Radisson Blu Azuri Resort Amp; Spa, Mauritius

We stayed for 9 nights in February. The resort was clean & the grounds were well maintained. We had a Seaview room with a balcony. The room was a good size. Bathroom was very large with a seperate bath, double shower & twin sinks. We were staying on half board but we got complimentary water in the room because we were raddison members. Breakfast had a reasonable selection but it became a bit repetitive. I would've liked to see different things such as French toast offered on different days. The evening buffer was a bit hit & miss for me. There was general indian/maurtian spicy food available but unfortunately I struggle with this. I would recommend the hotel publish in advance the buffet themes for the week then you can choose to prebook at the other restaurants if it is not to your taste. We did find that the prices in the hotel were a little steep compared to outside the resort. Sunbeds were plentiful we never had a problem. Service was very good. I had a manicure, pedicure & head massage at the spa. Treatments were good. Unfortunately my nail varnish started to peel off on day 2. I went back and they redid it free of charge. We were celebrating my husbands birthday during the holiday. The hotel arranged a special meal for us on our last night at the golf club which was lovely. They even brought him a cake. We had a cyclone hut whist we were there. Staff were reassuring & we received regular updates on the TV in our room. The TV was a little frustrating. Few channels available & the ones we had were defaulted to French. We found out how to change language but it would randomly change back mid view. The setting & beach were lovely. The pool was a very comfortable temperature & a good size for a swim. I would recommend mosquito repellent & we found it very hot & humid. The air conditioning in our room was a welcome relief. Take a good sunscreen because even when it's windy & cloudy you burn easily.

We were there to celebrate our honeymoon. Shikka welcome us very friendly and was always helpful. The kitchen and restaurant teams are amazing, always lovely and helpful. Specially Sunita and Rekha, everyday with theire lovely smiles. They had always gluten & lactosefree food for me. The food was very good. Also Vinod and Ramesh, they have interest to give us the best and that we are having a good time. They always told us: "if you're happy, I'm happy" We had also the best room maid, Jennifer, from the Housekeeping. She's lovely, very helpful and our room was always very clean. We felt like home. Thank you sooo much guys. We had a wonderful and unforgettable time there. You'll stay in our hearts. And we'll come back someday

Just back from 2 magical weeks at Radisson Blu Azuri, no the hotel isn't perfect and does have some issues, but what makes it special are the amazing staff. So I'll start with the good points - Spacious rooms with a huge bathroom and shower, the food is good with themed evenings, gluten free options and lactose free milk, the staff are amazing, Ramesh Joshua Jason Firaj Vishal and many more made us feel welcome and like a member of family, Blackrock restaurant the Italian and The Nine, are amazing dont miss them out! The not so good points - birds in the dining area, mould growing up the wall and wobbly tables, the pool is nice although there is a lack of loungers, although they have put some down on the sandy area, they aren't as comfy as the ones by the pool, there are areas of the pool which need some maintenance, but the idea of having decking rather than tiles around the pool is great! Our room was kept clean but during the 2 weeks there our bed linen wasn't changed once, and don't know when they last pulled the beds out to clean under them. They really need to address the hygiene issues in the food area, they have put out extra nets over the food but saw cakes crawling with ants, birds on the bread, mosquitoes on the prawn crackers and hair in the ice cream. The beach is ok not the best by any means. The lagoon area is murky so didn't swim in the sea. There is free water activities available at the boat yard, paddleboards, pedalos, glass bottom boat and they will take you out to the coral area for snorkeling, but the boat they took us out on was the glass bottom boat and was not fit for purpose for snorkeling, the ladder to get back on the boat was not good, I really struggled to get back on the boat and ended up being dragged back on, beware there are tiger fish which are poisonous. There are a lot of drinks available on the all inclusive, but as usual premium brands are chargeable, and some cocktails. The mini bar is well stocked, they tried to charge us for a pot of pringles which we didn't have but they was easily sorted. Entertainment in the evening is hit and miss, had a couple of evenings where they just played music which really wasnt suitable for a hotel! Thats not me being a 'Karen' its not acceptable to listen to music that refers to sex etc in a family enviroment. Overall I probably wouldn't return to this particular hotel, the staff are amazing but they really do need to do something about the hygiene.

Overbooking - despite 3...4 emails to the hotel, I was moved to another hotel for 1 day Lack of hygiene - you can share food with sparrows or even eat after them. No cover for fresh pancakes just cooked. The hotel is under renovation, you may encounter construction vehicles on the beach and enjoy the bad smell there. And the beach is really dirty. A lot of sea-grass. I have a lot of pictures about all these points

Hotel is in the North of the island it is a small resort in well maintained grounds. Room we booked was a small bungalow with own plunge pool, room was big spacious, large bathroom with walk in shower, room was lovely but tired in places. There is a central dining room and bar serving food and drinks however all inclusive is not all inclusive only local drinks supplied the rest have to be purchased. Breakfast and lunch lovely with good selection although evening gets extremely busy , however evening meal choices could have been better , so busy one night we couldn’t find a seat and had to go back later , dining room could be bigger . Staff are helpful and attentive and very friendly Beach area is lovely but more sunbeds needed, activities on offer are good, canoeing, glass bottom boat are just a few to mention. Every Wednesday the hotel runs a free shuttle to Flacq market this is well worth doing we loved it, also paid trips out can be booked at reception to around the island , South of the island tour amazing thankyou to Ahmed for such a great tour Black rock is a small separate restaurant on site which can be booked there is a good set menu but you are given an allowance by the hotel against the a la carte selection Big downside here at present is the building work being carried out it’s quite disruptive, angle grinding and hammering with dust everywhere all around the pool area it’s not good Overall we enjoyed our stay it could have been much better without the building work going on and more information given

Nice atmosphere with excellent staff. We hade great service! Thank you Bhava, Innesh,Josh, Suraj,Sahil,Kunal and Yansley, keep up the good work👍

We recently stayed here with three young children including a baby. Whilst a little out of the way, the resort is beautiful, with easy access to the beach and decent amenities. The resort is on the small size, which means it's easy to get to know the staff, all of whom we're friendly and helpful. The children were particularly enamored with a number of the staff who always went out of their way with the children to ensure they had an enjoyable time (and food they would eat). Vinay in particular was outstanding throughout our stay, always ensuring we had everything we needed for the baby including arranging extra water bottles for us so we could make up the baby's milk. He always followed up to make sure requests had been delivered upon and ensured we had his number in case there were any difficulties. He is exactly the type of person you would want taking a leadership role if you were running a hotel. There was a good choice of food each day, with different themes in the evening and the kitchen staff were accommodating to requests for other options. The resort offers a free shuttle on a Wednesday to central Flacq Market, which is worth utilising and there are a number of varied activities each day.

Great resort, quite with excellent staff and a friendly ambience we came for our anniversary and haven’t been disappointed, the hotel is on point for us. The rooms are clean, the outdoor areas are kept immaculate and the food is good. There is a nice private beach to spend some quite sun soaked hours soo has been just right for us.

Arrived late morning and didn’t wait long for our pool room. Check in very efficient. We were in room 1908 which didn’t disappoint. Yes it was tired in places however I believe these rooms are to be renovated from end of April. Room Bathrobes, slippers and toiletries supplied along with other toiletries. Very large spacious room with ample storage. The shower room and storage area had a shared door! Very random but quickly got use to it. Safe free and easily operated. Bed huge, felt like I was sleeping in a different postcode from hubby 😊. Fridge in the room well stocked, some items chargeable, non chargeable items replenished daily. Plunge pool area cleaned daily however furniture definitely needs replacing. Beach Small private beach, cleaned daily of sea grass. Water shoes recommended. Free pedalos, canoes, kayaks, glass bottom boat and snorkelling platform. Boat and platform get booked up very quickly. Sea plane available at a charge, hubby did this with Daniel the pilot (also with Ronnie in tow 🤣) He throughly enjoyed it. Staff at the activity booth very friendly. Bar service available to the beach if required. Restaurants Main buffet, good selection with great service, Easter display was amazing. Staff very attentive. The 3 others, you received credit per person. We only had to pay extra at the Nine. The Nine, stunning location food good, huge portions. Cafe Gioia, great service again ( remember Annan. the tiramisu an anagram of Mauritius 🇲🇺🤣🤣) . Black rock, thank you for making our anniversary special. Grounds and gardens kept immaculate. Spa, gym and spa pool we did not use, however good area for relaxing. Staff I have to say all staff we interacted with were very helpful, friendly and could not do enough for you and really contributed to making our holiday. Big shout outs to all staff in all areas from bar, restaurant, reception, cleaners and gardeners but especially below.
