Residence Potosi

We are currently staying at these apartments on a 18 night stay and have to say that we are very, very happy with our accomodation. The apartment itself ( room16) is very spacious and has every facility you could wish for. The balcony in particular is wonderful with a sea view and adequate furnishing for sitting outside and relaxing. The room has a comfortable bed and a large fridge, a decent bathroom with a hairdryer and also cooking facilities should you want to cook something for breakfast. There is also a pool on the premises with nice comfortable sun beds all included in the price. The room is also serviced and the towels are changed etc. The sister property, the Parmiste Hotel is virtually next door and you can use their facilities but obviously purchasing food or drinks while visiting would be a nice thing to do in return for being allowed access. So in summary, our apartment/ room ticked all the boxes for us, there is also a wonderful security man on the main entrance gate who does a fantastic job of liasing with guests and assisting with any questions. If you are in two minds what to do i can recommend booking this property and it really is very good value for money.

They dont clean the room during the stay or even change towels (only when asking explicitly they bring it 6-7 hours later). The appartment says there is a fully equipped kitchen, but there was no pan at all and also no dish towel, soap or sponge The water kettle plug didnt go in the wall, they had to call the electrician to change the plug first (seriously?!). I asked for a quiet room. They said I have the quiet room. Well, the room was right above the restaurant and at the noisy main road where the bus stops and starts. The pictures let you think you have a view on the ocean, however you only see literally a square meter size of the ocean. The floor is so dirty, when walking once through the room with white socks, they turn black. There is no shampoo, only a soap for hand washing. The only things that worked well was the AC, the hot shower and the wifi. And the location was good.

Friendly staff, good service and clean rooms. The hotel location is great - close to the beach (where water excursions can easily be booked), close to food eateries and close to a big supermarket. We really enjoyed our time in Mauritius and are grateful for the people at Residence Potosi 😊

Was move in two different rooms and awful! No words to express. We didnt go for breakfast. Seems it was an upgrade from the Le Palmiste Hôtel. They refused to refund the stay. We were there only for 1 night for bed and breakfast attending a conference somewhere else.

We stayed there 3 weeks in january- enjoyed every single day! Nice big room with a fantastic balkony where you can drink your mornings and afternoons coffee and see the sun going down. Choose the 3. floor- the seavew is better. Very close to the beach- just 3 min walking, everything is in a god walking distance, so you do not beed a car. Bus stop is also just close by to every direction, if you want to go for a small trip to Port Louis or another nice beach. Very kind stuff on the reception and cleaning ladys always helpfull. One of the best thing her is at you can use the facilities at the Palmiste Hotel near by, wich is oned by the same company. They have many swimmingpools and nice palmgarden. All inn all it was a perfct vacation and we recommend it to all who do not want to stay at a hotel and eat there every day and evening. We tried every day some different restaurants in the small village and were absolutely satisfied with the food and prices in Trou aux Biches. There is an Italian, Chinese, Japaneese, Indian restaurant, some other with Mauritian specialities - actually many nice places to eat, without to cook at the appartament, but you could if you want. Take your own beach towels, the beach is nice and long, the water is perfect to swim or dive- clean, warm. It was just great !!!!

The staff and cleaners Aarti and Swastika were very helpful and effecient, also the reception were very helpful as on request booked a restaurant and also tried to find out extra information on trips. The staff were always smiling and asking how they could help.
