The Ravenala Attitude

Mauritius, Indian Ocean

Virgin rating

The hotel

All-suite and all-inclusive, the Ravenala Attitude is styled in contemporary, colonial and tropical hues. With an open-plan, no boundaries design, the restaurants and bars flow seamlessly towards the pool, gardens and beach beyond. But it’s not all about appearances — it goes deeper. Its ‘Culinary Voyage’ takes you from Asia to Italy in nine restaurants, seven of which you can sample as part of your All-Inclusive package. You can tuck into 'Granmamas' Mauritian fare at Kot Nou, street-food takeaways on the beach at Taba-J, and enjoy the romance of the floating Riviera restaurant. The kids' clubs provide various fun activities, whilst the Sport Village and Boat House offer endless diversions, from kayaking along Rivière Citron to riverbank yoga. And the hotel's ‘Otentik’ concept gives you a true insight into Mauritius, in cookery classes, local music, a self-guided tours app, and a weekly ‘Otentik Bazar’, with all profits from the ‘made in Mauritius’ goodies going to the craftspeople. You can even dine on ‘Otentik Dinners’ with locals in their homes. This charming resort is great for families, with large rooms and a range of activities, whilst couples will love staying in the Executive Seafront Adult Suites in the adults-only section.

We loved our stay here, the resort is well kept and our room was very spacious. The restaurants were lovely and we enjoyed all of our meals - our favourite was Madame Ming. We also paid for the Riveria restaurant which was worth the money and we paid for the seafood lovers candlelit menu, this was also very good and based on the beach. The pools were huge and always sunbeds available. It was very quiet around the pool until the afternoons. The beach is shaded in the mornings but again can always get a bed at any time of day. We used the free water sports which were amazing to be included in the all inclusive package. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Read less

No changing room for Day package. Some employees are nice while others are rude. The food from the Mosaik Restaurant is average but the parties from Bistro for tea time were delicious. The activities like Kayak and pedalo were fun and entertaining.
