First off we booked a room close to where daughter lived with the expectation she could come and hang out with us in the evening. When we checked in we were told she was only allowed to go to the bar. She couldn’t come to our room at all. This should have been listed in the write up of the room or at least posted in our confirmation. Second we booked the room with the tub and surrounding windows(we paid extra for that room). The tub did not ever have hot water. We mentioned to staff several times and they said they were told it was fixed but it was not. The windows were broken. One was open when we checked in and we really had to struggle to close. On last day we opened another one and we couldn’t get it to close. There was a table in the room and you couldn’t really work at it because it wasn’t level and rocked. The second to last night we had been out and we were going up to the bar to hang out with my daughter. The staff at the front desk stopped us and told us that it was too late. Again never told that there was a time limit. I asked to speak to the Manager and expressed my all of my frustrations. He apologized and then allowed us to come up for a drink. He comped drinks. The staff was very nice and tried to accommodate. My biggest complaint was we were never told these policies from booking. The hotel itself really could use a little more updating.

The sea view from the room and rooftop restaurant was absolutely amazing. All of the staff went above and beyond, their customer service was the best, a special mention to Manish and Jessica who were always cheerful. The breakfast was ok and plentiful although a bit repetitive with the same choices everyday. Some variety would have been nice with maybe some local options offered. We booked half board and tried several of the dishes on the a la carte menu for dinner but unfortunately they all lacked flavour. The buffet nights on Thursdays and Saturdays were very good though. The Japanese restaurant - Manzu, was closed during our stay. The rooms and bathrooms would benefit from some maintenance, there was missing and mouldy grout and silicone in the bathroom and some parts of the walls in the bedroom were crumbling. We were on the 2nd floor and the noise from the main road was very loud at times with buses and motorbikes roaring past. I liked that it was an adult only spa hotel and enjoyed a lovely relaxing massage by Zarah. The hotel is located only a 5 minute walk to the lovely Pereybere beach and close to bus stops for transport to/from Grand Baie and other areas.

The hotel, whilst clean needs a full renovation. Reality doesn’t match the reviews nor the pictures on the website.The staff however were all wonderful and couldn’t do enough to be helpful. The breakfast was adequate but lacked variety.

I would not recommend

We recently stayed here for our honeymoon and overall it was an okay experience. Not bad, but definitely not what we expected. Unfortunately, around 80% of the staff weren’t friendly and rarely greeted or smiled, which made the atmosphere feel a bit cold. A few staff members really stood out for their kindness though. Especially Raven, Suraj, and the bell boy (man). They were genuinely lovely and helpful and we appreciated their warmth. Breakfast was average, with limited variety, but the included dinner was surprisingly lovely and enjoyable each night. We had requested a nice sea view for our honeymoon, but sadly a large tree completely blocked the view from our room, which was quite disappointing given the occasion. Overall, it was a decent stay, but with a little more friendliness and attention to detail, it could have been so much better.

Clean room and attentive staff

Kept harassing my girlfriend and me. Staff knocked on our door every 5 minutes and wouldn't leave us alone.

The location, the staff, the view, all of this lead to a memorable experience!

Hôtel was lovely, views from the rooftop at breakfast and from the pool were the highlight for me. Room was spacious. Staff were very attentive, more than you would expect in this kind of hotel, which was not really for me, but some people like that level of service. Note long trousers and closed shoes if you want to eat dinner at the hotel (we didn't have either). Walking distance to the beach and the few restaurants in town (recommend the Cloud) and good parking if you have your own car.

Bad experience, food poisoning from the buffet breakfast, this is only the beginning lifts out of use, needs updating, bathroom extractor not able to turn off, electrical switches not able to work out with a warm mini bar. But not able to brush teeth or shower or have bath because of brown water from tap.. not except-able under any circumstances. A waist of money and would not recommend

We loved our stay at Ocean V. The rooftop restaurant and bar is amazing with spectacular 180 degree views. Perfect boutique hotel catering for adults only.

Staff were polite and very accommodating. Property has beautiful rooftop views of the local beach and nice spa facility. Traffic can be a little noisy from the main road at times

The Staff were helpful and attentive. They made efforts to interact with guests and made my stay and my family feel most welcome and well assisted. I highly recommend this hotel.

The staff very friendly , hotel in good shape and has one of the best roof top bar and resteraunt. The gym could be way better ,too small with only 3 equipment. A beautful infinity pool. The food was top quality . Would reccomend

Stunning hotel and incredible service from their great staff. Room was clean and had a great view of the ocean. Design on our bed was a great touch! Would definitely come back!

Very nice pool area and restaurant upstairs.

Great location. Lovely views. Staff service was friendly with a smile from checkin to checkout.

This was my second stay at Ocean V. As always, the service was impeccable and one of a 6 stars hotel. The staff is very attentive to your needs and they pamper you from day 1 to your very last day. They are very helpful for anything you need. The breakfast offers great options if you are a vegetarian. The food is delicious. The Chef also tailors to your dietary habits. That's how attentive the whole staff is. He even accepted special orders I made (a 20 slices birthday cake for my friend). They offer tea time for free envy day. The hotel is very modern. The rooms are very spacious and super neat. You sleep so well even though it is close to the street when cars pass by, you don't hear a sound and will sleep like a baby. The rooftop pool has a spectacular view on the Indian Ocean. It is never crowded so at times, you will have the pool just for yourself. It is very conveniently located to great diving centres and the best one being (mybasediving) and conveniently located 5 min walk to the beach. It is also close to the many shops in Grand baie and all the nice restaurant and going-out area.

The hotel itself is worth visiting Maurice for. I had the best hotel experience in my life at Ocean V. The hotel staff are so very nice and so attentive. Their service is better than the one of a 5 stars hotel. Everyone is there to make your stay memorable. They are very client-centric. They can arrange any tours or activities on the island for you. The rooms are very spacious and very neat. The hotel is new. So everything is in pristine conditions. The hotel has a 24h guard and security. Although, it is not very needed as this location is super safe and friendly. The food at the restaurant is delicious. They accommodate any dietary restrictions. The place is a great choice for vegetarian travelers. The hotel is very conveniently located with the beach nearby and public transportations that take you to the main attractions in grande baie in no time. The hotel is also conveniently located, about 5 min by foot, to the best diving center on the island ‘my base diving centre’ who is managed by the third best diver on the island. I strongly recommend to stay at Ocean V. I, myself, will be back for another magical trip.

Beautiful views from swimming pool, restaurant and bar areas. Friendly and helpful staff.
