Accommodation in Mauritius: The Residence

Architecturally, this is the most impressive hotel on the island. The spacious, beautifully built building is lovely to relax in and the airy pool bar is fantastic.

Food & Drink

The Residence prides itself on its cuisine and guests have a choice of three restaurants.

The Dining Room restaurant, made entirely of wood and delicately positioned overlooking the pool, is an open invitation to discover the thousand and one flavours of the sophisticated cuisine. The Verandah serves lunches around the pool and is the perfect place for a light snack.

Finally, The Plantation, a planter's house by the beach, offers a wide range of seafood and a selection of dishes cooked with local herbs and spices. The food here is particularly good and it is popular with both locals as well as hotel residents.

In addition to the restaurants there is a spacious bar, whose walls are hung with a fine collection of engravings of scenes from Mauritius's history. This is a great place to enjoy a late breakfast, cup of tea or cocktail in the evening with the live music that is provided until midnight.
