2021. There are so many positives it’s difficult to remember to list them all: stunning location, perfect tropical beach, warm seas, large comfortable and stylish private villas, good food, exceptional warm and friendly service, beautiful spa… I could go on. The two things that really make Maradiva stand out from other luxury properties we have stayed in are the space and sense of exclusivity (you are never crowded at Maradiva, you are always treated as an individual) and the wonderful friendly and courteous staff who make you feel so welcome.

Sad to see not many people due to COVID but enjoyed it thoroughly

Was good, need some improvement

Excellent facilities, large villas with individual plunge pools, great beach, nice restaurants. But for me the best feature of the hotel was the service. It was Mauritian hospitality at its best. Will certainly stay again. Thanks for a memorable stay

Food is not as good as I expected. Everything else was perfect

Fantastic villa room, just wow. Loved the space. Including outdoor lounge and private pool. Especially loved the bathroom which was huge and also had an outdoor shower experience as well as indoor which we thought was a beautiful touch. The service was fantastic. The spa had a huge warm jacuzzi pool which served as a great winter pool which we really appreciated. The only downside was the lack of a black out curtain in the bedroom but it is very private so we didn't feel overlooked. Otherwise just brilliant.

Fantastic location. Beautiful beach and phenomenal service

Staying for our honeymoon we were looked after from the moment we arrived. The staff were quite responsive and assisted where requested. We were often approached for any assistance. Our villa was directly opposite the beach with direct views of the water. (This although beautiful did not provide much privacy for our personal time.) Dining experiences were great although a standard bottle of wine usually AUD30 was inflated to approx AUD120! A 400% increase!! That was a joke. Water at breakfast was free but incredibly expensive at lunch or dinner. The only other issue we had was a turn down service attending at 10pm. Thought that a little too late in the evening.

Above expectation

One of the best places to stay in Mauritius, free activities, and good atmosphere, totally recompensed it and I will stay again (only wished to have complementary late check out)

Fantastic set up of villas in a lush garden, private villas with plunge-in pools. Great location, excellent services and very professional staff.

This was a second time to visit Maradiva and we were again impressed with it. Having private villa with plunge-in pool is fabulous, beach is nearby, staff is very professional and responsive. Amazing garden with hundreds of different plants. Great location, but recommended to have a car for trips around the island.

it was amazing and relaxing. quiet and calm. we enjoyed our stay.

Luxury al the way, happy attentive staff quietly putting maximum effort into ensuring our vacation was flawless. Back to work to save up for a return to paradise !

The Hotel claims check in is at 2pm but we were kept waiting until 2.45pm and other guests spoke of similar experience. The bathroom floor was dirty and stained and indoor shower head blocked so both needed attention. Subsequently, manager was shown bad staining around the bath which was immediately evident on walking in but nothing was done about it. Totally unacceptable for a "Leading Hotel of the World". On the plus side, the staff were very friendly, especially in the dining areas and the Japanese restaurant was exceptional. The villa design with interior and external seating areas and the swimming pools, both in the villa and the main one, and the gym facilities were all excellent. The gardens were nice but more attention needed to be given to watering the lawns evenly to avoid so many dried out areas.

Our stay at Maradiva was one of the most incredible experience I have ever had on vacation. The resort is beautiful and is exclusively designed to house private villas with their own pools. The common areas and landscaping is amazing and the services and amenities are excellent. They have a wonderfully equipped SPA and Yoga studio with highly knowledgeable and skilled staff. When it comes to the villas things are just as great. Our villa was beautiful and luxurious with our own private terrace and pool right on the beachfront (with private access) and the room itself was also very spacious and comfortable. The food at the resort though did leave a bit to be desired (breakfast and dining a la carte at the main restaurant were average experiences and lacking in variety, but the seafood we had during our private romantic dinner on the beach was outstanding which made up for the rest of the dining experiences. Finally there is the service and friendliness of the staff at the resort. The staff went over and above to ensure that we had a amazing and memorable experience during our stay. The concierge team helped us to plan and book our entire week's itinerary recommending restaurants and activities for us and the hotel was more than happy to provide us with another villa during on our last day to accommodate our late checkout in the evening and allow us to use the spa amenities as well as providing us with free transportation to the airport. We would highly recommended this resort!
