Having been in the InterContinental Resort Mauritius for one week I have to commend the resort for outstanding aspects concerning my stay there: an attentive reception, a wonderful room (where admittedly it probably helps to be a long time member of the group's free customer relations program called Priority Club) and a perfect resort with, believe it or not, 4 different theme restaurants in which the half board packages are mostly credited in a very generous way unknown to me from other places.
The main breakfast and buffet diner hall could be a touch brighter and/or with more attractive interior ... design but, again, very good buffet food and a dedicated staff make you still feel comfortable.
Special highlights in the resort's evening entertainment are the huge open air party buffet diners in an attractive on-the-beach atmosphere - heaps of work before and after the event for the staff.
The internet (WIFI with a router in my room) worked well - different from many other expensive hotels worldwide where the rates are sometimes ridiculous and sadly the WIFI reception is, too.
Management is always present, attentive, charming and thus also provides a good host and hospitality model to their staff. So alltogether a very nice place run with much professionalism and dedication from everybody involved, where you feel appreciated and all that in a wonderful resort ambience. read more

We had the first time christmas in the 'south' spent. It was simply dreamlike.
As we already arrived, the lobby, the view of the see etc.
The service the intercontinental was terrific and simply not to exceed. The buffet for breakfast in the main restaurant left nothing to be desired. Senso restaurant we have really enjoyed, as you here completely relaxed and in all peace breakfast. Especially but the varied evening buffet enthusiastic. The food was heavenly. Especially the fish and the seafood, the indian and asian offer, the desserts. Just about everything was perfect. The very friendly staff was ... sensational. She were all very friendly, accommodating and very helpful, which one in Germany often very much missed. Especially arnaud, Kevin and Kathrin (catherin ) at the front desk and Sam and arvin at the cocosbar at the beach have cared for us cared. Also the other staff were always very accommodating and friendly (gardener, housekeepers etc.) The rooms were very lovingly with flowers. Every day we found other artwork on our beds. We felt like we were 'king'
Although the complex was fully booked, we found always vacant chairs at the beach or by the pool. It was everything is so spread out, that one not at all the feeling had, that the hotel was fully booked. The location of the hotel is for all recommendable, the a relaxing and quiet beach vacation prefer.
All rooms had view of the sea and the hotel was directly at the beach.
Especially for our kids it was a dream. You have felt very comfortable and wanted not any more home.
Although the hotel a bit off the beaten path from the center is (the you know yes, before you a hotel bay) can you enough excursions undertake. Besides there are at the beach enough leisure offers, like for instance diving, water skiing etc.
The vacation was so perfect. We would like to again for the lovely time and will one day again to Maritius return. read more

Hi, we had a deluxe rooms with half board. At first I was skeptical, as I the reviews little fear made, but afterwards I must say, totally unfounded! The rooms were very tastefully decorated and clean! The food was very good, too good-) always fresh and various themes buffet and there were still many other restaurants to choose from. The staff are very friendly and extremely accommodating! Which I with drawbacks said: room - everything was great, just it was a light bulb burned out or a lamp depends on a bit crooked, nothing to upset, I think and ... not at all for the price! Staff: -very friendly however sometimes a bit disorganized, but what they again wet with their friendliness:-) read more

No 5-star -quality, definitely not.
The beach offers hardly any the possibility, direct into the water to go, really swims is here not possible. For families with badefreudigen children completely inadequate. If you want to unlimited entrance to the sea were suitable à la Karibik-Advertising hopes, is bitter disappointed. Who merely at the beach beach chairs and not in the sea swim, OK.
Furthermore come in the hotel many very large and loud groups under, because the hotel the city's largest ballroom the island has. Consequently, it tourists here honestly hard, peace to find.
The staff are very hard-working, but ... unfortunately very badly trained and sufficed definitely not international five stars standard.
On the first glance seems the hotel okay to be, but in the detail it in every corner and end. A great shame and the money unfortunately not worth. read more

The food in the main restaurant is more than to desire, extremely much service staff, nevertheless no good service, spraying from mosquito-Exterminator (by the restaurants) shortly before the dinner! Cleanliness in the bathroom leaves much to be desired - especially a Naßpflege of soil indexed. Check inDuration much too long. Were only after repeated Ask informed, that we 3 hours in the lobby to sit. A shuttle busThe service in the capital would be a good innovation for bad weather at short notice Ausflugsoptionen to offer. Reservations in the restaurants a bit confused, no Reservierungsannahme despite free places. In the ... main restaurant the hasty service a nice evening not possible. The bill will be immediately after the cleared presented. All inclusive says not all inclusive (Pepsi in the price for the journey included, Coca-Cola not)-this is but not notified.
Through and through a slightly not particularly good, a little work points of criticism and a good vacation there is nothing more in the way. read more

Beautiful generous laid out facilities. As we could tell, all room with a view of the sea. The hotel and the garden area are very tidy. In the hotel are all verpflegungsvarianten bookable, in all-inclusive there is no small band at the arm, so you have to each visit to the dining facilities (bar or restaurant) with name and room number quit.
The check in takes place only from 14 o'clock instead, depending on the quantity of angekommenden guests it is in a few hours protract. So a deduction. read more

Many faults, in a five star hotel not should be!
Already during the check in we had to after the overnight flight from 9 hours until 15 o'clock on our room wait, although the hotel was not fully booked!
Often missing towels, toilet paper, hair dryer in the hand explodes, air conditioning canceled... And so on!
The food had no 5-star standard.
Also the beach was only with Bandeschuhen to celebrate.
We wait today the written confirmation of map of the hotel, these whole flaws said and he promised the matter to adopt!
We would definitely not this hotel recommend. read more

At first glance the lovely area and full facilities but not well-kept and the furnishing run down
room and decor OK. Upholstery on the furniture and the bathroom was filthy- black mold in the entire
shower area and on the ceiling.
breakfast buffet an impertinence- rotten tables are provisional containers fruit, yoghurt, muesli, sausage and cheese without any Cooling offered. The dishes were covered only temporarily and corresponding there were plenty of small Fly covered.
the chairs and tables in the buffet the restaurant are in very poor condition-full of bird dirt, cushions were missing completely and the table are ... because of totally unstable and lack of glass unsteady.
the culinary highlight the theme buffet ' Caribbean night '-were grilled hot dog sausages and mini burgers read more

for our stay were 460 guests in the two-story, modern and very well maintained hotel complex (maximum occupancy: 500 guests) and nevertheless you are never on hecticness, Crowds or even noise trip advisor. It was always a relaxed atmosphere with plenty of space for privacy.
the majority of the guests came from France or the Indian area. Other nationalities you met only occasionally at.
the beach in three small Bays and, even though the few beach chairs in a pleasant distance from each other were you got to everyone time of day a free beach chair. Who peace and relaxation ... between trips and island-actions are looking for, is right at home here. Who however rabid clean is, should here far remain. We liked the'comfortable' atmosphere and the fantastic all around service( drinks and snacks were gladly the whole day to the beach chair brought) so very enthusiastic, that without any effort over a few Vogelspuren on the beach chairs or to late way removed dishes at the beach way could see. Just not everything exaggerated perfect was, made the stay in an otherwise gladly times stiff five star hotel the luxury-class so wonderfully Ungewungen and normal! read more

Of Al we after the but a bit longer flight and the shuttle (. Http://www de Mauritius-taxi. 40 euros) arrived at the hotel, we were greeted by a very spacious lobby held first, thanks to your opened architecture the direct view of the sea releases. At the front desk we were concerned to find a place in the lobby lead, where we had a delicious welcome drink and the notification with us immediately and friendly was carried out. Then we were on our suite lead and it was just wow! Very tastefully equipped and with a direct view of ... the sea and three balconies which two visible! The beach is just like the whole area was super well-kept and very spacious. Although the hotel was fully booked, it was very quiet at the beach. The beach chairs were plentiful and available to abounds. Drinks and food were brought directly to the pool chair. Moreover, there was a large pool and a smaller heated pool. For the culinary needs are ample relaxation. You can either at the large buffet in the main restaurant breakfast or a bit more comfortable, a la carte, in the seafood restaurant with a view of the sea. Lunch is also available in these two restaurants. For dinner opens a choice of Indian and Asian restaurant. The choice was made extremely difficult for us all restaurants great service and top service offered. So in a nutshell very delicious were. Since we had only booked breakfast, we had to keep us not on the menu, but the prices were slightly upscale (about 50 euros per person you should plan). The leisure area of wellness, gym, restaurant, several bars, small shopping mall to the boathouse and tennis court. For golf enthusiasts there is in the neighboring hotel a huge large golf course. We especially the boathouse used, where water skiing, snorkeling, glass bottom boat, pedal boats, windsurfers and small sailboats including. The hotel lies unfortunately somewhat isolated, so that one taxi, rental car, Scooter or bicycle dependent on it. The hotel registered taxis are not cheap. Therefore we first bicycles lent, but in the heat of the sun not the cleverste idea. It was with the scooter much better and the trip to grand Baie and pamp Elmo usses was a success. Taxis at the hotel are clearly too expensive, so we went on a trip to the south with our taxi driver from the airport (day trip 65 euros) which was also great. Very recommendable is also a catamaran trip, which we on the beach (also referred to as with Nicolas Kent) had booked us the Bacardi feeling brought. I would particularly like to mention the bar and sugar cane the Barracuda bar. The people who work there have the vacation with its great mixed cocktails were made and their super nice and opened the sort of I-icing on the entire package. Special thanks to Ashley Ravi us! Many thanks to Vikash from the Ambassador service, of any concern to support it. We are with a lot of sadness after two weeks' time in the cold Germany relaxing and a wonderful vacation behind us. Many thanks to the whole staff of the hotel, which have all contributed! Great team! read more

If you are looking for a quiet and relaxed vacation you are looking for in Mauritius, is right at home here. Although the hotel was fully booked, you noticed here from nothing and could relax in peace and quiet on the beach. The rooms are great equipped (free-standing bathtub, großern flat screen television with second screen in the bathroom and so on) and very clean. The quality and variety of the food in the various restaurants were very good. The staff were always friendly and accommodating. A special praise goes to the German resort-manager Nico and his team at the ... front desk, to questions and requests a opened Listen and ready to help you were, when we needed help. One was always endeavors, guests a pleasant vacation to be designed. The negative reviews of the hotel we couldn't understand. If you're just looking for deficits, should rather stay at home. Small drawbacks like a broken hair dryer or similar were taken care of immediately. That opened construction the one or the other colorful bird during the day in the dining room lost, is quite normal and Mauritius was for us rather than amüsand annoying. Since almost around the whole island is a coral belt rolls, here as in many other hotels the bathing possibilities limited, but that didn't bother us much. An artificial island laid out the beach was very clean and well maintained and was in our opinion the best in balaclava. We booked with FTI trips to the south, the north and a boat tour on the East Coast. The south and the East Coast were great; the north we would continue with a taxi or rental car on your own. Annoying it was, that you buy in the shops was overpriced, instead of locals shops and markets to visit. Finally, there is a large textile factories in Mauritius, because I do not need a branded imported from Europe and the USA. Here would have FTI a matter that needs urgent attention, as therefor other places came as the botanical garden grand Baie and too short. The weather in November was very pleasant and well tolerable. We only had one rainy day. If you spend a lot of time in the hotel, which we would all-inclusive recommend (beer about five euro, snacks and cocktails about ten Euros.) there is not all food and drinks all-inclusive costs, but the selection was completely sufficient. read more

I'm always reviews of the hotel and went with 'interest' in this hotel. And. i agree with not so easy as good reviews there was just nothing to complain. Everything positive from the beginning. Some points I can't rate as single traveler, the environment was also not so important for me, I enjoyed this week the varied offers of the hotel. Internet Free Wi-Fi on my own netbook. Drinks with half board adequate. Staff friendly, I get the impression, that a cooperative management and the busy with pleasure in their work.

The hotel was very dirty. After an initial complaint, there was a room change. Unfortunately, we also have new ones Rooms many dead insects and spiders found alive. The entire hotel is strewn with ants and birds, the everywhere leave Spuhren. In the restaurant there were stray cats and birds feeding, so this again and again attracted. The beautiful pool at the beach was only done by families use with children, therefore, you can get no relaxation. Unfortunately we were in the restaurant again and again several spiders on trip advisor. At the Breakfast was very unpleasant the various fruit ... and yoghurts strewn with mosquitoes to see.
