We enjoyed our week-long stay at Seasense and would give it a 4.5 score if we could. This small 63-room adult-only boutique hotel is beautifully designed and the rooms are well appointed. Service is friendly and attentive, but can be slow at mealtimes. The exclusive beach is quite small and shallow but fine for a splash or a snorkel. The pretty à la carte restaurant is right by the sea, and there was no shortage of loungers, including with shade. The small pool is heated and lovely for a quick dip. The modest spa and sauna is a nice touch. Two issues however. First, noise from the road: the hotel is sandwiched on a small strip or land between the main coast road and the sea. More importantly, we found the food quite variable: occasionally excellent, always presented beautifully, but often bland and under-seasoned and cold. A shame given the reputation of Mauritian cuisine. Also, half the menu items (and nearly all the fish options) are subject to hefty supplements. The buffet night (combined with a free cocktail party for guests) was however enjoyable.

All staff was very friendly and not over the top so you feel very comfortable. We stayed in the Royal Sea suite and the private pool is definitely a wonderful luxury. You are also on the edge of the resort so you get more privacy. Food was great, they accommodate dietary requirements ... nothing to fault. And did I mention the view is just stunning?

Perhaps the most beautiful and comfortable room we’ve ever had in many years if travel. Staff very friendly, but suggest a handout that repeats the large amount of info given on the welcome tour. We missed the dinner dress code and were confused about dining arrangements in general.

Best honeymoon ever!!

The hotel was absolutely stunning and I literally had the best holiday in my life :) The food was amazing and very reasonably priced and the customer service is just phenomenal. This is what t means to be customer centric!! They offer whatever the customers ask for (additional towels, bottle of water) and they go out of their way to make sure we were comfortable.

We were staying at another 5-star hotel before coming to Seasense but the quality of the food, the staff, the rooms and the beach was just miles away. I would love to stay at this hotel again!!

Sunset views from the heated pool.

Superb hotel.Adults only therefore quiet and relaxed.Infinity heated pool with stunning sea views a definite X plus factor.Service 10/10.Room 10/10.
Food trendy and good -perhaps lacking a tad on the ethnic creole flavors.Beach outstanding,clean and extensive.
Only two questions to ask: 1) Did you enjoy and 2) Would you go back.Yes and Yes.

Sort out your payment system Seascape!

Overall hotel and service great. Good also good. Lack of information in rooms about hotel facilities and how meal packages work - this would have been very useful. On last night we settled Bill and paid for any additional purchases by cash. Late night phone call followed by knock on door to check our payment receipts- felt like we had been trying to leave without paying when we had paid cash on every purchase. Left us with bad feeling and I did mention this on the in room review form but no apology as yet!

Lovely personable new hotel

Newly opened 4 days before our arrival so a few snagging issues like not all rooms had luggage racks or coffee machines. Also our window was not locking but they moved us into a different room relatively quickly. All the staff try very hard to provide great customer service and were most helpful whenever we needed anything. We decided to upgrade our room in celebration of our wedding anniversary and Jason did a wonderful job helping us get a poolside suite and making it a most memorable stay. We really enjoyed the food too, there’s a fairly wide selection for dinner and adventurous dishes. Absolutely loved their foie gras soup, best soup I have ever had and their Mauritian mains were all very tasty! And my husband was particularly excited they had premier football channel! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and felt sad to leave. Special thanks to Jason and all the staff for making it a fantastic stay. Further thanks for the attentative dinner service from Ajay and a tall guy (sorry I didn’t catch your name but you served me the coconut surprise and said I was the first to order it!)

Brilliant staff make up for the problems

We were one of the couples affected by the various issues which forced the hotel to relocate us at Lux Belle Mare for our first night. We were upgraded to half-board for that night and received a complimentary lunch the next day at the SeaSense. And may I record our thanks for these gestures.

However, may I now point out that the staff were absolutely brilliant - they did everything possible to make sure the guests could see they were doing their utmost to overcome all the hotel's teething issues.

We only lasted one night in room 102, before it started flooding, so we were moved to 107. On our day of departure, we had both water and electrical problems in room 107, but again, the staffs' responses to these problems do not deserve any criticisms.

Apart from all that, if these things hadn't happened, what's our opinion of the SeaSense?

In time, it should be a very very good Boutique Hotel - somewhere between 4* and 5*. The buffet breakfast was very good and sufficient and included a hot cooked eggs dish of your choice.

Most luxurious rooms are a stone's throw from the sea and little sandy beach. Beach loungers and thatched shading are provided as is waiter service.

A much better stretch of beach is a couple of headlands away in the direction of Palmar - when we went it was completely deserted.

But I cannot overstate how well the staff attend to their guests.

Some issues overridden by gr8 staff and setting

Arrived two days after the hotel opened so naturally there were teething issues, that holds back a perfect rating. In addition some things weren't ready to go (limited water sports whilst equipment arrived/limited spa availability as work was completing) However, the setting is beautiful and rooms open up directly to the beach. The staff were fantastic and helpful when things went wrong. Day by day we saw the changes in decor etc which was lovely. The food was very tasty. Would love to come back in a month or so as I imagine it will be great with the team there. Special mention to Jason and Satish who were very helpful.

Uns hat das Hotel sehr gut gefallen. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Besonders war auch die Qualität der Speisen und der Blick aufs Meer beim Essen. Das einige was hätte besser sein können war der feuchte Geruch im
Zimmer und teilweise ist das Bad (besonders die Fugen) etwas Renovierungsbedürftig. Zudem wird am Strand sehr viel Seegras angespült. Dennoch kann man im Meer ganz normal schwimmen. Wir würden die Unterkunft dennoch jederzeit wieder buchen, da sie so erholsam ist.

Nous avons eu la chance de séjourner dans plusieurs hôtels au cours de nos voyages, mais celui-ci restera pour nous une expérience exceptionnelle.

Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été touchés par l’accueil chaleureux, le professionnalisme et l’attention sincère de toute l’équipe. Nous nous sommes sentis privilégiés du début à la fin.

L’hôtel est magnifique : plage paradisiaque, piscines superbes, chambre luxueuse où chaque détail est pensé avec soin. Les petites attentions quotidiennes, les décorations florales et l’ambiance générale nous ont énormément touchés.

Un immense merci également au spa, qui a été une véritable découverte pour nous puisque c’était notre tout premier massage. Les praticiennes ont de l’or dans les mains. Leur douceur, leur professionnalisme, leur gentillesse et l’atmosphère apaisante du lieu nous ont permis de vivre un moment inoubliable.

Nous avons adoré l’emplacement à Belle Mare, plus sauvage et calme, parfait pour se ressourcer. Merci aussi aux équipes organisant les excursions ainsi qu’aux animations de l’hôtel, notamment la soirée barbecue que nous avons adorée.

Enfin, la nourriture était incroyable du petit-déjeuner au dîner, et la propreté irréprochable. Mention spéciale également au parfum de l’hôtel qui restera associé à de merveilleux souvenirs.

Merci infiniment pour cette parenthèse magique à l’île Maurice.

Ein wunderbares und schönes Hotel. Da und dort etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Es wird aber rücksichtsvoll für die Gäste renoviert.

Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit einer Terrasse und direktem Zugang zum lediglich 20 Meter entfernten Strand (eigentlich lag unser Zimmer direkt am Strand). Das war ein Highlight und absolut zu empfehlen. Der Strand ist sehr gepflegt. Alles in allem ist alles sehr sauber und gepflegt.

Das gesamte Personal ist freundlich, herzlich, aufmerksam und sehr zuvorkommend. Vor allem beim Servicepersonal sind uns Jerome und Silvana sehr ans Herz gewachsen.

Die Küche ist hervorragend. Das Frühstücksbuffet am Morgen und das Dreigängemenü am Abend lassen keine Wünsche offen.

In den drei Wochen waren wir zweimal im Spa und haben nebst Sauna auch Massagen gebucht. Shika und Kasana haben uns hervorragend im Spa begleitet.

Eigentlich ist um 11:30 Uhr Checkout. Das Management hat uns aber einen Late-Checkout ermöglicht und so konnten wir vor unserem Abflug die Annehmlichkeiten des Hotels bis zur Abreise am frühen Abend geniessen. Vielen lieben Dank, Youna und dem Management.

Ein Urlaub im Seasense Boutique Hotel & Spa ist wirklich zu empfehlen.

Dårligste fem stjerners hotel noengang!

Vi betalte for 5 stjerners hotel, men skuffelsene stod i kø! I følge Hotels . Com skulle vi han en 110 m2 suite, men fikk 65m2!
Dette må Hotels.com ta alvorlig, da hotellet viste til at feilen lå hos hotels. Com.
Ellers var kjøkkenet og maten maksimalt 2 stjerners. Vi opplevde også at personalet løy, hvilket er helt utrolig i seg!
Ting forsvant fra rommet. Ble påpekt, men ingenting ble gjort!

For å få litt følelse av bryllupsreise som dette var, var vi nødt til å finne andre restauranter å spise middag på. Underholdningen var en gang per uke og da var den mildt sagt dårlig!

Bør nevnes av hotel. Com at dette hotellet nylig var oppdatert fea 3 til 5 stjerner. Men hverken ansatte eller maren hadde fått det med seg!!

Tips! Finn er annet hotel!

Snarare 4-stjärnigt

Ett mysigt boutiquehotel. Det mesta var väldigt bra, men eftersom detta skulle vara 5-stjärnigt har jag lite synpunkter. Det var verkligen beroende på vilken personal man mötte om man fick bra service eller inte. Då vi kom möttes vi av en otrevlig kvinna som varken sa hej, välkommen eller såg till att någon tog hand om våra väskor. Sedan visades vi gudskelov runt av en annan mycket glad och trevlig kvinna och så fortsatte det. Första kvällen vid middagen var outstanding medan personalen en annan kväll glömde allt, kom med drinken till förrätten och vinet till desserten och till och med storgrälade med höga röster precis bredvid oss. Det blev ingen lugn och trevlig middag. Det var stopp i avloppet och luktade unket. En kväll fungerade inte air condition. Inte ett 5-stjärnigt hotell som jag är van vid.

All in all: fantastic!

The resort is beautifully located in a what seems like a private lagune at a stunning beach, good for long walks or runs. As it is on the more laid back east coast you can find it sometimes windy, so it is luckily never extremely hot.
The place exceeded my expectations based on the pictures and impressions I got from the hotel webpage.
Upon my arrival I was already expected, got a warm welcome from the front desk staff, and also the magament was there to say hello. Right after the immidiate quick + personalized check-in I got all necessary information, was shown the resort on the way to my room. Also the check-out was very convenient and easy and I could get a late check-out.
Troughout my stay (10 days) I could experience a staff who really cares about their guests, from housekeeping, restaurant + bar service, front office to the management. Always someone ready to help and serve ones wishes/needs. The front desk was very helpful in planning /organizing some island tours for me. It also was arranged that I could stay one night on the not less stunning Chalets Chamarel (spectacular view).
One gets all 5 Star Hotel amenities, such as daily essentials, complimentary Wi-fi, gym, bikes, local live music at dinner;
I also want to mention the outstanding menu and lovely presentation of the food. Although, it would be nice to have some vegetarian options, which you certainly get upon request.
It was easy to enjoy holidays.
Thanks for a memorable experience!

Fantastiskt hotell på vacker strand.

Underbar resort med hög ambitionsnivå på fantastisk vacker strand. Vi letade länge efter rätt hotell och blev väldigt nöjda med vårt val.

Hotellet är litet, personligt och en plats att verkligen ta det lugnt på. I och med att hela hotellet är nyrenoverat är det en fräsch och modern känsla över hela anläggningen.

Tänk på att det är en resort och att det förutom kringliggande hotell är begränsat med andra resturanger och liknande.

Rekommenderar detta hotell varmt.

Muito bom!

Hotel novo, confortável e com estilo de praia de bom gosto.
Comida de qualidade e com cardápio variado. Há opção de serviço com all inclusive, meia pensão ou só café da manhã. O all inclusive não inclui todos os pratos do cardápio.
Fiquei no regime de meia pensão (café da manhã e jantar). Os pratos são bons e saborosos.
As bebidas são caras e pagas à parte, assim como os lanches disponíveis.
Funcionários gentis e educados, sempre querendo agradar.
A praia é muito bonita, com água com vários tons de azul. O hotel não localiza-se na melhor parte da praia, que fica na minha opinião, cerca de 1km de caminhada para o lado esquerdo. Ali sim, uma paisagem de recife de corais, piscinas naturais e água cristalina de encher os olhos!

nice beach, nice room, but one night no electricity and no water ,so we cannot take shower.
And the most important thing are they are not honest! They try to charge us in different way, they send us the bill before check out, it said we order coconut in the bar that we never visit , it said we took the chocolate from mini bar which we never take. then we explained to the reception and settled.

When I back to home for a few weeks later, we received bank statement, the hotel charge our room rate again, but we paid to expedia already!

Then I report to expedia, expedia said the hotel didn't reply them.Really? it's over one month still no reply?!
Now I hope expedia /hotel can refund to me if they are wrongly charge instead of stealing customer's money from credit card.

otherwise , if ppl want to stay at this hotel should think before u stay, DOUBLE charge! i m not the only one
