Zilwa Attitude,

Weekend at Zilwa attitude hotel We choose the Zilwa for a birthday weekend and opt for its all inclusive options. We were here 3 years ago and came back. We were surprised once again by the great welcome and positive attitudes of the staff. They are always eager to help and friendly. Plenty of food options and we tried all restaurants and tasted so many dishes. They have sandwiches offer all day and the local Taba J can give you the feeling of local street food. The barmen happily prepared all cocktails that we asked. The rooms gives the vibes of holidays and are well maintained. We are a family who really enjoyed our stay at the Zilwa and can without doubt recommend this hotel for wonderful vacations. Great people here : among them Amrish Jhugroo ,a team leader who is always on the line,guiding positively his staff and also Siva Sewgolam,the front office manager and his entire staff.

This hotel is an excellent experience and one that is just really really good. From arrival to departure your needs are always met, with caring staff at every point of your holiday. The hotel itself is pretty cool, the view from the main bar and lobby is breath taking and you will not be able to stop taking photos of it over and over again. The hotel has its own beach which is split into two beaches with sunbeds and umbrellas made from sugarcane and wood. the other part of the beach is where you can access the Watersport part of the hotel. Paddle boarding, surfing, kayaking all at no cost. The food is brilliant, I think I have put on 2 stone from the trip. With a buffet and 4 restaurants you will always find something you like to eat and something you will enjoy. Rooms seem to be fairly basic but have everything you would want from a tropical island room, air con, big fan, big shower and a balcony, and a mini fridge which you can top up from the hotels tuck shop. The hotel has a no plastic bottle theme which is brilliant. Just be aware of Big John, he means well and by all means he doesn't deliver but we went with a local guide/taxi driver and did the same trips but just cheaper. My wife found him on Facebook page of the hotel so I would recommend looking into that. Overall amazing holiday. We enjoyed it so much we will be returning for a family holiday.

Zilwa has been a fantastic holiday and an unforgetable experience. Stunning grounds and views from the three seperate coves within the hotel grounds. First of all I have to mention one staff member in particular Favour. He is at the main bar SiroKann. A true gent who made my wife and I feel so welcome and left us wanting for nothing. He is a real credit to the hotel and please if managment read this he is a true credit to your establishment. The wow factor starts as you enter the complex, you will know what I mean if you come here. Given the location and traffic you will average an hour or so transfer. And the rooms are available from 1400 thats 2pm on arival. We were very lucky and were in our room by 1300 1pm. So I highly recomend having a pair of swim shorts in your hand luggage so you can head straight to the beach or pool. And grab a bottle of sun cream from your luggage before they are taken by the valet. The rooms are lovely, have a simple clean design, beds in our room were comfortable as I prefer a firmer mattress. So sleep was no problem for me. The food also was outstanding each of the resturants (Mauritian, Indian, Thai, lobster beach) were some of the best food I have had. The main buffet was good enough with a nice selection of meats curries and veggies. Not the most selection I've seen from an all inclusive hotel. But the restaurants more than made up for this by a long shot. There is a little food shop (free for all inclusive) that you can stock up your mini fridge daily. The watersports house offers snorkling and glass bottom boat trips, paddleboards hobby Cats for those that know how to sail. And best of all.. The hotel's own cateraman boat trip is 1800 rupies that about 34 British pounds and includes a whole day with lunch provided onboard, snorkling and chilling on a local island. Plenty of Rum and food vibes it's true value for money. Do bring water shoes. Though I didnt see any sea urchins here, they are about as well as coral the volcanic rock can be very sharp. So bear that in mind. Now I will mention that as a lover of the water and snorkling etc yes you can go on trips to see sea life. However, from the beaches here there is nothing to see, the reef here is very shallow and silty sand again hidden sharp things can catch you out. That being said the sand is still lovely and I didnt always wear shoes just trod carefully. But if you want to snorkel go out on the trips. Not from the shore. There are a few locals who walk the beach offering dolphin and turtle trips. We didnt use them however, saw pictures from other guests and you will literally swim with dolphins and trutles in the wild no cages or crulty here. Just fantastic experiences. We paid via the tour operator to go on a big catamaran out west and saw a pod swimming next to the boat which was an unforgetable moment. There is a great shaded kids pool for babies and toddlers to keep out the direct sun which I thought was a nice touch. Food wise I didnt see

We were very satisfied with our stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, featuring a balcony, air conditioning, as well as a refrigerator and TV. The culinary offerings were impressive, with both breakfast and the evening buffet providing a diverse and high-quality selection daily. A special highlight was the free rental of SUP boards, kayaks, and snorkeling equipment at the hotel's own beach. We would also like to emphasize the hotel's efforts to avoid plastic, which is a very positive attribute. The staff's attention and responsiveness to customer concerns were also outstanding. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay.

We celebrated the birthday of my daughter … awesome experience … from arrival , restaurants and spa … we ate at the beach restaurant .. food was excellent …

My family came to Zilwa for a two-night stay, it was my husband's birthday. It was such a wonderful experience, from hospitality to room cleanliness to food/beverages to activities proposed. Special thanks to Laeticia, Sharmeen for the care and services they provided. Cheers Shaziah Rumjaun

It was a great trip. They were really helpful with late check out and gave us a good room. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Amazing food and beautiful landscape. The room was great and clean. The beach is nice too. It was a great holiday.

The Kot Nou restaurant was amazing. Traditional Mauritian food and Kuipy, Mohin and especially Noorina were so friendly, knowledgeable and funny. Food gets served in trios and duo’s so you can try all the authentic tastes, flavours and cooking. It was nice to have the food all explained to you. Great night, didn’t feel like an all inclusive restaurant at all xx.
