Located on the northwest coast of Mauritius at Pointe aux Piments, Le M\u00e9ridien Ile Maurice<\/a> is a five-star hotel offering an idyllic setting for an unforgettable vacation. Nestled in the heart of lush vegetation and bordered by a sandy beach, the hotel invites you to relax and get away from it all.<\/p>\n

Renovated in 2022, the establishment offers a wide range of spacious, elegantly decorated rooms and suites, all with breathtaking views of the ocean or tropical gardens. The hotel is ideal for families, couples and friends.<\/p>\n

We booked this 6-night stay with our Marriott Bonvoy points to take advantage of the fifth night free<\/a>. We did this during the holiday season between Christmas and New Year’s for a total of 150,000 points instead of $8,200<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Typical prices range from $500<\/span> to $600<\/span> a night, or even $1,200<\/span> during the holiday season.<\/p>\n

Le M\u00e9ridien Ile Maurice<\/a> is located in Pointe aux Piments in the northwest of the island. Its location is ideal for visiting Trou aux Biches, Grand Baie or the small village of Cap Malheureux and its emblematic red-roofed chapel. The famous Pamplemousse Garden is just 20 minutes away.<\/p>\n

It’s an hour’s drive to the hotel from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam (MRU) airport. Read our Air Mauritius review<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We were greeted by hotel staff who quickly took charge of our luggage. We were comfortably seated in the lobby with a fruit juice and fresh towels while the receptionist completed the formalities.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”275549″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The open-plan lobby overlooks the fountain, main pool and ocean. There is a regular evening concert featuring local singers.<\/p>\n

In the lobby, you’ll find the Latitude 20 bar, ideal for a coffee or cocktail.<\/p>\n

We were upgraded to an Ocean Sky junior suite with two double beds even though we had booked a basic junior suite.<\/p>\n

In the room, welcome gifts awaited us: hats, wine, fruit cups and macarons.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”275577″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

All rooms have a bathroom with shower and bathtub.<\/p>\n

A lounge area with a sofa and armchair for relaxing after a day’s visit to the Pamplemousse Garden or a visit to the Land of 7 Colors in Chamarel. However, a lounge table for a drink, for example, is lacking.<\/p>\n

There’s a desk and a cabinet with minibar and safe.<\/p>\n

Finally, we really enjoyed spending time on the balcony enjoying the sunset.<\/p>\n

Breakfast is served buffet-style at the Nomad from 6am to 10:30am. The rest of the time, this restaurant serves international cuisine (lunch and dinner). Breakfast can be enjoyed indoors or outdoors, with magnificent views of the ocean and pool. Outside, however, you need to be vigilant, because if you leave your plate unattended, birds will be on the lookout to bite into your plate.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”275613″ img_size=”large” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The buffet offers a wide range of pastries, hot dishes and crudit\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
