To be fair Anelia Resort is not a poor resort but it is also not nearly as good as it is represented. Mauritius is a nice destination but not the idyllic location(s) you most often see portrayed. Anelia is very much a 'pretend paradise'. The 'beaches' are almost entirely man-made, reed-umbrella fringed, seafronts skirted by constructions of volcanic rock breakwaters which prevent direct access to the sea. The sand is very gritty and a small beach allowing seafront access leads to a sea with a coral reef offshore. Regrettably the coral has died, the hard, sharp remnants littering the sea-floor. This applies to most of Flic en Flac's beaches. Food is OK but very repetitive with little choice. Staff are plentiful and individually marvellous but not well organised it seems. Rooms would seem to be very nice in the main but beware if you're a Brit. As Brits are a significant minority its no coincidence the smallest, oldest, to-be-updated rooms are given to Brits. Our package allegedly included a room upgrade but it took a long fight to achieve it. All-Inclusive is confusing and not extensive at all. It also doesn't start until 10.30 and ends at 22.30. No late night chatting with friends here. Most obvious was the very particular leaning toward French (c 75/80%) and Asian (15/20%) other EU and British guests did not exceed 5%. This has not been a problem elsewhere but room allocation, service, tours of site, entertainment and information was directed toward the French and Asian guests. Not all facilities such as watersports are available. The 'Spa' is simply a small, open, waterfront shed. Due to the beach issue, the pool area can be crowded, rowdy and noisy. While most people used headphones and earbuds, youths played their own music quite loudly. It was alsou disappointing to see staff serving beers to up to 25 young people in the pool. The pool is not large enough for it to be taken over by the equivalent of 18-30 Group activities. Mauritius is very commercialised, quite wealthy with lots of development. It is not at all comparable to the likes of Antigua (for example) which is honestly unspoilt and a true paradise.

The hotel ambiance were nice food quality was good with good music at night, pool were nice with great view of sea. All over it was great experience with anelia resort. Breakfast quality was also cool with great Indian food. Staff were nice..

Let me start with the positives: location is excellent at the top end of the beach and a short stroll into Flic-en-Flac. Staff are friendly, pools are good, food was a good standard, lots of fresh fruit and the Currys were excellent in the main. Gardens are nice, gym is a good size and the small private beach is a bonus. Air-con in the rooms was very good as well. So what’s to improve? The hotel tour on arrival was a lazy half-baked job that showed the lady clearly couldn’t be bothered.. Housekeeping is slack. Beds are made and water bottles are topped up but anything else is a bonus. One day our towels were removed and not replaced. If you didn’t leave your cup by the kettle it wasn’t washed/replaced. The empty sachets of tea/coffee were left. One day we had the please make my room up sign on so they left us alone 🤣. I think they just saw a sign and thought it’s a do not disturb…so we left it off and it was fine. Not once in 10 days was the path outside our garden bungalow swept despite being covered in fallen leaves and flowers. Made it hard to NOT stand on a snail when coming back from the restaurant. No hot water on day one and after a maintenance visit got used to tepid/luke warm showers. Service in the restaurant was hit or miss despite having plenty staff on. One night we had a full meal and no one approached us to offer a drink despite trying to catch the waiters eye. So we went into F-en-F instead. Often not enough tables for the guests so I recommend picking your times wisely. Our beach waiter only came around once in all the days we were there. The gym is a good size and air-conned but given there was never more than 4 or 5 visitors a day I was surprised one day there were no towels available. The WiFi is ok (not rapid) in the hotel but they need to extend it to the beach loungers. I could pick up the Carolina Villas WiFi and that’s 400m away…That’s it. So 1st world problems I know but little things can make a big difference. They can do so much better with the right leadership.

Anelia Resort & Spa in Flic-en-Flac offers a beautiful setting with stunning ocean views, well-maintained grounds, and a variety of amenities. The infinity pools and beachfront access make for a relaxing getaway, and the rooms—ranging from modern suites to charming villas—provide a comfortable stay. The dining experience is diverse, with multiple restaurants serving a mix of local and international cuisine. The staff is generally friendly and welcoming, ensuring guests feel at home. Many visitors highlight the peaceful atmosphere and the resort’s proximity to nearby attractions. The breakfast buffet is particularly praised for its variety and freshness. However, service quality can be inconsistent. Some guests have reported long wait times at restaurants and issues with room maintenance. There have also been concerns about event planning services, with unexpected costs and miscommunications affecting special occasions. A few reviews mention experiences of selective service, which is disappointing for a resort of this standard. Overall, Anelia Resort & Spa is a great choice for travelers seeking a scenic and relaxing retreat in Mauritius. While the location and facilities impress, improving service consistency would enhance the guest experience. Communicating needs clearly with management before arrival is recommended.

The location was good although not a great deal to explore on foot outside the resort. The Spa was very good too, my partner said her had a lovely massage. Would recommend.

Our stay at the Anelia Resort & Spa was far from the relaxing experience we had hoped for. While the resort boasts a beautiful location near Flic-en-Flac Beach and scenic views, the overall experience was riddled with disappointments. The service quality was inconsistent, with staff at the reception being poorly trained and, at check out downright rude. The facilities were another letdown. The hotel felt dated and in need of renovations and huge amounts of TLC. Our room, 311, on the second floor while having an amazing view of the sea, had maintenance issues. When booking the hotel, we added a comment that were are both in our mid-70s and I walk with the aid of a stick. Nevertheless, we are assigned a 2nd floor room. There is no elevavtor. A request to move was greeted with derision. Dining was equally disappointing. The buffet lacked variety and proper hygiene standards, with birds seen near the food. Limited dining hours and inadequate vegetarian options added to our dissatisfaction. Overall, while the location and views are commendable, the resort’s poor service, outdated facilities, and lackluster dining options make it hard to recommend. We left feeling disheartened by an experience that fell short of its promises.

This was our Honeymoon and I can honestly say we had the most amazing time at Anelia. The staff were all helpful and friendly. The pools were incredible. Not sure if it was because of the time of year, but it was never crowded either! They had a lovely private beach area and even a small snorkeling pool too. The food was to die for! I'm sure we both came home a stone heavier!! Lots of variety and we never went hungry with the amount of food they put on throughout the day! We used the spa which was lovely and I would recommend! It was a very quiet resort, which was perfect for us, but if you want more nightlife and entertainment, this may not be the place for you. We would 100% recommend and would love to come back again soon! Thank you for making our Honeymoon so spectacular

It's a very good resort. Staff were very good and cooperating. Food was good. One of a staff Mr Kavya was a very nice person. Cleanness extremely good. Mauritius is a very beautiful place to spend vacation. Sea facing rooms cozy atmosphere, lush green environment is memorable.

The best hotel in Mauritius to stay at, all the attractions are near by, the view is UNREAL and the staff is extremely helpful. Especially Kavya, he specially took care of us with all of our needs. 10/10 recommend to stay at here. Our honeymoon couldn't get better than this.

The stay and staff were really good. We enjoyed our stay and loved the scenic beach. Definitely recommended for long as well as short term stay. Kavya welcomed us and showed every part of property. We would like to come back again. The vegetarian options in the food are definitely...

The food was really delicious. The consumer service was really kind and welcoming. The swimming's water was at a perfect temperature. The garden was very beautiful, and full of flowers. The people working there were very helpful and always there at hand when something was needed. Overall, it's a great peace and the costume services are great and very friendly towards the costumes and always there to satisfy their needs.

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. A special mention to Kavya, whose warmth and attentiveness truly stood out – he made our stay even more memorable. The service and hospitality were top-notch throughout.

Location is wonderful and the resort has access to a private beach as well, sunset view is worth capturing. Reception staff is quite friendly too. They have some complementary water activities to offer on prebook basis. Food is tasty but they have limited options.
