The hotel

Long Beach just oozes cool — it combines carefree, elegant living with a blend of contemporary architecture and tropical landscape. A playground resort by day and night, it's all about music, art, food and wellbeing. At the heart of the resort is the piazza, with restaurants, bars and shops surrounding the chic central square. If sports are on your agenda, you’re in luck, there’s plenty here to tempt you both on land and sea. Located on the longest, widest stretch of white-sand coastline in Mauritius, it’s a beach lovers paradise. While away the hours by one of the three pools or in a hammock under the shade of a palm tree, or be pampered at the Cinq Mondes Spa with its relaxation area overlooking the gardens and pond. The dining options are varied at Long Beach, ensuring all tastes are catered for. Kids have their own club, with activities including arts and crafts, plus beach barbecues around the campfire for the teens.

First and foremost a simply stunning hotel. Beautiful architecture, spacious rooms, well decorated and a fantastic ocean view. The beach itself is also great, clear, warm water and white sand. Staff- the best I have ever had at any hotel around the world. Particular shout outs to Kumar and Pamela, and also a young man working the main bar in the evenings whose name I didn’t catch. They are all so incredibly helpful, polite, warm and friendly people. Room- no complaints. Huge comfy bed, great shower, plenty of storage space, immaculately clean. Balcony had a nice sew view . Minibar generously stocked. Food- probably the only thing that needs improvement. Breakfast at the main buffet is good, but often during busy times it is a bit hectic and doesn’t feel like a 5 star, with long queues at the eggs station. the dinner buffet is also somewhat repetitive, with the same options being offered each evening. That said. There is an outside kiosk in the day time for lunch which serves a delicious alternative menu, including bento boxes. The Chinese alacarte is disappointing - service incredibly slow and the food average. The Italian alacarte on the other hand was delicious. All in all probably more 4* food. The adults only pool is great for those wanting more peace and quiet , as the main pool can get very loud with the children and all the activities. I would definitely recommend a visit to long beach. I had a wonderfully relaxing time all in all, and felt like I got great value for money. Also - bring cash for tips! If you select all inclusive you don’t need money for food and drinks but make sure you have some for tips as the staff work incredibly hard, especially when you’re at the beach and they have to walk a long journey to come and take your order.

Hotel was very nice, food was good. The lagoon was nice for swimming. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Especially Vicky in the bar, and sports crew Astrid, Tony, and Kursley. We were playing volleyball everyday. Also, Jason from the evening entertainment is great. They made our vacation perfect!
