Solana Beach - Adults Only

To be honest this was very difficult. Starting with the nice bit, it’s cheap, and it was my first time in Mauritius so I didn’t know the relativity of quality but it’s stark for this 4 star hotel and the 5, so acknowledging this is cheaper and judging it reasonably there are glaring issues. 1. Day 1. The room had a leak on the roof so when it rained at 3:00 in the morning it was like a drum on the roof, call reception and they offered to take me on a tour of other rooms I could move to. Not thrilling. 2. There was mould in the room in the bathroom where clearly there is no ventilation, this comes with the expected smells. Not great for the start of your holiday. 3. Change room day 2, and another roof problem, this time the AC unit had parts not attached properly, so when you try and sleep at night and there is wind in a tropical country, banging once again ensues like a drum. 3 calls with maintaince and fixed (recurred later in the trip) 4. The mattress is like sleeping on bricks, to the point I had a massage at the start and end of the stay - which I booked at the hotel down the road as it’s just nicer (I spent 2 days in Longbeach on there day pass which you can buy for 200 euro for 2 people and highly recommend) 5. The toilet broke - and was fixed 3 times before on the last time it wouldn’t flush they changed the whole cistern … but living with this isn’t great on holiday. There is more - leaks in multiple roofs, significant safety issues in the gym .. you get it

Hôtel très calme et reposant, personnel très agréable et serviable, plage magnifique, nourriture variée avec un petit déjeuner très complet. Nous y avons passés une belle semaine

J’ai passé un excellent séjour au Solana Beach - Adults Only ! 🌴 L’hôtel est magnifique, très bien entretenu, et l’ambiance est calme et reposante, idéale pour se détendre. Le personnel est aux petits soins, toujours souriant et disponible. Les chambres sont spacieuses, propres et confortables, avec une vue superbe sur la mer. Mention spéciale pour le petit-déjeuner, très varié et délicieux ! Je recommande vivement cet établissement pour un séjour en amoureux ou entre amis, loin de l’agitation. 💙

The welcoming team upon arrival (especially Lusna already started my overall positive experience at this hotel. The receptionists were not only friendly but also chatty and funny (which I personally like!). They kept my luggage till my room was ready. Meanwhile I explored the grounds of this nicely landscaped property with lots of blossoming flowers, wide paths, various hotel buildings, the pool and the beach area. Everything is well maintained, tidy and clean. I absolutely loved my room on the ground floor with a small terrace and only 8-10 meters away from the sea! The morning viewswere fantastic! The room was equipped with a kettle with complimentary coffee/tea, a fridge (2 bottles of water per day were delivered every afternoon), haidryer, aircon, daybed, chairs/table on the terrace. The buffet restaurant offered a large breakfast buffet lots of choices (hot & cold) and crispy bread. The evening buffets had different themes and I found everything quite delicious. Items wre always fresh and constantly refilled. The only thing that I found a bit annoying was that the dishes were sometimes taken away when I was just about to drop the fork - a bit too quickly in my opinion. The hotel offered various activities (including yoga, evening entertainment, SUPs, glassbottom boat trips) for free and other things at a fee (diving, spa treatments etc). The gym was small (unfortunately the wifi didn’t reach the basement - I suggest an amplifier for that area) but had good equipment.

Parfait

Rooms in poor condition air conditioning very noisy,floor around the toilet rotten making it wobble all in all very tired. Paid for 8 days only stayed 7 asked for late check out wanted to charge another day still not heard back from Expedia as was told to contact agent about the extra day refund hotel couldn’t sort it apparently. The staff were very nice all the time they could try to sell you a special menu evening any other time adequate. From our experience I would not recommend but you could get lucky

We had a lovely time. Staff was polite, always smiling and welcoming. The rooms were clean, beautiful decorated and comfortable. The location was perfect. Service was consistently excellent with outstanding hospitality. Staff could not do enough and was hard working. Will definitely come back.

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and professionalism. From the front desk staff to the restaurant staff, they were all fantastic, attentive, friendly and genuinely cared. They looked happy and smiling all the time. Our rooms, booked 4 rooms, were spotless, beautiful and very comfortable. Housekeeper did a fantastic job through our stay. The activities were OK. The night entertainment should be better. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend Solana Beach Hotel.

First of all, I am not used write negative reviews, but have to do it this time to let other people know about this place. It was a terrible experience. The hotel quality doesn’t corresponds with pictures and with 4* hotel level at all (perhaps 15 or 20 years ago). Some personnel are nice and friendly. Beside many negative and strange things, the wooden terase around swimming pool is really dangerous - old rotten boards across complete terase, when my wife was trying to enter the pool 2 boards came out and only by luck she was not seriously injured - never seen something similar at any hotel.

Alles bestens, super Essen (Buffet) mit reichhaltiger Auswahl, Lage direkt am Strand, sehr ruhig, wir hatten ein Zimmer im UG mit Terrasse und der Möglichkeit von dort die nur wenigen Meter direkt zum Strand zu gehen.

I must definitely won't be staying there

Absolutely loved our stay at Solana Beach Hotel! The staff is just fantastic, friendly and very attentive! Only suggestions are to have more bins around to leave rubbish and the toilet would benefit a fresh coat of paint.

Very bad experience not clean I left the hotel after 3 night. Not a 4 stars

Mon séjour était parfait

Fab location,majority of staff were pleasant.Property while fine,could really do with a bit of a revamp/renovation.strange system of having to sign random receipts even when all-inclusive(no bands?).Request if a late check out from 11am-2pm was met with a ‘nominal charge’ of 110€,even though we were already entitled to all inclusive until 3pm (and property was certainly less than 50% occupied),really let them down imo,and wouldn’t endear me to book again I’m afraid

Great hotel

I would not recommend this hotel. This is not a 4-star hotel. The property is super old and desperately requires reconstruction. Room was not clean and everything was old and damaged. Worst thing is that you are on an exotic island and they do not provide water and instead you have to buy. I got complimentary water after I complained. I had half board and many things were not included - this includes basics which is not clearly explained on the web page. Good things were: nice beach, some water activities are included for free such as kayak.

A really nice and quiet hotel. Lots of sunbeds available so you dont have to race to reserve one in the morning. The views from the bedroom are absolutely unmatched as well. Ghey clean yhe rooms twive a day, once after breakfast and again at 7pm which was a bit unnecessary since most people are getting ready for dinner around 7pm. Food at the main restaurant was very good, especially the grilled fish which was fresh and delicious. The only downside i found was that they tried to upsell you to do their paid dinner meal experiences every single day. Normally they would come to your table either at lunch or breakfast trying to sell you the dinner experience. They were lovely and not pushy at all but felt a bit unnecessary. Overall, the hotel was really good value for money.

Sehr schönes Hideaway Hotel zum Relaxen direkt am Strand Wir hatten ein tolles Zimmer mit Meerblick, die Anlage war sehr gepflegt und bot einen sehr schönen Pool mit Poolservice, WLAN war überall sehr gut verfügbar. Das Gym bot alles für eine gute sportliche Einheit. Auch die Massage im Wellness Bereich des Hotels waren ausgezeichnet. Beeindruckend war insbesondere die ausnahmslose Freundlichkeit des Personals. Hier kommen wir gerne nochmal her.

There were a lot of hidden costs even if you were “all inclusive”. When issues brought up to management they were very helpful and accommodating
