We had a wonderful stay at the Outrigger Mauritius Beach Resort, a beautifully located property opened in 2014. The pools are well-maintained and inviting, perfect for a relaxing afternoon under the sun. One of the real highlights is the house reef just offshore—ideal for snorkeling. We spotted boxfish, butterflyfish, parrotfish, trumpetfish, damselfish, and Moorish idols, among other species typical of the lagoon around Mauritius.
The resort offers four restaurants, a fitness center, a spa, and comfortable rooms. While some ongoing maintenance is visible (e.g., new air conditioning units that are not yet perfectly integrated into the façade), it’s clear that the resort is investing in upkeep and long-term quality.
Special mention goes to the Mercado Restaurant, where the service was consistently warm and attentive. Sam, the maître d’, runs the dining room with genuine hospitality and professionalism, creating a welcoming and personal atmosphere that really made our dinners memorable.
All in all, a lovely experience—we would happily return.

I love the breaded chicken at edge water buffet at dinner is decent but going to plantation club or edge water is definitely better. Staff are really nice. Some rooms are quite far away from the main pool and some rooms have really bad TVs and bad air conditioning. Highly recommend to do some trips to make the stay better and also it is very good for photos. I love chicken nuggets and these were very good except for just one day at the blue bar they weren’t as nice but otherwise they are so good. Pool is massive and water slide is tiny so don’t expect much of that. Breakfast is yummy I loved the hot chocolate delux. They all have football teams here so you can ask them about it. There is also a small football pitch (two of the small goals on grass) and beach volleyball. Get good spots for pool seats bring floaties/ lilos for the pool also get water guns. There are no surfboards but there are standup boards, kayaks and other thing.
I really like the gym stuff at 8:30 as the team there is really nice and it’s really fun. Yarvin (I couldn’t really read it) was so nice at the plantation club. Not POV of old people/ adult.
Overall I like it and the nuggets, please reply to me managment and also I think there should be bikes for all the guests to cycle around everywhere.

Outrigger Mauritius Beach Resort - Honest Review
The Outrigger Mauritius Beach Resort is in need of a significant renovation. The rooms and facilities show clear signs of wear and tear, and overall maintenance could be improved.
On the positive side, service at the restaurant, bar, and reception is generally good, with staff being professional and attentive. However, the hotel has a high number of expatriate staff, particularly of Indian origin, which slightly detracts from the authentic Mauritian hospitality, even though they are polite and efficient.
Dining options are diverse, with buffets catering to various tastes. The beachfront, however, is not ideal for swimming, especially for young children. Guests are better off enjoying the hotel's two pools and the well-equipped kids' club.
A downside was the late check-out fee, which we were charged despite the hotel not being at full capacity. This is uncommon in other hotels in the same area, where late check-out is usually complimentary when availability allows.

I was satisfied with the overall services and restaurant option provided in the resort. I would suggest better to go with half board or full board option while booking as it will be economical on your pocket rather than getting out in any of the restaurant inside resort or nearby. Staffs were friendly, complementary activities are rostered well in advance. However complementary activities have limited occupancy and will be provided based on advance booking. Beach was pretty silent with crystal clear water.
I will not rate it as 5 Star but it’s certainly matches the vibe of 5 star with value for your money.

Extremely Disappointing Day Package Experience at Outrigger
After a wonderful stay at Outrigger in September, I decided to book a day package for my family to celebrate my aunt’s birthday. Unfortunately, this visit was nothing like my previous experience, and it was a major disappointment.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by an intern, and there was no proper introduction to the hotel or explanation of the package. There wasn’t even a place to leave our bags, which was a basic expectation. Additionally, no welcome drink or gesture was offered, which is usually a standard in hospitality.
The service throughout the day was incredibly poor. We had to wait a long time to get our orders, and it felt like there was a clear lack of staff. It was frustrating, especially considering we were a group of 10 and had hoped for a smooth and enjoyable celebration.
For the price of the package, the experience was definitely not worth it. What should have been a memorable and special occasion turned into a frustrating experience due to the lack of attention and service.
I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and works to improve both the service and the overall guest experience. Based on this visit, I would not recommend the day package at Outrigger.
